Acoustic Electric Hollow Body Kits

About

Our acoustic-electric guitar kits bridge the gap between acoustic warmth and electric versatility. Each kit has a hollow body with a single round sound hole and a solid wood block under the bridge for support, paired with a piezo pickup and an onboard 4-band EQ. Plug in for amplified performance or play unplugged for practice and songwriting. What Makes These Kits Different from Solid Body Kits? The body is a hollow box with one continuous chamber inside, so it produces natural acoustic resonance you can hear without an amplifier. The wood block sits under the bridge to carry string tension and keep the top stable. It does not divide the chamber, which is what separates a hollow body from a semi-hollow. The result is a guitar that sounds warm and airy unplugged and still gives you a clean amplified signal through the piezo. Who Are Acoustic-Electric Kits For? Fingerpickers, singer-songwriters, and jazz players who want acoustic character with the option to amplify. These kits are also popular with builders who want to explore hollow body construction. The build process teaches you about sound hole placement, internal support, and how air volume inside the body shapes tone. What to Expect from the Build Assembly follows the same process as our electric kits: attach the neck, install hardware, connect the electronics, and finish the wood. No soldering is required. The main difference is care around the sound hole area during finishing. Tape off the sound hole before applying any finish to keep the interior clean.
