At least once a month I get an inbox on social media or an
email asking questions about getting a custom guitar built and all the bla bla
bla that goes with it... so for the next few months I will be documenting
a build from start-to-finish covering every aspect from how to choose
a luthier (guitar builder), choosing a design that works best
for you, how to not "over spend" and there will be video of the actual build from the luthier in part two of this series. On that note, this will be in a three part editorial series called "Building a Custom Guitar From Start to Finish", and will be in direct correlation with the Facebook group "Beardly Customs Build for LMG". The luthier I will be working with is Rick Link of Beardly Customs and he has agreed to do this build as an interactive
workshop allowing you (the reader) to follow the step-by-step process of
ordering a custom built guitar, and watching it built in real time while he answers questions in regards via the Facebook group. By the end of
this editorial series you should have a complete understanding
on how to spend a few thousand dollars on a custom built guitar while feeling fuc*ing amazing about
it! Now let's get this party started...
