I just got an email from a 16-year-old beginning luthier who sent me a link to his YouTube video of him building his first scratch acoustic guitar. I was blown away by it, and thought you all might like to see it, too. Here's the URL: http://www.youtube.com/yukonstrings. His "Guitar Building The Fast Way" is great fun to watch ---- he also has put up around 7 separate videos of the actual, real-time building process. Enjoy!!! (I was particularly amazed at his skill at so young an age!) Kathy |

There is...at the end of the "Guitar Building Part 7" video, and on the "My first homemade guitar!" video. He has 9 videos --- 7 of the whole process (in slower motion than the "Fast" one!). They're all listed when you click on "more videos from this channel" under his name. Kathy |

Oops...(now I see why people want an "EDIT" button)....my previous post was in reply to the question about how his guitar sounded. LARRY: Thanks for your kind words! And...LANCE: It was great meeting you, too. Healdsburg was great. Your guitars were, as usual, just beautiful! I still can't get over how friendly so many luthiers are.... That's what makes Healdsburg so fun. Kathy |

That was very cool. If he sticks with it, he could have a promissing career, not luck all us old guys (I'm kidding) |

A nice reminder that it can be done well with little more than elbow grease. Inspiring, really. Good for him!! I also like his selection of Mozart's Rondo alla turca in A minor for the background music. |

What a great video, just watched the speedy one, Lance should really invite him to the forum. It just shows what can be done with the minimum of tools. Colin |
