Interesting pair of Teles he's using, especially the second with the car radio pickup mount. :)
 



Right… but I was much more interested by why and
how and what and where and when would anyone
ever get the idea of using a Charlie Christian pickup
on a solid body.

At gun point, answering my questions, Ian told me it
has been an inadequate solution and a goof.

It's a hollow-body. ;)

I'm not a Tele fan — more a Strat freak — but this
Tele had a centre stud… that makes it a solid body!

Semi-solid rather than hollow really.


Right. Acoustically, it makes no difference as it is
feedback suppressant and too hard responsive for
the sweet tones of the CC PU.

The only advantage to semi solid is the weight.

IIRC the thinline is more acoustically responsive than a solid, though not quite as much as that 335 (which still has a centre block).
