Nice work! I’ve replaced all the supplied plastic nuts with pre-shaped bone nuts - they’ve all had the opposite problem so far and the high end needed to be shimmed up a little, but that was easier...

Thanks - It’s certainly been a pleasure to play!
The other bonus of the acrylic is that it gives you more colour options - whereas there doesn’t seem to be many places that stock nitro spray cans....
Hi LiamD, I used nitro on my first kit build and I love how the finish turned out

Thanks guys! I handed over the butterscotch Tele yesterday and my mate loved it and has been playing it almost non-stop which makes me very happy!
So now that I’m moving onto this sparkle-aster I’m not sure what order to proceed in and would appreciate any advice.
So clearly the top is sparkled and glossed, but that is just the top, sides...
And now for the other one, still in progress, but After finishing the other one I’m keen to keep my momentum up!
After having used nitro on my strat and oil on the other Tele, I decided to use...
So once I got back into this I completely forgot to document any more of the process, but decided to put a water slide sticker under the wudtone topcoat to commemorate a trip me and my mate took.

Finally posting some pics of this with decals which actually went on ages ago. I’ve played this guitar heaps and am really happy with it. Thanks to everyone who provided such great advice along the...

I developed a nice case of GAS when I was finishing up my strat and decided to build myself and my buddy a...
Stunning guitar and awesome documentation of the process, thanks heaps for sharing it Zandit.
Love this headstock, that looks really good!
This is looking outstanding Sonic, I’m in awe of your skills!
Nah, it’s not just you mine were similar. Some people plug and redrill the holes, but I took the risk and the screws still went in fine.
Looks really nice, well done! I like the doggo on the headstock too, I thought it was engraved at first.
I’m loving my Tonerider City Limits set, covers those bases well for me.
Nice work Froggy! Looks really nice and 18 days turnaround is a great effort.
Looking awesome Sonic!
Looking good Chef! I really like the fretboard.
Wow, this is amazing!! Really quality work on the build and I love the finish, is it stenciled?
Ah ok, good to know! I’ll keep an eye on this thread to see how it turns out.
Looks awesome Franky, great work!
Is it a satin clear you used on that? I’ve got an upcoming project that I’m hoping to keep the gloss to a minimum on and it looks like you e achieved the finish...
Great improvement Adam, it loads nice n quick too!
I’ve just been reading a great series of interviews on reverb that throws up some interesting info, like that Les Paul wasn’t nearly as involved with design as he claims to have been. I’ve only read...
Looks great, between that burst and the bridge this is shaping up nicely!
