Telecrapper, Johnny Rocker, Stratocrapper, crappocaster, Terlitnator, fannypack, the Eric Crapton, Thunder Wunder, ....what should we call this thing?!
Whatever you want to call it, mums the word because it's a Christmas gift for my younger kids. They watched me build a real guitar for their older brother, and made several comments about wanting a guitar too. The problem is that none of them play, so it's hard to justify the time and money of building a nice guitar...the Telecrapper was just the ticket. Guitar builds don't get much simpler than this. We had the neck, the pickup, and saddle, so I only had to buy the tuning pegs, toilet seat, strings, and jack cover. I've probably got 4 hours and ~ $40 into it. I just got it strung and fired up this morning, and it seems to work fine. Hopefully they all have a good time with this. I don't envy anyone who ends up doing guitar licks on this thing!
