March's Guitar of the Month Winner!

Guitar of the Month Winner March 2023

We’re pleased to announce that Nathan H. is the latest winner of our Guitar of the Month contest! This 6 string is built using Combine's Multiscale TCS DIY Kit. Here is his story:

"I've always been interested in building my own guitar, and lately I've been watching videos about multiscale instruments. When I searched for a multiscale Tele body, I was pleasantly surprised to find that someone is actually selling DIY kits. I would finally be able to try my hand at making a guitar to my vision, and ultimately end up with something really well built and unique for a great price. I live in a small apartment and haven't done any woodworking since highschool, but I was willing to give it my best shot.

With minimal trips to some stores, I was able to get a result I'm very pleased with. Being constrained on space and ventilation, I went with water based stain, sanding sealer, and gloss polycrylic that were all wipe-on products. I bolted the neck to the body, and hung it from my pull-up bar in the bathroom with some shoestrings through the tuning-peg holes, and applied the products that way. The kit was very easy to assemble fully afterwards, and my girlfriend only had to hear minimal frustrations while I put it together. If I can do it, I believe anyone can." - Nathan M.

Nathan will receive 50% off the base price of his next DIY Guitar Kit, and his build has been shared on our website and social media.
