    Greetings from The Netherlands

    Hi y'all,

    My name is Ton, an abbreveation for Anthony. I am from a small city in The Netherlands, Europe. I am 55 years young and play guitar and bass guitar for more than 40 years now. One of the expressions I frequently use is "love one woman and several guitars". The price of new guitars nowadays makes it hard to realize this on the other hand. So I took an interest in building them for myself (and some friends lately). My search for kits lead me all over the world and finally Pitbull Guitars. I built 2 Teles, a Les Paul, a strat, a Precision bass and a Firebird so far. Next in line is an Explorer. More are sure to follow.

    I hope to have a good and learnful experience with this community.
