Welcome to Crimson Guitars https://www.youtube.com/user/CrimsonCustomGuitars?sub_confirmation=1
We are revisiting the 9 Hour Build, where Ben Crowe, our Master Luthier, challenged himself,
( he just won't learn!) to build a guitar in just 9 hours, over one day, with no breaks.
The original series was filmed and edited as close to live as possible which made for rather boring viewing, this edit, we hope, will prove to be both entertaining and educational.
In this episode, Ben begins with the neck, cuts it out, routs for the truss rod, and cuts the fret slots.
