    Hello - newbie waiting on the ESB-4!

    Hi All

    Just signed up recently. Newbie from Perth.

    Have purchased the semi hollow ESB4 and waiting for that to arrive. It will be my second build but my first Pitbull kit.

    Looking forward to it!

    Welcome to the Fun House! You have my envy, the ESB4 is on my "To Build" list, assuming i ever get through the other projects already on the Bench!
    I look forward to seeing how this one goes for you.

    Thanks FrankenWashie! Website says May/June delivery so it wont be for awhile yet.

    Have gone through some of the other semi hollow bass and guitar builds and I am looking forward to the set neck/glue, bridge and wiring challenges...

    Am in awe on some of the finishes in this forum. I struggled with that on my first build.

    I am 6-7 builds down and I still struggle with finishes! I find every build behaves differently and you learn different little things along the away with each.
