Everyone needs a crazy thrown-together parts guitar. Why?  Because you never have to stop modifying them! In this episode, I give the story behind my Tele that I have toured all over the world with and changed everything on it except the body's finish. My Frankenstein even has a Joe Glaser B-Bender that I had installed back in 1997. I show a few bender licks, and also share how the large brass 6-saddle bridge changed the tone of it.

1982 Kubicki Tele body with Danocaster soft V maple neck
APC Adder (Neck) Ron Ellis 60T (Bridge)

Amp: 1967 Deluxe Reverb with Celestion V30 speaker
