The last dozen years that I played Tele I used standard necks and custom thinline bodies to drop some of the weight. I gave away my last one a couple years ago and recently was gifted an unused Seymour Duncan 59 and a few other items.
I used the stuff to put together a 1-3/4" nut width 12" radius 24-3/4" scale length semi-acoustic that I'm very happy with. I'm used to 1-3/4" acoustics so this one feels very similar, but even easier to play.
I'm having so much fun with it I haven't taken the time to break it down for final finish application for the body.
