Electric Guitar Kit Single Cut : Great kit and price, good fun to make too

I have enjoyed making this kit.

The instructions are pretty clear and precise.

Like all DIY kits, it requires a bit of thought before you steam in though, and I would personally recommend that you wire up the pick-ups, switch and jack to test it all works before you put it in the guitar, then dismantle it and fit accordingly.

May sound stupid, but I had a problem with the wiring (my mistake, not the kit) and had to adjust it with the wires in the body, it was a pain!!!

But then as it was my first DIY kit this may be my inexperience showing.

The neck is screw on, but I glued it as well for extra rigidity.

Some of the pre-drilled screw holes were slightly off (wiring and switch cover on the rear of the guitar, nothing that shows) but as the body is not rock hard, these were easily corrected.

The body and neck are great the sound is very good for a £70 guitar, I've played much worse that cost a lot more!!!!

It only really took about 30 mins to set up the action, and intonation and a small tweak on the neck (that's me being pedantic rather than a comment on the guitar quality) and then I was off playing.

It's quite light and has a real good feel.

I beeswaxed the body and neck rather than any other type of finish and it really has brought the grain of the wood out and it looks superb.

If you want to dabble in making a guitar, then this kit is real good value for money.

Do yourself a favour and just buy one of these kits, it's good fun and you get a nice guitar at the end of it too.....
