Absolutely beautiful Rob. You've done an amazing job, and all without power tools. So impressive dude.

cheers,
Gav.

That's a stunning result Rob, looks amazing. I love that headstock shape too.

Great build.

Robin, if. Your worried about pine and laminates?
You should check out the IKEAcaster.
Some dude made a Tele from an IKEA chopping block.
It's somewhere on the Internet

robin, you have skillfully made a beast of a tele, so very well done mate, nice job

Wow guys, I am truly flattered by your comments. But in all honesty anybody with a basic tool collection (that's all I have) could so the same. You don't even need a workshop. All you need is plenty of spare time and a pig-headed streak that won't let you quit.

@ Woks
Yeah Warren, I had a quick lesson on break angles or the lack thereof. Although I didn't have a great deal of choice as I REALLY wanted a guitar with the coolest accessory - the Bigsby. ;)

@Vh
Thanks Tony. It is only the idea of a layered body that allowed me to try this one. But thanks anyway mate.

@Andrew, Gavin, Scott, Stan
Thanks guys, coming from some of the better guitar builders on this site, I am truly chuffed. :)

@ALM
Yeah Bruce, I saw that one. It was somewhat of an encouragement to give it a try.

Thanks again guys
rob

All I can say is WOW! :)

Beautiful, unique and just stunning looking piece of art!

@DB
Thanks Phil, really appreciate the encouragement.

@Arzi
Thanks mate, sometimes the simple things in life are the best. ;)

cheers guys
rob
