Assemble Custom Lap Steel Guitar
Budget: $250 – $750 CAD
I will have the kit on March 20th; what I need now is a skilled builder who can turn that box of parts into a stage-ready instrument professional instrument to surprise my musician friend on his birthday
Scope of work
– Assemble and set up the guitar to a solid intermediate standard, as accurate to the kit as possible and playing beautifully
– Add some custom touches:
1. A distinctive paint job, stain or clear finish that flatters the wood. I haven’t thought of a design but something that enhances the wood and looks classy. I’m open to your creative ideas.
2. Simple yet eye-catching fretboard inlays..the kit suggests black zip ties, maybe we can think of something nicer
What I’ll provide
The complete kit (body, neck, hardware, electronics) brought to you, plus any extra materials we agree upon ahead of time.
What you’ll provide
A fully assembled, tuned, and playable lap steel “guitar”, finished to the agreed design, and a short setup sheet noting string gauges, action, and any future maintenance tips.
I’m happy to discuss design timelines, and logistics as soon as you signal interest. It is for a friend’s birthday so I know it’s short notice but I’ll have the kit Friday and the birthday is April 7th
