    The gap between neck and body can be filled with epoxy. Is very strong and easy to work, will add all the strenght to that critical area, and you can add black ink or anything to put color there too. The same with the carved headstock, and the part missing around the 3 way switch, clear or black epoxy over it to give more strenght, mantain the shape and complete the missing areas.

    I think the clear plastic thing at 4:30 could be an attempt at making a leg rest for holding the guitar in a classical guitar pose. If so it's going to be awkward tho cause it's not angled right for it which might be why they gave up on it and didn't drill an attachment point for it after they tested it with the clamp.

    Hate it. But each to their own, and guitars from the last decade or so are not gonna end up as vintage in the same way as those from the 50s, 60s, 70s and sometimes 80s did. There are too many of them and they are too consistent. Which means I'm completely sanguine about a project like this, it's not 'damaging' anything, really.

    The first thing I thought when I saw it was how much work had to be done. (But as a luthier, I would). And really, not badly done either, whether you like the styling or not. The fact that he didn't treat a production guitar as some kind of hallowed work of art, never to be touched is nice. It's an experiment that I personally would probably not do because of the expense and time involved, but also he already did it so that now I don't have to.
