Another option is to re-top and reset the neck on a cheap import beater..
Often as not - the necks, fretboards, and tuners are good enough. They just need a good leveling.
Replace the top with a good Spruce top. Install a bought bridge.
Then convert the neck to a bolt on. Properly set the neck and set the guitar up for a comfortable action....
And then finish it.
Now - you have gotten a taste of building a guitar without dropping a grand on kits, tools, and special jigs. You can decide if it’s for you or if it’s not.....
