Great Link, thanks! I just spent half hour on clicking related YouTube videos on guitar making, such as birth of a guitar and resonance testing. All good stuff!

It's a nice vid. Marketing, if you ask me! No one takes 299 hours to build a guitar!

i don't know how long it takes to build a guitar, but 299 hours is almost 7.5 weeks (at 40 hours/week). 7.5 weeks would give almost 7 guitars per year. don't some luthiers make about that may guitars per year?
