Guitar Build Levels and Challenges
The ES Semi Hollow Gold Mahogany Kit is a thrilling project suited for expert builders looking for a rewarding challenge. While painting is relatively approachable thanks to the smooth mahogany body, careful attention is needed around the binding and neck sealing. Assembling demands precision, especially for the set-in neck with inclination — a step that leaves no room for errors once glued. Sound adjustment remains manageable, though the initial neck setup is key to achieving a great string action. If you're ready to take your skills to the next level, this stunning semi-hollow body is just waiting for your craftsmanship!
