Another Custom Order that arrived not exactly as ordered. This one is missing the veneer the customer wanted.
A very nice looking kit with a string through body bridge and the neck pickup rout nice and clean for a single coil.
The maple fretboard is particularly nice.

Lost the battle eh Rossc0? I know the feeling!
Yip, the next one was going to be a TL51 anyway. Wanted a String through Tele, and as the plan was to do it in a solid colour, the figure on the body was of no consequence. So the $100 saved can go on bits.
Only getting the body and neck. Plan is a solid pastel/surfy colour, and use Fender parts for most of the hardware, get it as close to the real thing without putting fender on the headstock as I can.
Lucky Ive got a birthday in about 6 weeks
Look out Frankie, sounds like Sea Foam Green might be the plan for this one.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! I would have bought it if I thought there was even a remote chance of it turning SFG!
If its going to upset you that much, maybe I'll do it pink or blue ;-)
Nice work Rosco. Had my eye on this too but couldn't quite pull the trigger.
Will make a really nice Tele, especially with that neck route.
cheers,
Gav.
Lmao, that was awesome Rossc0 lasted a day.
Oh well never mind. :p
The grand plan, is the LP, the Tele, a 335, a Strat and an RC base. Then I'm supposed to stop. That should keep me occupied for a couple of years.
yea, thats what I thought too :rolleyes:
Famous last words!Quote:

Hey Rossco, good score on the kit mate. All the previous PBG tele kits have a massive neck pup route so you can't use a single pup surround and even a humbucker ring doesn't cover the cavity so you really have to use a pickguard
that was my plan also but after seeing gavins stone roses rc then deadmans es2v i went crazy and added them to my list,,,,doh!Quote:
