    Gavmeister's Standard Ash Tele with DB's special Baritone Neck

    Thought I'd try a video diary of this.
    On order is the Baritone Neck that DB is putting together for me. I have liberated a stock standard Tele body to go with this project.
    The idea behind this thread is to detail the process of the build (Hopefully DB might detail the build of the neck either here or in DB's Corner). But the key will be to give some detailed instruction, ideas and Tips for building the guitar mainly aimed at those who are new or who are wanting to put together a baritone.
    Some of the regulars might even pick up a tip or two?

    good vid Gav you are a natural. Did you change the time on your watch or was the vid taken in two hits ?
    I also go 120 ->180->240->320-.360->400 but that's because I like sanding so much.
    Current Builds and status
    scratch end grain pine tele - first clear coat on !
    JBA-4 - assembled - final tweaks

    Thanks for all the positive comments.

    Good Spot Wokka, did not want to subject people to 20 minutes of me sanding with 120 grit...so stopped the video and then carried on after each completed section! Break may also have been extended as had to wait for camera fundi to extracate himself from his computer games...

    I still have yet to compile the photo thread of the Gavmiesters Barri neck..
    Been out of action today, visit to the fang doctor this morning.....
    Now minus four fangs and feel like Smokin Joe just gave me a left hook to the jaw

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....
