Thread: Hi from Canberra

  1. #1

    Hi from Canberra

    Hey guys,

    Just got my LP-1S in the post last week. I'm really looking forward to building it, though with two little kids it may be a slow process (I've barely managed to get past opening the box so far...)

    I've done a little instrument repair/set-up before, but only ever on junk shop acoustics and Mandolins, so I'm keen for the challenge of the electronic components.

    Glad to have found this forum too - seems like a great place.

    Thanks guys!

    I thought I'd include my son in the process. This is about as far as we got, but we had a lot of laughs.
