Brilliant video Mike :) Love watching stuff like this, a proper insight in to the process and care that goes in to making a fine guitar! Look forward to seeing a few more from you.

Fascinating video great work and playing from a true craftsman and gentleman.

That was truly a thing of beauty to watch. I want one...maybe two!

Never fail to amaze me mike. so glad you're my tech!

Absolutely truly amazing! Great insight on how you build guitars. LP junior special looks and sounds great. Well done Mike. Rock On!

Many thanks again Mike - that’s really helpful. I can visualise the jig well enough to knock one up in the next couple of days. Really enjoying watching your excellent videos - they are super quality and well worth watching. Great job!

Hi Mike, thanks for this video, it really shows how talented you are. For you to take the raw materials and then end up with you playing the stunning guitar is amazing.
