I had this old Telecaster body and neck that has been hanging around in my shop for many years. I received it from a friend who started finishing it, but lost interest in the project. I decided to strip off the old finish and bring it back to life. Join me as I completely overhaul this Tele partscaster build and make it a great player once again! Thanks for watching.
