Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonCustomGuitars?sub_confirmation=1 and Ben’s home workshop where he is attempting the UnCut Kit Guitar Challenge. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLp6z5fUMeeAbV0tP1nW1PB-AMMlIhogQU. This is the Fourth Episode - of a three-part series??
To celebrate reaching 250,000 subscribers earlier this year, we at Crimson Guitars decided to challenge Ben to build a kit guitar in 250 minutes! This challenge was put on hold for the Great Guitar Build Off 2020, so fresh off the last kit challenge, Ben is eager to tackle the next one.
