I'm always glad to share information.

I received my flower guitar body yesterday.
After looking it over, the bridge on mine is not original and it seems the 6 saddle, 3 screw bridge on Jeff's was more than likely the original. I'm still curious why there's a mini coil tap switch on his control plate, as that wasn't stock on other Telecaster models by the same company.

The body is definitely made of plywood.
I know my bridge pickup has been changed, but not sure about the neck pickup, if that's original or not.

Also, just for the sake of it being known, the pickguard holes on the body definitely do NOT match any Fender or Squier type pickguard and will need to probably be custom cut if someone else ever acquires one of these bodies.

Here's a clip of the guitar player from the band HELLA using one of these flower guitars.
