Well, no, I am kind of a novice, but I'm probably going to be working with my dad's friend who's a carpenter who has built guitars before, so I'll have help. I'll have to look into the cocobolo though, obviously if I'm allergic I can't use it. I'm planning on making a bolt on neck with a body similar to an Ibanez double cut away artist. Thanks for the advice, I probably will end up going a much simpler route, this is just my ideal set up.
