     400+ completed and sold

     150+ ordered and in construction


    That's acoustic guitars and doesn't include the electrics that I've built.

5 But one of those I took apart to salvage what I could and one I should put a new top on but it sounds good and play easy so I'm just keeping it for me.

14 so far and several in various stages. It's more enjoyable for me if the
shapes and contours are all different. Matches my personality for the day!
That's scary!!!

Here are some mementos from most of mine... I only recently got smart and began labeling them.

Dang but aren't you the nosey one these days Hesh

How do you measure how many guitars built? Do kits count, solid body electrics, only build from scratch where the only hardware purchased was fret wire, tuning gears, end pins, nut and saddle blanks?

Built from scratch "4", assembly required "2", partial assembly required "1".   Five of the foregoing where built 25 to 30 years ago.
