Mrs F bought me a Telecaster kit as my Christmas gift. It has an ash body, maple neck with rosewood fingerboard. I have some stain from Wudtone that I will use on it.
I will post the progress once I get going on it

Hi. I shall watch this with great interest - good luck with the build. Cheers. :)

ReplyDeleteWhat a great idea, look forward to seeing progress (NP!) Enjoy what's left of 2012 x
ReplyDeleteWow, how long will that take to build?
ReplyDeleteHonestly don't know I hope not too long
DeleteI had absolutely no idea you could buy a kit and build your own guitar! Is this an actual Telecaster from Fender or is it a knock-off? Does it come with pickups? Never mind...I'll Google it.
ReplyDeleteNo it is a "rip off" does late pick ups but I might upgrade with Wilkinson got ones :-)
DeleteI have to admit...that is kind of awesome. Major props to the spouse for thinking outside the box!
