Well, you want a nice resonating wood like Basswood or Mahogany. For the fretboard, I recommend rosewood. Buy machine heads, pickups, volume and tone knobs and a bridge. Maybe a pickup selector as well. Shape and sand the body, neck and fret board to a desired shape. Carve out a "box" on the bottom of the guitar. This where the volume and tone knobs and pickup selector's wires will go. Carve hole on top of the "box". This is where the knobs and selector will come out through the body. Then put in the bridge . Put this on top at the edge facing out. The bridge holds the strings in place. I recommend using a level. then put in the machine heads on the neck of the guitar. Make sure the machine heads' paths don't conflict. String it up. Tune it up. Play it up!

How-to build a gretch guitar?

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.
