This kit contains everything you need to build a complete, playable guitar, except your choice of finish.  

Before you buy

These are raw, unfinished kits from a production factory, not flat-pack furniture. Expect to sand, fill and finish your instrument yourself, and expect the occasional scratch, dent or glue spot to deal with along the way. That is the craft, and it is why the result is worth playing.

Do a mock build before you sand or paint anything. We cannot accept returns on kits that have been part-assembled, painted or stained.

New to building? Start with an ST or TL kit, where much of the wiring is already done at the factory. We would not recommend a hollow body for a first build.

Build support

You are not on your own once the box arrives. Every kit is backed by our complete instruction manual, a quick start guide, wiring diagrams for more than fifty different kits, and step-by-step videos covering finishing, soldering, hardware, assembly and setup.

My 8 year old son Eben and I built one of these excellent kits to his specifications. He picked it straight out from the PBG line-up - it's the perfect guitar for a hard-core little bloke. The body was nicely routed, the neck was straight and the assembly a breeze. With Entwistle pickups it sounds mean - this bad boy rocks - and the larger body gives some very ice sustain. All in all it's a metal beast and he loves it! Highly Recommended.
