Tele parts arrived

[Sin Nombre]

Just received the parts for my first Partscaster. A contoured and chambered ash body and a vintage tint 9.5 straight maple neck. Will have Schaller locking tuners, Keystone pups and a 4-way switch.

I can't start working on it til after Christmas but it should look something like this...

That's gonna be a good looking tele. And welcome aboard!  :icon_thumright:

Looks really nice!

If it was mine, I'd put some strings on it. And maybe a pickup or two. Looks good, though.

No! You'll ruin the tone!

Nice entrance! That is going to be a beautiful guitar.

Thanks everyone, for the replies.

I did do another mock up with pickups and virtual strings, and no pickguard, but with a virtual GFS neck pup cover. But I think I have settled on a BWB pickguard, black bridge and black control cover.

I already have the 4-way switch and jack ready to install, all other hardware is ready but like I said I can't start assembling until Christmas.  :cool01: 
Will post a photo upon completion.

This is how it ended up, no boo-boos and mostly fun to put together. Reading some of the forum threads helped avoid a lot of problems.

Wow! That came out really nice! Good job!

I like this a lot, it's got a very well balanced look to the various tones.
