I have been dragging my feet on this just getting going again

I hope to string it up late this week waiting on some tuner parts. Carlo gave me a dummy tail piece (thanks Carlo) I will be doing final sanding on the body and shooting sanding sealer next week. In two weeks I hope to have it all done but the pickups

I'm in the shop more and more these days so it's easy to run this along side other projects

That looks great, Scott. Beautiful piece of wood, looking forward to the finished product!

That is coming along nicely. The pickguard turned out great, I agree about the nice slab of wood. Single Pieces of Honduran Mahogany large enough for a T bird body are getting harder & $$$$ to find.

What color are you going to paint her?

Black I think..........................to match my Jaebird

My ferules for the tuner showed up today so I was able to string this puppy up ! Dimarzio model G filling in for now

First song played ? Won't Get Fooled Again.

Looks great Scott!

That particular variation of the shape is really my fave for a Fenderbird.

Thanks Mark, I REALLY need a tail piece.
