Where we stand. I honestly have enjoyed the relic process way more than I thought I would. And yes guys I have spent plenty of time "relicing my other guitars the real way" while I worked on this art project. Lol. Hope everyone is well and healthy and cranking the amp to 11!

Nevermind, just realized I can use a spare Tele guard that does have screw holes to mark the spots.

I absolutely understand this is and always will be a sensitive and powder keg topic, I come in piece friends. lol. I recently ordered an unfinished maple neck and fretboard from warmoth with the intent to tinker around and relic it just because I like to tinker and I thought i could do a pretty...

I debating doing it myself. Going back and forth. I have the Warmoth Tele neck and I think I'm gonna level it today I have everything to do the job on hand. If it goes well I may do the Meadowhawk.

UPDATE - PLEK TIME: I love this guitar! The original plan goin in was to enjoy the build process and learn how an electric guitar is put together and how the basic parts function, check and total success on both those parts of the plan. I also wanted to complete the setup (including fret...
