Location: Midland, MI | Wasn't someone here into Murga boots? Check out this guitar on feeBay . Seller (guitarget) claims it's a Murga leather Telecaster. What a trip. |

Location: Midland, MI | Great information. I must confess that I find it strangely attractive. What's the story with the pickup configuration? I see an SD bridge pup, but nothing else, although it has a selector. Are there piezos hidden in the saddles? |

Location: Midland, MI | Hrmm, the plot thickens. So, is the switch setup like the Esquire, then, with the caps? That might be mighty interesting. Not that I have any use for a leather-clad tele. But, the way I play I don't really have use for any guitar. ;) |

Location: 6 String Ranch | We made some like this with a tapped pickup. Front switch position was 5000 winds, middle was off and back was 10,000 winds. Maybe this one is the same if it's one of the ones I put together for him? The caps just work on the tone control normally, not like the Esquire. |
