My first build, the KMG OM

Post by dave d » Sun Jul 01, 2012 11:39 pm

Many thanks to Ken, Dave B, and Tony C for their patience with me and help whenever I had questions.
I put the strings on today, and was initially worried that I would have to do a lot of fiddling in order to not have any fret buzz, but after all the strings were tensioned to the right notes, it all seems to have fallen into place. Sounds pretty awesome.

Very nice job!
So, my big brother was playing guitar and I figured I'd try it too.
