Thread: Gday from the Goldy

  1. #1
    Gday

    Thought i would drop in and say a hello.I am from goldcoast

    I have never built a kit before.I play guitar and dabble with bass and drums.Recently ordered a PRS-1S and a IB-5 kit and absolutely cant wait to build the kits 8-)

    I might have to pick your brains from time to time so this is a sorry in advance

    cheers brett

    Welcome Brett.
    No need to be sorry about any questions you have, only be sorry for the questions that you don't ask.

    Welcome Brett,

    Don't be embarrassed to ask questions, we were all beginners once, and some of us still have to ask dumb questions. But that's how we learn.

    cheers

    Welcome Brett, PRS-1S and IB5 sound like 2 good kits to get started on, don't be shy asking any questions, the idea is the forum helps everyone get the best results from their builds.
    Enjoy the build and please start a build diary with some photos.
    You will find out once you have built your first kit or 2 it is very addictive !
    Current Builds and status
    scratch end grain pine tele - first clear coat on !
    JBA-4 - assembled - final tweaks
    Telemonster double scale tele - finish tobacco burst on body and sand neck

    Completed builds
    scratch oak.rose gum Jazzmaster - assembled needs setup
    MK-2 Mosrite - assembled - play in
    Ash tele with Baritone neck - neck pup wiring tweaks and play in

    Welcome Brett!
    Keep us posted on your builds and let the questions fly! We're all trying new things with each build so we're all in the same boat.

    Cheers,
    Gavin.
