Episode 2 of 7 - How To Build an Exotic Set Neck Guitar - The Silky Oak Build

Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonC... and welcome to the second of 7 episodes in How to Build an Exotic Set Neck Guitar. Ben has been holding on to this beautiful piece of (what he was told) Silky Oak or Sheoak; just waiting for the inspiration to begin a build. So when April Wilkerson and Matt Cremona took part in a week-long guitar building experience in May 2019, Ben couldn't resist the temptation to join in. As well as all the fun and antics that April and Matt brought to our brand new teaching facilities, April also introduced Ben to the wonders of ISOtunes hearing protection, Bluetooth earbuds. Gone are the days when Ben would struggle to listen to his favourite podcast of the month through the tinny speakers of his phone. Now, not only is he protecting his hearing, but he will also never miss another word or refrain because of machine noise. Bonus - he is no longer annoying this editor who spends way too much time fixing the audio as it is..... Thank you to ISOtunes for partnering with us for this project. In this episode, Ben is working mainly on creating a beautiful multi-laminate through body neck with this truly gorgeous wood.
