The Thin TL Style Kit is the perfect choice for the classic TL lover. Featuring a thin body crafted from ash and featuring the classic f-hole cutaway. The kit is designed to be lightweight (which was the original reason for adding the cutaway), making it comfortable to play for long sessions. The body is crafted for tone retention and that classic TL sound.

This was my first ever build, and I gotta say this was an amazing experience for me.
I owned a lot of guitars over the years, but there is something special about making something your own.
In this case, I grabbed a replacement flame maple neck (which thankfully fits almost perfectly), switched out the control plate for a traditional tele style, and make my own pickguard out of some veneered plywood.
This guitar inspired me so much I actually ended up making some music with it:

The quality was excellent. No scratches, no dents and the neck was perfect. I upgraded the pickups and the control knob hardware, which I always do and ordered a different pick guard to suit my taste. There was nothing wrong with the stock equipment. After doing a complete setup I was amazed at how well it sounded. Perfect intonation all the way up the neck. This is my favorite guitar now. I am getting ready to buy another one.

I'm just starting to stain and finish it, so I haven't actually had a chance to play it yet. But what I see so far is great, I can't wait to see the finished product. Everything looks quality and complete.
