My New Telecaster
I grew up in a house of 50+ guitars so it pretty hard to not play a guitar, although I was and alwasy will be a drummer playing guitar was like a silly little thing on the side, no pressure no desire to become great it was just to play and pass time.
I’ve alwasy loved the Telecaster, not becuase of it’s history but (I only realised it’s significants looking into this guitar) but becuse it was just a simple cool liking thing.
One day I was looking on marketplace and a $900AUD USA 2011 Tele popped up so I had to check it out, I told Sha’an and an hour later we were on a 3-4 hour drive to Canberra which sounded like a long time but honestly sitting in car with your love reading a new book aloud togteher was a treat and when finally arrived turns out this guy selling this guitar actually builds frankenstien guitars ripping necks off old guitars building his own creations. see pics
You can see the moment we left the studio to pick up the guitar on Sha’an’s youtube at 11:11.
