John Tinsley has been building custom electric guitars, mostly for professionals, for a number of years. Every guitar is a one of a kind custom.
Solid woods, Flame Maple top, mahogany body, three piece back, cavity cover. Maple neck, metal tuning knobs, adjustable truss rod, engraved leather face plate, GFS Hot Rail pickups wired in parallel to be a humbucker in a Strat sized single coil mount--everything top notch.
John builds for the love of it and is a great bass player as well. He has kept his prices low for affordability and his quality standards high.
New this guitar was $2000+
John says this about this particular one of a kind custom:
"Wired like a standard Tele with bridge and neck pups soloed at either end of the switch travel and the two pups combined in parallel for the middle position. If you are playing rock or country, the bridge pup with the tone all the way up will really cut through any mix. If you are playing rhythm and/or jazz, the soloed neck pup with a mild to moderate treble roll off gets some really nice sound, especially on 4 or 5 string jazz chords."
This guitar has not been gigged and has been kept in a non-smoking climate controlled environment. One owner.
