I had some good news and a good outcome this week. So I have lashed out and bought a Tele guitar kit to build just for me.

I have added the upgrade locking grover mini tuners, a bone nut, all chrome hardware, with a maple fretboard.

And a neck and Bridge set of these.....

Real Parts order has been done.....

2 x 500K mini CTS pots, 1 x 0.0223uf orange drop cap, oak Grigsby three position switch, switchcraft jack socket, recessed electro socket chrome jack socket hardware, chrome control cover with USA thread holes, chrome strap locks.

Embarrassing to say I left and didn't go too far. Amazing what your life and your head can do to you at times. I can't do without my building fix.

Somewhere on the finished guitars page is a series of photos of a build by DingoBass of a Tele with a mix of orange and yellow/amber. I think I will try something like that.

So Humbucker sized P90 pickups and a bigsby on a tele semi-hollow body......nice.

I am thinking that I may go to the big green shed and check out the satin finish of the Cabots spray poly. I think that stuff is great for me to use. Paint not so much, the oil and stain finishes I can do.....the colour with a spray poly finish will be as close to paint I will ever get.

I am sorry I ran away so quickly when the world got tough for me. It is nice to be back.
