I'll PAY somebody with a track record with lacquer to finish it so I can bolt the stuff on. Got some Lawrence pups and a bunch of righteous mechanicals to put on it too. No filling required with Spruce.

Made a great tele out of red spruce cutoffs years ago. Massive open sound with a thinish wider maple neck that was stiffer that steel. That stuff makes a great top for that fake ash that weighs a pound per yard too. Thumpa..
Signatures have a 255 character limit that I could abuse, but I am not Cecil B. DeMille.

I like eastern cedar(juniper) for tele bodies.Termite resistant too.
Its a Fairly tough softwood Definately harder than spruce or white pine.
The couple I built were very loud acoustically.
