Guitar in the Wild- Building an Acoustic Guitar in Nature
Kicking off one of two series for this Season.. We are going to build an acoustic guitar while exploring a bit of Nature. each episode will explore the principles of acoustic guitar building, as well as exploring nature itself.
This promises to be my most challenging build yet.

I think that last year you mentioned something about having all sorts of different plans and ideas about guitar building I think we're seeing the fruits of all that planning and seeding 😊 Keep at it our philosopher

Philosopher..Ha! Thanks man. I'm working on it..I hope you like some of the stuff coming up. It's all over the place lol
I was thinking where to start, but of course I know where to start...37 seconds in when you mention ukulele! You have no idea how much delight that brought me 😅 And the whole video just delivers of course - sooo excellent, funny, thoughtful. Gill Bates was a serious laugh out loud moment. Get this...I am watching your video while traveling for once! In the birthplace of espresso for a nice synchronicity. Speaking of which, I had the best cappuccino of my life yesterday for less than 2 bucks in Milan, where if anyplace, coffee should cost three times more, haha! Also, back to your video, the addition of wenge wood...of course! Ok, I'm saving up my coffee money for a uke in the future 😁 Bravo!

lol, I thought that would perk your ears. And you're in Italy! How cool, it's so beautiful there.. soak it up and have all the espresso you can handle. There's an uke in your future regardless. Now whether it's a good one is another question lol. Wish me luck on it Have a great time and safe travels. So weird how we inverted.. I'm stationed home for a bit.
Haha, gill bates got me. Watch out for the modified mosquitos as well. This should be interesting…:

Ha, I'd only succeed at losing a thumb if I tried that. Thanks!
les stroud meets luthiery? sign me up! Looking forward to seeing how to build an acoustic, wonder how chippy that torrefied spruce is. My experience with roasted woods is its best not to look at them or youll get a splinter.

Ooof, thanks for the heads up on that. I always seem to attract splintery woods.
Love the idea. I am an avid outdoorsman if you have any questions let me know. A french press with some quality french roast is a great way to start your day!

Oh I have questions all right.. I'll be taking you up on that. Like: bear spray or elephant gun? lol I foolishly thought I'd get away with instant. I'll have to make room in the pack for a french press.

Bear spray is fine and leaves more room for alcohol! You can get a metal french press for $30-$40.
