I make custom boutique guitars, into finance , into bitcoin, and I Love me a good conspiracy theory.
My take on the thin line acoustic electric hybrid. I think I improved on the design of this because everyone else attaches the controls to the top, I floated the top above the controls. #luthier #guitar #guitarmaking #diy #custom #acoustisonic
Little build footage on the bitcoin guitar neck. #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #bitcoin #hodl #bitcoinart #woodworking
Starting the finish work on the bitcoin guitar, lovin’ that fretboard! * * * #luthier #bitcoin #bitcoinart #guitar #hodl #guitarbuilder #custom
This is almost done, a couple small imperfections to fix, like a couple of the copper bits got ripped out by the router when doing the dots, but otherwise, lookin’ pretty sweet! Gonna be a real interesting piece. #luthier #guitar #bitcoin #hodl #guitarbuilding #diy #bitcoinart #inlay
This might be a hit here on #nostr . This is a collab #bitcoin guitar, the pen work was done by my friend Jake Allen, whose art has been featured in bitcoin magazine. We’re far from done, but the vision is taking shape. #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #graphicart
Another build in the books! #guitar #luthier #guitarbuilding #customguitar #guitarporn
I’m working on an acoustic electric hybrid in the same vein as the fender acoustisonic, mine has a focus on more top movement. #guitar #guitarmaking #guitarbuilding #luthier image
Started assembly on this honey burst on maple Burl. I’m kind of obsessed with the oil finish at the moment. #luthier #guitarmaking #guitarbuilding #guitar #woodporn #guitarporn
All oiled up , ready for Coat #2 #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #lutherie #acousticguitar #customguitar #bitcoin
Always my favorite part revealing the natural beauty with a 1st cost of finish. Love the oil look! #luthier #guitar #guitargear #guitarmaking #woodworking
A fresh coat shellac on the soundboard after bridge placement, I’m planning on using osmo poly x as the finish here for a real raw natural feel, but as it’s somewhat a penetrating oil I’m sealing the top with shellac to keep from dampening the tone. With any luck I’ll be stringing this up next week. * * * #luthier #guitar #stewmac #guitarbuilding #finishing
Finally got a result on this arm bevel that I am happy with , you really have to pay attention on the reveal edges that they are nice and sharp before glueing your veneer. #guitar #luthier #guitarporn #stewmac #diy
This neck just needs some frets and she’s done. Matter of fact, the whole guitar is ready for assembly after that! #luthier #guitar #guitarbuilding #nsfw #guitarporn
A new build getting close to finished, just needs some fretboard finish and frets.
Got the headstock veneer with the babel fish on and the neck rough carved . #luthier #guitar #guitarmaking #woodworking #inlay #hitchhikersguidetothegalaxy
Neck inlay and frets installed, now in working on a babel fish inlay for the headstock veneer. #hitchhikersguidetothegalaxy #luthier #guitar #inlay
Working on the inlay in this hitchhikers guide to the galaxy build , love how Grok came out. I have a babel fish inlay yet to do on the headstock. #luthier #guitarbuilding #inlay #guitar
Fixing to do a little Inlay, this one is Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy Inspired. image

Been working on this Stewmac Dreadnought kit for a bit, accidentally purchased the glued in neck option instead of the bolt on one, lets say you better follow their directions exactly for that to go smoothly, it wasn’t easy but I finally have the neck angle correct image

This neck is nearly complete. From previous posts, I added a headstock veneer on the back side to hide the scarf joint. The benefit is it looks extra custom.
