I've known a few people who built kit guitars. Great components, hard to keep in tune.
Maybe that's in one of the videos...

It's easy to build one
It's not easy to build one well. Components tend to be gash - horrid plastic nut, crap machine heads etc.
The really hard bits are doing a good finish if you aren't an experienced spray painter and doing a really good set up. A well set-up guitar with decent machine heads and a reasonable bridge will stay in tune. I've done one before and it played well with a little help on set up from a semi-pro guitarist mate. The finish was shiiite.
THe world of guitars is as full of voodoo bollocks as hifi.
