Ok, the kit is available finally. I've tried to make a lot of things optional to keep the price down for those who want to tackle more of it themselves. The base price is $390.

IMPORTANT: When ordering, all of the options default to YES. You have to change each one to whatever you want.

Here's a link to the product page on my web site; http://www.cncguitarparts.com/product_info.php?cPath=77&products_id=337

I'll have more pics of the kit parts soon along with pictures and sound samples of completed instruments, but I wanted to get this going because I know a lot of people are chomping at the bit.

I'll take orders for a week or so and then it'll take a couple of weeks to get them all done. Anyone attending the Chicago Luthiers gathering at my place can pick their's up then if they want. I'll refund shipping for anyone that elects to do that.

Thanks!

Hi John,

Is this the chambered hollowbody where the prototype had the box-joint faux rope binding? If so, may I recommend that you show some additional view on your website, and add the sound clips. You also mention a thread on the OLF, and you may want to make that a link to the specific thread on your site.

Good luck! These should sell well!

Dennis

Thanks, Dennis. Yes, it's the same one. I thought about linking to that thread, but I didn't want to create confusion. The box-joint top isn't being offered in the kit and the design has been changed in a number of ways. In a few days I'll have a lot more pics and sound clips.
