BYOF-300 made by Morgan in 5 days on our May build your own first guitar course.
Morgan joined Toby, Graeme (right hand) and Graham (left hand) on the last course and made this, his own custom version of the Bailey Bandsman.
He chose a really beautiful piece of figured maple for the body which was large enough for it to be made in one piece, with a satin finish. He also upgraded his hardware to gold but apart from that it is pretty much standard.
Well done Morgan – nicely done.
I will follow up with individual posts for each guitar so keep an eye on the blog if you are interested to see what the others made.
