A while back I decided to build a new guitar, and it’s finally ready. Obviously tele-inspired, but with a few quality of life changes I really enjoy, like locking jack, arm contour, and tilted control plate. Body is ash, neck maple and oak, and the plates are oak too. Tone is surprisingly mellow but still has a bite to it. Haven’t fully adjusted it yet, but I’m satisfied already :)

Very nice - is that a thunderbird pickup in the neck?

Wilkinson WMHR mini-humbucker. Didn’t want to make a big investment into an experiment, but it sounds so good it will stay
