Got paid today so I ordered the last of the parts. Schaller locking tuners, CTS no load tone pot, orange drop 22 UF cap, replacement locking pads, Dimarzio Evolution Bridge and an Air Classic Bridge to put in the neck position. I'm going to set the Kahler with wide spacing so the Evolution is F-spaced.

Nothing fancy, but decided to take a swing at doing a burnt knotty pine tele body. It's kinda of esquire spec body minus the neck route.



Quick mock up

Burned

First coat of Tru Oil. I think I went to light on it. Going to make sure I lay it on thick for the second.


Keeping the rosewood/ebony neck on it. Gotoh vintage style bridge; brass saddles. P Rail neck or PAF type neck. Zhangbucker Tar Paper bridge.

Pine is an interesting wood. That should look pretty good when it's finished.

^^ It is. This build was inspired by Ascension's thread in the pickup lounge. I've been searching old threads here and other forums. I've seen everything from pine being like a subdued ash to basswood. We'll see how it turns out. It's a light body, 3 lbs 6 ounces.
