59 Carved Top Custom

Hey guys,

Just wanted to say thank you for an amazing kit! Wanted to make something look like they stripped and customized an old 53’ gold top with wild one piece top underneath. You guys nailed it out of the park!

The X is also another PGK that I had a ton of fun building.  Will be ordering more. Thanks!

54 Single Cut JR Custom

The build itself was as expected from the highest rated guitar kit company I could find.  Neck glued right in, and the frets are perfect.  I just rolled the neck edges very slightly for comfort.  The volume of sound coming from the pickup cavity before installing the pickup was amazing!

The guitar still has the setup strings on it, but sounds great with every amp I have tried.  Modded Marshall JCM 800, 1934 Supro, and Fender Hot Rod with pedals all give great results.  The extra treble you would expect from the Black Limba can be dialed back with the tone knob, and the 100% rolled off woman tone is the most usable, pleasing tone of any guitar I own.

I highly recommend Precision Guitar Kits for anyone interested in building a guitar you actually will want to play.  Besides, scouring the internet for each piece of the guitar is way better then getting a bag full of the cheapest  of everything available.

J-Bass

Wanted to send the build I finished from your J Bass kit. The quality was top notch and this came out even better than I had imagined it could have for a first time build. Thank you Precision Guitar Kits!

58 Double Cut JR

Here are some pics of the Junior I picked up on clearance.  This my 3rd kit and it’s as awesome as the other 2.  I loaded it with mojotone vintage taper cts pots and a low/vintage wind P90 from Gravelin Pickups.  Painted it Surf Green using Mixol tints and Target Coatings waterbased EM1000 sealer and EM6000 waterbased lacquer for clear.
