  3. i have taken an interest for guitars recently, never played anything before except piano i had plans to buy a gibson les paul as a starter guitar, that seemed a bit to exessive so i built a guitar for myself using mostly handtools, it turned out better than i expected im not here to brag though, i want to share some problems that came up during the build and also be informed by you of potential details i've overlooked in the build!

Scale lenght 650mm, 21 frets, heavy! above 4.5kg The nut is made from elk horn, not really finished yet, need some filing If you have any suggestions for me id be glad to hear it, even if you think i have no idea what im doing, because i dont
