first build

Posted by baltimonster on December 9, 2014 at 4:44pm
My first build. Maybe nothing special to many, but special to me for sure. I learned a good amount from the build, and am looking to make some more now that I have better tools. I used the GittyMan manual (http://www.gittyman.com/Make_a_CigarBoxGuitar.html) which made things way easier than starting from scratch. All of the gear needed was provided in easy to fink links which made the headache stuff less of a headache. I even lost the manual and Mordecai was super prompt about sending me another copy, with a smile (or so I imagined based on his email).

    That is one nice guitar. Well done! Its amazing how much you do learn on that first build.
    Beware though as building these things is highly addictive

    Well done buddy.

    Only just completed my first build also, so I know how you feel.
    So many mistakes, so much to learn, but so rewarding.

    Looks good, and very nice pic leaning up against the Fender Amp.
