Yo from Florida

Man, am I glad I found this forum, which I found on accident by googling 335 guitar kit. This really is too cool. I hope to build a 335 and will start with a kit that already has the neck set and holes drilled. [Building from scratch is probably a pipe dream, especially since a lot of my power tools were stolen!] Finishing seems to be a big enough project to tackle at first!

There are a lot of junk kits out there that will never sound good - poor workmanship, poor wood, etc. I am familiar with RM Olson and Rikenstein (reverb.com), which offer great kits and I think get them from the same source. Any other good kits out there?

I'm looking for great build quality and want to have a magnificent instrument when done -- assuming of course I do my part...

Glad to be here!

Howdy from PA. And yes finishing in itself can be very challenging.

Welcome brashboy (do you have a name that we can address you as?) Where abouts in Florida do you reside? I was born in West Palm Beach and spent a few of my teenage years in Titusville/Cocoa.

P.S. I'll be sure to return your tools

Yo Bo..........oy.
Welcome, and you are wise to do your first one from a serviced kit.
