Charles has the enviable gift of being able to be restrained and polite when offering opposing ideas.

I do not have that gift, so I will come right out and say bluntly that Randy Schartiger is a total blot on the luthiery landscape ... he is an unskilled, inarticulate hack who should be debarred from ever putting up any more of his misleading videos on Youtube.

I could literally fill a book with all the basic errors he makes both when attempting to repair a guitar, and also when expounding his half-baked opinions about them.

My advice would be to ignore everything Randy Schartiger says .... you will find far, far, better videos to learn from.
