I like it. Looks punk as fuck. Wonder how she balances with the smaller lighter body and traditional upper horn strap button placement?

Right, this occurred to me. The Tele's bound to come off a bit more like a mini/travel guitar than a Stang or Duo or something.

Actually a 'stang is longer than a strat or tele, but not as wide. This thing reminds more of a Rick 320.

When you press the accelerator past halfway it doesn’t actually go any faster, but the engine noise distorts

I can't remember the last time I wanted a guitar this badly.

I think it's funny that when Guitarist magazine (one of the bigger UK mags) reviewed these they mentioned this very forum, but no-one on here noticed or cared.

Yep, they mentioned it in their review last year, but oddly seem to have cut that bit out of the review that is posted on MusicRadar. You can have fun going through old print editions to try to find the reference though!
