Aussie timber recommendations for semi-scratch solid body build

[Bakersdozen]

Yes, I'm aware they're two different guitars. If you look at the QLD Maple tele, the metal block from the vibrato bridge is exposed through the back acting as a string-through.

Thanks Woltz.
I've found some of those in my searches but you've linked some more options for me check out. Cheers!

I could be wrong, but I rekon that is a string through ferrule plate, not the trem block.

Aha! I think you're right Bakersdozen. I should have looked closer, although I didn't know such a thing existed!

I may look into those one day. Thanks!

Have a look at this thread McCreed - https://www.buildyourownguitar.com.a...ead.php?t=9434. I've tried to start putting together a list of timber suppliers in Aus.

I've got an acoustic made of Bunya, not sure how it would translate into a solid body though.

There are a few options about if you search for them

The one pictured in the Tele is from Grainger guitar parts in the uk. They also make a master template set for accurate routing. Have a couple of there bridges and they make some stunning guitars
