    I don’t even play but I’d love to assemble a guitar.

      I do play and I absolutely guarantee any guitar I would try assemble would play so so badly. Setting up a guitar is an exercise in precision engineering with wood.

        an exercise in precision engineering with wood

        With wood, an hilariously imprecise material (for anyone who doesn’t know). It refuses precision on principle first, and then just on occasion, at every opportunity later.

        That delicious (infuriating) imprecision is probably why it can sound so frickin great, though, so…

        These kits do come with step by step manuals, but one of the reasons to get one in the first place is to modify it. It makes sense to figure out what each part does, instead of following a manual.
