  • Many thanks for your kind comments it makes all those lonely hours in the studio worthwhile!

  • VERY FINE CRAFTSMANSHIP. I like seeing the hand carving and hand chizeling of the instrument.

    Looks very fine tuned.

  • @SummertimeSeries Many thanks for your supportive comments, it is a labour of love to produce an instrument that a fine musician can coax beautiful sounds from - it often brings a tear to my eye!

  • Thank you for your comments on my work. In truth, I wish it were my guitar on the audio track but unfortunately most artists I work for are exclusively contracted to their record labels and cannot record with/for anyone else, their material is also copyright which would not allow me to associate my video with there work - what a nightmare! The music was found free of copright on the 'net, the piece is from Danza Espanola by Granados, the guitar is unknown but the artist is Russian.

  • Your experience is obviously very limited and biased then; so sad you should feel this way without the joy of playing and hearing one of my guitars, Xuefei clearly does not feel this way!

  • My God I cant believe anyone could have anything negative to say about this video. There is an idiot born every minute though and I think that you can put it down to this unfortunate fact good sir !! Thank you for sharing a video of your awesome workmanship and skill. It is an absolute privilege to get a peek at a master at work.

  • awesome

  • Hats off to you, sir! Not only are you a master craftsman, you've also put a great motivational/instructional video on the web: thanks! I started making a guitar many years ago - though never finished it, due to pressure of work. In about five or six years time I'll set up a workshop and I will finish it and, hopefully, make a few more besides. I'll ask your advice nearer the time. Hopefully, you'll be kind enough to point me in the right direction. - Good luck in all you do!

  • That was very enjoyable to watch. Thanks for putting it up for us.

  • @axefixer I agree with you. It's so stupid to hear the uneducated comment below. They always think that good guitar should come from spain..that's bias.
