    Default Anyone in Townsville NQ...

    I was wondering if anyone located in Townsville would be willing to show me their luthier setup as I am a bit lost with all the choices,

    1) Which tools are required to start out?
    2) Whats a good source of info to start building (book/dvd) wise? I am interested in all types of guitars but have a thing for classical & arch tops.
    3) Good source of aussie & overseas timbers ?
    4) Should I start with a kit ?

    Would really appreciate some guidance,

    Wayne

    I'm from Sydney so I can't help ya. I might be wrong but I think Alan nay be from nq. He is building an archtop. I could be thinking of someone else. Obviously the humidity up there is a big problem for guitar building. Someone around here should be able to help you.

    G'day Wayne,

    Yep, I live in Townsville. If you live up this way I don't mind you having a look through my workshop. It won't take you long as it is a room the size of a single garage.

    Cheers

    Alan
