Check out this site:

Unofficial Warmoth - Index

Wood type: depends on the sound you are going for and how much you want to pay.

Bolt on/neck through/set neck: Again, depends on what sound/feel you are going for, but a bolt on neck will be much easier.

Are you gonna build it yourself?

Have a look here:

BuildYourGuitar.com - Guitar building books and guitar making resources

Quite a lot of info online there already but I bought the lap steel book, really simple, good advice and a good guide to have.

So what's the design?
