I finally had time (Thanksgiving break for teachers) to put together a guitar I've been collecting parts for. Im missing a few black screws and a black switch nob. So its technically not done but I just had to share. Neck: Fender replacement neck from WD music. Body: Nomoonlaser pine body Hardware: mostly generic parts. Pickups EMG tele set. It feels good and sounds great. I highly recommend using nomoonlaser for bodies. The cuts are great, the bodies are a fair price and everything lined up.
Thanks. I love the stained wood. I never had a tele before so I figured I build one for the fun of it.
Here's a quick sound of it. straight line in, then a clean patch, then clean with some sustain, then a chorus clean I use a lot. All neck pick up. Sloppy playing but you can hear the tone. https://drive.google.com/file/d/1N534RgAzPlP7n2Tursd8U60SHyQtbYVk/view?usp=sharing I like the clean tone. I put EMG SSH in my Jagmaster. Never looked back I love the sound. I like the humbucker the best.
Happy Thanksgiving to you as well. There is a couple school teachers on this forum and they are very respected members and what you folk have to go through during this virus thing, my thumbs up.
It has been a crazy year so far. It's a bit scary knowing what this is doing to the education system. Large learning gaps are being created. A ripple that will be felt for many years.
Hello fellow teacher! That is an awesome looking tele! Ot made me want a tele again. For my Thanksgiving break that is coming up soon, I'd like to finish some recording projects and probably some Christmas songs. Yep, it has been a crazy year!
I'd love to finish any song! haha. I have so many incomplete files on my computer. Last year I wrote a Christmas riff it was pretty cool. I'll try to dig it up. Maybe I'll make a new one.
I have had some bad luck with the 3 Barrel Saddles, how did this intonate for you?, if you dont mind me asking.
Nice job. I have 2 tele bodies from the same guy but I have a cedar barncaster and a alder one ( he said he doesn't do many alder ones). Also good choice on a solid neck. Killer build.
