Price - £350 collected from Sunderland, or could possibly meet up in Tyne & Wear/North East.

Tentatively for sale is my parts-built Telemaster. I'd love to keep it so there's no great urgency to sell, but I have a hankering for something semi-hollow and humbuckery (possibly Gretsch-flavoured), and need to sell before I can buy unfortunately. If I could afford to keep I definitely would, and would probably just hang it on my wall in the living room to stare at, as it's just coolest looking thing I've ever seen!

It feels great to play, really well put together, and sounds properly raucous. I bought it from @MikeS of this parish, and I believe he got it from another forum member. I hope he doesn't mind me using his pics, as he's clearly a way more talented photographer than I am! (It hasn't been damaged or changed in any way since those pics BTW)

    I'm afraid that I don't buy guitars any more but that's a real interesting beast there! Most appealing.

    If someone would buy my bloody Fender we'd be talking, this pretty much ticks all my boxes!

    Give a man a fire and he's warm for the day. But set fire to him and he's warm for the rest of his life

    This was mine and I must say it is absolutely excellent, it feels a lot more expensive than it is. Brilliant pickups and  The neck is amazing. I’m just not an offset kinda guy really (although I keep forgetting that). GLWTS
