I'm glad to see the pack growing Once again I'd like to thank wud for putting this together. I think it's served it's purpose very well in getting people motivated enough to stop planning and start building. Thanks man! |

I'd like to throw my hat in the ring with my 2nd build. Is there an entry fee, or do I just set up a thread and start posting? |

No charge, Lee, but there is one member who might try to exhort a goat from you! Just humour him - thats what the rest of us do! Welcome to the challenge! Alex |

How did you get away with one goat? And by the way, it's not extortion... it's "protection"... I was assured that there would be no cracks, splits, marks, or burns in my guitar if said member was duly appeased! (which is why I haven't started my guitar yet - I haven't found a goat of the proper persuasion) |

I'd love to get in the challenge! First build really, although I have built a guitar body (not the neck).............I have no chance of wining this but it would oblige me to finish a guitar. I still haven't painted the body I made, so I will paint that one, post it (not part of the challenge), and then start on not 1 but 2 guitars. My rules are; finish, fInish, fIniSH, FINISH! I hope I'm still in time, regards - R. |

Thank you Big Jim, all of us who enter will win experience and the joy of building a real instrument; a guitar. Before deciding which is for the challenge I'd better start building . |

Count me in. I finished my first build and posted a bit about it in the kit build section. I've just started build two and will use that for this challenge. It's a mahagony OM kit build. I'll get posting some pics ASAP. I learned a ton from build #1 and am looking forward to this build too! |

Ok I'm in, count me as a competitor for 2013 as I'm building my acoustic number 3 now (Mahogany Spruce) and will be building no 4 later ( Rosewood Spruce. There are no luthiers near me so it's just me and my workshop shed against the world! Hooway! Go band saw, go band saw, go saw go! |

I wonder who this goat loving member is? It can't be me because I am all stocked up on goats and goat memorabilia and have no need of more. |

Dave, don't despair!! "The second will be those who have 1 or 2 builds under their belt . Please specify in your first post what your building and if its your 1st , 2nd , 3rd build . " You're still in, if this is your third build! Sharpen those tools, and get back to work! Alex |

Would love to throw my hat into the ring. I am in the middle of my first build and have been for three years. With the umpteen jig builds, the crash and a move rendering me without a shop for a year and a half, it seems like I am no longer new to guitar building. I am close to having my new shop set up and am excited about continuing on. I am not sure of policy but either way I love this thread and will follow it till the end. Good luck to all! |
