Crimson Custom Guitars
How do you build guitars? This channel is an outlet for Crimson Guitars guitar making tutorials and how-to videos with tips and tricks of the guitar makers trade released every week or two and video demos of our completed custom built guitars. We also shoot video diaries of entire custom guitar builds and post them here, see a guitar come to life in front of your eyes and learn how to make one in the process.
We are on all the main social media platforms spreading the word and throughout each working day we post photo's of every phase of every build. You can see each instrument grow from timber to tunes live or at weeks end through the Workshop Diary and the video blog here on YouTube! Don't forget to share and subscribe to our channel, we really appreciate it :)
