Sending this week off with a classic butt-picture. It might seem inapropriate but its actually quite fitting this time. About two weeks ago I hurt my back pretty badly, my hip twisted so that my spine pinched my sciatica nerve in my left leg, making it impossible for me to work for nearly ten days. I finally got an appointment with a chiropractor that was able to put everything back where it belongs. Hence the butt-pic to celebrate healthy hips!! #buttocks #lutherie

@erikigelstrom came by the shop for a light setup on his @fredholmguitars mandolin. While I did, he was kind enough to record this little clip of a used tenor guitar I just got in the shop. If you want to explore the wonderful world of fifths, please drop me a line! And if your swedish is a bit rusty, please just enjoy the wonderful playing in the third clip😃 #lutherie

Please meet the brand new Rasmussen Model R! I have been wanting to make a modern interpretation of a 00 size guitar for years, and this new model falls right between my Model C and Model 0, with its 14.25” lower bout. This first one, built for @guitargallerynashville will have a stunning old set of brazilian rosewood and an Italian spruce top. #lutherie

@gogosatoshi playing a wonderful piece of music on his new Rasmussen Model 0. Thank you Satoshi! ❤️❤️❤️#Repost @gogosatoshi with @get_repost ・・・新しいギターです！SwedenのRasmussen guitars / Model O です。Rasmussen guitarsと出会ったのは去年の春、その雑味のない澄んだ美しい音と反応の良さ・ルックスにすぐにファンになりましたが、今回ご縁があり製作者であるLarsさんが日本にいらっしゃっていて帰国する前に試奏させてもらい、これはすごい！ということでめでたくお持ち帰りと相成りました☺️ボディサイズを全く無視した音量も、その極上のトーンもお気に入りでまたひとつ宝物が増えました✌️Larsさん、ありがとう！ My new treasure! Here is Rasmussen guitars @rasmussenguitars model O. it's a newborn guitar! I met Rasmussen guitars last spring for the first time. Soon I felt in love with this purely beautiful sounds, artistic appearance. And also love quick response! Then I became a big fun of his guitar. I had a great chance to see Lars again before he leave to Japan this week, and got this beautiful newborn guitar! I didn't need to think that It was good or not😂 Here is a short movie that I played the guitar, check it! Thank you so much for your great work, Lars san!! #acousticguitar

I’m incredibly thrilled and absolutely delighted to announce that starting this year, I will start working together with one of the best guitar show rooms on the planet, The North American Guitar in London. To start off our relationship, they have ordered a matching pair of brazilian rosewood guitars that I’m so excited to start working on. I will start building these in June and head over to London sometime in October to deliver them in person. Pictured are the two sister sets of brw that will be used for these two guitars. Also, here’s a short interview and introduction from their blog: link in bio! #lutherie

Removing the varnish for the bridge glue up. The varnish measures less than 0.004”/0.1mm but still adds quite a bit of amber tone to the very white italian spruce top. #lutherie
