Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonCustomGuitars?sub_confirmation=1 and Ben's home workshop for an EPIC interactive guitar building livestream experience. If all goes according to plan Ben will scratch build a whole guitar live from raw lumber to completion while taking direction from all of you live via polls in the chat.
This will be a LONG one and if you don't have the time there will be an edited series going live on the channel soon, finally this guitar will be available to own via a raffle, a portion of the funds raised here will go to GGBO to help fund the 2022 competition. The Raffle ends 11.45pm on the 22nd of January 2022 and we will cover shipping costs (but not import taxes) to get the guitar to you wherever you are in the world.
