Homeskoolin’ Super Bonus “Passion”
This one is pretty inside friends….
it could be considered long and boring for some, i totally get that.
This one is actually aimed at those of you out there who REALLY wanna know the inside shit on how that last little one percentile of top tier professional guitar set up and guitar physics REALLY works.
Did you ever notice that any time you see a person doing anything at the highest level it could ever possibly be done at, there is one common denominator you will find every time…..PASSION…..
I mean TRUE passion and a deep love of the craft.
There is also deep respect for doing things the RIGHT way.
Greg Voros, head of the repair department at Gruhn Guitars in Nashville…the boy is a true artist, and a dear dear friend of your drunk old uncle….i cannot tell you how much i respect this dude…this video should give you a real good idea why.
Greg is joined about halfway through this video by Lin Crowson….another Gruhns employee who has freakish expert level knowledge of authenticating and repairing old guitars.
Hope you enjoy folks.

He doesn’t need pedals
He’s so passionate, that’s the guy you want no matter what trade it may be 🤙🏼

Too bad his progeny has ruined his vision of excellence with woke DEI agenda. Most Disney movies are a no for me.
One of the coolest things you've done for your audience. Thank you!
Loved the "intonation test chords" = SOLID GOLD!!!
Before I moved to Nashville I came down for the NAMM show in 2014 or 15 and stopped by Gruhn. I got talking with one of the folks there about being interested in guitar repair and it turned out to be Greg. He invited me and my friend up to the workshop, gave us a tour of the place and very graciously answered all of our super guitar-nerd questions about the different projects going on. Nicest dude in the world and one hell of a guitar repair artist.
Oh man, as soon as Greg starts intonating the Tele, I know that moment of dread: when the high E is off but the B is right, and you have to decide how wrong they'll be together
This is priceless, especially for me as a Tele guy!! Another great example what makes HS stand out: no marketing BS and simply incredible informative content. Thank you Tom and Greg!
Master luthiers are essential to the craft. This was so cool 😎 to watch. Thanks Tom for letting us in.
Love this... will be watching this over and over...Thank You !!!!

One of my favorite vids you have posted, what an insight

Mind blowing. What a way to start the weekend! I was riveted. A million thanks to Greg for sharing so generously, and to dear Uncle Larry for taking us on this ride!
This is one of the best and most informative videos I’ve ever seen. THANK YOU for sharing this with us.
Priceless! So many nuggets of valuable information. Thank you guys and greetings from Finland.
Simply enlightening! Love this! Thank you Tom for sharing this birds eye view of a master. I for one can’t get enough of this. Please keep these kinds of behind the scenes videos coming. ✌️❤️
This was great! Thanks for posting a nice long geek-out Tom! Seems like you’ve been grabbing some real beauties lately. Looking forward to seeing the new custom in action.
Dude, love these too. Uncle Larry is the content master that is humble and never realizes how awesome.

This channel has been quite a ride. The builder in me rates this vid as one of my favorites. Thanks for everything Tom!
That is an awesome set up! Thanks for posting this!
I love this nerdy shit Larry! thanks bud - so long as it's cut with your signature taste maker playing and knowledge as usual keep it up =)
Really enjoyed this one, thx for sharing! And that part with the chords you use to check intonation is gold. Some of those I use but some that are new to me..greatly appreciated this episode.
THANK YOU for sharing this. Finding anyone, no matter what their craft is, that go after this level of detail and shares their passion...is a GIFT!!!
More like this! Great idea! I've finally been learning to work on some of my guitars... so those figures he throws out are priceless. Thanks Tom
aww man ! really enjoyed that, glad to see there's true tradesmen still working, cheers for posting Tom
Thanks for the insight Tom, super stoked, some of us really find this stuff interesting!
Thanks for sharing that Unc..went down the Greg Voros youtube rabbit hole after the refret video a few months ago , it is great to see a true pro , who is so passionate and driven by his craft sharing his knowledge. Thanks to both of you for that.
Hey, Tom. I’ve been binge watching all the past episodes so that I can internalize all your lessons and (my favorite) your philosophy. I even bought a Peterson strobe tuner because I saw yours. I finally got the intonation right on my damn strat. I feel like I’m hearing this thing for the first time. Thanks for all these amazing videos, my friend. 🤘🏻
Solid gold! Thanks a lot, both of you!
Absolute super bonus! This is NEVER boring. Thanks for the inside, UL!!!
Thanks so much for this. It’s always a joy to watch somebody not just at the top of their game but the top of *the* game.
Always enjoyable to see a master like this and yourself using skills that have taken years to acquire. Thanks for sharing this artisans work. It just shows that a setup is everything.
Oh man! Thanks Tom, this was f@in brilliant!
Yup... nice, thanks for making the effort to record this and posting.. cheers.
This dude is amazing. All sorts of wizdom here. My eye kept going back to that CASH poster I have seen a hundred times, but it never fails to make me smile. Great stuff!!
BEAUTIFUL video, thank you for sharing the dream you live in! Its amazing for us to see you all at work, what a wonderful part of this new age
This was amazing! Thank you guys!
Wow! What a privilege! Thank you so much Tom and Greg. 😎
That was AWESOME. You gotta respect a man that respects a good fret dressing! 🤘
This was freakin' Great! Thanks for the hang!
As well as being really really enjoyable and interesting - I'd learned something valuable by the second minute - there's just that joy of seeing real expertise because you know how hard-earned it is. Thanks. Awesome channel.
Tom, this is great. I have a Tele I can never get the set up right on, so always love learning from the best, and for free. Cheers!!!
I LOVED this video. Thanks for shining a light on this brilliance. Every time Jon Mouradian works on my guitars I watch in wonder as he transforms them. The passion is palpable.
What a blessing to have in your backyard!! Dig the passion! Waiting for the “evil doctor” laugh…Bwhaaahaaa!! Lol! What a cool hang…thanks for sharing.
Great video Uncle Larry! Some awesome pearls in this!
Love that Cash poster! Enjoyed the video...nothing like a good setup to make the day!
That thing sounds sweet acouticly! Thanks you guys for sharing this set up.
This is fantastic. More videos like this please. I learned a lot!
Love the technical stuff. Still trying to figure this set up stuff out but this really helps.
Love seeing how a guy like Greg goes about it. Love the bit of confirmation…I do a lot of the same things and it’s really good to know I’m not a COMPLETE idiot!
This is a very interesting episode, I really enjoyed it! Greg is clearly passionate about what he does, and that to me is the mark of a lucky man! ...As are you! Thank you Tom, for these pearls. God bless you.
Thanks for this great look inside the workspace of such an artist. For me it's quite a revelation because I'm so nervous about working on my guitars and screwing something up!! It's great to see such a pro at work!
So important! He definitely cares about what he's doing. Great stuff, thanks
Effin’ A Uncle Larry! This is some top level shit. Thanks so much for sharing all of this knowledge. Very much appreciated. 🤘🏼🎸
That dude is a feckin warlock! I could geek out on this all day. Thanks, Tommy!
Amazing ... really lifting the curtain and showing a light on these talented people. Passion for real.
Great lessons gentlemen. Thank you for sharing.
You’re one of the good ones Tom Bukovac. Best video on the KZreads! Thanks for posting.
Fascinating!! Thanks for sharing.
Awesome stuff uncle! Nice to know the right people that know how to make stuff happen! Thanks! God Bless!
This is priceless. This Guy’s passion for his art is incredible! Hats off to this guitar repair God. Years ago I bought a guitar from Gruhn’s the set up was incredible. I couldn’t put it down. The action was so spot on.
Awesome/ Might be the most valuable video I have ever seen on tech. It brought the geek out of me. I'm bringing all my guitars to Greg.
Best video I’ve seen for ages. Top shelf information. 🎯
Thanks for taking us places that no one even dares... or even thinks of, for that matter. This is what makes your personal gift to us so invaluable! Thanks for letting us in - I know my world is better because of it.
Dude, I love "inside the luthier's workshop" videos! So fascinating
Seeing a master at work is such a joy. Those 45 minutes flew right by.
That was awesome!. Thanks Uncle Larry.
I know this channel isn't based on gear but man I love this. My work is music, but researching and messing around with guitars is my hobby. Great to see a setup done on some vintage gear! Thanks again Tommy!
I finished load out after a gig around 1:45am but saw that Little Tommy had posted something new. Watched the entire thing. Dude is next level steeping his homemade hide glue recipe! Love it and pls keep it coming!
Fascinating! I enjoyed this video beyond belief. I’ve had the pleasure of having a great luthier do the setups on my guitars at Lays Guitar Shop here in Akron, Ohio. Nothing beats the feel and sound of a well setup guitar. I love these “peek behind the curtain” videos. Keep the great content coming Uncle Larry! Much love and respect.
This is absolutely brilliant!
totally love this...made me appreciate my H13 even more...and the extraordinary craftsmanship of my longtime friend, Michael Stevens (founder of the Fender Custom Shop)...fantastic to see young guys like Greg carrying on and developing the art...thanks.
Love it, love it, love it Uncle Larry! I have a dear luthier friend who got his start decades ago at Gruhn's. Its great to see the younger generation masters at work. Thanks so much for watching some of the secret sauce being brewed up.
Another perfect example of why we love Tom’s videos. Just pure, real-life authenticity. The many pro tips and setup secrets this fellow shares as he works on Tom’s guitars are priceless. Thank you both for this great video.
This is a master class in guitar setup, especially 7.25 radius guitars. Thank you so much!
I’ve been to Gruhn’s met George once. It make total sense there’s a guy like Greg working there! To say he’s passionate is an understatement! Thanks Tommy
Thanks for posting . I love this stuff!!
Fantastic! And timely too. I'm about to get into building a partscaster this week. It's a budget build and I'm gonna see just how well it turns out. Your man here confirms much of what I know as well as some excellent new ideas.
Since I live on Maui and we have pretty much no luthiers, I am eating up all this info. Thank you for letting us see behind the scenes. Greg is the man!
