OK, stupid question. Then what do you think of this Tele? And what do you think of an all black Tele getting worked over for a soft jazzy sound?

I do not like those. But, following my usual MO, I already have the archtop pups. This is a possible target landing place for them!

I measured the ohms at something like 6.19 neck and 7.17 bridge. Braided shielding, 2 conductor. Alnico magnets, but not sure which type.
