My latest two builds couldn't be more different. The first is a Tele style, bolt neck and the second is a Singlecut style setneck. Here are a few pictures and a bit of description.
This Tele style bolt on neck has a 24.562" scale Port Orford cedar neck with a Machiche fretboard. The Fret markers are maple. The body is old growth Douglas Fir with a Port Orford cedar drop top with white binding. The hardware, including the fretwire is gold. The pickups are Dimarzio Cruisers. Burst finish with shellac French polish top coats.

This singlecut, set neck guitar is modeled more on a PRS than a Les Paul. It has a 24.562" scale neck made up of mahogany, maple and walnut laminations. Very stable. The body is one piece mahogany, with a Big Leaf Maple drop top. The wraparound bridge is a Gotoh 510-- great bridge. Vintage Gotoh tuners. The pickups are amazing: Seymour Duncan Antiquity P90. Clear Shellac finish.
