Thanks! The body is made of hard ash, and I bought it from Warmoth already painted/finished. The color is called "Sonic Blue". Yeah, you can buy the parts and assemble it - I did a thread about my build
here. The body, neck and some of the parts came from Warmoth, with a few other parts coming from here and there around the 'web.

Yep, that's the one. There are some great threads about Tele builds there - I learned a lot from reading them before I started on my project. Especially look for the threads by "Buckocaster51" - he's a great builder and documents his builds very well - lots of pictures and very extensive descriptions of what he's doing.

He uses wallpaper to get the pattern. Apparently it just sucks up lacquer. |
He has some nice looking guitars on that site. I really like the "wallpaper" guitars - they're similar in concept to Bill Crook's paisley Teles. Distinctive and beautiful!
