Prairie Custom Guitars

Custom Made Tele® Style Guitars

The BrettleCaster

This is a left handed rear routed t-style

I kind of skipped the actual build pics,they are probably getting boring

We will start here with the routed body with sealer on it

Here you can see the rear route and tummy cut

 

 

There is also a forearm contour

 

 

This is to be tinted for the aged natural look

You can see the tint on the neck.We want to try

to get the body close to that same color

 

 

After a couple light coats of amber and a real light burnt sienna

I think we have the "been in the smokey bar too much" look

 

 

It was decided after a few different ones,this is the

style of guard we are going to use,cut for a humbucker of course 

 

The original plan was a single coil sized humbucker in the bridge

Well we have changed that,these are going in there now 

 

On with some build pics!

 

Nice and tight! 

 

Got to get some lacquer scraped out so we have a good fit

 

 

Some Schaller lockers 

Time to get buff

 

 

Getting things lined up

 

 

 

 

I wasn't going to post a pic of this but that the hell
