Telecaster Build

Post by Awstin »

Well shit.. Just won a lake placid blue telecaster body on Ebay. So I guess I'm building a tele. I have a nice bridge, pickups, and a loaded control plate so I said why not?, Just need a neck and a guard. Thinking black unless that new spitfire fellow wants to make me a vintage style tort guard :D

I might have a GFS neck with a reshaped (tele) headstock if you wanna buy it... I just need to double check.

Sweet man. That would be great. It's definitely a tele headstock shape?
