    thanks all for your Welcomes...disclaimer clearly I'm a bit fumbly with responses. Looking forward to learning more from all your tips and hints. I do woodwork but do see the build and finish of guitar being a challenge...having said the finish is going to be a big interest to me...so many possibilities!

    Welcome Juanita.

    Nice simple & easy kit to start with plus plenty of prior Tele builds to check out for hints and inspiration.

    Cheers, Waz

    Hi Juanita welcome to the forum and start a build diary and post plenty of pics. Ask any questions you have there.
    Tele is a great kit to start on.
