I'm refinishing and rebuilding a 1984 MIJ Telecaster that has sat idle for a longass time. the neck and electronics on this my first guitar were worthless, so they had to go.
years ago I put stickers on the finish, the foolishness of youth, it fucked up the finish bigtime and could not be buffed out. so I sanded the finish off and primed the body. I'm painting it now, a dark charcoal pinflake (using car paint, as is commonly recommended - LOL). gonna put on a bunch of gloss urethane coats and wet-sand the finish down like in the tutorials.
in the bridge, a Seymour Duncan ST59 "Little 59" Lead mini humbucker(ST59-1), these things fucking scream.
neck position, a Seymour Duncan STR3/QuarterPound Rhythm, classic tele sound with more presence and no noise.
Warmoth Pro Tele neck, curly maple, curly maple fretboard, 22 jumbo frets. these are expensive, gonna have to wait a month or so for this part of the project.
this custom parts monster will kick ass and look great when I'm finished! [img]/images/graemlins/notworthy.gif[/img]
