Oh sure, keep tempting us with more cool projects! I’m getting good at not finishing anything I start.🎸🎸🎸
😝🎸👍
Like me with my pedal soldering kit that has been sitting for like a month? 😅
A very comprehensive and entertaining video. I’m certainly willing to try doing a build like this now. Awesome job, Landon.
Go for it!
This is exactly what I would like to do with my 60s vibe squire telecaster, inspired by EC blind faith guitar. Just really like the look of this. The tone is phenomenal, I'm sold. Thanks for the video
Whenever i drill into a headstock i use a hand drill its a pain in the ass but it gives me accuracy into how deep im making each hole
cool do what works!
This video makes me feel warm and gooey 🤔
I hope that's good!
A tool you could make good use of is a Transfer Punch. (or a set of them, they're not too expensive). These would be for marking the drill hole(s) in your neck.
Mount the neck with the two holes that came pre-drilled, then mark the neck by using a transfer punch through the body holes. A transfer punch will ensure you've got the center of the hole marked perfectly. Once marked, you can unscrew your neck and drill the holes on the press.
Thanks for the tip!
Eric Clapton had a telecaster that looked a lot like this one. He played it live at Hyde Park in '69 with Blind Faith. Maybe you have seen and heard it before. Great tone from that guitar and he used the neck pickup or both the whole time. I don't know if his was the early wiring or normal wiring.
I've seen a video with him talking about it. very cool
That same body arrived at my house this morning for my first build. Thanks for the guides.
sweet! have fun
This guitar is like when people buy new jeans but they are torn and faded, but you can tell it's new.. I like it.
I went to school with Jack Ferrule. 5:56
his sister is Jill I believe.
My favorite of all you guitar builds
it was fun and a challenge
I'm subscribed... only channel that can make guitar assembly videos funny and entertaining (in addition to being informative). Thanks!
Welcome aboard!
Have you thought about building pickups? It's really rewarding and not too difficult. I started building pickups this year and I'm officially addicted.
I thought about it right now when I'm typing this. that was it
@@landonbailey stewmac sells kits. would be a cool vid!
Landon if it's your custom telecaster, isn't it a Lancaster? 😂😂
I'm sorry I couldn't help myself. The joke was too easy
🤪 actually you almost had it. I call this one Burt.
@@landonbailey and this is why you are great😂
@@landonbailey Ha!
I would love to build my own Firebird.
Awesome looking Tele. Get yourself a small mallet with the black and yellow heads. Cheap at Princess Auto. Use it to pound in the string ferrules and tuner bushings.
I have a little mallet. good tip! cheers
I caught you laughing at your situation at the 15 minute. The hardest part is getting it out of the box! 😆
Says basically people are going to complain about doing another telecaster…. His response “it doesn’t matter”😂😂…. Dude, I subscribed yesterday and enjoy your content and your humor! Great video, thanks!
thanks for the sub!
8:15 I've never been able to see mint green in any photo or video. They always look similar to parchment for me. Maybe it's my computer monitor, because when seeing one IRL they do look minty fresh.
I have another mint pickguard that has shades of green. this one doesn't though.
I enjoy your guitar builds / assemblies. Keep them coming.
Glad you like them!
excellent tutorial Landon....you know your tele washer and dryer stuff!
Thanks for watching!
Very well done-excellent video demonstrating entire process of building a guitar from parts-great teaching,thank you. And also appreciate your usual dry humorous commentary throughout.
Very welcome!
nice playing landon
I see everyone’s suggestions for tapping in the tuner bushings but you could also use you clamps to ease them in or a smaller clamp with protection for the wood surfaces. White is neutral, black and red are hot
👍🎸
A very informative video, to be sure. I should have searched Amazon for a video like this when I built the Telecaster I did several years ago. Mine turned out fine without it, but it would have definitively saved me one big headache. When I turned the amp on it was extremely loud with electrostatic noise. So loud that it couldn't be left that way. I realized at that time, that I forgot the one ground wire to the body of the guitar. Once I added the ground wire, it was actually very quiet. I got that copper shielding tape, and shielded all of the guitar cavities. Some of the parts I used different were, roller string trees. I used locking tuners, and individual saddles. But, I decided to use individual saddles, only for intonation reasons. The others like the one's in this video look more traditional. The cost is not much different for either. That part really just depends on what look you are going for. So anyone who thinks you need to be a professional, I can back this gentleman up here on this video. You do not need to be a Luthier. This guy did a solid job on this guitar, and so can you!
hey thanks for sharing! anyone can do these :)
Missed this one! 👍🏼💪🏼
All good
@@landonbailey ye all good in the hood, I’ll just go back and watch them all again, nothing weird about that 😁
I had just decided to do this!
nice! have fun 🎸👍
incredible Gibson Les Paul
😄🎸🤣. 🤯🤯
It's so rad to see you be the blossoming guitar lily of youtube, bro.
oh hey thanks! I'm probably more of a Dandelion, but I appreciate it!
Claptonian vibes with this build
sounds like a planet 😄
So plunky and twangy. I love it!
it's got that Tele twang for sure
Landon, Awesome brother.. good stuff
Appreciate it!
Been here since you started great 👍 channel I mean I used to build Shector strats n' tele's in the late 70'z lol if you ask me they were the 1st company to sell parts for a build ...
I wonder why they use a strat headstock on these?
it's the '72 Deluxe Tele headstock, and if I had to guess, money savings back then, and just carried over for the style these days
Amazing work!! I am happy with it - ship it over.
I couldn't have done it without You...
sician. that online guitar learning app. anyways, I can just email the guitar over I think.
@@landonbailey cool - I’ll check my email
This is super cool Landon!
You seem to be Hell bent on making me do another build.
Oh man, I have too many guitars.
SAID NO ONE EVER!!!
✌👽👍🎸🎼🎵🎶🧠🌌♾
I have 2 many. I need 3 many. 😁
I just need "One more", I told my wife that 7 guitars ago, and it's still true!
your demos are always really cool, very radioheady
cheers!
Yes please keep doing these make as many telecasters as you want awesome videos
how about a Jazzmaster?
@@landonbailey Yes! a jazzmaster would be an excellent! We would love to see one put together from scratch, definitely a guitar I would be interested in especially with the tremolo and the bridge I know those would need extra details on that
Doing a GREAT JOB
MIKE
GLARRY MUSIC CANADA
thanks Mike!
What a fantastic video and 'how to' :)
Thank you! Cheers!
Yep black felt in that guitar
same!
Hey Landon, you're funny! I like your sense of humour. Made me smile. I have a MIM Tele off the rack, but would really like to customize one some day. Thanks for a well spent 50 minutes. Quite enjoyed the show and will be back! Kind regards from the west coast of Kanada! ss
awesome! and you spelled humour correctly! 🇨🇦🎸😄
Enjoyed that - didn't seem like nearly an hour!
You seem to take your time and that will often stop any disastrous mistakes. The solderless electric component kits save a lot of time. Set up does take time though and you got it done fine.
I like the pre-worn neck but I'm not keen on large Fender headstocks on tele bodies but that's just my personal aesthetic taste.
Your videos are very well made and you must put a lot of time into them - well done.
Entertaining and informative - thanks.
cheers!
Just how BIG is this video? Let me know when you have it finished Landon and I'll volunteer to relic it for you...that will take about 20 years so let me know when you need my address! I relic guitars with picks only...it takes a long time
I will email it as soon as that's a thing! 😄👍
LOL Yosemite. I see what you did there. LOL Great video. I'm about to do this myself. Thanks
As a german I think now about the right way to say "Marmite" when I will visit the UK someday... :D
You can do it!
@@LordNeonhelmchen I believe they pronounce it ve-ge-mite. ;-)
You can take Sharpie off a lot of plastics/other stuff with a Dry Erase Marker. Just draw over it and wipe with a paper towel. The guitar looks awesome, sounds great on Where Is My Mind and Paranoid Android. I took the Yosemite Humbucker Neck (Too Muddy)/Tele Bridge (sounded good) set out of my Performer and threw in a Twisted Tele set with a 4 Way Switch based on your build videos.
ya those dry erase markers will take anything off. the chemicals in them are kind of scary. Ya Twisted Tele are awesome. I'm possible thinking of a p90 in the neck of this one in the future.
@@landonbailey Fralin and Lollar both make a really good Humbucker sized P90. I'm building a Jazzmaster HH right now that I almost got the P90 Humbucker for.
Some people DO see green when looking at the pickguard! One of my Telecasters (30yeas old), is Olympic White, with a mint green pickguard, and when she refers to it, she asks "the Green One?"
I have another mint pickguard that does look green. held up side by side, this one looked more white
next time, use your drill press to push bushings down (make sure drill press is off...)
🎸👍
Awesome video ! Landon , what are the thoughts on the Yosemite pickups ?
hey thanks! they have a very traditional Tele sound. I like it
Sounds like you've been to the Bill Murray school of humor. Great job on the build. Is it really a Clapton tribute guitar? I think you saved a lot of money with this build. Keep up the good work!
I didn't realize it was a Clapton inspired model until after I put it together.
If you use a wound g string it's easier to set your intonation on a vintage tele bridge
hey thanks for the tip! I had to look it up. that's the first time I've hear of a wound G string
Yeah in the 50's they were still using the same strings as acoustic which use a wound g and the g share the same saddle as the d string they also used flatwounds alot
Any chance of you making a video on building a Parts Tele with less expensive parts than Fender?
no plans to, but it's possible some day
best commentary ever !
I keep it real
Post before watching - I am hoping for stop motion at some point. loves stop motion.
😄 not in this one!
@@landonbailey considering you spent anywhere from 60-90 hours editing this awesome video I will forgive it. This time ;)
@@SeanAllocca ha ya. this one took a ton of time :)
Why do Strat and Tele bodies have that extra hole below the pickup cavities? If it is for space to add an extra switch on the pickguard why don't they include a channel for the wiring?
The extra hole tells you it's a MIM body.
I believe it's used in part of the manufacturing process. like an anchor point for something. I'm sure someone knows for sure
When I drill into any finished wood surface I clamp a thin piece of wood over the spot I want to drill and any lift from the drilling happens to the piece I throw away instead of the actual headstock leaving a perfect hole on the instrument...you do good work Landon...
appreciate the tips! quick question, the piece of wood you put on top has already been drilled right?
@@landonbailey It wouldn't have to be if it were marked and clamped in the right spot but it would still protect from lift...I use something like a piece of cedar shake would that's not two thick..I think either way you'd get the same result as the clamps would keep the surface wood from bubbling up..or firring
Hi Landon! Great video, as usual. Quick question from a fellow Canuck: how do you get Sweetwater to ship to Canada? I thought they didn’t do that.
hey there! I believe there are restrictions on certain brands. I don't have a clear picture on the whole thing. I've bought things from them since 2015, usually when the dollar is good.
Thank you for this great video! Question if you have a couple minutes: how hard would it be to swap a tele single coil for a humbucker on the neck... in the new Nashville Player Plus? It would seem for example that changing the wire(s) for the Hum to 500K might get involved?
Hey there! that's a good question. I'm thinking of maybe putting a P90 eventually, which sometimes calls for a 1K pot. However, to add a humbucker, you'd need a different pickguard with the humbucker slot, then ya it would be a pain to change out the 250K pot (and 1K in my case)
Thanks for getting back! Yeah a p90 would be great on the neck, so you'd put an extra resistor on the wire? And for the tele series bridge / neck switch, do you know if that requires additional wiring? NP if you're too busy to answer, your videos are really great and cool.
Another great build!! Looks and sounds amazing. I have a quick question, when setting up the string action, are you setting it around the 1.5 mark on the sting height gauge there? I have a tele that I need to set the action on and it looks like none of these handy gauges have 1.6 marked on them. Thanks from the EaSt Coast eh!!
cheers! yes 1.6 I probably meant to say it during the video.
@@landonbailey most excellent! Thank you Sir!
Nicely done. I noticed the neck is micro tilt ready. Have you any experience with micro tilt? I normally use shims but micro tilt would be easier.
I've never added shims, nor used the micro tilts
Landon*: This video is so big...
Us: How big is it?
Landon: It's so big that...(enter punchline here)
Drums: Ba-ding-ding!
😳🤯🤣
That is a nice build. Now if I only got someone sponsoring me with parts 🤣
I liked the specs you selected and the video was both informational and entertaining.
I probably would make use of the humbucker neck mic routing and mid mic routing to build something a bit Nashville style with a humbucker neck mic just to make the guitar more versatile, but each to his own. Hmmm... a P-rail neck mic... Noooo! got to resist the temptation 😬
Thanks! 👍 I consider myself super lucky to be sponsored for this. I've paid out of pocket for all the previous builds. I may mod the neck pickup at some point for a p90 pickup :)
@@landonbailey How about a mini humbucker, that'd be special IMHO.
Nice job!!! When are you going to assemble the 'AnimalCaster'?
he has the pink PRS all to himself right now!
@@landonbailey HAHAHA!!!
I’ve always wondered, what about shielding is so important?🤔
just to help reduce unwanted electrical noise. or to help create would peace. one of those probably
You could have used a block of wood and a hammer to properly seat those tuner bushings, other than that, a really nice looking guitar build.
Thanks for the tip
Do the tele deluxe necks fit strata by chance? I’ve heard they’re pretty slim and I have smaller hands (only 7.5 inches long! 😱😱)
they should fit yes
Landon, Is it possable to get a Roadworn neck with a tele headstock and 9.5 radius? If not RW do you know of an alternative?
I think they only do the 7.25 " radius. What were you looking for in terms of alternative, like a comparable neck finish feeling?
@@landonbailey yes. I’ve been eyeing a butterscotch nitro build with roasted or aged 9.5 neck.
Landon...awesomeness as always...am I correct in saying you saved about $400-500 dollars by doing this yourself??
hey there! it's tough to make a direct comparison, because the Mod Shop is all USA made and assembled. But ya roughly that amount for just the parts.
Sweetwater won’t ship to me in Canada lol . But I love the build videos
oh hey! I've been ordering from them since 2015. Are you in a remote area? I've heard that before
I promiss to watch the whole video and I realize you might cover this, but did you have a target weight and if so what weight body did you seek?
I didn't, and you don't know the body weight when you order a Fender part like that
@@landonbailey Okay, and I realized that I watched and Liked this video a year ago. 😆
Shouldn't the ferrules be flush with the wood surface?
not always
Hey big fan of the channel, new subscriber here. I was just curious why you never really shape the nuts on these guitar build videos.
hey there! what you see in the first is the first quick setup. I always go back and do more work on the nut as needed. that can mean more filing and rolling the corners
I got the Relic joke!
🎸🇨🇦🤪
Landon, if you ever get a "Nick" in your "Relic" Telecaster, you won't be able to take it into town to get fixed. Why? Because they live in "Gibsons".
cannot tuna fish i laughed my ass off!!
Holy Moose, that's a lot of chapters...looks like a badly fragmented hard drive back in the day...anyone remember HDDs ? you won't find them on Tikfok. Great video so far (6:53min in...). Since I should be sleeping already, this should help and then I'll rewatch what I already memorized in my half-sleep like a lazy hound with one brain side asleep and the other side alert at all times.
🤣 my chapters have chapters
@@landonbailey here comes the bad part: I didn't fall asleep but actually watched it through the end....
What do you do with all these projects flip them?
Most of them so far yes
@@landonbailey interesting, I just did my first build a fiesta red Strat, came out extremely well (used Gary Moore’s Strat as inspiration) & I enjoyed the process so I was wondering if there was a market for nice well thought out partscasters. ✌️
vintage-style split shaft tuners are the best tuners
what does best mean?
@@landonbailey for me, easist to restring and also pretty handy for quickly doing something under the hood and popping them back on
I've wanted to do this forever, wondering if its worth it to buy all the parts and assemble a guitar, or just buy the finished guitar tho...wouldn't the cost be pretty close to buying a fender new, once you get all the parts ...I'm always bouncing back and forth between Warmoth, Stew Mac and Ebay/Amazon parts
it really depends what you buy and spend. You can spend more than the price of a new guitar on a neck if you wanted :)
Why a Telec Custom ( Strat) neck on two single coils?
Tele Deluxe! because Telecaster 👍🎸😁
To be honest I like road worn on on old well played guitars it's getting 😤😤 a bit boring as everyone is overdoing it on new guitars .
New word for Landon-Built: "Assembuild"
That being said; what was the total cost for this Assembuild?

Are 9 -42 still okay for downtuning? Still not sure if I like 10-46 and I play in drop C a lot.
I don't know. I only tune standard
@@landonbailey fair enough, some of the bands I like I have to down tune a good bit for their songs Eg :Seether, Killswitch Engage, Three days grace, Red Jump Apparatus. Ect
when I try to learn a new song and I see it's a step down or drop D, I usually get turned away because of laziness
@@landonbailey haha
What another telecaster? What? Thanks!
I might want to do this.
😆 I'm looking to maybe do a Jazzmaster next time. we'll see

WOW! you really killed on this Build Landon. Now this is the kind of content I dont mind paying for. wait, Im not paying for content. But now if I was paying for content, this content, I wouldn't mind paying for. As long as it doesn't go over $1.25 cause honestly that would be too much for any content. except if Jesus uploaded it. LOL
🤣😆🎸👍
Your comment made me so content I had to comment.
As a teacher who has "occasionally" used permanent markers on whiteboards (ahem), there *is* a way to get it off polished or plastic-y thing. Go over the permanent ink with a whiteboard marker - then rub clean. It may take a few goes and you might then want to use alcohol to get rid of smears, but it works.
🤣🎸👍

That is a really cool build. Nice choice on color. I sure wouldn't shun it away for sure.
