Another $79 for the engraved neck plate and a whopping $279 for the pickguard. $693 spent and I didn't even have anything to bolt them to!  While attending a guitar show down south, the next piece of the puzzle arrived. Sitting in a dealer's booth was the craziest Tele body I had ever seen. Covered in leatherette material, it featured cool tooled designs. It's looks to be the exact same material Fender used on its deluxe Western hardshell case as well as several custom shop amps.

A set of Kluson style tuners provide rock solid performance.
