That's lookin pretty sweet man! That is one hell of a nice lookin piece of maple on the top. Can't wait to see what it looks like when you get it finished.

Testing out the black base on a scrap piece.

Re: Jateleguar progress

I put an A5 in the GFS A2 classic to better match the bridge pickup, and i flipped it to where the pups are in phase.

The electronics are done. Now it's time to stain and finish.

Re: Jateleguar progress

got some transfast wood dye from woodcraft and started experimenting on a scrap piece.

here's the VERY FIRST coat of black before sanding.

i mixed a little bit of green in with the blue. this is the first coat of color after sanding.

Looks great.

I like your playing style.....bridge pickup seems like it needs more oomph though - can the heights be played with a bit??

I'm putting a 250k pot on it when i put it back together. The 500k is too ice-picky with a tele bridge pup.

Re: Jateleguar progress

Pity you couldn't get a 250k resistor and solder it so its only in circuit for the bridge pickup. The neck sounded really tasty with the 500k
