Building A Custom Electric Guitar From Scratch (Full Telecaster Thinline Build)

Hi! My name is Andrew and after finishing my first semester of college, I decided to build an electric guitar. I am by no means an expert on guitar building and there are many spots in which there are many blemishes but I hope maybe one day I'll get better. But anyways, thank you to my sister and dogs for modeling my guitar, thank you to my friend for letting me borrow his scroll saw, and thank you to my dogs for keeping me company. I hope y'all enjoy this silly video! Also sorry for the bad audio and video quality! Video Editing is HARD!

What a beauty, unbelievable! Gongratulations!!!

Nice work, by the way the tall tuners are meant to be for the bass strings

[@kukulkan1717]

Yes!

[@JohnZeus-fi4em]

This is beautiful :) Great job!!

Very well done Andrew. Great work on a pretty complex build. Also your video is exactly the right length and amount of detail. Maybe a list of products used would be good, but I fully realize what a can of worms that opens up. If you are going to do that, consider a few sponsorship requests and make an extra buck, whist also gaining some visibility. Thanks for your efforts, great job all around. RR

Amazing job, but for a bolt on guitar I would have built the body and purchased a pre made neck with fretboard, but to each his own. I've designed and built four guitars, the neck is most critical and most work. Mine were glued in necks so I really couldn't order one or know where to order them at the time. Your a master wood worker for sure. 👍👍👍

Hello friend. Beautiful guitar but the neck binding is used to hide the tang slots. Nest time I would suggest nipping the ends of the tang and cutting the fret slots before applying the binding. It's still a quality build though

Argh! grave errore tagliare il binding per inserire i tasti

[@wendymunns1639]

😅

[@5150TJT]

Why did you cut fret slots thru the binding 😬

[@Donnybrook10]
