I never used to like tele style guitars, but somehow I've become a complete convert over the last year or so.

I really wanted to build one from scratch, but realistically I know I don't have the time or the funds, so a kit build it is.

Just ordered a TL-1A, but also have plans for a TL-1HA, a thinline, and one of the 12 strings.

I'd like to try a solid colour for the TL-1A. I've made some nice looking stomp boxes with spray cans, so I feel up to the challenge of tackling the larger surface area. I'll upgrade most things, but no real plans until I get the kit and think about colours.

For the TL-1HA (when I eventually order it) I'd like to try out some hexaphonic pickups. After a lot of time trawling the net I think I've settled on these (but I have some time, so will keep thinking about it):
