I think there is someone building a guitar from scratch in the blog section of the GMC web site. Clicky
There are kits available to assemble your own guitar Clicky. Not sure about the quality but its a cheap way of having a new guitar. I wish you all the success in your build an look forward to seeing and hearing the finished article.

ah good point Owen, and i cant find a Les Paul body that isnt bolt on, or suited for 7 Strings anywhere :|
I could buy a normal LP body and then use some dowel or magic (My step dads the carpenter, he'd know) to fix it/wedge it in place I think im going to get this neck, since im looking for 24 frets http://www.warmoth.com/guitar/necks/necks....warmoth_7string If not from Warmoth, then the nearest/cheapest place Just stuck looking for a body now :| -------------------- |
