Upcoming Builds this Year

It has been ages since I've posted on here.

In the time that has elapsed, I've moved, changed jobs, been super busy, etc, and have neglected to put much time towards building the kits that I have.

However, now that everything is seemingly squared away, as soon as the weather stays consistently above 50, I'll be back to work on the following projects:

- 7 String Pitbull Explorer Kit - I need to get the bridge holes drilled, pick a paint color, pick the hardware, and then obviously paint and wire it up. Neck is glued, just need to do the rest.

- Precision Guitar Kits Les Paul kit - I need to pick paint and hardware for this one as well.  It's been glued, and that is about all.

- Matching 6 and 7 string Pitbull EX kits - Finally got the necks back from Pitbull after a manufacturing issue.  I need to shave the tenon on the 7 string neck a bit, and trim out the nut slot on both.  Once that is done, I can glue, paint, and assemble them.

- Another budget Les Paul kit build - Like the first guitar I built, this one is just a cheap chinese kit from eBay.  I have glued the neck, but need to drill the bridge holes, and figure out the finish and electronics.

This should keep me pretty occupied for a while.  I'll make sure to post up photos as progress gets made.
