    And yes, I am aware of the appendage situation - but lets remember, he's 10, not 16 - and there are PLENTY more lowbrow guitar shapes out there. Some of which may even look "attractive" to Tasmanians

    Hmmmm, plenty of jokes and where do you start? Better leave them alone as this is a PG rated forum after all.

    Hahaha, If you can't laugh at yourself, there's not much point to life is there??!!!
    I was born and raised here, and I think I've heard just about every joke there is, and then some.
    If it weren't for us Tasmanian, or New Zealanders for that matter, you mainland guys would have nothing to talk about!!

    Yes there's never any shortage of sheep shagger jokes from my colleagues and rugby club mates here on the West Island.

    haha good one Ndroid, there are a few Tasmanians on the forum so hopefully they aren't offended haha

    look forward to see this project progress, so is that really the shape you are going to build for your son ?

    good point Weirdy, might be more practical to do a double cut tele shape

    Must be difficult to work on your tele Weirdy, would take a while to dust off the cobwebs mate ?

    hehe yeah, I'll probably have to wire brush the dust off it by the time I get around to putting some more coats on.

    A bit of appropriately sized dowel with sand paper put into a drill press will get into that tight spot. No worries. I've used it as a drum sander before.

    @Wokks - Yep. He designed it and used my tele as starting point. I think he may have seen Princes cloud guitar some where and thought 'I could do something like that'. Plus his fav guitarist is John5 - he only uses teles. And crazy ones too eg: filled with green goo or his led tele. Lastly, he doesn't like the top horn (seriously, is that that what they are called?) on Strats. So I guess he just went 'I'll have two instead of one - more is better' He wants two humbuckers in the thing as well plus god knows what switching ie:north pole/south pole, series/parallel etc etc. Good luck to him. Half of my guitars electronics he's done anyway.

    Oh, and don't let DB read this. He might change his mind about helping!

    I think I have about 14 guitars on my to-do list...
