This guitar has been a makeover of our first completed guitar. It features a Schaller Flagship and piezo saddles ...

I've been very quiet around here the past few years, but I did make a couple neat things in that time. This is one of those things.

Thats one of the nicest tele-ish builds I've seen on this fourm. Are the dots on the fretboard glowing? Either way, super classy...

Awesome Deadpool guitar

Great work! Did you have to get the string through block on the back custom made? I've been looking for something like that since installing a Hannes, it looks cleaner than the individual ferrules I think.


Sorry for the doublepost, I have not been on here in forever haha.
