AS promised Danny.
Here is the finished Seafoam Green tele, color courtesy of Dubtrub.

The kit came with black dot markers, that I replaced with Abalone, I added Abalone topped control knobs. Hand made truss rod cover, I changed the chrome tuner buttons for pearloid, LOOKING FOR ABALONE. Standard electronics to be replaced with similar vintage Tele Style, better quality.

I'm diggin it brother, love the color

Good job! How does it feel and sound?

I love the feel, and the sound. Thanks for the color.
Dan

That is one fine-looking guitar, good on you for having the skill to make one. Super-sexy colour.

Enjoy!

(Hey, what kind of amp likes a 12-string solidbody, anyway?)

Sorry about late reply.
I use a Vox VT20+ Modeling amp.

I purchased a Genuine Fender tweed hardshell case for my build. IT DIDN'T FIT, the axe is too long. I had to separate the lining from the case, and remove some of the Styrofoam padding, then re-glue the lining. It was about 1/2" too short. Now it fits fine. I contacted the seller, they said, WELL IT'S NOT A FENDER, "TOUCHE". I wrote back, that maybe they should note that in their sales description. Both of my kit built Fender copies, have the same issue ? Would 1/2" either way for the kit or the case have hurt anyone ?
They sell look a like tweed cases, that are longer ! BUT NO I NEEDED A 'FENDER' CASE. The first case I bought for my 53 Telecaster was the look a like, it fit all of them fine.

Dan

Maybe that 12 string headstock added 1/2"?

I contacted the manufacturer, and told them about it. They weren't aware. I have two other NON Fender guitars, that don't fit, The Fender I do have Fits.
Ironically after Market cases fit both, the genuine Fender tweed case, ONLY FITS FENDER. 1/2" come on fender give me break.
