Looks really good. I have an extra neck lying around that I plan on doing a body-match with too.

That looks awesome! Did that guitar come that color or is that all custom parts and stuff?

The guitar was already that color, Some dude at the car parts store visually matched the paint.

Verdict is: Musoland rocks?

With Musoland you get a base to work with. You can definitely end up with a nice guitar, if you spend a few bux!

And thx for the nice comments! Can't wait to put it together! :P

Freaking Joedecal`s decal is taking forever, Couldn't hold it anymore, so I put it together.... Hopefully the decal comes tomorrow! Had to drill new holes for the Klusons and enlarge the existent tuner holes a quite a bit for the conversion bushings to fit.

The Fender decal should cover the string tree holes.

Tuners look slightly crooked but fuck it!

If you don't mind me asking, what was the total cost to make this Tele? It came from Musoland, right?

Yes Musoland!

I spent.....

$240 on the guitar

$30 on paint and clear coat. (I got lots left tho`)

$20 on the Fender decal

I already had the tuners and the pots in my parts box. I will replace the neck pickup with maybe a Mighty Mite or a GFS not sure.

That's not bad at all. It really came out looking great.

What's your opinion on the general quality and feel of the guitar? I'm interested in buying one of those Ric copies they're selling.

I really like this one. There are some minor flaws, but for the price I think it`s worth it! It feels on par with any decently setup Squier.

That's exactly what I was hoping you'd say. I think I know where my stimulus check is going now.

Looks boner!
I wouldn't bother with a decal. If I was gonna do a decal, I'd have a custom design or something. SLAYER TRIBAL???!!

Mmmmm.... I`ll think about it, but I already have the freaking decals on their way!

All done, had to buy some string trees cuz I lost the original cuz I'm a dumbass!!
I replaced the neck pickup with one of these bad boys.
Clearcoated the freaking headstock like 8 times... Turned out ok.

Sounds pretty nice and am happy with it.
