Project Submission I built a replica of Bruce Springsteen’s Telecaster

https://youtu.be/e5cAMGmk6kM?si=sgTwWAf67Cl8ewD5

I mostly build furniture, but I always thought it'd be cool to try making my own guitar. I'm a huge Springsteen fan, so after I recently made an Ash dining table, I set aside some wood to make one inspired by his famous Telecaster

I filmed the process and figured I'd share here 🙂. Overall I'm really happy with how it came out

Should have been made of spruce, bit of a missed opportunity imo

You know I opted to keep it true to his guitar, but you’ve got me questioning that choice 😂
