25.01.2022 Hope youre enjoying your weekend. I have 1 hollow body kit available. $230 plus $20 postage if youre in the Fastway network, otherwise get back to me and Ill get you an Australia Post price. Seen elsewhere for much more, so this is a great deal for the right person. As with all of these run outs, youre on your own, so only offer to buy this if you know what youre doing. First to reply saying they want it and pays gets it!
24.01.2022 I cant remember how this happened, but I ended up with a bunch of Firebird style necks (reverse headstock). Anyone interested at $30 each plus postage? If so, let me know your postcode.
24.01.2022 Second #2 - ST5 See purchasing details about this on previous post. This is a left-handed Strat style kit with all holes pre-drilled and headstock pre-cut. As in the previous listing, I can't see anything wrong with this and my guy didn't mark why it is a second. The neck is straight, there are no cracks in the body and all the parts are there. The tuner bag has been opened and I have a vague memory that the original buyer had a concern about the alignment of the screw holes,... but I might be dreaming and it looks good to me (see photos). $109 plus postage. Leave a comment saying "I want it" and send an email to [email protected] saying you want to buy the "ST-5".

21.01.2022 Prince will be remembered for many things, but its sometimes forgotten that he was a master guitarist. It takes a while until he unleashes, but watch this video as I promise it will be the best 6 minutes and 15 seconds of your day.

18.01.2022 [EDIT - SOLD. Ill list some more kits over the coming days] I've got 1 Explorer Bass kit available. $179 + postage.
17.01.2022 Here is the Tele kit I finished a couple of weeks ago. Walnut stain on the body and Tru-Oil finish. Added a couple of screws to the front of the bridge plate and that's it.
16.01.2022 [EDIT: SOLD] Second #1 - EX5 Hey everyone - its seconds time. I find myself with a rare moment of time and energy so I want to move a few seconds kits. Seconds are kits that have some sort of issue with them, so theyre not for you if youre a beginner or if you want perfection. As before, I dont have the time or resources to support you with your build, so only buy these if youre comfortable on your own (although I can probably supply a wiring diagram).... First up is an Explorer style which probably isnt a second as I cant see anything wrong with it. It has a note saying "no tone", but it does have both knobs and pots so I dont know what I was talking about and as such this is probably all good, but again if you run into trouble, youre on your own to resolve. This is a great deal at $159 plus postage. Postage is $20 if youre in a suburb where Fastway delivers. Otherwise leave a comment with your postcode and suburb and Ill work out price via Aus Post. If you want it, leave a comment saying "I want it" and email [email protected] saying you want to buy the "EX-5". Well send you a link to pay via PayPal. First in gets it. Payment must be made within 1 day otherwise Ill make it available again.
15.01.2022 Hello Facebookers - As many of you know, I was forced to close this business a couple of years ago to concentrate on helping one of my kids work through a serious illness. He's damaged, but doing well. There is one kit that fell into the too hard basket that I'm finally ready to offer. I got to a point where I wanted to supply some models that came with better quality parts. So with this particular kit, I decided to include Wilkinson P90s and Wilkinson tuners plus a better q...uality bridge. Good idea in theory, but as the kit and parts came from different suppliers, we missed it by a fraction. As you'll see in the photos, the routing is ever so slightly too small and as such the pickups don't quite fit. If you can handle that, then please consider taking one off my hands. Here's the deal: 1) This is for advanced builders only. This is a challenging build and requires much patience. The nature of this top is such that the burly bits are glued into place and this is a pain to sand. You've got to find a balance between working through the glue marks without sanding too much otherwise you'll sand through the top. Obviously, you'll also need to fix the routing which means you need the correct jig or have the skills to workaround this issue. If you have the skills and patience, you could end up with a guitar looking like the finished one in the last photo. However you have been warned - you need to know what you're doing. 2) The old version of this kit (see http://www.diyguitars.com.au//gibson-335-semi-hollow-diy-/) sold for $399 which only had standard parts. I was going to sell this one for $449 with the three upgraded parts which would have been great value. However to clear these out, I'm asking $329 PLUS postage. If you're in the Fastway delivery network postage will be $20 and you'll need to sign for it. Otherwise I'll work out the Australia Post charge including signature. 3) You're on your own. There is no support offered from us, however you might find help elsewhere on the Internet. There are no refunds, except as stipulated by law. In summary - it's a great deal at $329 plus postage, but you need to carefully consider if you have the skills and patience to build it. Want one? Don't wait around as THERE IS LIMITED STOCK. Email [email protected] with your suburb and Tina will confirm the final price with shipping. If you have any questions about the kit, don't email, ask here instead.
15.01.2022 Your mother told you to wash behind your ears, but you need to clean your neck too! https://www.reddit.com//c/bmmlyt/this_cleaned_guitar_neck/
14.01.2022 Second #4 - RBX-5 See first post for today about the deal with seconds. It's hard to sugar-coat this one but, I'll have a go. This would be an awesome kit except for the fact that the neck is severely warped. I've tried to capture this in a photo, but it doesn't do it justice. This thing is unplayable. ... Build it, stick it in a corner and impress your friends. Just make sure you've got a great excuse ready when they ask you to play it. Or use it to practice your staining. Let's call this one 40 bucks plus postage. Comment with "I want it" and then write to [email protected] with your postcode and suburb.
13.01.2022 Second #3 - LP5 See first post today about the deal with seconds. This is a Les Paul style with flame maple top, but look at the photo and you'll see the apprentice was on duty that day. The two halves aren't even close to being a match. HOWEVER just ignore that, go with a solid colour finish and enjoy the savings. This is $135 plus postage.... Comment with "I want it" and send an email to [email protected] saying you want the "LP-5".

07.01.2022 No encouragement necessary. KISS Guy bought his own pick and did not disappoint. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z4b6BPaO944 It's Foo Fighters so language warning applies.
07.01.2022 [EDIT: SOLD - pending payment] I have 2 x 240ml (8oz) bottles of Tru-Oil. $25 INCLUDING postage Australia-wide. These can only be sent via road mail, so depending on how far you are from Sydney, they could take longer to arrive than regular parcels. NOTE: this is of course new stock, however they have been sitting around for a while and the labels look a bit tired.... The first 2 people who reply and then pay get them!
