Members housered Posted July 4, 2007 Members Share Posted July 4, 2007 I like many of you dream of building a guitar. I don't mean assembling a kit or staining a pre-cut body. I mean starting with planks of fine wood and shaping my dream axe. Please list the best threads, books, websites etc. and relay your own personal experiences. And pictures, pictures, pictures! Thanks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members 61gibson335 Posted July 5, 2007 Members Share Posted July 5, 2007 Stewmac.com has a wide variety of building resources. Videos and materials. lmii.com has many good building materials. Rather expensive though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
