Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonCustomGuitars?sub_confirmation=1 and welcome to Crimson Guitars http://www.crimsonguitars.com and an in-depth tutorial series from Luthier Ben Crowe.
This seven-part series will follow the re-fret and repair of Stereophonics' Kelly Jones' favourite Gibson SG. Being a fan, Ben was excited to not only carry out this work but also to share it with you.
