@darrenking There are some interesting insights into the insides of Semi Acoustic designs in that video. I also found it interesting that they shape what ultimately become several pairs of sides at on...

My local Aldi has a hand held car buffers in their man aisle just now, and wondering if I should invest in one. @darrenking I would depend on whether it’s a rotary or orbital. Cheap car buffers are n...

And at least they find out if the headstock is going to fall off. And the answer is ....yes, it is going to fall off! 🤣 🤣

He used to use the same polishing system as I still do (a hand held car buffer and liquid compounds). It works well but obviously but it can be a bit scary sometimes when the hand held machine (two ha...

Hmmmmm ... looks like you're going to be 7-and-a-bit hrs away. Which is co-incidental, because I'm 7-and-a-bit hrs away too. 😉 Yup, it's day's drive to get there, and a day's drive to get ...

Looking good @steveadams I haven’t done the acoustic course yet but I have to admit it does look very interesting. Have fun and keep the pictures coming. 👍

I guess that being responsible for a 335, that has taken the factory two weeks to put together, flying across the workshop and landingon a concrete floor is something that that could come up at their ...

Hi Boo, That's good to know and I can almost hear your excitement level rising at the prospect of having a go! Here is a link that Mark sent me of the 335 Gibson factory. When you get to the bit where...

@darrenking I was talking to a bloke on Instagram messaging last night about his guitar paintwork and how he buffs it. He has the full StewMac buffing machine and uses their compounds to polish the 2K...

Well it definitely looks like great work. I dig the front. I understand what you were doing on the back. It’s good to branch out and just go wild with that stuff, it makes you better. @mattbeels Yea...

I'm looking forward to what you come up with next as your hone your already impressive skills. @jonhodgson Thanks man. Yeah, I’ll definitely be toning things down a bit. It will still be glittery, ju...
