Hi all,

For a long I've been reading this forum, but never posted anything. In august, i placed my very first order (..and will be my first built) at Warmoth.
yesterday, 18th of October the order was shipped and the expected delivery will be Monday 22th October !  (..shipment to The Netherlands)

My first built will be a telecaster (..as of 99% is i guess :-) )  I will place some sexy pics in this thread ofcourse  :kewlpics:

Well, who am i ? Short version:
I'm Chris (22 years) and i live in the Netherlands.
I own 2 strats (  one Fender SRV signature and one squier "E"serie (fine japanese made squier from 1984) , a acoustic seagull and a budget washburn (bought in the early days of my "career "  ;-) ) I play over a '65 Fender Super Reverb (reissue).  (yeah, i loooooove blues :D ;-) ). 
Just to have some fun, i play in a band  ( www.llbb.nl )  with some friends. Its fun the jam with some other musicians and play a gig once in a while)



I hope i can give you the pleasure to see a nice sexy tele next week :D , stay tuned.

O, have nice weekend !

Chris.

Great looking Neck & body, Chris!! That is going to be REALLY TASTEY looking! And welcome to the forum...
 
Wow! That'll be a build to keep you happy for a long time. That neck looks great! And the finish on the body is perfect
 
Very timely post! I haven't decided on the neck options for my Mary Kaye Tele yet....I was considering block inlays, you may have decided for me....here's mine awaiting the neck.

Awesome!  I would consider a different pickguard, the warmoth mint green/black, or even cream/black.  Very nice tele build, really liking the fretboard choice and paint.  Way to go!!
 
That's just excellent in every way! Don't forget--It's YOUR guitar, and whatever anybody else says they would or wouldn't do doesn't mean a thing!! Beautiful guitar!
