Default What you don't need to make a guitar

I thought you all might enjoy this (what I found inspiring) video of folks making guitars in "less than ideal" conditions. Where there is a will, there is a way.

I would argue that this is well BEYOND the quality control of Gibson under Henry J. Patron, the luthier in the video, actually takes the time to file the edges of the frets.......
