Those builds were also very good learning experiences. For the LP I learned that bargain basement prices on kits have their risks. The fretwork on the neck was terrible so as a result I had to figure out how to do a fret level. For the tele I learned about some of the quirks of assembling a guitar from parts that haven't necessarily been designed to fit together. I used a 22 fret neck but the body was routed for the standard 21 frets so I ended up carving out some of the neck pickup ring to fit under the fretboard. Guitarfetish also messed up and sent me a bridge pickup with no cover so I had to change the pole pieces to gold and install a cover on it. Also learned that it is really frustrating to try and install a traditional tele jack cup assembly without the specialty tool from StewMac. So I ended up going with an Electrosocket.
