2011 TDPRI Build Challenge - Some Cool stuff

**gadlaw** · 04-16-2011, 12:19 PM

Was just over at the Telecaster forum Hutch and Wolf and others have mentioned a while back and found their Telecaster Build Challenge. Individual threads by individual folks building their own Telecasters. Worth a browse if you're in any way interested in building your own or like me just love seeing them built. I would if I could. But until that motivation comes to me, here is the link and here are some pics. http://www.tdpri.com/forum/2011-tdpr...ild-challenge/

A few built guitars, a lot of pictures of pieces with drills and clamps and sanding stuff. There's one in there with a resonator cone on it.

TDPRI is a good forum with a lot of good information...but there are the "brand snobs" over there where if it's not a name brand or endorsed by a big name then it's garbage...But I made quite a few friends there including 2 "big names" in the guitar world...Brent Mason & James Wilsey. Brent played with Vince Gil & Alan Jackson. You probably know James work from Chris Isaak's 90's hit Wicked Game. Wilsey played the guitar on that album & also has his one instrumental album out called El Dorado....
