    That is very nice. Well done! 😊

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    nice one Rob love the pickguard look and shape. Looks like you are on the home stretch, looks great

    I've used DT CG on a few builds and love the colour. Goes really well on your tele with the maple neck

ID:	11360Lol wokkaboy... Just looks wrong doesn't it!
    Yep, making sound. I set the action up as best I could and tuned it with phone guidance from my daughter.
    I wish I could play but if I could the kid might have had to wait until I built another one :-)...This little Tele sure does sound sweet.

    It's as it was in the box apart from the custom pick guard and my head shape.
    I'll seek advice on hardware upgrades for the next build
    She's talking hollow body so I'll look into getting either an ES-1gl or an FS-1l... I'm open to suggestions.

    All ready to go up to my daughter just in time for her 21st birthday... I reckon it'll be pumping out some tunes on the night.
    Case from Pitbull.
