Great first build.
Owen Holbrook✓ Verified PurchaseNovember 8, 2023
Very happy with how it turned out. Made it my own by putting the parts and pickups i wanted on it. Most of the pre-drilled holes were perfect. Sounds great too.
Learning experience
Amazon Customer✓ Verified PurchaseNovember 7, 2023
Let me first start with the quality of the parts is better than expected. However none of the holes line up on the body with any of the other pieces.
As everyone can see, I clearly customized some things for my own aesthetic taste. What you can't see, are the things I needed to customize in order for this to fit together in a cohesive manner. (I.e. chisel an extra channel for the wires to actually fit. [if you put them under the pickup, it bulges up, if you try to put them around the pickup, it doesn't fit in the routed portion] fill and redrill holes, etc..).

For what I spent, I got exactly what I expected. A project Guitar. The intention was as someone who is already an avid woodworker, to learn how to build guitars on my own. After cleaning up the fret work, replacing the tuners, and properly channeling the nut, on top of the standard set up stuff and everything else I had to do here ; I've got a pretty good idea.

As for the sound? Honestly these pickups are much higher quality than expected; but still not fantastic by any means.

Few upgrades and you have a decent guitar here all around.

Will eventually replace pickups, nut (bought one but it was too short, like I said I'm learning), pots, and maybe the bridge. Though I'm genuinely impressed so far

Worth the money and then some in my opinion.
Build Your Dream Guitar!

Behold, the Angel! I have just assembled my BexGears Stratocaster-Style DIY Guitar, and I am pleased with both this excellent product and the seller's swift and dedicated customer support.

This DIY kit provides a versatile platform for designing your own personalized guitar! The body is a lovely auburn-red okoume wood. The neck is already finished to a smooth sheen perfect for glissando. The pickguard is a canvas white that will suit any pigment you apply to body. The customizability of the kit is liberating.

The electronic components are all connected in the pickguard assembly. Because no soldering is required, this kit is optimal for beginners who want to learn about the workings of guitar without the stress of soldering wires. The instructions are concise and include color photos. The builder is only responsible for grounding one wire to the claw, and plugging another set of wires into the input jack. This entails only trivial challenge.

Despite the ease of assembly, I encountered difficulty with my electronic system which was damaged during shipping. I am grateful to the seller for working tirelessly to assist me, responding immediately to my emails, and shipping an entire replacement pickguard assembly via priority mail so I could complete my guitar. With the new electronic components installed, the instrument works flawlessly.

Though you can replace the hardware to meet your preference, you will likely be surprised by the quality of the stock pickups. This guitar is ideal for the toan kings amogus who relentlessly pursue that classic cowboy Strat quack that one would expect from the timeless works of the legendary Ennio Morricone.

This guitar kit has prodigious quality for its low price, however; there are some issues that hinder the product from perfection. There are no pilot holes to connect the claw to the back of the body, so you must carefully create these yourself during assembly. Certain nut slots are loose which produces a slight whistle on the open B and E strings. Some users may wish to upgrade to higher-quality hardware. The included strings do not have colored ball ends so a beginner may not know which order they are strung in. The instructions are not always clear on which screws to use during assembly. Patience and improvisation will help you through most of these issues, and these also happen to be the virtues of a good guitarist.

When you purchase this DIY guitar kit, you are not just endowing your musical career with a quality instrument that you can enjoy for your entire life; you are embarking on a journey to create a beautiful work of art that is an authentic expression of who you are. One look at the customer images on this page will testify that no one will build this kit in the same way as anyone else. Through this kit, you can achieve an intimate height of personalization that cannot be attained with store-bought instruments. I would happily buy another kit from this seller in the future; perhaps an SG Style next time!
Nice kit!

The kit came well packaged and the parts for the assemblies were individually bagged. One thing I didn't notice was that one of the tuners was incorrect in that the screw tab came out the differently and didn't allow the tuners to align. I emailed them the issue and they responded right back and promised to send the correct one out the next day. I have not yet received it, but has only been a few days.
The instructions were in understandable english with clear photos and overall pretty well done. I will say they used more than one guitar for the photos and that could be confusing to some, as they use a vintage
strat routed body in one picture and a HSH style in another .
Two minor complaints - the body did not come with the hole drilled to hang it when finishing and the placement and installation of the string trees was not really covered.
Finishing the body-
There are many YouTube videos on how to finish the body, but if you are not equipped and experienced and opt to try for a factory finish beware. Between the grades of sandpaper, OSHA masks, volatile chemicals, and layers of finish to put down you can spend a lot of time and money. Different paints for different parts of the process may include vinyl sealer, primer, a sanding sealer, several coats of enamel paint or lacquer, and a couple of coats of a gloss topcoat will get you started. But wait, there's more! Next you get into the final sanding. buffing and polishing of the clearcoat for that mirror finish. If you use rattle cans for this it gets very expensive very quickly. When you total all this up you can easily double the original price of the guitar kit. But, if you are patient and meticulous, you will have a guitar finish you can really be proud of.
When it is complete I will probably update with comment on the sound and play-ability.
Buy that kit to have fun and learn, not to save $$
Vincent Lasfargues✓ Verified PurchaseOctober 23, 2023
My 1st kit, and 1st Stratocaster. Do not buy that to save $$. The provided electronics, tuners and strings are not rock-bottom dirt-cheap quality, but it is far from being satisfactory.
If you want to get the best bang for your bucks, get a Yamaha Pacifica. It is a wonderful instrument for the $$, and if you do not like it, you can resell it and get most of your money back.

However, if you want to have fun and learn, that kit is great. You will need tools, sandpaper, paint, wood sealant and wood stain, and some time and energy. The result will be OK, not great.

The following applies to the kit I have received:
All the screw holes are pre-drilled close enough (to me) to where they need to be
The neck and body fit is very loose with a very visible gap, so you will need your woodworker skills here
The neck required frets adjustments, a few were not installed deep enough
The frets were well trimmed, and no work was needed here like with cheap Rogue Electric guitars (paid my Rogue $69)
The neck was straight and not twisted, and the neck wood looks good and is smooth. It required a significant amount of fine sanding to remove the coat and get the wood stain to take.
The body was flawless, it did not require any other prep than a fine sanding before I started to paint.
Assembly is very easy, I did not need instructions, but they were provided, and there are good youtube videos on this topic.
The tuners are OK, they work and the guitar stays relatively well tuned in.
Installing the plate with the electronics was done without carving away more wood from the body, which was cleanly carved (they use a router and templates, the templates were not worn out)
One easy soldering was required
I did not use the provided string, I went direct with better quality light gauge electric guitar strings.
A whammy bar is provided, but the guitar does not keep its tuning so well if you use it ...
The switch works great, and I had to lightly adjust the height of the pickups.
I was able to set a low easy-to-play action without much buzzing. There are videos for that on youtube. Look for "GCH Guitar Academy", he is awesome. This action preparation and setup is the most important step, at least to me.

Did I have fun working on it? Yes!
Do I like the end result? Not really, because I have a better Yamaha Pacifica, so there is no urge feeling for me to grab this guitar.
It does a good job as a beginner guitar, and I will gift that guitar to a friend who wants to start playing. The action makes it very playable. The sound is not really recordable.

Can it be improved? Yes but, imho, it is not making any financial sense to do so.
