    Finally got the pickups in and final setup completed.
    It plays and sounds awesome. Love the extended scaled!
    Pickups are nice and suit the sound of it well..If i dont end up selling it, ill prob end up installing actives in it.

    Some pics:







    Thanks for following this build and for the comments and feedback along the way.

    Ill hopefully have a few new builds coming up shortly.

    Thanks mate.
    They're pretty hot yea. I was pretty impressed. I'm just really into Actives at the moment so I might end up swapping them out.

    The highest I've tuned this is c. Standard e is a no go cos the neck is too long. I tuned down to A and still had perfect clarity. The sound didn't go muddy or floppy at all.
    Mission accomplished lol

    Nicely done , Floodmeister.

    Tele neck looks like a flat backed D as a rough profiled neck so far.
    Nice figure throughout too. WOO HOO !!!

    Thanks guys.

    Stu, it is indeed a D. I really don't like c shaped necks. I like a bit of flatness on them. Very happy with the figure too. It pops nicely.
