Welcome @Peebee and yes sign up for the course. You will be building in no rime for sure.

Hi Pete (et al), I would just like to put in a word for the acoustic guitar here as I feel it is being somewhat maligned as a possible home build project. I came to all this from completely the opposi...

@peebee Thanks for your compliment, I impressed myself with what I managed to build. Hopefully I shouldn't have too many mistakes to document on my next build, I'll try my best not to repeat any, no ...

you're too scared to do the acoustic course in case you have to burn something you spent weeks making 😊 Yup. I am very aware of my limitations! I keep wondering about taking on an acoustic...

@tv101 Cheapskate! I bought the old skool courses too but have just levelled up to Premium on account of the bolt on neck, pending finishing and acoustic bridge courses ..... but I forget....... you'r...

Now, I'm *not* a premium member (as yet) because I got the course from years back when Mark first put them online (different platform). Which is one of the reasons that I've been really looking forwar...
