It looks great. My son plays the electric guitat and I was thinking of making something like this.
Unfortunately I dont know mush about guitars but am good at the woodwork. How do start with such a project? Any tips would be welcome. I'm also an electronic engineer so the electronis wouldent be a problem either. Where can i source the good pickups etc for these?
Any tips would be grateful....

Hi, woodworkhead. Since you have good woodworking skills, you shoul start researching the tens of websites about the subject. I have done so, and it feels like the more you learn, the less you know.
I also advice you to read the e-book "Beginning Electric Guitar Design" by Paul Buerk, available for download at amazon.com.
Good luck.
