I would do it much like the Gibson CS-356 is made. The whole semi-hollow body (hollow wings, center block, electronics routing and all) is all carved from one solid piece of mahogany and a bookmatched, AAAA maple top is slapped on.

This is how all the PRS hollowbodies are made, too.

I hope you like buying new router bits!

alright then all you guys start up these threads when you buy your first guitars, i'm convinced its time for me to start

should i get a cheapo Taiwanese ripoff one or a decent sturdy one (what brand/make/model) {i am struggling through school with minimum funds}

im assuming that getting a reallly cheap amp is comon for begining?

Actually, a drill press should be used to remove the vast majority of the wood, and you'd only need different router bits for fitting into the different crevices

It doesn't really matter what you buy, prepare for years of frustration

So it is like dating?

pentaen, what kinds are you looking at? I am sure the people here know some good cheap guitars, cheap amps aren't as likely though. I like my 15 watt Behringer and all, but it can't even get the matchbox open to light the match to light the candle it dreams of holding to the Marshall I have used.
