Guitar Build Levels and Challenges
The FB DIY Guitar Kit is beginner-friendly, offering a smooth and stress-free building experience. The mahogany body is easy to paint, and its even grain takes finishes well, while the maple neck is smooth and ready to install without extra prep. Assembly is straightforward thanks to the bolt-on neck and pre-drilled cavities for effortless wiring. The soft mahogany makes pre-drilling and screwing components into place a breeze, reducing the risk of splitting or misalignment. Setting up the instrument is just as simple, with a tune-o-matic bridge that allows for easy intonation and string height adjustments. Plus, the flat neck angle helps simplify action setup, making this kit a perfect first build for aspiring luthiers.
