I guess www.warmoth.com or www.mightymite.com but if you want to be proud of your own guitar, isn't a Fender forum the wrong place? I think it's cool and all. I still have a bass body I cut in HS woodshop. Made out of walnut, not sure how good that would be. Hey, never know. Good luck with making your own.

All four places suggested is where I would go. I have purchased from all except MightyMite before.

Zod, this one looks like another Q&V.

As for rough wood to make your own body, there should be a decent specialty lumber shop in your area. I live in Southern California so, I generally make the trip to Austin Hardwoods in Santa Ana.
