This is a classic T style guitar that probably has thousands of videos on Youtube showing how to build it. I used a neck made by Warmoth so this will focus on building the guitar body itself.

Instructions

Although this is the one of easiest guitars to build the steps involved are numerous. I have included a guide PDF for the depths of all pockets and the drill paths connecting them. Lets have a conversation in the Community about all the steps and i'll upload some pictures of my process. https://community.shapertools.com/t/generic-t-style-guitar/2719 If you want to build this you should have all the parts needed to built it prior to starting.
