Tygrys, I hope you'll see this as friendly advice rather than a hard sell!
 You don't need a book on how to build a wooden guitar, which is what almost all guitar building books are about. For better or worse, you're building a CF guitar. So what you need is information on how to design a guitar from the structural and acoustical point of view. As far as I know, there is only one publication that covers these aspects of guitar design in any cogent, technically correct way. What's more, it even covers designing and building using composite (wood/CF) braces. What I mean by "design" is how to size components of various material properties to end up with an instrument that sounds like a great guitar. Here's what a few other people thought: Link 1 Link 2

Tygrys. just to add to what Trevor said as well as linked to. I think the Gore/Gilet build and design books are the only guitar books that will be of any help to you on your project. You may buy cheaper books but not much use buying cheap if it does not help you.
The price may seem high to you but these book are a bargain for the serious guitar builder.

My idea was as far i know fibre materials i dont really know the guitar (i know basics and how to play). So by better knowing the wooden guitar together with knowledge of CF i would have solid bases for my project. But i agree with you and i will get this book and readed it. Thank you.

Make up a deflection jig, measure points on a real guitar top, lay up a top, attach it to sides (does not have to be CF or lay up the top and sides together). Then do the same deflection test and then lay up some braces on the underside of the top. If you do not have enough stiffness add another layer, went too much trim it off. You are going to have to make at least one prototype anyway, probably a number of test pieces or guitars to get it right.
