    Being wrong something I'm rather an expert at just ask Mrs DK

    Tis a very nice demo though and given the mangling that YT does the tone is excellent

    I have some nice Shadow patches on my Boss Katana 50 mk2. I'll have to brush up and do a demo too!

    As Build no:2 has reached completion.
    ...and no:1 is in hiatus awaiting finalising fretboard radius.
    My attention is now back on no:3.
    Call it OCD or whatever but I am not satisfied that the dimensions are not a standard Tele.
    Therefore, I am going to take the next colour change opportunity to put this right.
    The white pick-guard is standard issue Telecaster and the control plate/bridge assembly as you can see is out.

    It will mean some more sanding and wood surgery.
    Also have a 22 fret Kmise tele neck coming.
    Undecided about the colour so far.

    cheers, Mark.

    Hardware removed and re-positioned in the 'correct' place.
    Looks like some routing and hole fillling is in the offing.

    ?? cheers, standby for a change.

    The Kmise neck 22 fret neck arrived.
    I'll probably add a few mm to the butt end to bring the scale length forward.

    Still contemplating possibly fitting a Trem-King to it.

    cheers, Mark.

    Those Kmise necks are pretty good for the price. I used a pre finished 22 fret one on my Denim Tele build and it turned out fine.

    Also got two yellow tinted 22 fret Strat versions for my Alder SD rails loaded partscaster and as a replacement on my '70's Ply Strat, and both of those came with some quite awesome/wicked flame and play well too...

    Now have it in standard Telecaster scale.
    If I do go ahead and install a Trem-King it will mean gouging out all the dowelling work that I just completed.

    I still have some pickup cavity routing to complete.

    I think I'll stick with RED, however a standard candy apple version as opposed to the darker.

    cheers, Mark.
