Hello fron Kentucky

[Henry Meadows]

Hello all,
I love everything about guitars; right now I am most comfortable in no knowing how to play one very well, but i am learning. I love working with wood and am about to begin the challenge of building. I have been reading this forum for a while and finally decided to purchase some beginning items and join the forum. I look forward to conversing with you all and learning a lot, as i have seen others do over the last few months.

Welcome, Henry. Good to have you aboard.

hope you like this forum, it is here for your enjoyment and help.

This place is a great resource. While you'll have frustrations along the way it's great fun. Welcome.

[Henry Meadows]

It is a great forum; I have read many of the topics, and find the degree of assistance provided to new builders the best I have seen anywhere. There is a very diverse collection of personalities here, which I have found only makes for a more relaxing environment. Perhaps I can start building nice guitars, rather than buying them

[tippie53]

It can happen. I only built 152 now

Welcome Henry. Have you decided what you want to build for your first yet?

[Henry Meadows]

Brian,

I have ordered wood for Mohagany Dreadnaughts, so far. I really am interested in a walnut set of back and sides and neck blank; but I guess that will come later. I think, at some point, I want to build a straight-braced Mahogany Dread, to be similiar to the Martin D-18, before the 2012 changes.

John,

I watch your youtube videos frequently and really enjoy the flow of information in them. I actually intended to order one of your videos, but forgot to.

glad you like the you tube vids. You can see I gained some weight from the first one. I think I gained it 12 oz at a time

John,

I have done a few 12 oz curls too. Bud light has 8 oz cans now...I can slam one down now, like the big boys lol.

The items I ordered from Stew-Mac shipped Friday; I cant wait to start looking at them every time I walk past the tools and such ;-). The wood sets should have ample time to climatize as the humidity continues dropping around here. Thankfully I have a nice HD-28 to keep my fingers sore while I wait lol
