For those who are interessted. I was inspired bei a german guy who has build his own offset in a very inexpensive way and without those special luthier tools. So I decided to try it by myself. My first try was the lightblue one with humbuckers.
I took two boards of pine (former shelves) drew the outline and sawed the holes for the PUs and electronics etc. with a jigsaw. Then I sticked the boards and sawed the contour. The next steps were filing, sanding and painting and sanding and painting and ...
Putting all parts together was absolutely no problem with the blue one - it was a lucky strike (I remarked it after assembling the purple beast).
The second try should make every thing better, but things that has worked fine coincidentally now made problems and needed a lot of extra time.
My Conclusion: it is possible to build my own offset, but I am far away from reproducing a good result.
For the first I am satisfied (my wife asked me where all those guitars should stay
)
Maybe when I am retired I will build the ultimate offset.
... to be continued in a few years
I usually prefer the JM headstock shape on JM shaped bodies, but with no pickguard I think the Tele neck is PERFECT on them. Nice job!!
