I had a great time every step of the way and I want to thank those of you who helped me with my questions along the way. I would also like to thank John Hall as well for all the great videos online and the help you gave me.

I am really thrilled with the result and it sounds amazing! This is a great hobby, I just glued the first run of Kerf lining in on #2 tonight. It's a BCG Kit Spruce Maple.

Cheers,

Really? This was the first guitar you built? It is absolutely gorgeous. That's the kit I am considering (but D28 rosewood). I am so envious, and now a little more comfortable with the idea of doing my first one. Out of curiosity, and not to steal this thread, what tools did you have when you started the kit? What did you get as you progressed building the kit?
