hey lars im almost done building my 8 string and i took alot of inspiration from this build in particular, but really all of your builds and methods. you even gave me some advise before i started about the truss rod. when i get done with the accompanied video for my build i want to give you a shout out.
….everyone is capable in making a good guitar buy using exotic expensive woods, cnc, ( i saw robots too), woodsmiths power tools and a dedicated place for it. But only HEROES can do that with pallet woods and tools affordable to most of people. TOP.
