Hi and welcome to the forum. Probably the easiest way to get started is to build a kit from a reputable supplier like StewMac. Steve |

After you get a book or two, buy a beater and start by re-fretting it, then do a complete set-up. This will give you a soft-start on accumulating/ assessing the needed tools and set-up skills. Most everything else can be done with basic tools, if that is your desire. |

Plenty of books here at this link - including the Hiscock book Jim recommended. Cathy will sell them to you for pennies on the dollar. https://photos.google.com/share/AF1QipM ... NLTEQ2WWJ3 |
