Nice deal. I am staining it now, and getting ready for the build. This is a great deal $. The maple neck with the rosewood is a winner for sure. Cant wait to play it.
- DBDaniel B.Rated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoSounds and looks great
I bought this for my kid. It was quite a work to assemble it, but in the end it finished real good, sounds and look great. Recommended if you have tons of free time.
- MMitchehmuRated 5 out of 5 stars1 year agoExcellent experience/ Wont be my last kit
To start, was enthused that this company offered such exotic kits. Was my first, will not be my last.
My first extended range too.
- It arrived swiftly (unusual for my location) and well-packaged.
- All parts complete, the fretted neck was BEAUTIFUL*.
- The assembly, finish and sautering were a concern going in for a newbie (me), but with the kit instructions and enough youtube videos, very smooth build.
- Having the pre-routed string holes/ tuner holes and pickup cavities were BIG for this novice not mis-stepping.
- Single knob electronics allowed for relatively easy sauter job
- Took 6 months (could have been less if needed) to build
- Feels awesome to play, definitely worth the budget. All day, everyday baby.
- His name is Norman and he seems to really like tapping.
*Not knowing the "neck-feel" was a big barrier before building something, before i'd held it.
So glad the Combine Luthier seems to have a particular talent for a reeeally nice neck.
PS: I emailed the company to say how excited/thankful I was, they got back to me the same hour with handwritten email. A++ communication
See you for some B A S S soon, Combineguitars!
