This is build #9 for me
I have a woodworking background, built a gaggle of partscasters and then one day it dawned on me: I have a garage, some tools, and several hours each day where I’m not working or sleeping!
This is a sister build to a similar guitar I built for my friend, Kevin. I had just completed a few Tele, so was really not planning on building another one. But it seems to me just building one, you spend a lot of time on figuring things out and settings things up so it just made sense to build two. Plus do we really ever own enough Teles?
