    I just hope Ads tele radar isn't that powerful mate !
    Mate, if a Tele was being built on Galifre, Ads would know about it!

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Aaaannnd a photo of the back:

    It's begging for someone to do an all natural Es, this only us a single coat of the naughty oil in this photo.

    Also wokka and anyone else planning on undertaking this kit, I'd highly recommend filling the binding with something (maybe super glue?) as small cracks have taken on some stain which I wasn't prepared for. No biggie from my perspective, this guitars going to be a little "different" by the time I'm done anyway!
