I have never been one to build guitars like anyone else, however some styles are classic and legendary. The Telecaster is one of those classic guitar shapes and one of the most recognizable guitars in history. Although everyone can tell a telecaster in a group of electric guitars there are many different variations of telecasters . There is the Standard, the Deluxe, the Thinline and more. That is what interested me in this shape. Another reason is the simplicity of the design. I have acquired some reclaimed wood which I have milled and have made 4 body blanks. Of course I can’t just make one kind of guitar so I have decided to make 1 of each. I also have decided to use some wood that I have had lying around for several years. These will not be like regular telecasters but will have my own twist. More to come..
