Description: This is a BEAUTIFUL CHERRY ON ALDER Telecaster compatible body. CHERRY drop TOP with chambered, MULTIPIECE ALDER BACK section making it a lightweight body. Routed for STD VINTAGE single-coil BRIDGE AND HUMBUCKER NECK PUP. This body will look GREAT with a clear coat finish. STAIN it to make the grain POP even more. YOU WILL RECEIVE THE EXACT BODY THAT IS SHOWN IN THE PICTURES. Check the pics carefully and message with any questions. NOTE: THE BACK IS A 7-PIECE ALDER GLUE UP. SOLID. It was accurately made in the USA to vintage specifications and is 1 3/4" thick. This body has its edges rounded over with a the standard 1/8in radius. It includes a 7/8in diameter output jack without flat. String through holes drilled for vintage style 4 hole mount bridge, with standard string ferrule counter-bores, such as those available from StewMac.com. We do a DOUBLE-COUNTER-BORE so that the string ferrules sit flush with the body after installation. Both 3 or 4 hole bridges can be used as these holes are drilled by the finisher. HOWEVER, the E to E string spacing of this body is 2.125in. DOUBLE check the bridge that you will be using to insure that it has a 2.125in string spacing. Some 3 hole mount bridges may use a slightly different string spacing, and even some custom 4 hole mount bridges. Most vintage bridges will use a 2.125in E to E string spacing. For convenience, 1/8in dia neck pilot holes have been added with standard spacing. Double check your neck screws before drilling. Neck pocket is 2 3/16in width 5/8in deep and should fit all Telecaster compatible necks. Telecaster replacement necks manufactured by Mightymite and those available directly from Fender have been confirmed to fit snug in these bodies. All bodies have been well sanded to 120 grit+. Additional sanding and sealing before finishing, and fitting of aftermarket parts will be required. This CHERRY AND ALDER body weighs A VERY LIGHT 3 LB 6 OZ. A VERY light weight for an electric guitar body. NOTE: PIECES OF SCRAP WOOD ARE INCLUDED FOR experimenting with different finishes. Study the pictures closely and email with any questions. In some of the pictures, the body was wetted with water to highlight the grain and simulate what a clear coat finish might look like.
