This was a great value to me as a seasoned builder, I was able to create a very nice acoustic/electric bass guitar. Most of the hardware, like the tuners, are cheap and not worth the effort to install. I replaced the preamp with one that only required two small holes for the volume and tone, I used an end jack so I wouldn't have to add another hole. I pegged the bridge to prevent it from being pulled up by the string tension, and used up graded tuners and strings. I ended up with an instrument on par with ones costing much more. I would not recommend this kit to a beginner, there are too many things that have to taken care of before the kit was even started.

Just received this book today. So far I have looked at a few photos & read a few pages. This is exactly what I was looking for! Tells you what tools you need, plans are located in an envelope in the back, step-by-step instructions, etc.

If you are considering building an acoustic guitar or even if you just want to know how a guitar is constructed, this book is VERY comprehensive. Explains types of woods, tools used and techniques. Well put together and easy to read and understand. I highly recommend.
