No worries Joanne....just waiting for you to get a case of GAS now! Ask Andy.
Hi ILR, I am abeginner player and builder! It just feels like the right time. I have been inspired by the builds and promised Andy if he built a guitar for me I would learn to play it. We couldn't agree on the build so I figured I would build my own!
I have chosen a guitar and Andy ordered it this morning and it is already on it's way! I am starting with an ST-1. I think it will take me where I want to go to start with.
Stay tuned for the build diary! and thanks for all your input. I am looking forward to drinking the coolaid :)
Many happy days ahead sanding and measuring the humidity together....
P.S I might try a firebird once I have a bit of skill playing :cool: I do think they look way cool and wold love to be able to make one growl
Hi Joanne welcome to the forum, I missed this thread. Wow your attitude has changed for the better, Andy used to sweat and sweat whether he was allowed to hang a guitar in the house !
ST-1 great kit to start on, think that was Andy's first kit ?
You have a great mentor and coach to guide you to build you a cool axe, best of luck.
You have been warned building guitars/basses is very addictive haha
Welcome Joanne, awesome to have another woman on the forum.
There are lots of great choices here. The tele is an awesome guitar and a perfect first build, i also think it lends itself to some of the more quirkier and rustic finishes, and a silver burst might look better than you think on it.
Either way, enjoy the fun of choosing and the build
Welcome and enjoy :)
From one first timer to another - it is rather addictive...
Hi Joanne, good choice as you can learn and encounter all those beginner oops moments on a kit that is easy to build and maybe then move on to the Firebird for your next one.....as I am sure there will be more than one.....says me who just ordered build # 6 last night
Cheers & good luck, Waz.
