    Hi Doc, here's my gold tele diary, sorry it's not that detailed and skips some early stages

    http://www.buildyourownguitar.com.au...ight=gold+tele

    I would be very careful using any other brand of paint so would really recommend you contact the BGSFOS and ask when the White Knight Primer will be in and swap it over and keep your receipt.

    I've had too many fails mixing paint brands and types so stick to golden rule (pardon the pun) #1 keep the paint the same brand

    I can always go back to the BGSFOS tomorrow and see if they have re-stocked that White Knight Primer, in fact that's what I'll do.


    Thanks so much for helping me out like that mate, much appreciated.


    I just checked out your Gold Tele thread and the colour on the body looks like about the right shade of Gold that I'm aiming for, cheers, I'll have a good read of that thread mate.


    I may even finish the body of the 51 Tele like that if the finish on the Strat turns out well.
