    hey guys/gals, I got another question for ya. I hope this is the right forum to ask it in. I was wondering if all the pots are the same dia. as far as the spline part, and if you think they sell a cheap-o one at radio shack that I can destroy to put in the drill chuck on my lathe. while I am waiting for parts I thought I could turn my knobs. Thank you for any input ya got on it.

    mesquite is a beautiful wood, it does burl and can have a lot of figure, this piece is really neither but I like it the same I am really conflicted whether to put a lacquer on it or just leave it with an oil finish it is very "warm" feelin right now. veggies? that's what cows turn into fajitas aren't they? Also I am debating on replacing the stock tele control plate with one made of a piece of texas ebony a friend of mine gave me as well as turning some knobs outta the same. I really am having a great time with this project!! *edit codename mesquito-caster if it hasn't been formally taken

    Thank you all for the kind words and the encouragement!! We are over grown with mesquite down here in about Texas, I was pretty happy to have a chunk that was big enough. I wish I woulda had a band saw to get the bookmatch closer but all I had was a table saw and a sawzall... I am currently waiting on the pickups and a router bit to arrive before I go any further but here is a photo with one coat of Danish oil on

    I ordered some slick "old school" pickups from guitar fetish, I was really shooting blind when I ordered them tho I did read one pretty good review. Still trying to decide on the tuners. any suggestions would be really helpful.

    well this is my first attempt and I didn't build the neck, I know that is part of building a guitar, but I wanted to start somewhat simple for my first. tell me what ya think on my progress so far.
