Cheers,
Scott
Hi Scott, welcome aboard.
Look forward to seeing your projects come to life, and if you have any questions- no matter how stupid you think they are- the people here come here to help.
PBG has a great community spirit and you will learn so much perusing the fora, so don't hesitate to pitch in with questions and wisdom!
Cheers,
Eliot "Bass Guy" McCann

Hi Scott. Like BG said, there's heap of info contained within these pages, so read up. Knowledge is power.

Hi Scott.
Yep, I'm with Eliot and Pablo. Welcome. I hadn't made a guitar until the middle of last year and now I'm on my third. It's damn addictive, so be warned. I hope you have lots of fun and end up with a great axe. Pics and posts is what we live for here. Go for it.
Cheers,
Lawry

Welcome along Scott - what are the plans for the first guitar? If you're new to this whole schtick, I'd look Tele / Strat / Jazz Bass / P Bass - all 4 are pretty straightforward and give a great sound.
