Great vid, thank you for posting.
I worked for 30 years as a lab technician. During a few jobs I was blown away by working alongside very precise machinists. One 7 year stint with a DOE research national lab I couldn't believe the tolerances that were designed on the assembly drawings... +/- .0003 of an inch. Seems like Jason designs also have very high build tolerances. That medium light string set he uses sounds interesting. I have my own custom set for a short scale Tom Anderson electric guitar that helps string to string with a balanced tension.

Jason was so nice to me two years ago at the SB show. His necks felt so interesting. Super comfortable and an addictive feeling carve that allowed for easy fingering and thumb rest. Nice heel design as well. Maybe that's why those 5 new presentation guitars sounded so strong? His guitars have a very bold voicing. Warm and beautiful.

I would love a MD cutaway someday.
