Having fun with my Epiphone Les Paul. I’ve never put decals on a guitar ever. But for the idea from students Brandon and Ian. It makes you feel younger. 😬

More 320 sanding and oil on the Flying V to make the zebra wood pop out nicely. Lots of detail work. It’s getting there!

Lari Basilio is my new discovery guitarist. She plays all instrumentals. She’s a rare find: she can play anything, doesn’t show off or have ego, has a strong melodic sense but knows how to go back to rock. She plays with a high level band.

Birth of a Flying V continued: neck sanded from gluing and first coats of Tru Oil applied. Have to hand it to Brandon. Though I have endless patience for music itself, this is already past my patience for woodworking!

A scary piece of sheet music in the mix today! Remember, whenever I make you sight read, it could always be worse! (Don’t try this at home kids).

I’m doing a little series about the building of a Flying V guitar. Brandon Podhola is the builder. It begins with clamping the neck onto the body and shows the zebra wood patterns.
