Yeah man, they are relatively easy to make. If you've ever built a birdhouse, you are qualified to build a CBG ;-)

Wow, that's a great first build. My first build took about two hours, and you can tell by looking at it too. I bet you are already thinking about number 2.

Great first build, got a video demo of it?

My first build was ace, second and third not so much, then the fourth was ace. Been kinda up and down really. I never know how they'll end up because I don't plan them, just go with the flow.

I sometimes doodle a headstock shape on paper but it just evolves as I make it. I just made a dandy looking neck for #22 and I went too far with the chisel and chopped right through it lol
