Telecaster Thinline Partscaster as a Christmas Present!
Merry Christmas everyone.
This year I decided to throw together a beautiful Squier neck Telecaster Thinline parts guitar for my 5 year old daughter! I also gave my son a duo sonic parts build that I've had for a few years and never really used.
I have no affiliation to any brands or products that I use in my videos.
If Seymour Duncan want to sponsor me that would be lovely though...
Parts list:
Neck: Squier Telecaster Thinline maple neck (used).
Body: from Ebay seller - HZ Guitars.
Pickup: Seymour Duncan STK-T3B (used).
Tuners: Guyker locking tuners.
Generic gold hardware: Ebay seller - Guitar Anatomy.
Enjoy the video, please like and subscribe if you did!
Merry Christmas, happy holidays. I hope you and your family are well.

Building a Meteora style guitar body for my LTD neck
มุมมอง 10Kหลายเดือนก่อน
Well this was a bit of a mad one, I just wanted to modify and make my LTD Tele a bit better looking and I went off on a journey instead. Let me know what you think I should do next: 1. Use the LTD neck on this Meteora body. 2. Build my own neck for the Meteora and finish the LTD another time. Thanks for watching!!

Merry christmas!
@@EYCualquiera you too mate 🙏
Acoustic guitars are made from more than two or three pieces of wood and they sound fine wood is millions of grains of wood stuck to gether with natural glue so sticking pieces of wood together does not make any difference and also keep the price of manufacturing down unless you have money to burn of course.
Yeah true but acoustics are also hollow with sounds holes and bracing etc so completely different to be fair
absolutely lovely, happy holidays mate hope you had an amazing christmas
@@mud_slushie thank you, and you too mate 🙏
Happy Christmas! I'm sure the kids loved them. Proved how much you care by putting in a neck pickup too! 😉
@SonicChronicle haha 😂 and yes they did bud, Merry Christmas to you too!
Dope. Can u mod one of those lyxpro "white" tele's with a humbucker? ❤
I'm sure I could bud yeah I'll add it to my list
Awesome. One humbucker With an all white pickguard and black hardware 😊 lol @@Giant_Guitars
That's the most beautiful Christmas I've ever seen... Your children are blessed to have you as their father...
Thank you mate, I'm definitely the blessed one though!
That’s so real
Those kids gon have a gores childhood
Anyone looking for a good mod platform, check out jet guitars they’re sick
I've heard this quite a few times actually! Cheers
I appreciate the way these mount compared to the Gretsch version, beautiful! Only surpassed by the very very spendy Seymour Duncan Custom Shop with adjustable staple poles. Happy Xmas!
Very true! Merry Christmas to you too bud
Beautiful guitar; though wondering why a 500k pot for a single coil
It's a four conductor single coil so I was treating it more like a humbucker, I should try out a smaller pot actually to see too
"Yer makin a telly"
Lol
Brilliant!
Thanks bud
yeah man, built aka assembled one with a blue paisley body from the same manufacturer. very decent quality, i was pleased… was your daughter pleased, as well? i bet she was… 🙂🎄
Amazing I've seen their Paisleys and they look great too. She was bud thank you very much. Merry Christmas.
merry christmas!
It looks even better with a Telecaster body!
Haha brilliant
Cool will do thanks and Merry Christmas🎄 to you & family!
@@hwallen48 thank you mate
🇮🇪
@@videomove welcome
I did the same, changed the pots too 500ks put in a single bridge SD pup and locking tuners and it’s a monster.
Oosssh sounds like my type of guitar, nice one!!
The guitars look great. I hope the kids loved them. Merry Christmas.
Thank you 🙏 they did and Merry Christmas to you too bud.
Great Job👍 where did you get the body?🎄✌️❤️
Thank you bud! Check out HZ Guitars on eBay, Henry there always has a great collection of these.
HZ Guitars isn't coming up?
Looks Great! Merry Christmas!
Thanks and you too!!
"Deck The Halls" by way of "War Pigs!" Gotta love it!
@@edwinstovall3334 me too, whoever originally did that was a genius
Dying the color darker, does nothing for the sound

the 2nd pickup
2nd pickup??? 😅😏😏
@Giant_Guitars yep, every explorer you will see has 2 pickups. I have the exact same kit as well
@@hoscalemadness I'm just joking around because I did this one with only one pickup 👌 and nice good luck with your kit bud
@@Giant_Guitars ah, thanks
🎄Merry Christmas to you and yours! 😎
Likewise bud and thank you
Check the full video on my channel 🎉 Merry Christmas everyone 🎄🎅
Is it still a squier? You have now stumbled onto the Theseus’ ship question.
Haha yes we need to know. Guitar philosophy 101
Thats possibly the brightest guitar ever heard. It looks absolutely incredible
Super bright! I might trying to add some tone too it to be honest!
Industrial Grey
I love the older Squier logo. What a killer looking guitar!
Thank you mate 🙏
🤚🏾⚖️
Nice build. Merry Christmas
Thanks and Merry Christmas to you too mate!
I've been subbed for a while and i still haven't seen you build a giant guitar, only normal sized guitars. I'm starting to think we're being lied to. 😡 Cool video as always!
Haha you didn't read my bio before subscribing did you?? And thanks bud 😁
great build - tele's are my favourite guitar - and really thoughtful gifts for your kids i have thrown together a few partscasters and my boys have nicked 2 of them a blue 60's strat that i "relic'd" - older one took that once he moved to sheffield and "discovered" arctic monkeys and a foam green Blink 182 alike the younger one decided was his - single bridge JB, you'd be proud buddy ;) needles to say, neither gets played much - but they are happy, so i am happy looking forward to more content in '25 - happy christmas to you and yours!
That's the main bit, as long as they're happy. I don't expect these to be played that often especially given their ages but I'm happy if they're happy. And that 182 inspired guitar sounds awesome mate 👌🤤
What a great project! And your son's, what's that, a Duo-Sonic style guitar?
Thank you mate and yes that's a little duo sonic, it's actually a great guitar too. I think I'll do another one soon!
If it’s only got a single pickup, isn’t it not a partscaster, but a Partsquier ;) Looks awesome!
Haha good point and thank you mate 🙏
That’s really cool! If your little girl isn’t inspired to play that thing, I sure will! 😉🤣 It turned out really great, and I’m sure her reaction will be priceless. If I was five an asked for an electronic guitar with flowers, this one would totally have blown my mind for the rest of my life!!
Thanks 😊 yeah she loved it when she saw it this morning, her jaw dropped!
I wish I had done that instead of buying a Loog.
Next time dude
@@Giant_Guitars Sure! Had to spend nearly three hours to get that thing playable including fret leveling, eliminating sharp fret edges, nut filing. Really "great" for kids hands. 🙄
@riggoe oh no what a nightmare, I think you're right, time better spent in a custom project
Another gorgeous build! Love the finish with the gold hardware im sure your daughter will love it too.
Thank you mate 🙏
Great guitar! I also have my personal answer to the naming debate. I think you call the guitar whatever it started its life with you as. Using this build as an example, if you had bought the whole guitar and changed out the body and electronics I would still call it a Squire Thinline. Since you bought a spare neck and put together the guitar with a different body and electronics I would call it a Partscaster. I think it all depends on what you started with, it's the ship of Theseus vs building a new boat using an old mast.
Thank you mate and very interesting perspective on the question, I actually agree with this, it makes total sense! Very logical.
That looks great. I am a big fan of the telecaster thinline. The gold really goes well with that paint job too. I hope your daughter loves it! As for your question, I usually go with what's on the headstock. By that logic, however, that would make a Chibson a Gibson. I think it's best to just be honest if you ever decide to sell one of these guitars. If you keep it though, who cares what it is. All you need to know is that it's yours, and you can remember the work you put into it every time you look at it.
Thanks mate I appreciate it 😊 And yeah I agree for the sake of selling it sure, if I was selling this I'd advertise it as a "Squier neck partscaster or parts guitar". I just like the debate, I've had people commenting on the Squier modification video I did saying it's no longer a Squier because I swapped out all the hardware and pickup, so it interests me.
There easier to play, the neck is. I’ll bet it’s buttered feels like silly strings slinky’s using 11 gauge. I don’t know a squire is probably better with 10s
Got a similar body from Guitar Fetish, solid, no burst, Paulonia wood for added lightness years ago & this is exactly what I've been planning for it....
Amazing mate, will you go single pickup too?
Beauty color
Thank you, I'm not sure about the pickguard colour but it'll do for now
I know I’d be happy to get that for Christmas lol. It’s a great looking guitar!
Thanks bud, appreciate it! Merry Christmas 🎄
Looks great man , she'll be over the moon...Merry Christmas 🎄
She is, thank you mate. And Merry Christmas to you too!
Merry Christmas! Playing Day Old Hate too, what a throwback
Merry Christmas mate 🎄🎅 I know haha, I should have looked up the tab too I've been playing it like this for years now and I'm certain it's wrong but at least it sounds close enough that it's familiar 😜
