Guitar Building Basics

Acoustic guitars make the perfect woodworking project.

Whether you're a professional musician or simply an interested wood worker,

building a guitar is a very satisfying project.

Guitar Building Basics presents three, start-to-finish assembly sequences

. Each sequence uses high quality color photography to illustrate every step of the process;

from gluing on the top and bottom of the guitar,

to installing the strings,

and sanding the frets for a perfect set up.

The assemblies include everything from a fairly simple renaissance guitar kit, to a full,

dreadnought guitar assembled in a professional shop.

With the help of this new Guitar-Building book,

nearly any amateur wood worker can buy a guitar kit and assemble the whole thing at home using basic woodworking tools.

The key is patience and a good set of instructions

- provided by this new book with over 500 color images spread across 144 pages.

A talented musician with a guitar collection of his own,

Beau Allen Pacheco is the perfect author for this book.

Beau documents all the steps and skills needed to do a quality job,

then moves on to discuss the different types of wood, the tools you need, and how to set up the neck.

Whether you're a guitar player looking to buy a quality instrument for a bargain price, or a craftsman looking for that next project,

Guitar Building Basics will help you find the best kit and assemble it into a

finished guitar you'll be proud of for the rest of your life.
