Dedman that's a killer looking tele, luckily you live far enough away from the tele napper !

[FrankenWashie]

great job, love the simple clean elegance of it all. Great job Dedman!

[Dedman]

Very nice, love it, great colour as well.

Ashtrays may be impractical, and would probably annoy me as I use palm muting, but day-um they look cool!

For some reason I had it in my head that the colour was going to be a sonic blue? but white is cool.

probably had a blueish tinge while it was in primer. Had people on FB telling me they loved the colour when it was in primer too :P

Looking good mate.

IT'S ALIVE!
Hard to believe but my first attempt at building a guitar actually sounds pretty dammed good. My volume switch doesn't seem to be working properly but I'll check that tomorrow, lots of hum despite sheilding, will check I haven't lost an earth somewhere still some setting up to fiddle with. *tiny bit of fret buzz on B string.
Great twangy tex-mex sound when picking over the bridge pup.
Pictures tomorrow.
Colour me happy.
