Southern suburbs Cape Town...

Hi all

I'm deciding to try my hand at a 70's telecaster deluxe build. Looking to make it just like this TMG:
https://reverb-res.cloudinary.com/image/upload/a_exif,c_limit,fl_progressive,h_620,q_85,w_620/v1398960077/ltbxic3hkphd59wg4y44.jpg

Following specs:
Gretsch White Falcon pickups - lots available on eBay
TP-3640 bigsby
Not sure about the wood yet
Seafoam blue, transparent so you can see the grain
Pearl pickguard

There are obviously so many places to get parts and tools in the US but I've got no experience in this stuff. My brother has a CNC machine so the cutting won't be a problem.

For the people experienced in builds, where should I look to get the parts, especially the wood? I want to do a solid job of this and am willing to spend a fair amount on it. What advise would you give me for this?

Thanks all! Super amped!

How did this one end up?!?!

Sounding sweet?
