Step By Step Guitar Making

Making an acoustic guitar is much easier than you'd think.

This pattern is ideal for the fingerstyle player and offers great projection in the bass, middle and treble ranges.  In addition to building the guitar, you'll learn how to tune the soundboard, to place the frets accurately, and to adjust the action for comfortable paying. There is nothing mysterious about making a musical instrument: it's a fun woodworking project that incorporates basic woodworking skills. With the aid of tips and techniques in this book, and the enclosed full-size plans, you can craft a project that you'll play for years to come.
