sounds good Rob, sounds like you have been keeping busy.
What model kit you thinking about for the next one ?
I'm sure once a kit arrives your motivation will quickly rise !

Not sure yet. But probably another Tele. I absolutely adore my Cabronita Tele with the the P90's (it is by far my favourite guitar now) but not sure if I will go with the Hot 90's again or go for a lesser wound set and try and tame it a bit. I could also try using a 250k pot instead of the 500k. No point in having 2 guitars that sound exactly the same.
If I do go ahead with the build it will have to be finished on or near the 15th October, so if I am to go again I had better start soon.
Take care mate
rob
so the tele in your avatar your favourite ? Of course build another tele with a different sound makes sense.
So you can thank me for getting the wheels moving on the next build haha

Great to hear you've been getting stuck into a bit of recording Rob, like you say, you get to know a song pretty well by the end of it. Don't get too discouraged if things aren't sounding quite right, just stick at it, watch heaps of tutorials and put them into practice.
A lot of it's about training your ears, which simply won't happen overnight, so while listening to a track 1057 times seems a bit of a drag, you're actually fine tuning your ears and your ability to pick apart specific aspects of a mix.
You'll have to shoot me a demo sometime, I'd love to have a listen and dish out some impartial feedback. Keep it up mate.
