Having been gassing for a Telecaster bass for a while after getting my godin and done my research there appeared to be two choices, G&L ASAT or the new Squier VM Telecaster bass. I had mentioned it to mike at Purple Chili before and he said he had made a telecaster shaped bass before so we got down to discussing some specs

Basically looking at a hybrid of these really. Will be telecaster guitar shaped.
Specs we have agreed are
4 string 34 inch scale
20 fret
Idigbo body (same as the PJ mike built which is up for sale! )
Rock maple neck with tele headstock and wenge fingerboard
Gotoh bridge and tuners plus hipshot d tuner
Aero split pup in the p position
Butterscotch blond body with tort plate and metal control plate
Simples
Think this will be an awesome bass that looks a bit quirky and unique
