Hi Everyone.
I'm from the outskirts of Sydney and have finally decided to take the plunge.
I've decided to completely rebuild my old guitar. It had been sitting unused since I upgraded 10 years ago and the headstock had cracked since it had been fully strung the whole time.
I ordered my neck earlier this week and it arrived today, it is practically a perfect fit which is fantastic. Thanks Adam for the advice.
Time to start sanding back the body :)

Welcome Lee, good luck with the rebuild.

Hey Lee, welcome aboard. That was lucky with the neck fit, I think I warned you it might be a bit of a lottery. Good news!
Keep us posted with a My Build Diary thread if you like. I know it's not a Pit Bull Guitars kit, but it is one of our necks. We're keen to see all builds on this Forum.

Hi Lee,
We have a section titled "non-Pit Bull gear" where we forum members showcase our builds where it is not a PBG kit, so feel free to post there. We will all pitch in with advice and ideas if you ask.
Welcome on board.

Hi and welcome, Lee. I'm definitely keen to see how your neck rebuild develops. Looking forward to watching your thread.
Cheers.

Welcome along Lee. With Gav - keen to see what you've got and where it's going!
-
Thanks Everyone.
I'll start a thread in there in a day or two,
It wasn't a very fancy guitar, it is a Cimar ( Ibanez off brand) guitar with a superstrat type plywood body. However it was my first electric so had to resurrect it :)
After the new neck, bridge, tuners, pickups and finish, there wont be much left of the original.
I expect I'll need some advice on setting up the neck, but I will check the forums before I start asking
-
Welcome Lee. Looking forward to reading about your experiences.
Where abouts are you from? Not many from Sydney area here so far. I'm from the Central Coast.
cheers,
Gav.

Thanks Gav.
I'm from the South West of Sydney near Camden, I lived in the Central Coast for a year in year 8 ( mid-late 80s) and my Mum is living back up that way now too.
I do have a stupid question though. How do you set your profile pic here ?
