Welcome Chris!

That's a pretty great looking Tele. Really interesting what you have done with the clear covers. Also, looks like your painting skills transfer pretty well to guitars!

I took a look at the sort of things that Noe Hervas does on YouTube. He does some nice work with some exotic woods. Will be interesting to see what you come up with ;-)

The build diary section is generally reserved for PB guitars but lots of us have put non-PB build diaries under the "Non-Pitbull Guitars Gear" forum located here:

Some fully scratch builds, some semi-scratch and some parts-builds. You might consider documenting your build there ;-)

I am curious about the rosewood and pine neck. That is a pretty unusual combination. Particularly pine, which is not usually used in necks, although we've had folks here who have used it pretty successfully in bodies.

Looking forward to seeing your builds!
