G'day Learned Gents/Ladies.
Starting out on my first Tele build so thought i would come to the source for advice.
Looking through the archives is a bit daunting but I'll be happy if I come out with something vaguely looking like a Tele that makes a noise.
The reason for the build was an old tele body and neck (no hardware) that i came across in an Op shop (Aussie version of a good will shop). So for the princely sum of 20 bucks it came home with me.
What I'm trying to figure out is what style of tele neck i have as that will influence pick up choice etc down the track.
As there are no serial # i can't shoot a email off to Warmoth asking them.
So if anyone has any pointers on what to look for where to measure etc would be very grateful.
The project is going to take a while as I'm not the speediest bloke in the garage but hope to post progress pics as I go to keep me motivated.
Cheers
Brett.
