Musician and songwriter. Currently mostly focusing on post metal, but I get easily distracted by other genres. Will *maybe* start finishing some more music soon… https://on.soundcloud.com/7ypzCmfpp12KKMmD7 www.youtube.com/channel/UCJAs0fabYA1FJmLrs9hIylw

Another little milestone for the guitar build. Binding is on and I’m ready to start staining. Just trying to convince myself to go with my original sunburst idea, as this is looking pretty neat as it is. On top at least…

Another saturday morning, another vocal session. This week I’m trying to add lyrics to this track. I’ve got a weird idea, but no idea if it’ll work… time to find out I guess! #ableton #homerecording

I don’t even know what is real any more…

More progress being made with the veneer top. Slightly bigger gap due to the round-over than I was expecting. Will re-assess the plan once it’s been filled. Nice to see it finally looking guitar shaped though.

I have managed to successfully glue the veneer to the body and headstock. This was a scary part as the veneer is fragile (and expensive!), but I think it went ok. Next step is to trim off the excess and rout the binding slot. #guitar #baritone #diy

Ha. Yeah you definitely win on that front.

I did not cut the body unfortunately. Picked it up cheap off eBay. I’m really enjoying the process, but it’s long winded as I can only do the messy stuff outside and I’m a bit limited by this wet British winter.

I’d recommend it though :)

Time for a saturday morning vocal session. I apologise in advance to my neighbours. #homerecording #postmetal #doom

Looking forward to trying out these Railhammer pickups in the guitar build.

Not the most exciting update today. But a necessary step in the build: deciding on the colour!

This is my final colour test before deciding whether to go natural or not. This will be sanded back before adding a sunburst style effect over the top. #guitar #diy #guitarbuild

Thanks. Yeah I’m mostly going for the wall of fuzz / big sounds, with some crunchy cleans thrown in for some dynamics. Luckily I’m studio based so I don’t have to take it to gigs!

Like everything else in my tiny ‘studio’ it’s all a bit of a jumble. But it works for me. Technically 3 pedal boards. The bottom 2 can be run in parallel, for example if I want a mixture of fuzz and light overdrive.

Trying to get more music related things into the algorithm, so I thought I’d start sharing the progress of my first ever guitar build. It’s going to be a Bass vi/ baritone - and I’ve no idea how it will turn out! Feel free to join me for the ride. #music #guitar #baritone #postmetal #DIY

Well, I’m glad you addressed it. However it would have been a brilliant tv moment if Greg had gone to hand him the trophy and you’d interrupted and said “I just need to show this little bit of footage…”
