I like that!

Cool shape! Quite fat looking maybe but balanced visually.

I gotta finish this one. I can live with how drippy and terrible the finish is finally (thank you Jero and Dowi!) gonna sand it down a bit and put some other random drips on it then clear coat. I finally got around to glueing the headstock. think i can probably bullshit some 10mm tuners in there. Saw some klusons that both had threaded jackets and screw mounts so it wil probably be fine with an almost fit. If not ill just tape it. Who cares!

PAF style humbucker mounted to a Dogeared P90 plate. Direct mounted to the body. sounds great,Nothing in the bridge.

Tried cutting a white guard, looking for something more interesting to cover up some holes. Leather perhaps, Might try a short 3 barrel style bridge.

Here is a Bigsby guitar project I've been plodding through.

I decided I wanted to make my own guitar from scratch last year (I'm still not done but I'm in the final stages).
This guitar has really been a learning experience. I'll explain if anyone is interested.

What an awesome thread! I haven't seen it before.

Just tell us more about the Tele, karmablock. Interesting graphics!

I've always wanted to make a guitar and got inspired to actually do it by watching Tchiks Guitars on YouTube. I have limited woodworking experience and ended up making some devastating mistakes.
Almost lost the tip on my finger to a router accident which also damaged the body (see photos in my original post).
The graphic is actually fabric. Because of the damage the I figured it would be the best way to cover my not so great patch job. Unfortunately, the fabric top process had its own issues. When I started it was hot sunny day and that caused the vinyl sealer to bubble. Trying to sand it out caused issues with the fabric. But I've gotten to the point where I'm not as concerned with the cosmetics.

It’s been awhile….

Got a sterling sr5 body and neck.
The frets end were sticking out and sharp and, they did not look very well seated.. and I’ve been eyeing around for a fretless musicman.. so.. I did a test pull.. and the fret came out tooo easy! So.. doing a fretless! ATM I have already pulled out all the frets and am going to fill with veneer..
I had a old olp bridge and pickup already so I am going to test how it sounds and plays before doing a real project out of it.. you know.. better bridge, pickups, maybe a new body if the basswood one here doesn’t sustain enough..
