Members DaleH Posted May 5, 2010 Members Share Posted May 5, 2010 Always good to see a neww build. For the ferrule holes couldn't you do the two outside holes then mark and start the other holes from the back. Going about half way ,then finish from the top? I have never done a tele but just an idea? My new strat build is coming along good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
