    Cobs TLA-1 First build

    After the possibly the slowest start on record I'm underway with my first attempt. It is an ash TL with maple FB. I received the kit back in November but have just started in the last few weeks.

    I took the earlier advice and put the whole show together to make sure it all fits and works, so far completed, head stock cutout, arm and belly body contours, all hardware fitted, strung up and tested.

    Have gone for the Black grover machine heads, Tone Rider HC Pups, 6 saddle string through bridge, black pickguard with white middle ply.

    Have just pulled it all down to start working on the finish. There appears to be a thin laminate covering the entire back of the body, have just notices the edge splintering slightly whilst sanding the edge and visible glue line, do all the tl have this laminate cover on the back?
