Shop-Built Tele Copy – Heavy Relic, Serious Tone, PAF Growl

This is what happens when you build a guitar to win tone shootouts and barroom beauty contests. Designed and assembled in our shop, this dual-humbucker Tele-style build has the looks of a hard-lived relic but the heart and bones of a brand-new tone machine. The distressed finish is heavily relic’d—chips, wear, weatherchecking, and all—crafted to make this piece look like it’s been earned.  Two PAF-style humbuckers dish out rich, mid-forward tones that scream with classic rock energy, moan with bluesy soul, and clean up warm and woody when you roll back the gain. Whether you’re chasing Gibbons growl, Allman warmth, or Mayer cleans, this guitar gives up the goods without complaint. This piece isn’t trying to be subtle—it’s bold, brazen, and unapologetically vibey. If you want a unique, stage-ready instrument that blows away anything in the green room and is still noticeable from the 15th row, this one’s built for you.
