These kits are super fun to build and very easy to work with. For the best results, I highly recommend getting the bridge placement template. All you need to supply is a box. The kit has everything else. You’ll only need a few tools (screwdriver or wrench, drill, and a little wood glue). This kit can easily be assembled in 60-90 minutes. The MGB Easy Box makes a great platform for this kit with its pre-cut sound hole and bracing designed to maximize both sturdiness and acoustics. Plus, you have all kinds of freedom to embellish or decorate to taste. Your only limits with this kit are your imagination. Definitely recommend this kit to anyone from a novice to an expert.
