planchetguitars

I am an amateur Luthier, building guitars in my basement when I can find the time to work on them. While I've dabbled in building guitars in the past (assembling a guitar during my teen years and building a mahogany Tele about 10 years ago) this is the first time I've truly taken it seriously. This blog site is where I will attempt to document my process, including my successes and my mistakes.
