U sing this guide
This guide is formatted into an easy step-by-stepmanual to guide you in building bolt-on style guitars. The initial proceduresfocus on installing the neck correctly so that hardware can be properlyinstalled and aligned to the neck. Being that there are many variations onguitar kits out there, you may find that some steps or the specific order ofassembly dont apply to you. It is perfectly fine to jump ahead throughout thebook accordingly to take advantage of the directions as needed. For example, itmay be more efficient for you to solder your electronics first. Simply jump aheadto the wiring section and come back to neck installation when youre ready.
