New Year, New Build!
Enjoy :)
Speaking of Surf Green, I've been drooling wanting the 70th Anniversary Esquire...the pickup sounds amazing on that beauty!
Thank Darrell for the vid. I'm a big fan of GFS. Happy new year!
An Esquire would be pretty awesome!
I want to build my own kit thinline tele for my first electric guitar.
Everything looks of good quality. Where is the control plate?
I’m not allowed to buy another guitar... but build one? ;)
Yay for loopholes! 😂😂😂
It's easier to slip parts past the guard(s.)
I'm still in the "should I or shouldn't I" phase as well. Plus all the amber necks are gone. Heh, built-in pause button. I now have plenty of time to overthink and pro-or-con it to death...it's what I do.
Know that feeling! And there's a whole year before you can sneak one under the tree from Santa. Go for it!
@@Xubuntu47 don't look at a warmoth neck...
I've always wanted a tele. Might try this, thanks Darrell

GFS's prebuilt Xaviere line of guitars is also really excellent and affordable, if you want a Tele style without having to build it. I have one of them and its wonderful.
@@ahriik yeah i might have a look at those because i wouldn't be a big fan of drilling the holes
@@seanb2108 im from scratch building a tele, and tbh its rough. Their setups are pretty easy compared to making/shaping/cutting a body. Bought my neck, but am doung the rest myself. If youre good hands on, do it if you like it, but tbh buy them almost complete if you have any worries. At least at first. This will be my first full build, but ive bolted a few together like this build will be. It is fun and rewarding, but its not the easiest the first go around.
Been buying Guitarfetish stuff for over 10 years. They have great stuff. Do it yourself and do it right, will go up against any over priced brand named equipment.
True. Their pickups are as good as anything you can buy.
I had a bit of a bad experience where they shipped me a strat neck when I ordered a tele. They were a bit standoffish and wanted to know how I knew that and I needed to send pictures. So I explained, sent the pics and they said “oh yeah; that’s a strat neck” and sent me a replacement. The replacement is functionally great-the best thing on the parts build it’s on- but the fingerboard is full of ugly dents and flaws. It just looks like trash. I was too tired to bother trying to send it back.
I thought teles were hideous old school guitars for years but now I have an esquire coming in the mail and i see the beauty in the simplicity, can't wait!!
Never get rid of the last scene from your intro,the one where you fall in the snow,it's awesome
I agree but what about throwing the guitar up on the roof. Let's keep that too.
Guitarfetish is a go to for me. I see they used this in a post today. They should put together a DBG kit for us fans of you both.
And of course at a nice price point!! LOL $100
You have no idea how long I've been waiting for this! A quality youtuber reviewing a GFS that's never been better. With their "pro" line of guitars and the new XGP line of parts GFS is stepping up their game and I'm glad you've taken the time to broadcast it
A friend of mine has finally decided for a Tele and you begin the year with the greatest quote for him. Keep up the good work!
Great way to start off the year in building! So cost and quality effective I believe!
I've been wanting to build a tele for 20+ years, still haven't got around to it yet.
I look forward to the next video :)
So awesome to see this build! Can't wait to see it come together!
Dude! So freaking cool. As always, love your enthusiasm and really appreciate the regard for different price points. What a fun project, can't wait to see how it develops...
This is the kind of content where your channel really shines. Psyched for this build.
This time last year I saw your build of the LP style Solo Music kit and decided to try this myself, although I had no wood working experience at all. What a great adventure with a fantastic outcome! Since then I worked up all my guitars and for this year I even plan a build from scratch. Thanks again for this literally life changing incitation! Hence, I am looking forward for this build and hope, it will inspire many people to try such a build.
Thanks, Darrell--been eyeballing these same parts to do a similar build from GFS for weeks, now I feel pretty confident in the quality. Looking forward to seeing Pt.2.
Your channel has made me have an appreciation for telecasters. Used to think they were ugly and just not worth it. Now I think they are actually really neat.
Also your enthusiasm for guitars is infectious!
in my opinion the teles are cool looking but still prolly one of the worse looking guitars. they sound great but obviously tone comes 95% from fingers and amp sooo theres that.
@@shadowx2750 fair enough. I like their look, for me my least favorite and controversial opinion, is my dislike for the look of Most Les Paul's. They look like you walked into your grandmas garage and picked up old furniture and made it into a guitar. Kinda Fuddy duddy to me. But that's just mo.
@@Madchris8828 personally, i love les paul looks
@@shadowx2750 I like their tone they produce. Nothing quite sounds like a les Paul. Some paint jobs I don't mind. Just not the stereotypical wooden tone.
@@Madchris8828 hahah Les Paul’s do have a different look for sure. I really love the looks of SGs horns and even the shallower revstars. If only there were more parts for those like there are for telles and strats
I legit got excited when the neck fit the body. So clean too.
I’ve debating between getting some budget tele or building my own since early December. With you doing this I feel like I have now a path to follow. Thanks!
Let’s build it! Can’t wait! I love gfs. Built at least 3 guitars and modified all my squiers with their pickups .
Thanks to you Darrell I just got my Solo guitar Explorer kit. The kit is really clean, everything was present and fitting well and I can't wait to take up my new hobby. Should've done this years ago.
Love watching your builds Darrell! This is going to look amazing when it’s done...hopefully it wounds great too. Really looking forward to seeing the progress. This has got me jonesing to explore a build of my own.
Great looking kit, build-your-own has definitely come along leaps and bounds.
Looks like a decent kit. I have used their pickups and tuning machines and I have always been happy with them. Looking forward to the build.
I had my first Squier Strat years ago, ( I do mean years ago). which I bought used from Walter Ostanek’s music store in Niagara. I took lessons from his hired staff. Walter is Canada’s polka king. His son Ric ran the shop for years and had Long & McQuade come in, which removed the Ostanek name from the storefront
I had the guitar for a while, just taking the odd tab books to learn how to play songs. I moved around a few places, and it disappeared. Taken / stolen. I also had a flute and played the Pogues and Supertramp. I was better at that instrument.
So now.. married years later in Ottawa, with a family and with Covid going on, a lot of people including me, are getting back into hobbies, crafts and interests.
I came across your channel which is showing me options and learning in more detail how guitars work and how each pickup can really determine the sound and output of an instrument. You are also introducing people to cheaper alternatives which are more budget friendly and alternative companies other than Fender and Gibson. You also explain why the higher end guitars are more reliable and why people buy them. ( Even though they’re overpriced and you end up paying for the name or brand). But they are what they are.
If I were to pick up a budget guitar now, I’d be looking at a Harley Benton, Schecter, or Xaviere.
Guitar Fetish sells Xaviere guitars. It’s their brand. Your videos have also shown pickup systems that can be swapped in and out which can make a guitar very versatile. I clicked on a few links for the parts. Lots of choices for the build and give an instrument a unique look and sound.
Learning a lot from your channel. It’s so important to have people like you on line for those who want to learn, or those that are so detailed they want to build or rebuild instruments.
Sign from the universe lol. I haven't been following the channel as much as I used to, as my life has kind of gotten in the way of my musical pursuits, but I pulled up an old build video to show my brother, and saw that this had been posted an hour prior. Can't wait to see how it turns out! Thanks for all you do, keep up the awesome work! Hope 2021 is better for you and everyone here than 2020 was :P
Thanks for the vid! I’ve been wanting a cheap tele build for ages and i think this will be the one :)
Just got my Tele build kit from GF yesterday and I can’t wait to get started on it!
I started the year building a Stoessel lute, now a Tele. Love your stuff. I have an LPSO, I wish you could look at (been under my bed for 40 years). Thanks for your great videos.
Have tried a ton of Guitar Fetish stuff. Never been disappointed. Can’t wait to see it.
Been watching your videos a lot but this series "building a guitar" is really fun to watch and also has some some good information for a beginners like me haha, great job Darrell🔥
The parts look fantastic Darrell! Looking forward to seeing it come together. Happy New Year to you!
Happy New Year to you, Darrell and to your fam and to all of those for whom you care. May it be a great one for all.
Im going with the candy apple red with gold hardwear. Im also putting the rail pups in both neck and bridge
I actually enjoyed this, been itching for a Tele thank you Darrel
The last XGP tele build I did turned out super heavy, but I was pleased with how everything went together.
Nice! Looking forward to the next video!
This is my type of series!! Great video
Hi Darrell from the uk. I love tele's. Just ordered your parts list, this will be my first build really looking forward to this. Happy new Year and stay safe everyone.
Love Guitar Fetish. Been customizing my "budget" guitars with their parts for years.
Thanks for this. I wasn't sure about trying GF but once you put the neck in the pocket and it fit pretty good I put an order in right away. Can't wait for it to get here. And the next episode of your build.
Great start to 2021! Now I gotta get some XGP bits to do a build for myself. Thanks Darrell.
This years begins well !!!! Can't wait for the next video....
This is perfect! I just ordered the parts for a surf green tele deluxe build from GF last week. I will be using a Warmoth baritone neck though. Looking forward to seeing the results Darrell!
Looking forward to this build.
I want to do this, Canada man. Your video is giving me confidence, Thank you!
So cool! My last Tele build was also a surf green body and vintage nitro maple neck. I put a white-black-white pearloid scratch plate on it and vintage Klusson tuners, plus Lace Sensor pups. Great guitar. Wish I hadn’t sold it....
I just bought the Monoprice Indio Tele and polished the frets , filed the few fret ends that needed it , installed the Fender Tex-Mex Tele pickups and did a good set-up on it and let me tell you Darrell that guitar plays and sound amazing , it's my first Tele so I'm pretty darn impressed as it's my blues machine now ! Funny thing is I got the Tele because I didn't have one and really never thought I'd like it that much but here I am , loving it!
Was going to order a G&L ASAT special in green but times are a bit rocky and I need to go low budget. This video is perfect timing as I was unsure what parts to order for a tele build. Thanks so much Darrell!
Teles are so simple and still so perfect
Really good video. Really enjoyed.
Love the channel Because of you I bought a Spark amp Absolutely Love it! A Indio classic to hot rod Got it today, a Glarry tele copy to customize! Thanks for all the help!
The friendliest guy on the internet 👍
Looking forward to this next New Years build 👀
I've had this idea floating around but with a bass. I might finally get around to doing it now.
Amazing neck fit.
Good vid.Looking forward to the next. Take it easy on the “So Yea’s” !!!!
Happy new year Darrel. Love your videos keep it up!!
Bea ...utiful ...you did good picking out parts and color ...I luv it!
Love your mad Guitar vids
Great! I'll watch you put yours together before I do mine. I've had these parts from Guitar Fetish for about a year now, so it's time to get it done. My neck did not fit the body quite as nicely as yours, but a little sanding and it's good to go.
Idk why but seeing you buylding it makes me quite happy
Happy New Year Darrell. I love your videos. I always learn something new.
Awesome video. Thank you.
Hi Darrell! Thanks so much for the awesome videos! I'm saving up for a guitar. I'm a fan!
Happy new year Darrell, thanks for all the trouble, making these wonderful videos. T. Oz.
Happy New Year! I didn’t start the year with a budget Tele. I started with a Fender Professional ll Deluxe Tele and OMG is it incredible! But, I enjoy these build videos so much, I may talk myself into trying one!! (Unless you wanna sell me that one!)
👍Nice! Congrats on the new ax!
I just ordered the surf green strat body with binding! Can wait to put it together!
That's gonna be a cool build. I'm looking forward to hearing that bridge pickup. I've been thinking about one of those rail humbuckers for my Tele partscaster.👍😎🎸🎶
Happy New Year!! This build could be epic!! Luv your channel.
Happy new year to you Mr. Darrel. Awesome project to look forward to. Wish you the very best in 2021.
Happy new. Loved the video
I know what I'm doing for a build next. Thanks for the inspiration.
My XGP neck and body fit like that also. Yours wasn't a fluke. They're just good.
Looking forward to this.
What are the odds! I just started building my very first build! And its a Tele inspired one aswell! Great vid as always! Stay safe
This is awesome Darrell! Coincidentally, I am about to start a similar Tele-style build with parts I just received from Guitar Fetish. So I'll be building along with you!
Was watching your Les Paul build just yesterday! So good
I have the lil puncher in both my teles. Best tele rail pickup ever!
Happy new year man. Looks awesome
Color of the body and neck are beautiful.
Might have to give it a shot.
Speaking of budget guitar builds, I'm still anxiously awaiting that pacifica build! As awesome as this is...
Just want to thank you for your amazing videos! Many thanks from Sweden.... :-)
Happy 2021 Darryl!
You’re a day late Darrell, already spent my disposable income on my first tele build parts order 😅
Happy New Year!
Nice video. That neck looks great.
Love your videos man keep going and happy new year 🎆🎊
Great timing! I am about to embark on a custom build of my own. Also a tele, thinline, surf green. I am being brave and going for the nitro finish
love youre videos!!
Awesome!!!
Liked the video as soon as I heard budget build
Awesome video! Gave me ideas. I am gonna start my very first build soon..Going for a Fender Subsonic baritone I think. Can’t wait to start
Will be waiting for part 2+
You cant go wrong with that color dammmnnnnnn
That looks like it's going to be a great build. I have a Squier Vintage Modified Telecaster Custom II, with 2 P-90's. I'm looking to change the wiring, and maybe a pickup, and will look into the quick connect stuff.
Can't wait!!
Sounds like fun
For anyone doing a similar project, if you have pickups of different outputs the combined output will have more of the tonal characteristics of the LOWER output pickup. (So usually the neck) I know most people use one or the other mostly.
Love the color, hate the pick guard style. I’m looking forward to this series
Finally a Tele Build!
