So, I have been working on and modifying guitars for years. I have done lots of repairs, rebuilds, and customizing. Both in the acoustic and electric form. I have always wanted a Les Paul single cut arch top. But affordability has been out of reach, and I didn't want something so cheap that i would hate it. I found this and was amazed its everything I want, set neck, single cut, arch top, and i get to make it exactly what I want!! So in a few days my build will begin, my kit is set to arrive on Wednesday, And I will be on here reading these pages and asking for advice. I am very excited to be doing this, and with a forum to support my project. And I hope I bring my share to the table.
My idea for this builds main highlights are:
1 I would like to get a pretty low action, with little loss in playability.
2 Cleanly set up my EMG 81 - 85 pickups.
3 Successfully get an "iced" blue finish, with a deep blue burst.
4 Just complete this build with an all around awesome guitar.
