Thanks to prompt delivery service the tele i bought in the sale arrived this morning. Not really sure what im gonna do with this yet, besides the fact that i wanna upgrade the pups and electrics this time.
I also want to slim the neck profile down a bit so it feels more like a strat neck, but finish wise ive no idea
Anyway heres some pics out the box
Neck fit is nice and tight, way better than my thinline was which is great. pickguard fit is terrible lol, i selected a black one when i ordered the kit but tbh i havent even decided what colour to go with so ill order that later on
Theres a slight ding in the fretboard, i guess wet rag and a soldering iron is the way to sort that out? Also some odd lines on there too, not sure whether i should look into staining it darker to hide those or make a feature
Body looks good besides a few little dark spots just behind the bridge, again i havent decided on the finish yet anyway so not an issue
Im planning to get the frets dressed and the neck and bridge fitted before i do any finishing. I also wanted to do through body stringing so ill have to look into getting a different bridge too
