Here’s what sets the StewMac Offset Hardtail Electric Guitar Kit apart:

The offset guitar is renowned for its playability and versatility. This kit features a shorter 24-9/16′ Gibson scale neck that enhances expressiveness, making bending and vibrato easier than ever. The upgraded pickups—a Strat-style single coil in the neck and a full-sized humbucker in the bridge—provide you with a rich tonal palette, allowing you to switch between defined bass and robust treble with ease.

Additionally, the kit includes a reliable 6-saddle hardtail bridge that offers excellent sustain and tuning stability. With a simple 3-way toggle switch, you can easily navigate between pickup settings without the hassle of complex controls.

For first-time builders, fret not! You don’t need a fully equipped workshop to successfully assemble this guitar. Most likely, you already have the basic tools needed at home. We’ve ensured that the neck is already fretted and matched to the body for a seamless connection, while the routing and drilling are precise. This means you can dive straight into the finishing touches and truly personalize your guitar.
