This is my second build. I started building and playing about two months ago. I am a metal fabricator, I am not a guitarist or a wood worker.

I want to thank everyone for the comments. I was very uncertain of posting this video. Its only my second guitar build and I havent played very long at all. Not to mention I've never taken a video of myself before, I was very worried about posting this and getting flamed. I cant tell you how much I appreciate everyones support and kind words. It means alot! With the success of this I will continue posting as I progressively get better and make better guitars(I hope I get better). Thank you again.

The guitar both looks and sounds very good and you play it well. Good work.

Thank you Vinyl, I didn't have the corner braces on there originally. The neck was doing some flexing and would give off some weird sounds everytime I moved,lol. I put them on not more than ten minutes before shooting the video :)

Nice sounding guitar. I also like the way you've placed two corner braces on either side of the neck to fit it to the box, it gives a great individual look.

Good stuff man.

Hey John, you just made my day man!!! Thank you. I have some of Keni Lee's CD's and 1 of John Mcnairs. Everything I know is from their tutelage, and Mike Snowden. Those guys can really play. I've pick up a bit from youtube as well. The more I play those bayou blues the more they come to me, I am really diggin' on it. I near put myself to tears earlier finding what must be the saddest note known to man, I dont know what it is but I sure like it! I cant wait to put some eerie echo on it!
