  • This is my entry into the Great Guitar Build Off 2020 Unofficial challenge.
    In this episode I am doing a small demo (warning, I really cant play and filming yourself in a shed makes playing even harder!)
    This is a challenge being put on by Ben Crowe at Crimson Guitars in parallel to the official Great Guitar Build off.
    Visit www.greatguitarbuildoff.com to find out more about the challenge and also to vote and donate to the official entries!

    Your commentary during the build process was perhaps the best I have seen and I must have watched hundreds over the years! So well described and explained better than some well known luthiers and to the point. Not to mention that the result is stunning. Love it and you have another scriber. Look forward to more.....

    Very well done! Never thought about copper and black as a combination, but it's excellent! It's amazing the solid efforts put forth by so many talented people like yourself. And then the fitting victory by Violet the Cow. Outstanding

    Two things stand out from this video
    1. You can build a very good guitar
    2.You can play a lot better than me
    Looking forward to seeing you branch out a little in the overall design of your guitars and as you enjoy it so much I guess thats only a matter of time
    Come a long way from the building of the shed John

      @@JohnClothier Try it John. My preference for brass over copper or bronze is because you can get such a high shine on it. That's why it looks so good with black.

    Hi John, The guitar sounds fantastic and looks amazing. Well done you Sir. You get my vote just for the Pink Floyd alone. I saw them in 1974, when I was 16, in Cardiff on their Dark Side of The Moon Tour. The ticket cost me £1.50 which was weeks wages from my part time job stacking shelves at a local mini supermarket. Great series John . How about a Flying V Guitar for the net one? Take care John. Cheers, Huw
