Ep1 Design/Materials | Hand Tool Only Acoustic Travel Guitar Build - A Guitar from a 4x4 FENCE POST

#travelguitar #guitardesign #acousticguitar #handtoolsonly #guitarbuilder Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonC... and Ben's home workshop. You asked and Ben will deliver...our eccentric (read insane) Luthier will be building an entire guitar out of a 4x4 Fence Post. And, not to make this project any more complicated, this will be a hand tools only build - no planer thicknesser, no belt sander...no Drills or routers! The only electronic devices allowed will be the workshop lights, the camera, a smart phone, and a Wagner Moisture Meter. https://www.wagnermeters.com/shop/ori...
