Electric Guitar Kit DC Style : Great Value Kit - A road-worn builders dream

4 years ago

I was shocked at how good the kit was. The filler/ varnish on the body took some sanding to remove but it was ok as I was staining for a road-worn look and it wasn't too much of an issue.

The neck was spot-on and with some 800 wet & dry (used dry) I managed to get a lovely finish on the neck which I completed with 100% bees wax.

The pickups were nice, the frets needed levelling but I've yet to find a PRS or Fender that didn't need this either and it went together well.

I changed the bridge to a roller bridge the nut to a Graph Tec, added HB locking tuners, new D'Addario strings, and oiled the fretboard as well.

I'm currently building one of each model and this one was a particular keeper.
