    Wanting a PRS is what brought me to kit building. Too damn expensive to buy. Bought a relatively expensive PRS style kit from Alibaba with a 2-3 cm thick flame maple cap. Then I realised that I had none of the skills required to actually build a good guitar. That's how I found Pitbull and the PRS-1H. I now have 6 kits to build. . . and still haven't finished any.

    You are not alone KuanJB...but if I might offer perspective.....

    In progress Builds
    ST-1 for a mate (This is actually progressing)
    SMST "Reverse Hendrix" (This has stalled)
    ESR-1E FrankenReso (This is about to get some colour)
    IB-Freebie (This has to be stripped down as the basswood body has some issues)
    Cliche Black LP (GAAAAAHHHH!)
    Silent Baritone Build (Still sanding)

    Waiting on shelf:
    FV-Custom (have not yet touched it)
    ST Custom, Unwanted kit (Damned Igor!)
    IB-5 Custom, Unwanted kit (Damned Igor again!)

    Add to that the raw timber for probably another 5 scratch builds. (This was all me)

    You're really not doing too bad!

    Hand crafting guitars, because Death Rays are expensive.

    When you think about it FW, your just doing the community a solid justice by ensuring the unwanted kits have a caring home. It's really the right thing to do haha

    I've got 3 on the go right now and I had to excersise restraint this morning while I watched an IB-5 count down the last seconds on eBay . Tick..no..tick...no...tick.. MAYBE..tick..NO!tick..

    Just saw this build on Facebook. Not quite as carved as a PRS.

    This is exactly what i'm looking for. I admit would love the cut away in the bottom horn (especially given my lack of woodworking ability / tools) but would settle for this for sure. With a few binding colour options and top options this would be awesome.
