I started building and creating from scratch custom Fender Telecasters in the Summer of 2014. I have built ten custom electric guitars to date, including a completely original prototype guitar (0005) that borrowed from a variety of different previously existing designs. I have recently finished my first acoustic guitar with plans to start another project in the near future.
My first acoustic guitar build, Randles Custom Shop #12, a Madagascar rosewood body with spruce top, mahogany neck, and ebony fretboard. I put my name in the fretboard with a CAD machine and filled it with epoxy resin.
My first electric guitar build, a Telecaster with a body made from Central Illinois walnut trees.
My first Stratocaster build with artwork by my son, Henry.
