Ooh, that's lovely. I'm not normally a fan of the CT Tele but that just looks great. Great piece of Bk too - lots of detail but a nice even grain all the way across. Brilliant looking guitar.
 
That's Bloody Yummie  :icon_thumright:

What the plan for the finish ? ... the body I mean.

What about a 'Black to Clear Burst 
 
sweet!  This is like a preview for me, I've got a very similar guitar on order.  The BK looks great.  I also like the look of the Warhead with it, which I also chose.  Great minds think alike.  :icon_smile:

I'm interested to see how you finish it.  I went with the W satin clear.

Color me envious.  As in green.  Very nice stuff you got there.

Green is the plan. It is a little tempting to just clear it, but I think I will stick with plan A, transparent green.

Mine took less than 3 weeks from ordering to delivered to Australia, they must be quite at the moment, my neck only took 3 weeks too.
 
Oh, you're gonna finish it? I thought it had clear satin. Man, green is my least favourite colour for a guitar too. Still, we don't make custom guitars to get it how someone else likes it, do we? Go for it man and I hope you love it.

No finish, you are lucky.  With the finish being done by W on mine I probably have another month to wait, I ordered April 2.

You should check out the Swamp Thing finish that is floating around somewhere, I think it's a green to brown fade, looks pretty cool.  Might be an interesting direction to take if you want green with a little extra somthin'.
 
Fantastic! I really like all your choices on this. This is bound to sound great!  :guitarplayer2:

Cheers, probably not while I'm playing it though, I'm a bass player, but in the right hands it should. I'm going to get a local guy (Orpheus pickups) to wind me a custom set of humbuckers for it
