Re: LIVE NOW - Guest Luthier Series - Peter Crossley (Crossley Guitars)
Hey Peter,
This is outstanding, especially since you're staying up all night to do this (please stay away from the machinery tomorrow LOL.)
1. Where/how did you begin to acquire the requisite knowledge to build your own unique designs? Books? Internet? Trial and error?
2. How do you do your top carves? By hand? Machine? Mix of hand tools and machine?
3. How greatly do templates and story sticks feature in your build process? Do you have a template for the entire guitar, or just the significant features? (body contour, pickup routes, bridge location, fret slots, etc.)
4. Given the choice of being machine only or hand tool only, which of the two would you choose? Why?
