Been playing guitars since Hector was a pup and decided it's time to become more intimate with them. I have numerous guitars. Guild's, Rickenbacker's and various other guitars, banjos, dulcimers and mandolins. Including a hammered dulcimer I built decades ago.
I have done very minor guitar service to my own gear. Mostly I've farmed out work to local luthiers. However, in my neck of the woods, luthiers seem to be in fairly short supply these days. So, I'm attempting to my spread wings.
First up, a violin style electric bass guitar kit.

Re: Howdy From Kentucky
Thank you folks,
B.Howard, indeed, I will do a "blog your project" on the bass. Thanks!
Diane, thank you. Yep. Southern KY and loving it. We have a small spread of about 30 acres. A handful to be sure.
