Got a nice older Bach Telecaster Standard, they build many of their guitars with mahogany body, which is interesting for a special Tele Custom build..
the original bridge singlecoil sounds nice, bridge with notched brass saddles..

ok, hard work first..
neck pickup cavity hacked with wood knives..this mahogany body is really light, smells nice and is really dark colored.
control cavity hacking was most work ( forgot to take fotos)..
fret levelling and recrowning..left some scratches on the maple fretboard because I only covered it with cheap tape..
masking tape is much better..lesson learned.
maybe I fix that later..
