Thanks Mike!
I'm not sure on the hours. This one has been a "tooling up" process so there have been lots of hours in modifying tools, building jigs and such. Let's put it this way, I couldn't sell it at a profit.
Peace,
Mark

Hi Dave. I will definately post some tracks. I've been writing some new stuff that I think will be great for Tele...but I can do some metal, too.
Peace,

Well, after almost a year in the making, The Texas Tele is complete. I buffed it out this morning and I'm very pleased with the results. The grain really pops and it's very close to my original concept.
I went back and found a mock up shot with the full size printout taped to it and replicated the shot with the finished guitar. The flash washes it out a bit so I'll have to take some better pics tomorrow in enough light that I can turn off the flash.
Mock Up
Real Deal
Glad to have this one done. It's very easy to play and sounds pretty good. I'll post some sound clips later.
Peace,
Mark
