I got the Guitar

I got the Douglas WF-165 TA for fathers day. Looks pretty good. The neck feels really great. Bending seems significantly easier than on my Fender Nashville Tele (I’ve been lazy and really need to spend some loving time with that one). I wasn’t expecting the pitched back headstock (must not have look close enough to the webpage). The setup was a little out of whack, but thats fixed now. Just switched out the strap buttons with Dunlop strap locks. Here it is on my workbench:Douglas WF-165 TA On Workbench

The pickups are Ok. I’ll hold off on changing them out until after the the rest of the work is done. I’ll see if I will ever use them, or just play exclusively through the VG-99.
