Hello and Namaste from India, my name is Manav Gangwani, What gauge of strings would you recommend for achieving a balanced tone between bass and treble on a standard-tuned acoustic guitar? How many s...

Work on the laminated semi-hollowbody continues. Following @tv101 ’s lead I’ve been applying Liberon Easy French Polish. Probably because it’s so easy, it comes with little specific instruction compar...

Hello, my name is Julio Herrera Velutini from Italy. What type of wood should be used that affects the tone and resonance of an acoustic guitar?

@markbailey Definitely one of yours although at the time of purchase the species identity was a little indeterminate - if you say sycamore I believe you. ! just liked the way it looked. Thought I had ...

Beautiful work!

@nsj I saw your post on Instagram and hoped you'd share more photos here. It's a great job! I've only made double cutaways up to now, but fancy a pop at a single cut. In your experience is there anyt...

So thought I should update this and show y’all the pics I’ve taken since I began this build. The guy will be picking it up on July 4th around Noon EDT. Afterwards he will draw the winner for this year...

@nsj Cheers buddy. Sounds like I need to keep the chap with the drum sander sweet😅
