Total personal preference, but I think any of these designs will look rad.

absolutely. i dislike the large strat headstock enough that it put me off buying a real tele deluxe on gumtree though ahah

Yeah, but they were worse because they were the extra large CBS Strat headstocks, instead of the smaller pre & post CBS headstocks.

[BenWA]

yep absolutely. i just cant get on with the extra large CBS strat headstocks im afraid, much prefer the normal and tele ones.

the greens going on real nice, im looking forward to seeing this one put together!

Sorry for the lack of update, here is how it looks after two base coats

[maxaxe]

Coming along very nicely now - keep at it greenfingers.
Yeah, I agree about those bigheaded guitars (or guitarists)

[stevierayvannabe]

That is looking really good. Keep up the great work Jacob.

I have just finished the 3rd base coat and hung it up to dry, no need for a picture I don't think, as I just posted one of after the second coat.

Green's lookin' superb Jake, just out of curiosity what's that blemish righthand middle?

You can find a good selection of Fender head-stock templates here.

I used a Telecaster Deluxe during the 80's and personally it always felt a bit weird with the large head-stock (along with its medium jumbo frets). It was a great axe though.

I'm liking the emerald green keep up the good work!

[adkooy]

I'm pretty sure the blemish was just the lighting
