This just keeps getting better and better - in awe Haydn...

[VanHaydn]

Thanx!
got some strings on it to test position the bridge after internation in set, then will drill post holes and setup the neck later and complete electronic stuff

Must be pretty satisfying to get it this far! That one would have pride of place in anyone's pool room.

still need my address to paint it for you? I wont send it back tho..

Thanx Gents!

now to get this hooked up to electricity ! has a nice acoustic sound, definatly has that thin sounding tele feel about it must be the curved surface throwing it or the bridge on the face with washers as shims! its light as its a thinline for sure couldnt get a Jackplug in the side even if i wanted to, But I had other ideas anyway..its going between the volume and tone, looks great, just use a right angled input jack! I may go for a stacked switchable humbuk if Im not happy with the drive!

I can imagine moving the tone forward and putting the jack at the back of the plate, but between sounds a bit bizarre. I'd even consider replacing the tone pot with the jack, as I've basically never used the tone control on my guitars over almost 30 years of playing. I use the volume control though and I have visions of the guitar chord getting the way. Can't wait to see pictures of it wired up so I can see how this config really works.

I like bizzare and different. it can fit at the back no worries but I put it in the middle just to be different, as I also just always crank knobs full and thats where they stay until I pull the plug,
here is vid unplugged...

Are they high gain pickups? The harmonics really jump out.

Fantastic job.
