Guyatone LG50 Project: 9
I’m starting to feel like I’m on the home straight now. Some real progress has been made on the “Navatone”. The neck has been fitted and glued on, the two-way truss rod fitted and the fretboard glued on, the pearloid position markers made and inlaid and last but not least fretted. And all that is condensed into this 10 minutes of video!
Hi, I make mostly mandolins and guitars, entirely by myself and by hand. Although I’m based in the Norfolk Fens, my instruments can be found all over the world. I made my first guitar when I was 14 and during the 1970s studied luthiery at the prestigious London College of Furniture. I’ve been making them ever since!
