I make custom boutique guitars, into finance , into bitcoin, and I Love me a good conspiracy theory.
Playing around with a new pickup concept. Stay tuned! #guitar #luthier #bitcoin #endthefed #custom
This one is almost ready for prime time, just a little finish repair on the headstock then assembly! #bitcoin #hodl #guitar #guitarbuilding #luthier
I finally got around to taking some photos of this guitar, it was an exercise in efficiency, the first guitar I used a hard wax finish on, and the first design without an angled headstock. I’m keeping this one for myself as I don’t yet have a nice lightweight stage guitar, and there are a few minor Imperfections. But I’m happy to build another for the right buyer. Bitcoin accepted! Bitcoin accepted! Made in USA! #luthier #guitar #custom #guitarbuilding #buywithbitcoin
This is a prototype electric-acoustic hybrid, geared more for performance where comfort matters a little more than studio quality sound. I wanted to create a model that sounded better unplugged than most of the others available on the market, I have yet to test it against others in it’s class, but it does sound better than my Martin backpacker , so that’s a win. Plugged in I still have work to do, and may design my own circuit board. Stay tuned. #guitar #luthier #guitarbuilding #guitarporn #custom image
4 coats of 2k clear. Probably gonna do a couple more to make damn sure I don’t burn through the finish and into that artwork. #luthier #guitar #bitcoin #bitcoinart #guitarbuilding #guitarmaking
First coat of oil, lookin’ sweet! #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #guitarmaking #custom #handmade
My take on the thin line acoustic electric hybrid. I think I improved on the design of this because everyone else attaches the controls to the top, I floated the top above the controls. #luthier #guitar #guitarmaking #diy #custom #acoustisonic
Little build footage on the bitcoin guitar neck. #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #bitcoin #hodl #bitcoinart #woodworking
Starting the finish work on the bitcoin guitar, lovin’ that fretboard! * * * #luthier #bitcoin #bitcoinart #guitar #hodl #guitarbuilder #custom
This is almost done, a couple small imperfections to fix, like a couple of the copper bits got ripped out by the router when doing the dots, but otherwise, lookin’ pretty sweet! Gonna be a real interesting piece. #luthier #guitar #bitcoin #hodl #guitarbuilding #diy #bitcoinart #inlay
This might be a hit here on #nostr . This is a collab #bitcoin guitar, the pen work was done by my friend Jake Allen, whose art has been featured in bitcoin magazine. We’re far from done, but the vision is taking shape. #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #graphicart
Another build in the books! #guitar #luthier #guitarbuilding #customguitar #guitarporn
I’m working on an acoustic electric hybrid in the same vein as the fender acoustisonic, mine has a focus on more top movement. #guitar #guitarmaking #guitarbuilding #luthier image
Started assembly on this honey burst on maple Burl. I’m kind of obsessed with the oil finish at the moment. #luthier #guitarmaking #guitarbuilding #guitar #woodporn #guitarporn
All oiled up , ready for Coat #2 #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #lutherie #acousticguitar #customguitar #bitcoin
Always my favorite part revealing the natural beauty with a 1st cost of finish. Love the oil look! #luthier #guitar #guitargear #guitarmaking #woodworking
A fresh coat shellac on the soundboard after bridge placement, I’m planning on using osmo poly x as the finish here for a real raw natural feel, but as it’s somewhat a penetrating oil I’m sealing the top with shellac to keep from dampening the tone. With any luck I’ll be stringing this up next week. * * * #luthier #guitar #stewmac #guitarbuilding #finishing
Finally got a result on this arm bevel that I am happy with , you really have to pay attention on the reveal edges that they are nice and sharp before glueing your veneer. #guitar #luthier #guitarporn #stewmac #diy
