ORIGINAL: Jim Opfer Simon, Where'd you get all those Formers for the top and all those tools? Fantastic bit of work, and your first guitar? You'll need to post an Audio when she's strung up. Thanks, it's fun but the winter sucks for this, I need natural light, warmth and low humidity. The solera, formers etc. are made out of scrap MDF and plywood. All the instructions are from a couple of books and the plans from "Making Master Guitars". I spent about £500 on tools down at B&Q and specialist luthier suppliers, the rest I already had. Yes, it's my first guitar. It's my first piece of woodworking since school. I will post an audio later in the year, if it doesn't collapse on stringing.
