Seriously, that is such a cool body. I love the subtle changes.

I was thinking the same thing. Nothing dramatic, it just adds some class. Nice color scheme, too. The cream against wine red is rich.
 
Hey - there appears to be a serious change in the body beveling right past the pickguard on the lower bout? Whuffo? Howzat?
 
Looks like he decided against trimming the pickguard down to fit the roundover.

Cool!  The gib switch looks cool, is it recessed?  What pick up / wiring scheme you going with?
Yes it is. Pickups are going to be "ROADHOUSE" a T90 in the bridge, & a PDX90  ( humbucker sized P90) 3 way vol & tone.

The Tele body for me is the shape & that pickguard. From the inner upper fret access to the pickguard is standard Tele 1/8" radius from the end by the switch all the way back to the neck
is MY WAY.
The build is in "A work in progress"
