Kovacik Acoustic
Guitar Kit

Luthier Steven Kovacik, a licensed Martin technician, has donated this guitar kit to make a dreadnought size 14-fret acoustic guitar in mahogany and spruce from Martin parts. This is not a Martin boxed kit, but a kit made up from parts purchased at the CF Martin factory in Nazareth, PA for use in Steve’s luthery business. All of the labor that brought the parts to their current state of completion was done at CF Martin on the production floor.

All that is necessary to complete the guitar is to finish the neck and body, join the body to the bridge and set it up to play. With a few clamps and a little work space, this guitar can be completed with just a few hours of labor. Retail value of kit is $400.
