Default Hello from a new builder - Bounsall Guitarworks

Hello everyone. Some of you might know me or know of me from other online forums or social media outlets but I’m new here so I thought I’d introduce myself. My name’s Andy and I’m the owner/luthier at Bounsall Guitarworks, a boutique producer of hand crafted guitars located in Ottawa, Ontario…the beautiful capital city of Canada. Producing just a handful of guitars each year, my main focus is acoustic guitars but I do periodically build the odd electric as well. In fact it was the new owner of a recently completed semi-hollow electric who told me about this forum. So here I am, a new member and sponsor of AGF. I look forward to reading and participating in some interesting conversations, sharing my work with you, and hopefully making some new friends.

I am the proud new owner of the above mentioned Bounsall electric. ( just received it two weeks ago ). I did post it under NGD but I will also post the link here so that everyone can have a peek.

Welcome to the AGF Andy......great people, great craftsmen/women and a great source of information.

Thank you all for the kind greetings and thanks Daniel for pointing me to this forum. So glad you’re loving your new guitar. Can’t wait to see/hear some video of it in action.

Welcome Andy, I have been in Ottawa (Kanata) this summer but did not have the chance to run into your workshop, maybe next time.
I've been to KJP Wood supply for fun.

I am checking out your work on Instagram.

ciao !
alberto
