CBG 11 - Telecaster 4 String

Oak and ipe neck, maple fret board and bridge, Wichita Sam corian nut, and telecaster neck pickup. Just need to finish up the knobs and she'll be all done. Sounds great and has a sustain that seems to go on forever!

    Thanks guys!  Ipe is a really hard South American wood that's great for decking (I have some leftovers from a project a few years back).    Here's a site with some good info about the wood. http://www.advantagelumber.com/ipedecking.htm  I'm not sure where to get it in smaller quantities.  Just need to use carbide tip tools and saws and pre-drill all screw holes - the stuff is so hard it will dull normal drills and saws and snap screws in a hearbeat.
