Guitar in the Wild- Building an Acoustic Guitar in Nature

[@alexandrunagy75]

I think that last year you mentioned something about having all sorts of different plans and ideas about guitar building I think we're seeing the fruits of all that planning and seeding 😊 Keep at it our philosopher

[@randmockguitars4079]

Philosopher..Ha! Thanks man. I'm working on it..I hope you like some of the stuff coming up. It's all over the place lol

I was thinking where to start, but of course I know where to start...37 seconds in when you mention ukulele! You have no idea how much delight that brought me 😅 And the whole video just delivers of course - sooo excellent, funny, thoughtful. Gill Bates was a serious laugh out loud moment. Get this...I am watching your video while traveling for once! In the birthplace of espresso for a nice synchronicity. Speaking of which, I had the best cappuccino of my life yesterday for less than 2 bucks in Milan, where if anyplace, coffee should cost three times more, haha! Also, back to your video, the addition of wenge wood...of course! Ok, I'm saving up my coffee money for a uke in the future 😁 Bravo!

[@randmockguitars4079]

lol, I thought that would perk your ears. And you're in Italy! How cool, it's so beautiful there.. soak it up and have all the espresso you can handle. There's an uke in your future regardless. Now whether it's a good one is another question lol. Wish me luck on it Have a great time and safe travels. So weird how we inverted.. I'm stationed home for a bit.

Haha, gill bates got me. Watch out for the modified mosquitos as well. This should be interesting…:

[@randmockguitars4079]

Damn, I got bit by a few out there. I think I'm going to work on the album "eat ze Bugs!" lol

“What fresh hell is that” 🤣😂🤣. Can’t wait to see what those tone woods do. Following this one. Or, these two.

[@randmockguitars4079]

lol.... You're going to ove the next episode, I think. Working on a tonewood experiment, if it works it should be really interesting

[@micksguitarsarecool]

les stroud meets luthiery? sign me up! Looking forward to seeing how to build an acoustic, wonder how chippy that torrefied spruce is. My experience with roasted woods is its best not to look at them or youll get a splinter.

[@randmockguitars4079]

Ooof, thanks for the heads up on that. I always seem to attract splintery woods.

[@theendofblue2225]

what a cool idea!! so get your pocket knife out and carve a guitar ;-) best of luck!!

[@randmockguitars4079]

Ha, I'd only succeed at losing a thumb if I tried that. Thanks!

[@McDGuitars]

Love the idea. I am an avid outdoorsman if you have any questions let me know. A french press with some quality french roast is a great way to start your day!

[@randmockguitars4079]

Oh I have questions all right.. I'll be taking you up on that. Like: bear spray or elephant gun? lol I foolishly thought I'd get away with instant. I'll have to make room in the pack for a french press.

[@McDGuitars]

Bear spray is fine and leaves more room for alcohol! You can get a metal french press for $30-$40.

@@McDGuitars I like your priorities my friend. Advice duly noted!
