So, I have never built a electric guitar. I started searching on a website a friend told me about called byoguitars that has a les paul junior(149.99) with a set neck(this is thier recommended first time builders kit). Then I found Warmoth and saw that they had the LPS which is a dream guitar for me( I play the hardrocking blues).
I have a strat with tremolo( I hate it and have blocked so it will not move),I have a ibanez artcore Semi-hollow dealo. I like the strat because you can put your hand on the strings better, plus the idea of having a hardtail start is awesome. However, I like the look of the LPS or LP JR.
So here are my questions:
Would it be better to buy the kit and learn from it first, my concern is that I will spend a lot of money on the warmoth and make a expensive mistake!
Or
Buy the warmoth LPS and piece the thing together and hope that I don't make the mistakes.
Also, has anyone built a LPS with a strat hardtail on it which will not look authentic but will have the feel of a strat for me and plus it is simple to work on at least for me?
Last question-Or should I just do a chambered start with F-hole(my opinion question)?
