Hello from Taiwan
Hey everyone, I have just purchased my first kit guitar and so far I'm very impressed with Pit Bull Guitars and the service received. They were very responsive and went above and beyond for my first order. I ordered the guitar on a weekend, it was shipped on Monday and I received it in Taiwan on Friday.
I am starting with the STA-1M kit. The ash body is well figured and the weight is quite nice. Not overly heavy but not super light either. I haven't done much with the kit yet as I have just rented a studio to do the work. Space is a premium here and I'm just getting things moved in and set up. I plan on taking plenty of photos and maybe some videos for a YouTube channel if things go well.
A little bit about me, I'm an American who has lived in Asia now off and on for the past 16 years. I've been playing guitar the past 30 years or so and have always wanted to build my own. My background is in paint chemistry and I've worked for some of the largest paint companies as a formulator. I'm now teaching English to help support my hobbies.
Best regards,
Bill

Hi Bill and welcome. I'm a newbie here myself but everyone is very helpful and supportive. Really hope your kit build goes well.

Welcome Bill! With your professional background im guessing you might have some cool tips when it comes to painting!! Looking forward to following your build.

Great to have you on board Bill - hope the build goes well! Looks like you've got the pedigree with the background in paints!

welcome to the forum Bill you have an interesting background. Being an ash body kit are you planning to solid paint it or stain and show off the grain ?
start a build diary and we are all keen to see the kit you scored and your plans for the build

Welcome Bill, enjoy the build.

Welcome Bill. I'm also a newbie and building an ES G1. It's a good place to be!

Welcome Bill. As others have already pointed out with a background in paints the anticipation to see what you end up doing will be high.

Welcome Bill! Which part of Taiwan are you based in?
