Anyone have a good pic of Chris' Tele Bass?

Post by iamthebassman »

I have the two not-so-great pics from the auction a while back, was wondering if anyone has any better pics of Chris' Fender Telecaster Bass.

I like the way Chris added a bridge pickup and Telecaster control plate for the extra electronics. I think it'd be cool to do a 5-string version of this bass without all the extra holes and a decent bridge......hmmmm :wink:

I am in the early stages of making a lefty copy, I wonder what happened to the pickguard, footage of CS playing this bass shows the guard.

There's a pic in the booklet from Fragile that shows the bass sitting on a shelf behind Chris. In that pic it doesn't have the guard either.
