Hi there all, I figured that i should actually introduce myself to the people who have been a help to me through reading posts onthis forum.
My Name is Nick and i live in Echuca onthe Vic /Nsw border. Im a Chef and a Father of 2 young boys (5 and 3) who has decided that my guitar playing is not that good, so ill try to make them. Everyone needs options of what guitar they want to play.
The LP-1 that i have recently completed is what i hope the first of many styles and models that i would like to make.
I look forward to getting to know Everyone on The Pitbull Guitars Forum and the help I know I am going to need for my new found hobby.

Nick Cass :D

Hey Nick,
There is no greater joy as a player that maybe is not so good ( I am including myself in this catagory) than to build beautiful instruments for other people!

I had my start in the world of lutherie from a kit build, and now I am building Basses and Guitars for folk who really appreciate them!

I wish you all the best in your hobby and who knows, one day you may be able to pursue lutherie as a profession.

Welcome aboard, looking forward to your contribution to this growing community. If you're rewinding pick ups then I have a feeling you're going to fit right in ;)

Hi, my name is Mike, I'm 46 and live in Brisbane. I've been playing keyboard, by ear, since I was 4. My brother took to guitars when he was a kid but when I tried, they forced me to play right handed, so I gave up in disgust (I'm a lefty). It's now time for me to play catch up on the 35 years I've missed and since I'm a tinkerer, a Pitbull Guitar kit seems like the ultimate option...... So I'm currently awaiting the delivery of an SV-1 left handed.

It strikes me that there may be a lot of people that are either complete novices or entry level.. I've been doing a lot of research but an area with little info is what to plug the completed Pitbull Guitar into, so I'm going to put a post up asking for peoples input :)

Hey Mike, Welcome aboard!
You will find a very helpful community here on the Pit Bull forum so if you have any build questions please ask!

As for what amp to plug into, I am sure that dMac is your man :)

Have fun with your build and remember the golden rule, take it slow, enjoy the experience and you will end up with a killer Axe.

You're no longer unique Pablopepper...
Welcome Mike!

I noticed I haven't introduced myself on the forum as yet. Some things slip by...
I am Gavin, I live in Perth. Played soccer and kept breaking my fingers (i was a goalkeeper before any asks how I managed to do this!). Played in a rock band in the early 90's producing two Cd's and two movie soundtracks then gave up and took up an office job where the pay was better! Hung onto an acoustic as well as my electric guitar throughout this time. After one too many operations to fix broken fingers I felt a new hobby was in order. In June 2011 I attended an acoustic guitar building course in QLD and I was hooked! Have subsequently moved workshop (wife thinks we moved house) from a 9 square meter shed to a 55 square meter workshop. I finally have the space to finish the stockpile of almost complete guitars. Was looking to get into electrics due to a few requests from friends to build them an electric after trying out one of my (not quite finished) acoustics. Have already met some great folk on this forum and been introduced to some excellent finishing product-goodness knows I needed to find something as the wife was getting threatening about all these guitars in the main bedroom....must have been why she agreed to move house provided the guitars stayed in the workshop! Win-Win situation!!

Hi all, I'm Glenn from Bendigo, Central Victoria. I got into electric guitars in about 1993, having previously played brass instruments and teaching myself piano. I had to sell my guitar (a cheap Ibanez with three single pick-ups) to afford an overseas holiday ... but kept my acoustic, and mucked about with it while concentrating on piano. In about 2005 I started using the acoustic professionally, in seasonal dinner theatre work, and in 2008 my KRudd bonus bought a very nice semi-acoustic for that work, which I still play and love. I'm a big Queen fan and my ambition is to build a Red Special copy (Adam, are you listening?!)

I'm starting with a Tele, which I think should be pretty straightforward and give a lot of bang for buck. I have some gold spray paint left over from painting a gun for a fancy-dress party, so it'll be gold with the standard chrome fittings. I'll try to make it look pretty swish. I'm following up with two more Teles, just for experience - one for a gigging friend in Canberra, so I'm going to fit a few extras to that one, and it'll be themed to match her red Mini Cooper S, right down to shaping the head stock as a Mini silhouette (albeit upside down for the punters); and another for my brother, a sound engineer who works around Albury-Wodonga - we haven't worked out the details of that one yet, but he's a stickler for quality, so we'll probably end up tricking that one out a bit too. Once I have those under my belt I reckon I should be ready for something more complicated.

I'd really also love to add a bass to my instrument collection. Adam, any chance a P-bass kit is coming up?

I've never built a guitar before, but I've done a load of DIY, and the only skill required that I haven't used before appears to be soldering. I'm very much looking forward to the adventure.

Hey welcome aboard Glenn, sounds like you've got some grand plans. Looking forward to seeing your creations.

We have basses on order; including Jazz and PB styles, they're due mid February.

You're actually the second person to ask for a "Red Special" type kit. It can be specially ordered, with a wait time (production and shipping) of 8 - 12 weeks. Price would be around $200.

Great to have you on board, I'm sure you'll find the regulars a very helpful and friendly bunch.

Awesome-sauce! Thrilled to hear a Red Special can be done! Also, finding the instructional videos very helpful - I'm someone who learns visually, so I'm very happy with the service so far! And I'm also not impatient and not afraid to ask for help so, if I get stuck, I'll be putting up my hand!

Cheers all!

The video bank is a great place to start. There are some good tips on soldering in the video's as well. Looking forward to seeing your creations as well.

Hey Glenn, welcome to the family!
You will find your Pit Bull experience rewarding and you will learn heaps about how Guitars go together through the process.

I know that others on this forum will be getting tiered of hearing me say this but, take the build slow, the more time you put into the prep stage before painting, the better the result.

I recently moved to Perth from Canberra, my suggestion is add some anti freeze to the build for your friend! :P

Good luck with the build and don't hesitate to ask for help if you get stuck.

Also, kit just arrived (and I mean it literally was just delivered) - that's three business days tops, from order to delivery, across the continent. Well done, Adam!

That's great Glenn, thanks for the feedback. I have to say, I'm constantly impressed with the performance of Australia Post. Also, a big shout out to my business partner Phil Watson, who handles distribution. He gets most orders out the same day, or next day if the order comes in after midday.

Hi everyone, and thanks to Adam.
My name is John and I live in Newcastle, NSW. Been playing guitar since 1981. I've had quite a few guitars since I started but now I think I've only got 8 or 9 now. I suffer from Guitar Acquisition Syndrome.

This time I thought I would give a kit build a go. Not much of a woodworker, but I am fairly careful etc. :?

Anyway, hope to swap stories and experiences.

Hey John, welcome to our forums! The kits are of high quality (I'm getting one tomorrow!), and will look great if you choose to finish it on Wudtone (available Feb)! If you have ANY concerns/ questions, feel free to ask any of us, and we will all help.
One more thing... Take the build slow, and it will be a guitar that will last for a long time!!!

Welcome aboard John.

Enjoy the build and please do share pics of progress!

Which kit did you get?

You are going to use Wudtone, aren't you? :D
If you do decide to use Wudtone or would like to know more about it fire off an email to me at dingobass@pitbullguitars.com.

Hard sell over ;)

What ever finish you decide on, there is a wealth of experience here on the forum in all types of finishes and we are eager to give any help and advice you may need. Oh, and don't forget to share any tips or tricks that you may know.

Callum, there won't be much point because after building DB's one I will have achieved a level of perfection not worth repeating...

I don't know if I'll be building another in a hurry! I have guitars to build... I'm building DB's because he is building Adam's guitars and doesn't have time with Wudtone coming on-stream too.

Have a look at my thread below...I show step by step what you need to do as well as all the parts needed.

http://pitbullguitars.com/?page_id=42&mingleforumaction=viewtopic&t=63.0

If you still need one built, maybe I'll chat to Adam and we can put one up on the store? But honestly it is easy to build and would be well worth your while doing rather than paying someone to build one for you, especially since I can help you on the forum if you get stuck with the build!

Hi folks,

This is Eliot here- once gigging and now retired bassist around the Perth traps. VERY excited to see such a high quality kit range available in my own fair metropolis.

Needless to say I'd be very interested in any developments for Bass kits- and in the interim I will be trying to choose which guitar kit to go for first.... You can also register my interest in a Red Special kit as well.... Oh pretty please!!

Be seeing you,

Hi guys, Stu here. I won the last SG1 kit on ebay, and I'm really excited to receive it after reading all the feedback on these forums about the quality of these kits! This one is going to be a gift for my old man (rocker from way back) since the SG has always been his favorite guitar, yet he's never owned one (go figure).
Depending on how well this one turns out, this may well become a permanent hobby, especially if i enjoy the process as much as i think I'm going to!
Most likely you'll see me a fair bit on these forums, as this is my first build so I'm sure I'll have plenty of questions!

Hey Stui,

Welcome and congrats on winning the SG kit.

You will find all the support you could ever need here on the forum.

Take your time with the build and you will have an Axe that your Dad will love.

Check out the Wudtone finishes, there is a great selection of colours and I can also mix up custom colour as well.

Welcome aboard El - nice to see another Red Special officionado here! I reckon I'll be ready to tackle one around October-ish. The electronics seem to be a bit more complex than average, with two switches for each pick-up but only master volume and tone controls.

Maybe you can, but the suspense is killing a few of us already- how will we make it through the three weeks! :)

There's a Jazz Bass, a PB and a PB with Humbucker, a Hofner Bass, a Hofner Bass w/Spalted top, and an Ibanez Style 4 string and 5 string.

....and the rumours start already!

Heard someone has already sent out his suspicious friends from Mali to try and intercept a particular Beatles Bass with a particular Spalted top...i'm saying nothing more than that for fear of incriminating myself and DingoB.....i think I've said too much already!!! :)

That's great news, Adam - project #5 will be a bass, now I just have to decide whether I want to tap my inner McCartney ...
