I have pretty much ceased making CBG's and find these Home Depot pine solid bodies cheaper to make, and bring in more of a profit, and I love making them!

Even better.  I missed that before.

Very cool and very well-done!

My house is trampled by instruments. I think my spouse gave up on me. I spoze some day you’ll be found hung amongst the guits. I’ll fall into a pile and drownd.

Beautiful work Shamrock. No wonder they sell. I’d love one.

I am addicted to making these and have way too many literally hanging from the rafters in my shop... my wife said she was going to "cut me off" if I did not cease from making geetarz .... I need to run over to Home Depot and buy more glue and pine boards ... :-)

Richard,

Ok... I just traced the outline on some butcher's paper.... send me an email on where to send it

Hey Richard,

You mean the Tele pattern? Sure... let me know where to send it.... I made mine by tracing my "real" Tele, then messed around with eyeballing incremental reductions until I was satisfied with the end result.... it took a bit to get it right, but I have a plexiglass template now & plan on cranking these puppies out !
