| How To Build A Guitar : The String, Stick, Box Method
DVD-Video
------------------------------------------------------------
A Revolution in Modern Lutherie!
Twenty year veteran guitarist and guitar maker Bill Jehle blends traditional techniques of modern lutherie with the venerable cigar box guitar to create a radical new approach to learning the art of guitar building: build something quickly, simply and inexpensively first, then refine your technique for building a traditional guitar. All the techniques shown in the DVD directly apply to building a traditional guitar such as a Fender, Gibson, Taylor, or Martin. These guitars are just a much more simple way to get started building and a perfect way to learn and experiment.
If you are interested in building your own guitar but have put off getting started for fear of having to buy hundreds of dollars worth of tools and tone woods, fear no more. How to Build a Guitar : The String, Stick, Box Method will reveal how to do it quickly and affordably while having the time of your life! What is really amazing about learning to build a traditional guitar by starting with a simple cigar box guitar is that everything is optional on these guitars. The frets, the finish, the number of strings, and even the wood working are all optional. You really can build a guitar out of anything with the String, Stick, Box Method! Once you've mastered the basics of construction, you can tackle many other advanced instruments confidently.
This DVD is for anyone interested in building their own guitar, and learning to do it simply in a "walk before you run" style. How to Build a Guitar: The String, Stick, Box Method covers:

What people are saying about this DVD:
"I've bought or at least viewed several instructional videos usually the "how to play guitar" type, as opposed to the "how to build a guitar" type, and they invariably contain blatant errors, amateurish dialog, and poor camera work... Yours moves smoothly, shows detail where needed, the dialog is appropriate and clear, and the end result is a very well produced, highly useful DVD and a well made CBGuitar!!!! Your DVD gives me the steps and the confidence to be able to build one." Jeff Weaver, Cymbol Brass Pick craftsman
"The DVD is EXCELLENT. I viewed the entire thing. Very professional. I read the case cover and I must say you kept to the point and guide perfectly. Your neck/box arrangement is great for the new or first time builder. I like the idea of a neck without a fretboard. Nice and simple. I always use a fretboard, usually of contrasting woods. Just what I like. I wanted to make a video as well but you done too good for me." Jim Ferris, Cigar Box Guitar Builder
"Just so you know you're getting your money's worth, I found you via your ad in Acoustic Guitar magazine. Your philosophy dead-on. I am considering a StewMac kit and figured, as you suggested, to start with a simple one first and see just how much passion I have. Thanks for the kit - glad I could scarf one up. Smells great too!" -- Stuart McClure
