Antonio Torres guitar kit? 
Has anyone here ever tried building a flamenco guitar from a "kit" ? I've seen several of these for sale -- for example, there is a kit on eBay for sale for a Torres F12 flamenco, copied after the original design form the 19th century. I was wondering if any knows whetherr any of these kits are worth it----are there some kit suppliers better than others or who have a better reputation in terms of the product and assembly instructions they sell?

i'd say it looks fairly well put together. then again, they are pictures. for3 00 bucks,the worst it could end up being is a conversation piece. It might be a good cheap way to get some basic assembly skills together, but where's the fun in that!
