Jimothey Posted February 25, 2022 Share Posted February 25, 2022 I've started gluing up the body for a 2 humbucker Tele today The top is going to be a fake barrel top style of a local distillery called Penderyn Distillery which their barrels are white topped with the branding stenciled on so I've decided to do the same.... The back is Pine which is going to be stained dark-ish brown so it will have a nice contrast?....... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimothey Posted March 4, 2022 Author Share Posted March 4, 2022 I tried doing the fake branding but TBH it looked cheap and tacky and all together rather S**t so I decided against it and went for this fimish instead, Here's a quick mockup........ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jimothey Posted March 8, 2022 Author Share Posted March 8, 2022 I'm just wiring this up now and doing the setup but I need to think of a name for it? I don't want to just call it a telecaster so I was thinking maybe 'burncaster' or similar? Any ideas gratefully received...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
