The MST Style Short Scale DIY Guitar Kit is for shorter reach, faster fingers, or serious commitment to garage rock. Alder body, two single coils, and the same compact-scale charm that turned vintage student guitars into beloved cult instruments.

Bolt-on neck with frets and dual-action truss rod, predrilled and routed, pre-sanded, two single-coil pickups, two volumes, two tones. Short scale means lower string tension, easier bends, and a jangle that just doesn't happen on a full-scale guitar. Great for travel, kids, or guitarists who like a different feel under the fingers.

Designed and shipped from the USA. Every kit is backed — defective parts replaced free, no return needed. Build your own guitar that defies the "bigger is better" rule and gets surprisingly loud doing it. There's a reason indie kids hoard these.

  • Predrilled and routed body
  • Neck with frets and dual-action truss rod installed
  • Bridge and turning hardware
  • Pickups, Pots, and Wiring Components
  • All wood parts are pre-sanded, ready for your final sanding and a finish to be applied.
  • Some bodies and/or necks may have binding in place
