Then I got my hands on some mid level acoustic box and started learning cords and made a few songs I liked. Eventually I bought a decent Fender..  Then my table saw decided to put an end to me playing guitar. I can still play it some, but no feeling in my index finger so I can't really change cords like I used to..
I might try my hand at making a guitar someday. Quite a few guys I talk with on woodworking forums make musical instruments. Been giving serious thought to a steam box for steam bending wood..

Back in '88 i worked with a guy who accidentally cut the tip of his left index finger off (he had done this before working with me). He was so upset that he trashed all his guitars, since he couldn't play them any more. After calming down he went out and bought a left handed guitar and learned to play that way. 

He was an Yngwie Malmsteen nut.
