    yeah it sounds gud but there are sum minor probs but managable.since this was the first guitar i made i din make the pick ups.i've actually forgotten the main thing in this guitar. i use Enfield gears(yeah the Bike) for knobs i removed it and forgot to put it back while takin the pic.

    ok here's how i made it.
    Started with the neck.i actually got it made from a guy since i din no much out makin em but he screwed it up big time.best thing to do i ur makin a guitar is to get the body and the neck made in a singe slab of wood.then u wudn't hav the problem of the string being too high from the fretboard.
    then got the body made.well its quite easy make a template of the shape u want using MDFbord head to a saw mill and get it made.
    k all this is gonna hardly cost u aroun 1000 bucks so u can actually get good
    pickups and bridge tuning knobs.i'll explain all that later.
