All told I was £600 🙂 £330 to Mark for the build and for supplying fret wire/ truss rod and a blank of bone for the nut; the rest was on me. The costly items for me were the Bloodstone pickup and the Gotoh bridge, nearly half the parts/material budget for those 2 😀 I'd bought the panga panga neck/fret board blanks and the utile for the body a few year back, they came from a timber merchant. Same story for the walnut drop top. You can make some pretty serious savings on parts/materials by avoiding any suppliers with the words "Guitar", "Luthier" or "Tonewood" in their trading name 🤣 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
