JOHN REIDS FIRST KIT
Please excuse the quality of the photos
This is my first attempt at guitar building
Although not overly fancy, it is a great sounding
guitar. Actual hours spent on the kit were about 36
But I did spend almost that much more time making
jigs and tools that can be reused.
I made my share of mistakes, mostly cosmetic and
from them have learned what to do on the next one.
