THE JEFF BUCKLEY TRIBUTE TELE
“Words cannot begin to describe the joy and pleasure I have received from this fantastic guitar. The craftsmanship is above and beyond, down to the most minute detail. I know in my heart that Jeff Buckley would have LOVED this faithful recreation of his iconic, everlasting Telecaster. The seller, too, is a genuine craftsman who knows how to treat his customers fairly and respectfully. I will surely return to this shop for more guitars and parts! Praise Slope Guitars and Long Live Jeff Buckley!! “ -Buyer (9/16/22)

Our Mission:
For decades, low-cost factory-built electric guitars have flooded the beginners guitar market. These often Strat-styled import guitars like these are found in households around the world as well as for sale all over the web.
Our idea is to find these poor, forlorn, neglected, mocked and lauded instruments and jumpstart them on a new journey of being a serious, unique instrument.
These often vibey bodies and necks are separated from their often rusty hardware, sometimes lightly hand-worn, and then paired with new, premium counterparts.
Parts and Labor:
All of our necks are brand new maple necks which have gone through fret leveling, crowning and polishing. This ensures excellent playability right off the bat.
Our guitars use specially selected hardware for premium playability and sound. Often Wilkinson tuners and bridges will be chosen, but also Fender, Hipshot and Ping will be used. As previously stated, no two guitars are alike!
Pickups do vary quite a bit when it comes to our builds. Always read the description carefully to get a full picture of the guitar.
Policies:
We offer returns through Reverb and eBay, unless otherwise listed.
All guitars are shipped in a generic gig bag. These will be new bags, in varying but mostly good quality, often with a somewhat goofy brand name on it. But hey, still nice to store your guitar safely!
Our guitars are given a basic set-up and detailed fret work before shipping. This entails straightening the neck and intonating the bridge. But as always, I’d recommend getting all your online-purchased guitars set up to your liking by a professional.
