This is my first scratch built Tele style guitar. It's my second scratch built 6 string. I did these with my Nikon DSLR so I hope they're ok.

Here are the specs:

- Poplar neck with red oak fretboard, finished in Tru Oil
- GFS Lil Puncher Modern Vintage dual rail pups
- Les Paul selector switch
- Pine 2X4 and Lowes round pine table top
- All black hardware (excepting the white selector switch tip)
- RIT transparent scarlet dye, finished with shellac, then lacquer
- Aluminum nut
Pretty standard otherwise.

The neck is very chunky, but the action is superb. It plays and sounds fantastic.

A few glamour shots...
