These look really nice! Can you tell me if these are made in the U.S. or do you guys outsource?

@1stinkywizzleteets - Thanks so much for your compliment. The design and manufacturing are done in our facility in North Carolina! Paul Vogt designed the kits, as well as designed and built the 3-axis CNC machine, and all the jigs used to manufacture the kits. All our kits start out as high-quality rough cut lumber. Because we manufacture the kits ourselves, we can also provide custom wood combinations - just contact us to find out more.

Awesome Video, but isn't that guitar almost the exact specs of a PRS custom 24?

[pvxguitars]

Not at all. The neck geometry is different, using Gibson scale. The body and headstock shapes while similar, are different as well. The construction is a neck-through design, with a 9 1/2 inch tenon.

@pvxguitars How much would the kit cost? It looks so close to the PRS but has the scale of a gibson? Wow that is sexy.

Very helpful lessons, next level type stuff. I especially like listening to someone talk who does not say uhmm or uhhh. This is going to help me on my 5th build. That neck looked wonderful BTW.
