Anybody want a fancy guitar? (Patreon)

Friends: 

I had a blast making the guitar in my last video and the response (both here and on YouTube is encouraging. I might want to do more of this content. 

I'm thinking about all the cheap guitar kits that are out there right now. Many of them are high-quality and offer good options for customizing. Making one of these instruments from a woodworker's perspective would make a great video. I'd love to buy one and build it for myself, but alas, I don't have the money. 

But maybe you do. 

Maybe one of my Patrons would like a new guitar and wants to pay for it. 

Here's how it would work: You pick a style of guitar you want and we find a kit you like. You buy the kit and have it shipped to me. You pay for any upgrades you want in pickups or hardware. I'll build and finish it and I'll pay for all the supplies (sandpaper, glue, finish, etc). You pay to have the finished guitar shipped to you. 

I do the work for free and make a video on the whole thing. 

The only catch is that I want to make a guitar that one cannot just buy for super-cheap. So, I don't really want to make a Stratocaster or Telecaster. These models have become so inexpensive that building one hardly makes sense. So, let's do something special: maybe a jazz-box or a semi-hollow. Perhaps a big Gretsch or another rockabilly guitar. Maybe you want a crazy heavy-metal guitar. It's not my thing, but I can build it. 

So if this appeals to anyone, the kits are all around $200, and you might want to factor in another $100 for shipping and incidental expenses. And of course, you get a shout-out in the video and a fancy guitar. 

If anyone's interested, just send me a message. 

Happy Monday!
