tsl602000 Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 Hey all, I finished my Tele. Sorry for the bad pic quality, but the weather is pretty bad around here. Expect some better pics, that do this guitar more justice, soon. Quote
Hotrock Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 Tasty. Have you missed out a marker dot or is it just the picture? I should imagine it's the pic. Quote
tsl602000 Posted November 17, 2003 Author Report Posted November 17, 2003 it's the photo.... I'll post some better photo's tomorrow. The finish is really 3D.. but you can't see that on the pic. I hate the weather around here. Back to my burgers.... Quote
DannoG Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 Those photos aren't so bad. Just enough to make us eager for more, that neckwood looks great from what little I can see, please show that. Quote
Guest AlexVDL Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 What are all those ugly horizontal lines in the wood on the top of the guitar and the neck?? No seriously, it's spectacular nice!!! Quote

Jehle Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 Can you send me some seeds, I'd like to grow one of these too. Quote

frankenstrat Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 all i can say is WOW! nice work! Quote
DividedByJames Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 very cool! Any special wiring for the pickups, or just the standard 3way? Quote
daveq Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 Very nice! What did you use for stain/dye and clear? I wanted to do a charcoal / grey and black type of finish on one of my maple tops. Is that that you have there? Sometimes the colors don't show correctly online but it looks close to that. Quote
goat Posted November 17, 2003 Report Posted November 17, 2003 That really looks great! How does it play/sound? Quote
