Hi all, Im noobie gitfiddle builder, currently living in Sydney, ex Melbourne, ex audio engineer, currently a bus driver (wtf?) and have no clue about pretty much everything, so I shall be pestering you with many many questions
I have started with a STA-1M (I looove strats) but planning on a LP and a hollow body down the road.
Welcome! I hope you're ready for fun, and frustration... and a sense of accomplishment when you finish your build!
Take pictures and share them, and feel free to ask any questions here, a great group of guys like to help!
Thanks GK, I have started the build diary, already had the frustration bit, but its all good now!
