Want a Thinline

porknblue · November 14th, 2009, 07:41 PM

I'd like to do a Thinline assembly with a top routed body with F-hole and a Tele-Hybrid pickguard. I'd also like to make my first attempt at instaling binding on the top edge.

Does anyone have any experience with the StewMac body that matches my description?

try an SX Thinline .100 USD and you get a proper alder body.The paints not very thick either so should be easy to strip if you want .I installed aP90 and modded the pickguard .

Ok, I took advantage of Warmoth's sale and ordered in a Tele Hybrid body, pickguard and a Birdseye maple/Rosewood neck. I believe that the body configuartion will allow me to rout the edges and put binding on the top. That's my vision on this one.

So, don't have a thinline yet and currently don't have any Warmoth products. All that is changing.
