I wont be able to finish these until after Christmas because 12 grandkids later its a bit tight until then but @smitty_p you asked for it you got it. Keep in mind these were pretty much a shot in the dark but loving them so far....

Can you post a pic of the butt-edge of this Tele?
How about the weight of the body with no hardware?

 

[Truss_rod]

Still wet right now but I will later and it is very heavy for a Tele. I have a hardwood in the middle about 1/2 inch wide for strength. I think the sticks wouldn't hold up without it.

Now you can play Pop(sicle) music with your Telecaster.

I have a set of Dream 90s from Guitar Fetish I am going to use, they sound great to me.

Thank you sir...

So...umm...any plans for a Floyd?

 

[Truss_rod]

Actually smitty probably not, I don't use a trem system and don't plan on selling any. I'm still trying to fathom the fact I am building a 2,400 piece guitar.

For what it’s worth, you’ll be our hero!

 

[Truss_rod]

I wouldn't have a clue how to set up a Floyd...

How big is this guitar going to be? Electric or acoustic?

 

[Truss_rod]

One is a Tele style and the other a 339 style. Who knows after I wackum with a planer....
I believe electric's are easier to hide mistakes, no way am I ready to tackle a acoustic.

 

[Truss_rod]

Ok here is a crazy one but fun and simple. I have no clue how to play a lap steel but definitely going to try...

 

[WavMixer]

Dayum SicleStix, if this and a stickcaster play as well as they look, you might have just found yourself a new career!

Oh my sir! You’re going to have a waiting list for those!
I would like to be at the top of that list please!
Amazingly beautiful!

 

[Truss_rod]

Thanks wav and Don. It was pretty easy to build. Not sure if its right or not but it works lol. I have a long ways to go on building this stuff but each one I do I learn from my mistakes.
