Welcome to Crimson Guitars (CG)HQ https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonCustomGuitars?sub_confirmation=1.
In this episode, Ben is measuring and cutting fret slots on the laminated neck. Once the inlays and logo are made on the CNC machine Ben drills the holes and glues the inlays in the fretboard. The logo waits for another day.......
This guitar is being made using a very soft wood and as such the neck is stabilised with both the usual truss rod plus carbon fibre stiffening rods.
