This thing was a real dog when I picked it up on the cheap. A few new parts and some TLC later, here we go:

And a sloppy demo to go along with it. I'll post a new one soon.

That looks really good, very Albert King.
I think what really let those down were the pickups, every single one I played sounded terrible.

I put GFS Alnico IIs in this one. I like them, they don't clash with my teles like high-output humbuckers tend to.

That looks amazing! Nice!
I have painted one guitar....I bought a Saga Tele kit abs tried to paint and gloss coat a naked Tele.
I didn't do so well. You did great.

Has a nice full sound. Good looking and a bit road worn which I like.

Thanks guys but it's the factory finish. It is definitely road worn, but naturally so. All I did was replace...everything. :lol:
