Thinline Tele and JM-1

[sulistbu]

Hi Budi,
I found my build diary for the TL-1TH
http://www.buildyourownguitar.com.au...ead.php?t=2420
It does have a thin cap, not sure what timber it is but it should have some nice grain. I stained the cap with azure lagoon and it must have been a bad batch of wudtone it looks more green than blue. I found the wiring a pain when you needed to do any mods had to remove the strings and lift the pickguard on an awkward angle.
It sounds pretty good though.
Fell free to ask any more questions Budi

Thanks Heap Wokka, I will take up the offer if you don't mind.
And hopefully both kits arrive today and I'll start build diary for this TH.

no worries Budi, the build was about 18 months ago but I remember most of it. Don't sand the cap too much think its fairly thin.
It's got binding so a bit of cleaning up required.
Look forward to your build diary.
Keep looking for the Oz post van !
