  • I recently finished a Precision Guitar Kits X-Type build, so I thought I would share a little of my experience with the entire process. I am very happy with the end result! I think it looks and sounds great!

    You did a great job on the build, and it turned out beautifully! Really something to be proud of!
    I have the same kit, and want to do an amber stain on it also, when time permits. Hopefully it turns out half as nice as yours. I agree the layout of the tuners are definitely too far apart, makes the trees a necessity. Other than that, the kit is top notch!
    Thanks for posting the video and sharing the steps you took on the build & finish!

      Thanks man! Also check out the kits from Stewmac if you live in the states. You get a lot for the money! That's gonna be my next build I think

    What a beauty! I’m glad you put your name on it. I want to build one almost just like it. Making a parts list now.
    I agree, it could have been a little bit more yellow, but I think the finished product looks just fine, as it is. I’m worried about getting the finish right, myself.
    In my search, for what I want to build, yours is at the top.

      It’s a very tricky process and I can’t guarantee success on your first attempt. This was my 3rd and I am about to start a new project after the summer. Sometimes you can get confused with all the different tutorials on RUclips.

      That’s awesome! I’m sure I’ll be back to ask. Especially about the finish.
      I used to mess around and mod guitars, when I was a kid, some 45 years ago. I’d swap out, and sometimes add pickups, change caps, and add resistors. I know the hardware & electronics. I’ve just never used a finish. I always just spray painted them. Lol

    The way guitar prices are now, you’re better off building your own.what did that run you? About 1700? Not a bad deal at all. You built a Gibson and saved a grand.

    Man, it looks great, but you spend a lot of money on that.Instead of buying a gibson and then you put a gibson logo on it you could have just bought a gibson

      Thanks for your comment! I think I might have exaggerated the amount just a bit, probably around 1500$ in total. A Gibson is a lot more! But I still love it anyway!
      Cheers
