Mule School- Why these aren’t “slide guitars”

[@NewLifeWithGuitar]

So good..!! I only started learning guitar 7 weeks ago and I'm documenting my entire learning journey on here so this was super motivational!

[@densphoto]

Folks .. on cost. Yes alot of $$$. But look at every other custom/boutique Acoustic builder, wood and medal, right! You pay for quality and attention.

[@ryangunwitch-black]

And I think it’s also about the connection between the people making the guitar and the person buying it. It’s not just transactional.

So well put. Thank you for sharing Ben's playing. I love playing chill fingerstyle on my brass tricone. I can't wait till I have a chance to try a Mule. I want a billet bridge for my national! Full agreement on copper vs glass.

Gorgeous resonator there love to have a resonator they sounds amazing just finger picking

[@thomasspieth6001]

I met you at a guitar show and heard you mention some of the time and craftsmanship that goes into the neck. They are consistently best in show imo.

[@IsaacParker-qq6zl]

Great video, where’d you get the tshirt from!

[@marriner5]

Beautiful! Does Ben have any music on Spotify? Last name?

[@AdamLevyGuitarTips]

Super duper cool.

[@rondahlquist9881]

Dumb question. What’s the song Ben is playing..? Awesome.

[@seankiely]

not a dumb question. Small Town by Bill Frisell

Gospel brother...gospel...

The roots of Appalachian music are olde english/irish folk songs and hymns.... This is reminiscent✨👍

[@Pearth2000]

So they don't make a square neck version

[@CryptidGrinder]

I want a mule so bad!!! But I'll never be able to afford one. Just sponsor me already 😢

[@officialWWM]

Me too but they are so ridiculously overpriced.

[@officialWWM]

Your most common customers are people with lots of money!

[@gleeb6248]

Have you seen Taylor prices lately…Mules are custom made, yes that does cost more

[@officialWWM]

@@gleeb6248 I’m in Australia, Taylor’s aren’t as popular here. A Mule will cost close to $6000 by the time it’s landed here. I don’t care if it’s custom, that’s ridiculous!

[@gleeb6248]

@@officialWWM ah, sorry, I understand now…I have a Mule($2,800 US) but I ‘m with ya now 😎

[@gleeb6248]

I do challenge your World’s Worst Musician, I’m rather bad too.

Custom made American guitars generally cost over 2k. He doesn’t overcharge given the craftsmanship
