Here is my newest creation. A full leather cover for a Fender Telecaster. So tell me what you think. There are things I wish I had done differently but overall I am content with it.

That's purdy! I've got a pick guard waiting in the midst for my carving.

Enjoy

Thanks!

I actually have another one sitting in the shop that I am about to start on. It is based on Waylon's black and white tele. I can't wait to get it finished because I think it is going to look really cool. I am going to use a little thicker leather on this one so I can really give it more depth.

Beautiful work. I have a question. What effect does the leather have on the quality of sound and would heavier leather have more effect?

Sorry I forgot about checking on this thread.

It doesn't so long as you use wood spacers under the important parts and insulate the electronic parts. The neck, bridge and all have to be shimmed up.

Ollie Stench No there aren't any patterns like this. You just have to lay out the pattern to work around the parts.

Thanks. That's what I thought. I think I'm gonna start with just a pickguard and work my way up to a whole case.

Worked in a prison for 30 years if I aint shiny every time I comment its no big deal, I just don't wave pompoms.

@JDsimms55 Love the control knobs!

Surely there's a backstory to that project. I'm interested even if nobody else is...
