    Greetings from Ireland

    Hi All, Rob here.

    A long time admirer of the talent on this forum and very inspired by the builds here, my friend and I have kits winging their way to us so thought I'd say hello!

    I've got an ESB-4 on the way (only got a new guitar last year so why not try a bass?) and a JM-1 for my friend. So expect questions I guess... although I think that the answer will already be here somewhere if I look hard enough!

    Anyway, looking forward to this project, have a feeling it may turn out to just be the first of many!

    Cheers,
    Rob.

    Hi Rob and welcome. A build diary with photos is definitely the way to go, so much easier for people to provide help if they can see what you're doing. Enjoy your kits and hope both builds go well.
