Ok.... I have gotten the bug after #1. Luckily, I have two people that each want me to build them a guitar. I am not charging for my time... they are paying for supplies only. It will give me a chance to hone my skills on someone else's dime. It will be slow going, to say the least, but would be interested in any comment or criticisms along the way while I build/learn.

Thanks for looking!

Nice job, beautiful wood. I'm learning exactly the same way...have some people to build for for the cost of materials...supportive guinea pigs! bliss

I'm hooked too! Good luck, Beth
