yep ,- i took an old classic teisco and chopped it up .. not really sacreligious , because as you can see in the last photo in a "before" shot she was on her last leg anyway , i gave her a trim , added an original "awsome " goild foil pick up and a gold bar neck pickup , and with the wiring and the magnets - the entire pick gaurd is basicly a huge pickup . as you can see , and hear in my random playing here , this thing roars ! ,added some clock parts etc gears and togs and some decor and made her a 3 stringer . and put a whammy on her for extra fun ;-)
and gave her new life ;-)
this thing is the bees knees now ;-)
so don't give me flack for choppin a classic ;-)
