I built this guitar out of a pallet I got for free. It's all White Oak other than some pine for the bracing. It was fun!

Since some of you are asking, here are some of the inexpensive tools I use for guitars. I do this for fun and I am not wealthy so I try to find the cheapest way to keep the hobby going. I hope this list shows that you can get started without spending all your money!
