I make custom boutique guitars, into finance , into bitcoin, and I Love me a good conspiracy theory.
Just a little fretwork and assembly left and this beauty is ready for prime time. * * * #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #guitarmaking #guitarporn
A little build footage in the latest work in progress. #luthier #guitar #woodworking #woodporn #guitarporn #workshop
First coat of oil on this new design, gotta live the way that oil makes it pop. Unfortunately I didn’t do the best job sanding off glue where I filled gaps in the Burl layer, so I got a bit more sanding and re-coat to do. * * * #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #guitarmaking #guitarporn #woodporn image
Ready for some hand shaping and finesse, gonna look epic with a coat of oil on it. What ya’ll think of the new design? #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #customguitar #guitarporn image
New design: blast off! 🚀 this top is gonna be a stunner. #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilder #woodworking #cnc
Batching out some necks, this black limba is a neat look. I may have to use it more! #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #cnc #woodworking
Day 8 of past builds , regrettably I never got great photos of this acoustic, but it was a stunner. #luthier #guitar #custom #guitarbuilding #woodworking
Day 7 of past builds. This is copy of Dave Navorro’s original Ibanez gold top I was commissioned to build, obviously it had my headstock and a Floyd rose original instead of a Ibanez locking term. #guitarporn #guitar #guitarbuilding #luthier #goldtop #woodworking image
Day 6 of past builds. This one is one of my favorites with respect to color scheme , it’s very much inspired by the 60’s. #guitarporn #guitar #luthier #guitarbuilding #customfinish #custom #woodworking image
Man, I’m bad at this. day 5! Still one of my primary workhorses , a ziricote top and ebony fretboard with custom wood markers. This one also features my kill switch concept, with an on-off switch in parallel with a on-off button. If the switch is off, the button turns the guitar on, if the switch is on, the button turns the guitar off. #luthier #guitar #guitarporn #woodworking #hss #singlecut image
Day 4 of my history in guitar building, this one is a close copy of a PRS McCarty for learning sakes, I do not retail any copies. #luthier #guitar #custom #guitarporn image
Day 3 of past builds, sorry I’ve been absent a couple days, I’ll try to be better! This one was for a Nepalese friend , so the inlays and color scheme reflect Nepal. #guitar #luthier #guitarbuilding #guitarporn #tstyleguitar #singlecut image
Day 2 of past builds. The Ironman. I used a gold to red shifter paint and airbrushed the iron man. #luthier #guitar #ironman #custom #art #guitarporn image
I was asked recently what are my favorite builds, to be honest I lost track of some of them, and looking back I’m more impressed now than I built them, because I’m now looking at them with fresh eyes, without the scrutiny of the mistakes I made. So I’m gonna post 1 a day for a bit. Starting with the oldest in my camera roll. image
