I don't want to discourage you, but I don't think you really know what it takes to actually make a guitar. Its not something you learn in a high school shop class. There are so many factors that go into making a guitar. Any dent or curve can change the sound of the guitar from great, to completely unplayable. There is a reason you never hear about people making their own guitars. You really have to be an expert to do it correctly.


Edit: I think it was this forum but Im not sure. Wasn't there a thread somewhere that someone had where they were making their own guitar from scratch? They kept updating it with progress and they finished it eventually. Ill try to find it.

Edit 2: FOUND IT! RobSm made the thread about his experience
