hello
Scott from Minnesota. Although I've sorta..kinda played around with a guitar for a while I decided maybe if I spent the time to make one I'd be inspired to actually learn how to play. Built the one in the photo last winter when it was to cold outside to do much else then surfed around the net for lessons until I landed here. Been a target member for 5 or 6 weeks and made progress on several songs I've butchered for years...thanks for the great song selection Neil! SS

Hey Scott! Welcome to the Target program! My granddad was an old Swede fom Duluth. Said you guys grow some pretty good sized 'skeeters on those lakes!
So how did the guitar you built turn out? What did you learn that you would or wouldn't do again?
Glad you are busy working on Neil's lessons. It's like trying to tazke a sip of water from a firehose right?!
So tell us a little about your guitar goals and your musical tastes. Where do you want this musical journey to take you?
Cheers! :cheer:

I can't argue about the skeets but it's the small ones that come in waves that you have to look out for! Firehose yep perfect.. The built turned out way better than I hoped it might. Learned a ton about guitars in the process and will do another when I have a chance. Now if I invest the same time playing as building we'll se where it goes. SS

There you go Scott.... told you the guys would be really interested in your home-made guitar. You could get some more detailed pics up and start a thread about how you went about it and the whole experience... I'm sure that would be very appreciated. ANd again: Welcome! Chris
