Collaborators: Pamelina H. Handpainted Artwork
Dale Wilson's Tapestry Tele was a collaboration with LA based artist, Pamelina, who had the initial inspiration for this guitar. She brought the idea to Wilson to collaborate on the specifics. He was originally drawn to the idea of Pamelina incorporating the wood into the artwork. Wilson says "I'm always drawn to guitars that have wood as a canvas." He describes the artwork as "a beautiful combination of scrolls against a backdrop of flame maple with a barely noticeable burst on the edge". The guitar features a flame top, back and neck and features Josefina hand-wound "OBG" (Bridge) and Twisted Tele (Neck) Pickups.
