Well it's not mine... It's for my buddy and fellow forumite grooveHT who's currently deployed to the nether-regions of this planet... LOL! :D

Anyway, he's on a big USACG kick lately (who could blame him, so far I'm REALLY impressed with what I've seen). This is the third USACG that I've had in my position for him while he's deployed overseas.

Jeff found the neck and body on TGP, bought them and had them shipped to me. I put them together and set them up for him. So when he comes home, he'll have new toys to play with... :D

So far as I can tell, the body is honduras mahogany. Neck looks to be maple and ebony fingerboard (could be dyed rosewood).
The pickups are Dimarzio Bluesbuckers. Bridge is a hipshot. Schaller locking tuners. Graphite nut. Not sure about the electonics it was already pre-soldered... :)

So basically, I slapped the neck on. Put on the strings and set her up. Took me about 45 minutes or so.
 
Can't tell by a picture, but the body looks comfy from here. I'd sling that badboy. :thumbsup:
 
Cool axe! Yeah the H/H pickup is a must have for me if I had a tele.... :D

Good stuff. I really like the body, looks comfortable :D
Yeah me too...
Still undecided on the neck and the pickups, but the body is a keeper... At the end of the day, it's Jeff's call.
