Wow. I've been following this thread avidly since I first saw it. It's been a fascinating ride. You've made a great looking and sounding instrument there.

Part of me wonders what it'd sound like with the more traditional (for a Tele) single coils, but as it is it's got a very authentic sound (as best I could tell on a laptop).

Makes me want to do a luthier project now, but I have no time or facilities, that and my wife would probably shoot me for bringing yet another instrument into our lives (the Electric guitar count is up to 5, basses have held steady at 3 for about 25 years, Acoustics are at 2 plus a Mando and a Banjo). I keep thinking a lap steel, or I have an old Epiphone Texan neck from the 70s (bolt on, the body disintegrated on me) that I've always wanted to do something with (maybe a slide electric sg)....

Anyway, great thread. DO you have a URL of the site you did this for? Is the voting open?
