    Simon Ashford from Melbourne

    Hello from Melbourne. Just ordered my first kit from Pitbull. GR-SF1. On back order for March ish... Have been weighing up building a guitar for a while. Taken the first step and looking forward to the learning journey. So reassured to see the supportive community around Pitbull. The decisive moment was when I realised that Adam at Pitbull is all about quality. Can’t wait to get started.

    Welcome along Simon - as a first - make sure when you get the kit you start a diary - plenty of help if you need it.
