Nothing exciting...a Strat and a Tele. But so far I'm very pleased with how they're turning out. Total invest for both guitars so far - $80 and some time fixing someone's guitar who traded me some parts. I'm gonna wire up the Strat tomorrow and buy some tuners for the Tele. That should still keep it under $150 total for both guitars. Not too bad... I'm also considering painting the Tele. Maybe a surf green. Opinions?

Thanks a lot guys! The Tele is black. It's full of finger prints but I'll polish it up when I'm done. I'm a big fan of the Strat color also. I've never loved the look of Strats but the color just gets to me.

The Sunburst Tele belongs to a friend. It's a knockoff and to be honest, I can't really remember why it's in pieces on my workbench.
