G'day, as requested here's a bit of info about me. I am a year away from retirement and was looking for something to occupy myself (the wife's got her garden). Previously in a covers band which was great fun but it eventually died. I have an American strat and a Epi les paul as well as an old Fender C65 acoustic which I bought over 40 years ago. Found this site and decided that I will get me a kit and have a crack at putting it together. Also, I like pina coladas, walking in the rain and sharing my feelings.

hey Wokka, yeah the C65 is older than my kids and was my first real six string but I didn't byit at the 5 and dime. got from a music store in Footscray in melbourne and my guitar teacher took it a bloke in Seaford by the name of Merv Cargil who set it up for me (he is a legendary luthier in Victoria) The old girl has survived 3 kids, serveral accidental drops and general abuse but she sings as sweet now as she did then. Love the old girl.

Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.
