    <insert enthusiastic greetings>

    Hello. First time kit assembler with lots to learn, but interested in the challenge.
    I've got the RD kit and intend to make a guitar with my bands album artwork on it.

    Chris.

    Hi Chris and welcome to the forum.

    Good luck with the build. Don't forget to start a build diary, it's the best way to get help and ask questions.

    Welcome to the forum. Do you have a plan for how you will be getting the artwork on the guitar?

    The plan is to have a decal printed up and stuck to the body, then apply the poly finish over that.
