I don't mind grungy lookin ones but once they have jewelled eyes and chrome plate I start to back away :P

Someone asked me why I needed so many, especially considering my playing level. Answer is simple, I really enjoy building them. Bonus is they don't require fuel, registration, insurance, ammo or a licence!

I really like that comment....Very astute....Theres alot of peps with bucket loads of money buying them who cant play....

[Dedman]

I sure as hell don't have buckets of money, if I did there would be a pile of kits in the corner waiting to built

I agree Deddy. Especially with my playing ability.

Building guitars is its own kind of art-form, to me it's a 4 dimensional sculpture, the 4th dimension is creating it's voice.

[Dedman]

exactly, another form of canvas.

For me, building something, anything, is a cathartic experience, it keeps me sane.

Pretty much the same, i think by building it makes up for it... Kinda like if I cant be really good at playing at least I can be really good at building.. For me its research on guitars...I am a great researcher , not that you guys would know but I pretty much will research the guts out if anything.

I have found the same, particularly since hanging up the rugby boots (The full contact effort, I still play touch rugby else i will require GREATLY expanded belly cuts). I also have enjoyed the revising of skills taught me by my grandfather and others as a young bloke that I just don't get to use in my professional life.
