January 2016

The first Guitar Of The Month vote for 2016 goes to long-time contributor ScottR and his excellent "Lester T"! As usual for Scott, the build was documented beautifully over on the forums showing everything from the lumber through to the final polishing. Congratulations!

@ScottR, "Lester T"

"To date my favorite guitar I've built was "Justin's Guitar" that I built for my son. He wanted a Les Paul body shape with my own headstock and carves and he wanted a set of Klein Epic Broadcaster pickups in it. That led to what has been dubbed a Les Tele-ish guitar build, that I just loved........but it lives a 1000 miles away. So I had to make me one. "
