Between the Homewrecker (the guitar) and the Supro (the amp) I was rockin' in a whole new way. However, there were certain "design flaws" and "production irregularities" that serves as motivation to build a second guitar:

• The body was ash, which was heavy (partly due to its size) and difficult (for me) to apply a finish. I was never happy with the finish, because it looked like thinned Elmer's Glue.
• During manufacture I taught myself, with varying degrees of success, how to use a router and a soldering iron. While fully functional, the aesthetic results were a bit rough.
• I had built the guitar with two humbuckers, and I wanted to have the option of a Telecaster bridge pickup twang.

Overall, I wanted to apply the knowledge from my experience with the first guitar.
