Hi folks,

I've been messing around some more on the girlfriend's computer and managed to stitch together this collection of "rejected" photos from the upcoming Fretboard Journal article on building with Sergei de Jonge.

Note: We were all working on our own guitars so the processes are in order but there's discontinuity between the instruments. I mean, SOMEBODY had to take the photos, right?!

How many steps can you name?

It's on LiveVideo instead of YouTube, so it's in STEREO!

Enjoy!

Warren, I loved it! Great pics and a really cool tune to watch them by. BTW, looks like you built yourself a couple of very nice guitars.

Warren,

Thanks for that! I took a 5-week course from Sergei & Co. back in the
winter of 2000 and really enjoyed it. Thanks for the trip down memory
lane!

I thought it was great. I loved seeing the guitar mounted with a drill in hand!

Had to have been a great experience.

I thought it was a pretty cool video, with the exception of one slide - the one where Serge is routing the dovetail on the body with the guitar being held between his knees - looks WAY too scary and dangerous to me - if that thing ever jumps look out ...
