Wokkas Ash Tele Sunburst

Looks amazing Wokka. Did you do multiple dye passes to get that depth of colour in the grain? Spectacular.

Cheers,
Gav.

got closer to finishing, polished, tuners on, neck screwed, hope to get wiring done today

The colours and featured grain look great with the gold bling, very tasty.

cheers Scott, here's a couple more pics, I'll get some better shots today in daylight. I'll have a crack at the wiring later, thanks for your help along the way !

looking good there Wokka

That subtle burst with the exquisite figure blows my mind!

cheers fellas. I got the wiring diagram sorted now, had to drill out the volume and tone pot holes on the control plate to fit the Bourns pots. Most of the copper shielding is done and 4 way switch is fitted.
Hope to get it wired up tonight

got the tele wired and strung up lastnight, the 4 way switch mod seems to work ok. Plays pretty good for no setup. The volume pot only seems to go to about half volume, won't go to no sound when on zero so I'll test the latest batch of Bournes pots to make sure they weren't faulty. I'll test one out of the packet to make sure I haven't cooked another pot. Pretty happy how its looking. Somehow I've got some glue or something on the top left of the body so I'll have to sand that off and re-finish before I enter December GOTM

here's a few more pics

Looking unreal mate. Another classic from you. I have serious amounts of luthier envy!

What did you use for the neck? Such a nice Amber tint.

cheers Andrew. neck is Dingotone outback sunset and back of body FW jarrah stain

here's a quick sound demo, busted out some slide, bit rusty, think this was on position 4 with neck and bridge in series. Once it's setup with new strings I'll get a better video

Very nice, looks and sounds great.

Thanks Wokks. That thing rips! Sounds amazing.

Cheers fellas, I'll get a better video up when its setup with new strings and I've had less red wine haha

here's another quick vid from lastnight, pretty happy with the early tone. This was position 4 bridge/neck in series.

Does anyone know how/if you can get the youtube thumbnail to display when you post YT links with the new platform ? The old platform showed the thumbnail

Use the little film strip icon in the reply tool bar (2nd from right) or just use the format:

Looks and sounds killer Wokks. I love the black guard on this one and the contrast to the amazing burst. You've really nailed this one dude!! If mine sounds half as good I'll be a very happy camper.

cheers,
Gav.

cheers Gav, yeah these ash tele's came with a white pickguard and the black matched the ash grain and colours much better
