My 9 year old Daughter Ashlyn wanted a guitar of her own ( her 13 year old brother has a Cherry Red Strat!) so i decided to build her a Tele in her favorite colour Green .......... here it is so far painted in a metallic Sea Foam Green with a Mother of Pearl binding.

looks excellent Trevor, love the colour. The MOP binding and pearl pickguard suit really well. Did you do the binding yourself ?
Sure did ....... Ive set up my router just perfect for the 1.5 mm X 6 mm binding then is just a case of heating with a hair dryer and super glueing it down and taping it into place. Once Ive completed the color i use a razor blade to carefully scrape the binding down to the body as i have it sitting slightly proud and this also scrapes off any over spray on it -That's the teadous part - and then shoot clear lacquer over the whole body.
yer ok nice job Trevor. Thought your daughter may prefer the Kiss Iceman axe ! haha
She can fight over that with her brother when I depart this world Buddy !! Lol
haha sounds fair Trevor, I wouldn't part with that axe, its a ripper
top work Trev, that looks really good. Nice work with the binding
Holy crap, Trev. That is stunning. Everything on it compliments each other. Beautiful!
The metallic green with the MOP looks great. My daughter would be very jealous!
I'll be your daughter for that tele :P
