Good day everyone,

Yes, new to the site and speaking Afrikaans, I will try to praat english as best as I can. So please, just wees geduldig met my!

Ok, all jokes finished! I am fifty-two years old and played in a band all my life, called the Gibsons. I moved to another town here on the West Coast called Lutzville and there are no bands here. So I am out of music for 9 years now! At the moment I'm building my own Fender Telecaster and will be asking a lot of questions on this forum. I still got my Gibson Les Paul Standard, but want this Tele and learn to do Hybrid pickin' country style. Everyone, go well and we'll talk.

Greetings
JohanM
    Welcome. Curious on the Fender build. Pull up a chair, notebook and stuff. Lots of excellent feedback and advice from very respectable peeps.
      Welcome Sarel,

      There's been quite a few tele builds on GFSA over the years - alas some of those builders are scarce around here currently :'(

      If you dig around you'll find :
      • Rikus did a stunning 'La Carbonita' build - very high-end and detailed.
      • Manfred Klose documented at least two of his awesome tele builds
      • Wizard has also done a tele and a 'violincaster' (this one I'm quite fond of)
      Those are the tele ones I remember, there are others who have also documented builds - lapdawg springs to mind (insane detail in his LP & 'firebird' builds).
