2 NEW Tele Builds In Progress - Pics Enclosed - Please let me have your thoughts

Hi Guys

Re: 2 x Tele Projects

Following the success of my Alder Twin f hole Tele Below





- I have a new Hollowbody I have called a "PineCore" on the way



This one will be pretty unique. It will be similar in design to the one above with the addition of a "PineCore" that I hope will damp resonance and give a completely new asthetic to the build. Above are the three roughed out layers. I have now glued and sandwiched them. More to follow.



I came up with this idea after hearing that the Custom Shop is producing a Pine Tele. I feel that is may incorporate the best of both worlds - Asthetics and sound quality - Please let me know your thoughts?


I am also working on a Solid body Walnut Tele to go with the Walnut Strat that I built -




Here is the work in Progress Tele - A couple of interesting things here - it is made from the same piece of wood as the strat (2 Piece) + will eventually have a mirror scratch plate.





Thats it for now folks but watch this space for updates as things progess

Si

I like the double f hole. How does it sound unplugged?

Hi Waylon

It sounds good both plugged and unplugged.
