    I've just seen this! :eek:


    http://www.e-eufonia.com/bazaga/pag3.htm

    Totally constructed by hand by Bazaga.
    The average body of tele is in ash
    The average body of strato is in alder.
    Strato color sonic blue
    Color tele of 2T sunburst
    Tablet of mastil, Texas tele
    Means tablets and bridge, vintage 62/57
    Average bridge of tele, constructed by hand in massive silver
    Average bridge GOTOH of strato sawed by half.
    Average golpeador of telecaster tortoise
    Average golpeador of "blind" strato Gotoh, without form in tablets
    Average cover of Gotoh wharves
    Average cover of tablet of bridge of tele and average of strato.
    Plate of jack Gotoh (ferrule)
    Bushings (3) of telecaster
    Kluson pins vintage
    Bridge of bone
    Frets medium Jumbo Dunlop
    2 250 potenciomentros CTS k.
    1 rotatory Selector of two positions.
    Selector of tablets of 5 positions CRL
    Painting of polyurethane To the WATER (newness)

    It has been left from two planks, one of alder and another one of ash.
    Same Asi, average plank of palosanto for mastil, and a whole plank stops
    mastil and tuning fork of maple.
    Observese that the heels of the mastil, they are different. One rectum of tele! Owwwwwwwwwwwww! :p
    of maple and the one of palosanto, curved of strato.
    Observese also, the profile of the body of tele in song, and the prefil of
    strato, in blunt and as they are joined both in finished type "ford"
    electronicamente, it has 7 sounds, combining the tablet of bridge with
    of mastil, and the three simultaneously, aside from the 5 positions of the strato,
    everything combined without extra switches, etc.
    Pote of the volume, it is first, the second of tone is the commutator of
    position of tablets, and third, it is the general tone of all the guitar.

    I hope that you like.


    I did an online translation on the text, and this is how it turned out, some dodgy bits, as expected, but not bad actually, the main gist of it can be followed. I've seen a lot worse. Apart from the rectum of tele bit! :D :eek:

    A LOT of time has gone into this rather bizarre match up of a Tele and a Strat. Probably not as strange a concept as some might think. I'm sure lots have thought of it, perhaps even tried it, but this guy persisted. Fender even brought out a hybrid, but then that was a Tele body with Strat style controls.

    I know the idea is to contrast the difference, but personally, I'd like to have seen the same colour, preferably sunburst, on both.

    The headstock is well done. I'd like to know the story of the pickups below the surface, I think from reading above that they're based in the Strat side, and seeing as the controls are figured that way. The joinings at the heel and elsewhere look immaculate.

    Now the only questions remain.....how does it play and sound? Not that he'd be selling it, if he's made it for himself, but anyway, HOW MUCH?
