thanks wokks, it think the 21 days are up at the first few weeks of june, but I've got a bit to do in the meantime. I'm not happy with the control cavity rout, I've got to copper shield it after that and I;ve got a real parts 3 ply pick guard i've got the re-shape a bit.;)
This is going to be one awesome tele!

sounds good Andy, what is wrong with the control cavity, do you need to make it deeper or enlarge it ?
Are you putting in a 4 way switch ?
Nah just a CLR switch and the Gotoh pots are really fat. I've just got to dig out under the switch a bit more and widen the sides near the pots a bit more too....otherwise I fear the the copper shielding will short out stuff
21 days were up the other day. wet sanded with micro mesh pads and cut and polish....yummy...

nice one Andy that is looking very shiny. Is that Dingotone final coats ?
you must be stoked ready to assemble and wire up ! You got Toneriders going in this and any other tasty upgrades ?
(sorry if you have already said in the diary, its hard to keep up with every build diary !)
Very nice indeed.
Thanks Wokks and Paps. That the Dingotone MkI three final coats using my thin coat method, then waiting 21 days to cure before the final polish. Still assembling it at the moment........(guitar pending...........)
nice one Andy, really great result and proof that the DT final coat mark 1 can give a really nice gloss. I got a similar ash tele with about 4 coats Mark 2 DT final coat and I'm pretty happy how that's coming along
