    Hi all, just received my new tele TL-1A kit. This will be my first build and my 1st electric guitar. Have had acoustic guitars for years and always wanted to venture into the electric market but something I had never done. If anyone has built this kit, I would love to hear how they went and any troubles they come across during the build. The biggest thing will be the final set up. As I haven't had a lot of experience with electric guitars so finding a good setup might be difficult. Looking forward to posting the build progression and getting some feed back as I go
    Cheers

    Welcome along Nic - TL's are a nice kit - hope the build goes well for you. Make sure you start a diary of the build (we love photos!) so that if you run into any issues, someone can give you a hand.

    Cheers Nic.
    Gotta love the ash bodies and a Tele is a great axe. Looking forward to seeing how it comes together for you.
