My rockin' Tele

How many pics of my LP have I posted?

A lot. An awful lot.

OK, so it's an LP forum, but this '77 Telecaster has been my saviour at God knows how many gigs and studio sessions.

I love my 93 Classic Premium Plus - like you wouldn't believe - but I'll always love this one a little bit more.

Looks a lot like rockabilly pioneer and country legend, Narvel Felts' 1978 Telecaster!

Cool!

P.S. I wonder who the Bigsby guitar belongs to that you can see the headstock of?

I would imagine the photo is less than 10 years old. My guess would be Deke Dickerson.

Narvel Felts Homepage - The Man and His Music - The Official Site

I sent Deke a message to ask him if it was his Bigsby guitar.

Re: My rockin' Tele

Tele's are way cool. I had my hamer, strat, and tele out last night and kept going back to the tele.

Mine is a hybrid that I built in the garage. I'm no Roman but this one is special!

I sent Deke Dickerson a message on myspace to inquire about it. He says the 'Bigsby' headstock in the photo is Ashley Kingman's guitar, it's a Magnatone body with a replacement neck made to look like a Bigsby.

Re: My rockin' Tele

Thanks for the Narvel Felts info and pics. His is very much like mine - although it looks like his has been treated better, depending how old that pic is.

The summer's finally arrived in London, so I took a couple of better pics this afternoon.
