Hi all,
So this is my first ever guitar build and it’s safe to say that I’m a COMPLETE NOVICE!!!!!
I’ve ordered a AES-1 kit which has cleared customs now so thought I’d start my diary in anticipation on it arriving hopefully later this week.
I’m planning on staining the guitar in a cherry sunburst finish so any tips/advice/in-depth instructions on how to do that would be much appreciated!
I also will be swapping much of the hardware as I go for upgrades but we can go into that more as I progress!
So really right now I was hoping for any hints/tips/things to look out for from you guys? I’ll be asking a lot of questions so please be patient with me and I apologise in advance for if it gets too much!
I run a music school in Surrey and play in a few bands so am really hoping I end up with a guitar I can use on a regular basis!
Anyway, thanks chaps and I can’t wait to get started!
Matt
