The Guitar You've Always Wanted. Build It.

Yes. Most of our customers are first-time builders and finish with great results. Every kit ships with a build guide, and we publish free written tutorials and full YouTube courses for our most popular kits, so you can see every step before you start.

Everything you need to build your guitar: pre-shaped body, neck with frets installed, all hardware (bridge, tuners, knobs, strap buttons), pickups, electronics, strings, and an Allen wrench. You only need to add sandpaper, a screwdriver, and your choice of finish.
