I made a classical guitar - started it in 1976 and finished it in 2005. We moved house, new jobs and two children got in the way. It has Swiss Pine front, Brazilian rosewood back & sides (it was legal to buy it then) , with a bubinga wood neck with a sandwich of maple and rosewood down the middle. It sounds Ok - the trouble is that until it is finished you have no idea how it will sound. A few years ago I made a clavichord for swmbo - from a kit - but the kit comprised of a book, plans and wood. That took me a couple of years to build - but again I am very pleased with the sound.I tend not to rush things!
