i like it apart from the anemic neck and terrible decal, although an ash body at that price is good.

bridge looks like a gotoh, clone or otherwise: 6 string-through, 6 top loaded, and individual saddle intonation.

for £100 that could be a real bargain

Looks like they do a Strat too for the same price:

Prefer the Tele though.

Great value (assuming they're not terrible). George is right about the decal though....

Fuck, this just reminded me I have a 12 string Tele kit still boxed in my garage... Bought it the year before last but learning how to deal with a new baby superseded building it.

Not necessarily, I've had a couple with decent necks. Inconsistant quality though.
