haha good one Ndroid, there are a few Tasmanians on the forum so hopefully they aren't offended haha
look forward to see this project progress, so is that really the shape you are going to build for your son ?

I'm just imagining trying to sand or finish in that tight cut... that looks like a job for nDr01d Jr!
Scott.
good point Weirdy, might be more practical to do a double cut tele shape
Must be difficult to work on your tele Weirdy, would take a while to dust off the cobwebs mate ?

hehe yeah, I'll probably have to wire brush the dust off it by the time I get around to putting some more coats on.
Scott.
yeah that's it Weirdy, I think the telebilly build could be the slowest forum build ever award (SFBEA) hahah

A bit of appropriately sized dowel with sand paper put into a drill press will get into that tight spot. No worries. I've used it as a drum sander before.
@Wokks - Yep. He designed it and used my tele as starting point. I think he may have seen Princes cloud guitar some where and thought 'I could do something like that'. Plus his fav guitarist is John5 - he only uses teles. And crazy ones too eg: filled with green goo or his led tele. Lastly, he doesn't like the top horn (seriously, is that that what they are called?) on Strats. So I guess he just went 'I'll have two instead of one - more is better' He wants two humbuckers in the thing as well plus god knows what switching ie:north pole/south pole, series/parallel etc etc. Good luck to him. Half of my guitars electronics he's done anyway.
Oh, and don't let DB read this. He might change his mind about helping!

I think I have about 14 guitars on my to-do list...
nDR01d
haha sounds like a plan Ndroid,
sure if you get DB a good photo of the template you have cut he can make a template and cut the body shape. DB will have all the other templates for a double humbucker tele

Just a quick shout out to DB has stuck his hand up to help out with this bizarre project. Thanks DB!
And yes, I am aware of the appendage situation - but lets remember, he's 10, not 16 - and there are PLENTY more lowbrow guitar shapes out there. Some of which may even look "attractive" to Tasmanians
LMAO, If he was a Tasmanian 10yo, he'd already be engaged to his cousin by now!!!
