    Guitars aren't really my thing, but great skills on show there! Interesting for anyone interested in making/refinishing anything really.
    Started out with nothing. Still have most of it left.

    Love it. Shame to see the condition of the body behind the paint work, I’m told they’re making great guitars again at the moment.

    Wow with that amount of work and effort I think would it have worn me out. Really amazing craftsman.

    Thanks for that Bob.
    Gibson should hang their heads in shame at the fit and finish of some of the guitars they have made.
    A recent one (3 videos) from Jerry Rosa.

    If there ever was a video that needed an executive summary it's that one. The follow up video that covers repairing the things he damages taking the guitar apart in the first video is over an hour long too.

    I winced when the bridge support came out - you could see the soundboard cracking.
