Hi from South Australia

[Micko]

Hey guys.
I have just made my first pitbull purchase and am keen to collect the whole range.
I just bought a DTL-7 7 string telly style guitar. I am pretty keen to start the build. I will start a build thred
With lots of photos and videos as soo. As I get the kit delivered.


I am just getting back in to music after a 15 year break from playing in numerous pub bands at once.
I am now just happy recording my own music on garage band. I have a few guitars already.
.westone 6string
.epiphone les Paul
.ibanez rg series
.maton ms500
And my favourite a maton jb6
which is hard to beat
I have been restoring cars for many years but feel I need a change and am about to learn every thing there
Is to know about building guitars. I can’t think of a better place to start.
I look forward to getting to know you all
Thanx
Mick

Hi Micko! Looks like Micko is presenting with classic GAS symptoms folks.

Welcome Mick.
The car restoration experience may be handy when it comes time to do your finishing is you do a spray finish.

Cheers,
Mick

Certainly will. I came here a couple of years ago in the same boat. It’s a great switch up from cars as lots of skills transfer over. Plus they are a much better size to work on and still offer a lot of the same fun of customisation that cars do.

[Micko]

Yeh a lot of my skills will most definitely carry over from the car restoration.
My ultimate goal is to build a guitar from scratch

[Micko]

Most definitely
