    Again thanks all for the welcome.
    I'm thinking I may start with an ES-12G kit, I can't find anything in the forum about them other than the sales presentation.
    Ideally I'd like to see a couple of photos of members finished projects and read comments on the build.
    Can anybody supply a link?

    Thanks heaps for the link, don't know why I couldn't find it, I did put a lot of time into it to no avail
    Man you're spot on when you said it should inspire me.
    One problem ... my wife put her hand up for the upcoming build and her idea on finish is way different to mine so at this time I suspect we will be doing two ES-12G's this year .

    Just ordered my first from Pit Bull, an ES-12G but already thinking about my second.
    Good grief, someone hit me on the head please.

    well done Corksniffer,
    I guarantee it won't be your last build. GAS is more addictive than any other thing/drug on the planet ! hahah

    If I where closer I would be more than happy to oblige the hit on the head lol
    Then I would clear out your "Strat Stash" and that sweet new TWEED Fender amp and run lol
    Congrats my friend!

    Cant wait to see the build thread!!!! ---- the sickness spreads ---
