Hello all, I've spent a few months reading posts (most of them very helpful). Finally made an account and thought I'd introduce myself. I'm a college student and am about to embark on my first of hopefully many guitars. I'm starting of with a Martin dreadnought building kit. |

Welcome Will, the Martin kit is a good beginning place as it will give you the confidence to move on to more scratch building and you will get a very good guitar if you build it properly. My 1st build 5 years ago was a OM cutaway kit from Martin that I upgraded to curly maple binding and bone nut and saddle which added only a little to the cost. I still play and enjoy showing off old #1 even though my skills have improved a whole lot, it still gets played almost every day. Take you time, ask lots of questions on the forum and use the search function to mine for great information. Fred |

Hah thanks all, I'll definitely be posting pictures of progress. I really would like to eventually build archtop acoustics, but one step at a time. |
