DIY TL Style Electric Guitar Kits with Mahogany Body and Maple Neck - Maple Fingerboard and All Components Included (TL)

Arrived SUPER fast, and was very much as it was advertised. I really can't believe that they can put a quality guitar kit together for a little more than it would cost me to just buy the wood. Yes, the body is made up of three pieces of miss matched mahogany so a natural finish is out of the question. This guitar body is paint grade ready when it arrives. The neck is great, the frets are in very well. There are no gaps between the bottom of the fret and the neck, and they are well dressed. I did have to file a couple of frets down, so just a minor fret level job. Everything works great, but I will be changing out the pickups for a much higher quality pair. There is nothing wrong with the stock ones but they are a little shrill for my taste. All in all this is a GREAT kit at AMAZING price.

Not bad quality for a kit. Bought it as I was bored out my skull and at a loose end, assembles well, pretty simple. Took it to pieces again and sprayed it dark blue, looks professional.

To be honest you may as well throw the strings in the garbage cause that's exactly what they are. You can't even break them in cause they break while trying to tune them the first time. That being said I would not use strings just because they are available,I like to choose my sound and string type,only one style will do for me. The guitar is fairly easy to assemble and eventually you can find the setting for your strings on the bridge and set the kneck of the instrument to a satisfying position from which to make melody upon it. It's not the quickest guitar to play on but for the money I would say it's actually pretty decent. All and all ,I like it. It's got a nice sound if your into that Johnny Cash rockabilly sound and I am . This guitar is fun for me.

Firstly, I want to say that the build quality and the build experience was exceptional. Had the neck pick up worked this review would have had 5 stars, without question. However, the neck pick up does not work. What I wanted was a replacement pick up, after all the guitar was built, stained, oiled, and beautiful. What I was told was that the only option was to return that built guitar in return for another kit. That is rediculous, the pick up would cost pennies to replace, and I would not have to build another guitar. As it is I have had to buy a new pick up. Rediculous, the thing is of course that the new pick up will upgrade the guitar. I would have replaced the pick ups in a couple of years anyway, just not happy with the seller's response.

You will have to work, but it is worth the effort. I ended up owning a really, really good guitar
