I must admit that I was gobsmacked (really impressed) by your guitar. You've done a brilliant job here and it looks an absolutely beautiful guitar. ย 

I also watched Mark's videos twice, and made loads of mistakes, but have to admit that it was a great experience.

You should feel rightly proud of your achievement. Well done.

Acoustic builds always seem more "skilled craftsman" to me compared to electrics - it's the main reason I've never tried one.

So, congrats on that.ย  The back wood looks pretty wow - that's going to look great on your electric build.

Nice work. There is a great amount of satisfaction when you finish your first build and an acoustic as well.

Well chuffed.

@russ, yes mate. It's a lefty.

@bpower, yeah I like the back aswell. Still got some of that species of wood left. Thinking of using it for an electric project next year.ย
