Exiting times!
I am starting a NEW custom build based on the 1930s Kalamazoo Model KG-11. Before I build the guitar, I am making the template and molds so that I can replicate the process with consistency. A few changes will be made from the original, though. The KG-11 has a v-shaped neck and narrow fingerboard. The custom model (yet to be named) will have a slightly wider fingerboard and c-shaped neck. Also, the KG-11 used ladder bracing and I will be going with custom x-bracing to give it a special sound. Follow each day's progress the The Full Custom photo gallery on Facebook and on Instagram @RobertBrooks1911. Stay tuned!

AuthorMy name is Robert Brooks, and I'm the guitar doctor around here. I love the fact that I can take an old guitar that others have given up on and restore it to sound even better than it did brand new. From time to time, I'll invite you to follow my process on this page. Archives
