How-to build a gretch guitar

Answer 1

Only Gretsch can build a Gretsch guitar. You might want to build a copy of a Gretsch guitar. There are quite a few different models, most of which are acoustic or semi-hollow bodied. To make a hollow-body guitar requires a lot of craftmanship.

You might want to start out building a solid body guitar, which is much easier, but you will get familiar with some of the woodworking techniques used in more advance guitar making.

If you start with a solid body guitar, you are pretty sure to finish up with a good playable guitar, which will help motivate you to continue improving.
