    A little more progress over last few days. Put a ding in the headstock and couldn’t find a matching filler so used a pendant that the missus donated and inset into headstock. Needs a bit more to tidy up but it will get there. Got a Cricut for Christmas so made up and fitted logo and had a play with the pen function on the test card for a dummy info sheet as well.
    Polished up the neck and body and started assembling still have a little wiring to do and then start setup and levelling the frets etc..

    Love it. The logo looks great, and the gold goes well with the colour scheme.

    Struggling to find the time to do any building but did get around to wiring the Tele and finishing the fretwork off as was a bit rough on a couple of the edges. had it strung and playing but the string alignment is a bit off with low E too close to the edge of fretboard (wasn’t when I originally setup before finishing ) and high e a good gap to edge so a little bit of tweaking on the neck position may be required or repositioning the bridge a touch to get it completed.

    This looks fantastic! Love the flame maple neck and the mango top.
