    Anybody else bought a guitar for what it looks like?

    An electrical engineer I worked with years ago rigged a cap in one of my desk drawers to blow up when I opened the drawer. Nearly shat myself when it blew.

    Here is Episode 1 of my new Luthier Video series on YouTube. Please check it out and do the Like & Subscribe thing to help me build this channel.

    @Scott Baxendale Nice video. The music comes across loud and clear, but when you are speaking the volume noticeably drops in comparison. Wishing you great success with your youtube series. 👍

    As you can see, it's an extremely narrow portion of guarding close to the neck around the soundhole. Yes. I have considered filling that area with wood filler and applying a dark wood stain to the area. I live in northern Ct (not Maine), but i get your point. I've been looking on line for...

    The German Martin Miller Band Videos

    I've been watching their videos for years. The 9 year old cover band consists of 75 or more musicians who are rotated in (song dependent) to perform. Awesome cover band! Good call @TalismanRich

    I surely wouldn't expect you to delve into or disclose "trade secrets" as to how I could easily replace the inlaid pickguard myself. As it stands right now, I also have to refinish the top, reinstall the original nut, replace the original tuners (I have new tuners), and install new frets (I have...

    I have a very old mandolin that has been in need of a new pickguard that was deep seated with the top of the odd shaped pickguard being flush with the top of the mandolin. I'll take a picture and post it tomorrow, and hopefully you will be able to advise me how to replace it. A few years ago I...

    @Old Music Guy At first glance I wasn't quite sure about that pickguard, but the more I look at it I appreciate the "sun spot (solar flare)" paint design. Pairing that pick guard and neck with a natural wood (unpainted) guitar body would be ideal. Sun spots

    Shubb standard capo is my recommendation.

    Nylon String/Guitar Question

    If push comes to shove because strings keep breaking on your guitar there's no harm in tuning a half step down and slapping on a capo.
