First Telecaster finished

Finally finished building my first telecaster. African mahogany body and maple neck. Not too crazy about the bridge that's on it right now but will see how it plays. Now I need to get someone who can play to get on it.

Very nice!

Nice job! Got any more photos? What finish did you use?

Sweet...love that black pickguard!

Lookin' good. :cool:

nice!

Good work!

Thank you all.
filled grain with Timbermate, then about 4 coats of Deft sanding sealer then painted with white primer, GM red and clear(all duplicolor)

I had it originally primed with duplicolor and then used Reranch lacquer to paint it but the primer started to lift so I had to scrape all the paint off and start over.

will try to post some more photos tomorrow, at work now

Very nice .........ride on up to the house and we'll plug it in.

That's what I was thinking.

Great job.

What's next :twisted:

Thanx.
I have to build another like in my avatar for this same guy and then i think a thinline for myself. I was thinking about trying a bound thinline with tobacco burst paint job. We shall see.
