Fantastic job. It will be nice to slightly round off the edges on the sides - as in real Mosrites. When are the necks coming?
-Kanad


Hello Kanad, The edges of all these bodies are all slightly rounded over as for when neck coming available. I have the neck blanks cut in rough form sitting on my work bench. I planned on getting started today after I take my wife to her Dr.s' appointment as well as getting 3 more bodies joined and clamped. I will be building 1 more Mosrite style body then 2 Telecaster deluxe style bodies. I might keep the fourth one though and build a complete instrument from as I have people wanting to see a finished product. If I get serious interest in the necks though I'll push them to the front of the line. Thanks, Kevin

Here is an example of the Tele bodies I build for anybody interested. This one is made of Honduran Mahogany.

Hi Kevin:
The rounding on the edges are a little more pronounced - I would guess 1/4 inch radius. Looking forward to seeing the necks.

Yeah I didn't go too crazy on the round over. I put an 1/8" round over on the back edge and put a soft edge on the front.
