Take a look at the Finishing section.

I picked up the painted body from the luthier today. It was sure nice to see it finally done! The color is maybe slightly too dark and definitely too opaque compared to the original Walnut Brown, but anyway I think it's great.

After all, the neck was refretted with close to the original fret size. Also the few missing dots were added and the fingerboard oiled.

The neck, bridge+pup combo and strings are now attached, and the guitar is now waiting for some electrickery.

These are few wallpapers I made a *good* while ago. Pictured here are my Epiphone Flying V and my homebrew Telecaster. The wallpapers are available only in 1280 * 1024 size. Feel free to download!



If you have any wallpapers or high-rez images of '72-'81 Telecaster Custom or '73-'81 Telecaster Deluxe and are willing to share them, I'll be more than glad if you could mail me one.
