Hi All

Third build being started now!
the first was a skateboard guitar
the second was a strat

but now it is time to get serious !
Originally thought it was an Ash body but ended up being Basswood. Slight realignment of expectations and we are on the road.


The whole thing looks great in the initial mockup apart from the pick guard (I'll send Adam an email shortly)

I love the tele body shape but not how it sits against my side - so had to do a bit of a cut away on the back.
I'm chuffed with how it worked out.

not sure about the headstock at present but I'm sure it will turn out nicely after smoothing etc.....

more to follow soon (and I'm sure a lot of silly questions)!
