Thread: A Spanish man in Australia

    A Spanish man in Australia

    Ey guys, is good to meeting you. My name's Antonio but if you prefer, you can call me Ghaynas, I live in Spain and this is my first try building guitars. I've just ordered an LP kit, exactly the LP-1M kit and cannot wait to putting my hands on it, but I'm going to do it slowly so I hope not making too many mistakes. Also I hope learning a lot from all of you, I've seen a lot of posts with great and useful information, I still have a lot to read before my kit gets into my home hahaha.

    It's going to be a big pleasure for me sharing with all of you the builnding process, with a lot of photos as you like hehehe I hope to learn a lot from you.

    Greetings!

    Thanks both of you for the wellcome. When the kit reaches my hands I'll start my diary because I have tons of questions, too many doubts in my head, manly for the set neck, I'm afraid it would be a too hard task to start by a newbie like me, but the decision is already made, there's no turning back here hahaha.

    And by the way, Wokkaboy. I'm afraid that I have an absolute lacking of knwoledge about Moto GP in my mind there's place for guitars only hahaha

    Oh thanks so much Deadman and Simon, I still have so many things to learn, mainly for the set neck, I'm afraid for not doing it right. I'm reading a lot of posts at the forum and I'm learning a lot. It's great that exists a forum like this, one can learning altmost everything here.

    One of the first things to learn is not to panic if you think (or know) something's gone wrong. There's almost always a way to fix it. But I hope that it all goes well for you.

    Thank you Simon. That's the idea I'm getting. I'm reading a lot of posts and in all of them find a solution, that's very calming here.
