Olive Wood should make a beautiful guitar neck, right? | Build Ep.1

Описание: Welcome to my olive wood project to build a beautiful guitar neck. In my last video is discussed using olive wood for guitar building and how I'd like to make an olive wood fretboard and neck for one of my original design guitars. This video is about building that neck and my thought on olive wood for use in building guitars. This is the first video in a series where I will be building an original design Les Paul style single cutaway guitar from scratch. The next episode will be building a guitar body.

What influences me in my guitar building?
I love building guitars and the community that has grown around luthiery. I like to build reimagined versions of classic guitars and give them my own twist. So classics from Fender Guitars and Gibson Guitars tend to be my main inspiration. From the community, I hope to create content similar to Crimson Guitars, BIGDGUITARS and Guns and Guitars. I have found their content invaluable over the years.

I love building guitars! Join me as I build original design electric guitars and share my guitar building tips and tricks. On this channel you will get full guitar building series and detailed 'How To' videos describing the step by step process for some of the trickiest parts of building guitars.

My guitar builds cover everything from designing, wood choices, shaping guitar necks & bodies, installing truss rods, neck carving, guitar fretting, guitar binding, installing guitar pickups & electronics, guitar set ups, dyeing and colouring, finishing & polishing guitars.

I build original and reimagined versions of classic guitars. Everything I make is for sale and I also like to make videos of my guitar builds to show customers how their instruments are made. Its also a great way of making friends within the guitar building community! I've also entered the Great Guitar build off for 2021 & 2022 as a bit of fun and to help share what I've learned.
