And here's the back and headstock.
I don't see any reason to play guitar of the month strategically, so I'll pop over there and post the same pics, and take my chances against the other very wonderful guitars that have been entered.

Glenn - whoever wins is going to be worthy - at the same time, if you don't win, it's worthwhile knowing that it's been beaten by a beautiful guitar. That said - your effort is far from shabby - it's a very nice guitar.

Awesum guitar Glenn came up a treat
Thank you fellas, I'm right chuffed with it. If I manage to manufacture some time in the next week or three I'll try to do a video so you can enjoy how it sounds as much as I am. Hopefully before its owner comes and claims it! At which point I'll have to scrape together the money to buy some of those bloody pickups for myself. They're pretty fricken good.
Het Glenn. Do it. Make a video. I want to hear as many people's builds as possible. I love watching people build these things along with all the dramas and successes. To hear it is like being there for the grand finale.
Absolutely top-shelf job Glenn! It has to be one of the sweetest looking Tele's I've seen in a while - I'm sure Tania will be right happy with it!
Wait a minute ... that sounds like Rock and/or Roll!
SG-1 ... "Little Miss" finished in Flamenco Cherry Wudtone
TL-1A ... "Slugger" finished in Antique White Nitro
EX-1 ... "Metal God" finished in nickel-plate (work in progress)
ST-1A ... "Scrapper" stained and finished in linseed oil ... and with the "secret weapon"
GR-1SF ... "Rocker-billy" (just arrived, work in progress)
Tania came over today to take delivery of the Red Menace. That's one happy lady! Straight away she commented on how light the alder body was in comparison to the guitars owned by her band's guitarist. So, correct choice there!

That smile must have made it all worth it.
Well done Glenn.
Fantastic photo Glenn, she looks very happy (as would I with such a lovely Tele).
Cheers,
Adam
