I've been playing a Dakota Red one of these and loving it. So I thought I'd get some in this Seafoam Green colour.
They look amazing in the flesh.
Haven't done the costings yet, but they should be around $289 with the Deluxe case (pictured).

More new finished guitars to be added over the weekend. (EX, FV and JB 5 String styles)
looks swish!
Nice colour. Great price too, especially with the case.
lalalalalala not looking not looking lalalalalala ignore the price ignore the price lalalalalalala
Geez, at those prices why would you build a kit one plus you get a hard case too?
No string-through-body option available? If not, does the guitar's construction allow you to do it yourself?
finished thinline looks great Ads and as others said if it's under $300 with hardcase it's a bargain. It differs a bit from the TL-1TH has 2 humbuckers and hardtail. This has more of a tele style to it with 2 singles and tele bridge setup. Also gold hardware usually a bit more expensive.
Presume the factory have built these, they have done a great job. Keen to hear a report how it plays and sounds
Hey Simon, no string through option I'm sorry. Does that make a difference, or is it just aesthetics?Quote:

There is nothing inherently wrong with top-loading bridges on Teles, it's just different (though with the cast alloy block saddles on my Squier they were very difficult to re-string) and you will get some players who prefer them. But I prefer the longer sustain that a rear-loading bridge gives. I've noticed a big difference in that on a couple of my bases which provide both options.
