Anxiously awaiting my next builds

Back in March, I ordered a pair of kits from Pitbull Guitars (http://www.pitbullguitars.com/).

On top of that, I received a bunch of gift certificates for my birthday to purchase a Precision Guitar kit (http://buy.precisionguitarkits.com/).

Looking forward to building these kits... However, as each is coming from outside of the US, it is taking a bit of time to get them. Patience is not always a strong quality of mine. Hopefully they get here soon, so I can build some sweet axes.
