DIY Project: Building a Partscaster Electric Guitar

This blog is to document my DIY project of building a Telecaster-style electric guitar from prefabricated parts. As I'm not really experienced in the building of string instruments, I decided not to completely build the guitar from scratch, but to buy an inexpensive neck and body, and modify, assemble and make adjustments to my liking.
