  • I spent the past year away from RUclips focusing on another passion of mine, guitar making! I recently recorded some demos for the launch of the website and it's got me really excited to get back to making videos. I thought I'd share one with you!

      @JamesBartholomewMusic  2 года назад

      Palisander is another name for Rosewood right? I made a twin guitar to this one out of Wenge, it’s a timber with massive tonal potential but it isn’t the nicest to work with (hard, deep pores and splinters… lots of splinters!). I’d say both can make a great guitar, but you can’t go wrong with a good set of Rosewood.

    • @JamesBartholomewMusic
      @JamesBartholomewMusic  2 года назад

      Thanks man! Built this one as a pair with 001, but I'd built two guitars previously. My mentality was that they wouldn't get serial numbers/be sold until they were guitars I would buy myself 🙂

      @cannaguitars4593 2 года назад

      @@JamesBartholomewMusic Yeah, I also didn't use serial numbers for a long time because of that reason. I only wrote the date and No. of that year in the inside. I think Ken Parker does that too. Now it feels weird to give it a definite Number. Also hard to tell. I have build ~50 with a Hempstone body I think^^. But for 'collectors' it would be a big plus to own the first ever James Bartholomew guitar. So in your case I would use them right away. From what I've seen the look/sound worthy of a serial number! Cheers 🙂

      @@cannaguitars4593 This pair of guitars was the first to get numbers, this one is 002 and a twin in Wenge/Sitka is 001 🙂 I consider the previous two personal prototypes (I actually signed the previous one as #000 as I had a hunch the next would be getting numbers!). Hard to imagine getting to #50 right now... many years away! 😅
