Ignore the noise and do your thing. I've assembled my own guitars with authentic Fender parts and hardware and saved a ton of money.

I'm surprised you pay attention to silly comments. Continue doing your own thing. Nice job. 👍 I'm certain you can build a nicer guitar than you could buy.

I'm believing I can do this and hope for a great product of a reflection of myself so that I can play something that I built myself. Thanks for the inspiration man.

Amazingly beautiful build, well done! Keep it up!

Seeing that Electro-Socket get installed is so satisfying.

Nice guitar and a nice build. For me, i like the brass compensated saddles on a tele its kind of part of the whole tele sound/vibe. Tnx for the video verry nice to see.👌🏼

Great video. Thanks for taking the time!!! I'm making a Tele too.

Nice build, I’ve assembled a jazzmaster , just under the 700 in the past and I love it. Doing a tele next with a squier neck Resale value will never be high. But to build something with your own specs in mind, and save a lot of money as well is the bonus

Excellent video and really cool built. Well done.

Nice build. You can be assured that you have a great, personalized guitar, every bit as good, if not better, than a Fender model. And for less. Which brings me to my point. That is, it be even less costly and with no less quality, if you purchased the neck also from GFX. Save $200 right there. Many high quality components every bit as worthy as name brand, also could be used to save on expense without sacrificing quality. I really like the body and neck by GFX, as well as some Tonerider pickups, and electronics that are as good as 920D. Love the color. I'm getting same thing.

Nicely done 👍 looks and sounds awesome 😎

Great Video! I just put together a parts-caster myself and used mostly Fender parts. But, I have seen a ton of positive stuff on the XGP bodies that I will need to try one. Nice sounding guitar!

Nice build man. Looks and sounds fantastic

All around well done (video and guitar)....thanks for the links to the parts - thinking of doing a build myself so this was good!

That dusky rose looks great. Been looking at the shell pink XGP body and getting Fender Player parts from The Stratosphere for my next "build".

Thank you for the well made video -- feeling inspired

great job

I like it!

Shit, I took a bullet squire that had a real thin chincy neck and bought an $89 Glarry Thinline just for the neck. Reshaped the headstock, dropped in some Guitar Madness quarter pound pickup, didn't even have to touch the frets which shocked me. Now you can put it down -if you're into 50's necks. Thing is 10 times the instrument it was with that stock neck.

Is that you playing guitar for the background music? Your playing is wonderful. Thanks for sharing this process!! I probably won't build my own tele, but I will steal some of your licks. 🙂

Sounds great! Bravo!

Great Channel Great Content....... you could have top loaded it with a gotoh bridge

beautiful sounding guitar...and overall beautiful build... curious about the input jack plate though.. did it not go into the body all the way? seemed like 1/8" sticking out or something. about to try building one of these myself and wondering what to look out for.

Should have put a neck with a rosewood or ebony fretboard on it! Maple fretboards just make a guitar look cheap!

Very nice work.

Nice

Sweet !

Great job ! What is the final weight of that new built Tele ?

I want a Tele myself... I have a almost new Fender Stratocaster Ultra American wich I am selling to get me a Tele, but I dunno anymore if I will buy off shelf or if I should do like you here; go for a parts-build... hmm!? Those choices!? :) -Nevertheless: Tnx for a great video! - Keep 'em comin'! -AP from Norway

So the fender neck bolts right into those? I'm thinking of getting a roasted maple neck for my Mexican made HH and making a parts caster with the stock neck.

Very nice build, I have the same xgp body in lake placid blue, which is a vintage specification and the modern bridge is the same as yours and gives me 25.5 plus 1/8, could you explain how you did it? Thank you

I’m about to do my first Strat build. Do you ever have problems with the finish cracking or breaking when you pre drill the screw holes?

spent way too much- other necks are as good or better and cheaper -

ive never been able to get gfs to accept payment..

If you are building a guitar that you like the sound of finished guitar then how can it be crap. Oh by the way what's going on with the horrible colour of the body😁

a guitar has no input 🤪

As a guitar builder, I feel you're using the wrong term for what you're doing. You are actual "assembling" a guitar as opposed to "building" one. I can see you have that stated in your text but not in your commentary.
