I decided to start building last year in December because I had a product development class, so I decided to try my hand at luthiery. Five months later, after stumbling my way through the build, I eventually ended up with this.
Angle Shot
Side Shot
Mom Holding guitar for back shot
Body: Pine
Neck: Maple
Fretboard: Fretless red Oak
Hardware: Scrapped from some generic asian strat with a curvise "B" as the logo.
Had to paint the Neck and Headstock due to router tear out and putty filling. Twas a shame, as it was really nice looking before that.
Problems include over routing, dings and scratches while still in progress, the strings lean toward the low E, Lack of frets, and overall crappy tone.
But, I am now much more educated in the way that guitars functions and are constructed, and am currently working on much more serious projects, such as a 7 string with Maple body, Mahogony Neck,and Walnut Fretboard, and a PRS with Maple top, Mahogany body and neck, with Walnut fretboard and veneers.
This was a learning build for me, and it helped me immensely. Also, I probably couldn't of done it without help from this site. Thank you Project Guitar!
