So the custom guitar build is almost finished! Since the last post I've glued the neck on, made a bridge, and put on the tuning gears. I will let it sit under tension for a day or two then finish it off with a pickguard and LR Baggs pickup. I'm still calling this guitar the custom build so if you have a good name for this guitar based on the Kalamazoo KG-11 leave it in the comments section and if I like it, we will call it that name. I've already got the wood for the next custom. That one will be rosewood back and sides, spruce top, and red cedar braces. This guitar sounds amazing, and I made a short clip of it. Keep in mind that my musical abilities are suffering right now as I have a torn muscle in my left shoulder making it hard to hold my fretting hand up on the neck. Once this guitar is completely finished, I will put up a better video going over all of the things this awesome guitar has going on.

A custom guitar like this can rake you a lot of money. I also dabble in the design process of guitars. Well, it is not a career that most people think can make a great amount of money from, but I am really enjoying it. I think that people underestimate me because of my profession, and I am pretty much okay with that. I am better when there are no pressure on my shoulders, that is why I thrive in this situation.

Spot on with this write-up, I truly think this website needs much more consideration. I’ll probably be again to read much more, thanks for that info.

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
