Was browsing & found this offset Tele kit, looks interesting AFAIK just added to their lineup. No price yet. https://www.pitbullguitars.com/shop/gui ... uitar-kit/

Damn that body shape isn't off by just a little...
Looks like those cheap Asian Jaguar / Jazzmaster copies.

Just browsed through the site- looks like some fun projects, but not really what I'm into.

I’ve really been considering an offset Tele project. Not sure I ever want to finish a guitar but cool to see the option!

For sure, it's goofy in an Aliexpress way, not a cool way.

I recently finished a Pit Bull Jazzmaster. The neck is fine, which I suppose is perhaps the most important aspect- it's a maple neck with a Richlite fingerboard. The body is decent, but they don't license anything, so the shape is off- mine is a 7/8 size, so no other pick guards will fit it, save custom ones that will cost nearly as much as the guitar... also, the components are pure garbage. That said, I'm tempted by this Bass VI kit: https://www.pitbullguitars.com/shop/gui ... oard-copy/
