Welcome to Crimson Guitars HQ ru-vid.com... and Ben's new studio set-up. In this series, Ben is building a custom guitar for a very special client using 42 K-year-old swamp Kauri from New Zealand (it took 4 years to get the authorisation to send this wood to the UK).
In this episode, Ben is preparing the Kauri for, potentially, more than one guitar; and talking about the inspiration for this build - the Fender Acoustasonic Player Telecaster.
