Building my guitar:)


Hey

OK, I've decided to build a guitar. The body should not be a problem, but the neck.. Any one with some routine, please tell me, how the h*ll am I suppose to do this?

I can't think of anything more difficult than setting up to build the neck as far as making a guitar goes.If you do make it yourself,try to make the length of the neck out of the same piece of wood and avoid a scarf joint if at all possible.Let us know how you make out.

Yeah! I'll do that. Might take some time get started up on the project, with all this mess around X-mas and stuff coming up soon... But, I'll keep you posted!

Hmm, it's indeed the most difficult part of the guitar to make, but to me it was the most fun and challenging part !!

Try projectguitar.com for some tutorials, or go here:

Good luck with your upcoming project !

Cheers,
