My new Cole Clark 'Culprit III' semi-hollowbody tele arrived this morning, all Aussie made, Blackwood top, Maple fretboard, very much inspired by Kiko Loureiro's custom Tagima which he used on his 'Universo Inverso' fusion album...

I've already got a Caparison Horus which is great for shredding, and is really ok for fusion as well, but this will be even better for the fusion stuff I feel, Brett Garsed, Guthrie Govan, Kiko Loureiro, Greg Howe, Scott Henderson etc. that kind of thing...

Aaand now the pics!

Just a few of many, enjoy! :cool:
 
Looks great Dan (for a tele :heh:). At first when I saw the grain on the fretboard I got a little freaked out but then it appears to be a fretboard not one piece with the neck. Nice looking top wood. I have been wondering how these thinline semi's sound, must be pretty good, there is alot of them out there these days. My lower level Gretsch archtop has decent tone but some very undesirable harmonic resonance even at fairly low volumn levels, so there is some disappointment with that purchase.
 
Cool looking guitar.

What kind of bridge is that, not sure if I have seen one of those before? One thing what pops to my eye is that the string spacing is noticeably smaller between E and A strings than between other strings.
 
I had a '52 reissue butterscocth Tele years ago...it had the old fashioned brass saddle bridge like that...beautiful guitar...another one of the many "why did I ever get rid of that" guitars.
