Title: Think Twice
Review: I have just finished reading "Constructing a Solid Body Guitar". If you are wanting a step by step book to teach you how to build an electric guitar, this is probably not the book you are looking for. There are plans in the book, but the body was resized to allow it to fit on the page. The information contained in the book is good, but not near complete enough to allow the average person that has never built an instrument to construct a nice guitar.Having said this, I have a great deal of respect for Roger Siminoff. I recently purchased and finished reading his book,The Ultimate Bluegrass Mandolin Construction Manual. I seriously doubt you could find a better book on building a Mandolin.I expected "Constructing a Solid Body Guitar" to be the same quality. I really don't know what happened when this book was written.
Is the review positive or negative?
