Before I get started, I would like to say that I not experienced luthier (stringed instrument). I tried my best, to do my own research, and follow the plans for my guitar design, but only time will tell whether I was successful. If you decide to make your own guitar, please do your own research with professional guides. There are several amateur luthier communities online, and good books. I personally build your own acoustic guitar - by Jonathan Kinkead, found at my local library.
