    Finished

    The build is pretty well finished. A good thing about oil finishes such as Danish Oil is you dont have to wait a month for things to harden before you can finish off the guitar. My son had a set of taps and we tapped the front hole on the octave string saddles and that helped greatly with setting the intonation. I may still have a common problem with this bridge as the octave strings especially for the low E and A strings are lower than than the other strings. In the playing area of the fret board its not too bad and is quite playable. I will see how others go with a replacement bridge or consider a Gotoh bridge. It sounds good especially with the tonerider picker in split or humbucker mode. The kit pickup is a bit bright and harsh but still quite useable. It wont be my go to guitar but it looks good and adds to my collection of teles. If I ever join a 60's cover band I will be set.
