    Hey fellas,
    I just took the plunge and got myself the TL-1A kit.
    Can't have too many projects on the go right? :P
    Anyways I am sure all be hanging around this forum and asking a few questions of the old hands.

    Cheers
    Tony

    Hi Tony, and welcome aboard.

    I am sure you will have heaps of fun and satisfaction building your TL-1A kit. Its a great kit, I recently finished mine and I am really happy with the results.

    Take your time building your guitar, and ask lots of questions if you get stuck, there is always someone here that is only too willing to help.

    Start a build diary and keep us updated.

    cheers
