Grab a bargain…….though I just can’t get on with Tele’s, I saw it and couldn’t resist.
Bought originally in February 2023, custom spec’d, I’m the second owner
Alder body "Slightly aged" satin finish - has taken on some slight dings and grazes, paint rather than wood.
Grade AAA roasted maple neck/fretboard = Absolutely stunning - shimmers in the light! The action is low but the truss rod is maxed out, though the action is low and easy. Lots more relief can be added but no more taken out. The action feels lower and better than any Fender I’ve owned but just saying.
Aged Gotoh Tuners. Rutters vintage bridye. Bareknuckle Flat 50s.
9.5” - 12” radius, fat D profile neck. Low easy action..
Featured on Grays Instagram (and liked by Graham Coxon - A Gray user himself)
Unfortunately some recent knocks on the bottom of the guitar (Damage from a bad guitar stand as pictured, hence the price (3k new)
Answer to a recent question ……The damage looks to be all top coat paint revealing the undercoat, it doesn’t bother me as it’s a relic’d guitar anyway but to some it might. The back scratch might go a little deeper, that looks like a ding rather than a stand / finish reaction though you can’t see wood. The contour lines on the top are just the top coat again and look cool, in my opinion.
No dings on the neck.
I purchased it from the original owner who was clearing for a purchase, I hate Teles but this looks so good and at the price was a no brainer. Though I love the chunky neck I miss a humbucker so HSS is probably my way forward.

Collection from Congleton Cheshire or Postage £95 via private specialist guitar courier.

    Someone buy this! I actually have three of his axes. They're all in frequent use. The 2018 Emperor I have is probably my number one guitar by use.

    Yes indeed, I’ve seen an Eggle HSS or I’d hang on to this. I think I’ve priced it too low and that has frightened a few punters away. It’s built and plays as good as any Suhr that I’ve owned, as a single cut fan I like the idea of a Tele but I just can’t make then work.
