I second the motion re: MusicMakers kits (musikits.com). I've built their Shepherd lap harp (remarkably loud & decent tone for a small harp) and have a kit for the Git-a-long Guitar which I haven't assembled yet (needing a small guit-box to fit into a kayak & am tired of the tinny tone of the Martin Backpacker - but that's another story) Anyway, the kits are well made with minimal fussing needed to make them go together, the instructions are clear & easy, and the sound of the instruments is at least acceptable. AND they offer quite a variety of instrument kits.
