Guitar Build Levels and Challenges
The FV Guitar Kit is perfect for beginner builders, offering a smooth build process from start to finish: the mahogany body’s slight porosity means minimal grain filler is needed for a sleek finish (though its distinctive shape calls for extra care to avoid drips); assembly is effortless thanks to a bolt-on neck without inclination, pre-drilled pots that eliminate bridge-positioning guesswork (we still recommend checking scale length for accuracy), and soft mahogany that welcomes pre-drilling and screwing; and dialing in sound and playability is straightforward with a Tune-o-Matic bridge for precise intonation and height adjustment, a removable nut for customization, and no neck angle to complicate the initial string-action setup.
