Guitar kit arrived in good time from ordering

Guitar kit arrived in good time from ordering. All parts seem to be of reasonable quality and neck is smooth and straight. Have not yet completed the kit as I am French Polishing the body which takes time. Once completed and assembled I will be in a better position to assess neck, bridge and string clearance, but so-far so-good.

This was my first ever build, and I gotta say this was an amazing experience for me.
I owned a lot of guitars over the years, but there is something special about making something your own.
In this case, I grabbed a replacement flame maple neck (which thankfully fits almost perfectly), switched out the control plate for a traditional tele style, and make my own pickguard out of some veneered plywood.
This guitar inspired me so much I actually ended up making some music with it:

I was really impressed with the service you guys gave me after an initial communication issue. The kit looks great, with a fantastic level of finish. I especially looked at how the frets are fitted and finished, and cannot fault it. I will be assembling shortly.

Great Kit and lovely guitar. I finished in the classic dark red and poly finish. One note to Blackbeardsden. Please actually list the stains etc you sell on the shop as items. If I had known that I would have bought red stain powder, but its not easy to find on your site. I found it via a google link after the fact so I had to find an alternative paint. Guitar is still curing so no photos to link yet. I added my own full size pots, gibson thick wires and my own pickups. So can’t comment on those that come with the kit. The rest of the hardware looks decent and high quality, very similar to the Les Paul kit which is great.

Great kit at a great price.... Great base to build from, as the cuts and alignments are well done, allowing for easy modifications and customizations.

I haven’t built the kit yet but I did a test fit. Everything fits perfectly and the wood is good quality!

Got the kit for my birthday, and I have to say, I was very impressed by the build quality. The body and neck are well constructed and feel solid, and the electronics were pre-soldered and assembled, barring the pickups, which was awesome. Can't recommend this kit enough, it sounds amazing, and came out beautifully (looking past some mistakes in the finish which was entirely my fault).
