I just did the same to an eastmann hollowbody Saturday... it had a fret level 2 years ago but all the frets lifted up... maybe not radius enough in the making... after gluing and clamping (I copied all your tools) some where still popping... so with some delicacy I finish them the fret kisser... so you made me 90 bucks with your knowledge for the first time. You're an angel Vic!
I know that we are watching these much later than real time. But I do appreciate you sharing them. I pray that you are feeling better these days. Rest well, in the Lord.
I got a squier neck off reverb for a thinline tele build and to be fair the frets were all level to begin with and not too tall for "tall vintage" the tuners are a bit cheap feeling but tune up fine when you down tune you can feel play in the tuners but they work fine and hold tune fine. The bone nut needed rounding on the edges front sides and back and needed cutting down a bit. The finish on the neck will chip easy at the edges if not careful. I would not buy a whole guitar not a tele anyway as I saw a few of them and the ferrules on the back of the bodies are wonky God knows why they dont have the abilty to drill them straight its like they are done by hand, older VM Squier teles were the same from Indonesia but the China ones were done perfect.

That looks like it's modeled after Dave Gilmour's famous #0001 Strat.

hey man it’d be pretty cool if you posted some sox riffs
I might get round to it some day: you are not the first person to ask. Victor...
Nice job! I wonder if it is worth it to get a cheaper guitar but then having to pay for all this work?
That is up to the individual to decide...
