Popping basswood grain using non black stain

Well in that case hehe. I've taken my Tele back to the drawing board on many an occasion.
Once there, I'd re-shape that lower bout and correct the ill-fitting pickguard.

Of course if it was me.....but it aint is it?

cheers, Mark.

Yeah... but...but...but it's a cheap fleabay piece of junk.... It's a stretch to even call it a Tele. Does it even deserve the effort??
