Dave Higham Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 I realise that most of the interest here is in electric instruments but I seem to remember seeing the odd acoustic in the dim and distant past. There's Ash's rabbit hole, but he seems to have disappeared down it The acoustic in question was made for my nephew and finished in 2017, so it's not a new project. It would be quite a long thread with a lot of photos. So what do you think? (I could do an electric afterwards). 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottR Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 As a rule, acoustic builds get quite a bit of interest around here. Maybe because they are different from all the electrics, and probably because many of us electric builders are intimidated by the thought of building an acoustic......but secretly want to. There have been some amazing builds posted in the past. These days @Andyjr1515 and @ADFinlayson are getting most of the work done.. And we love watching them do it.

Bizman62 Posted November 29, 2021 Report Share Posted November 29, 2021 All build threads are important and worthy. I suppose the main reason for this forum being more electric oriented is that a) building them is much easier and b) playing them through various buzzing gimmicks is easier. So please do show us some real guitar building! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ADFinlayson Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 I've been trying to catch up on a couple of electric builds and my day job has been running into nights so I haven't had time to work on my acoustic builds lately. Hopefully back to it over xmas. But I'm very keen to see your acoustic build thread! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mistermikev Posted November 30, 2021 Report Share Posted November 30, 2021 @Dave Higham u seem to have a lot of good tricks up your sleeve... and I'd like to steal more of them, so with that in mind I'd like to see it despite having little to no interest in building an acoustic anytime soon. long story long - i vote yes.
