Electric Guitar Kit Single Cut : Great playing easy-to-build kit

7 years ago

This was my first experience in assembling a guitar, having previously only done basic maintenance and setup. Everything fit together well, and seemed of good quality. The end result was a good looking well playing guitar. The finish of the wood is pretty good, but it's not a very pretty grain and does probably not lend itself to staining. With solid paint though, it is all good.

The one big problem with this kit is the tuning machines. They have a lot of backlash in the gears and are mechanically rather sloppy, so they are both difficult to tune and do not stay in tune very well. Replaced them with a set of Kluson tuners, which made all the difference.
