Vince Cunetto, late of the Fender Custom Shop and the guy behind the "Relic" models, has just announced his latest venture: Vinetto Guitars.
These are hand-built Tele/Strat hybrids with many switching options. Anyhow, here's word from the man himself...

"This one is wearing DiMarzio's… a Hot Virtual T in the bridge and two MiniBuckers. Like I said, the tone is amazing. I'm also using Seymour Duncan Vintage Mini Humbuckers and his Five/Two Tele bridge, as well as the Seymourized Mini Humbuckers and Vintage Stacks. They're all great pickups. And the guitar features a 5-way pickup selector and a 3 way rotary "mode" selector. It's a very usable setup.
So I've decided to keep the production limited in small batches, and custom done. I've also decided that I need to get these guitars out there and get them heard. That's why I'm offering the first batch for $1875.00 direct. I've got several configurations in production with different neck materials and profiles, colors and pickups. They'll be offered first come, first serve.
I don't have a web site yet, and there's no sales staff or marketing department, just me. If anyone's interested, I'll answer any other questions personally. Just e-mail me. "
