    Hi everyone,

    Just received my TLA-1 kit in the mail.

    This will be my first build. I am very keen to see how it all turns out.

    yes Welcome Tom, ask any questions, most of the forum have plenty of builds under their belt and are part of the addiction ! Best of luck. Fire off any questions in your build diary and take your time. Where are you based ? If you are in colder areas I'd allow 48 hours between wudtone coats in winter months

    Welcome indeed, young Tom (when you get to my age you can say that with reasonable confidence). Hope you have a lot of fun building your guitar and I, too, will be watching it evolve with interest.
