The neck gluing stage is always fun. And with the finish this is when a guitar really starts coming to life.
What's your favourite part of a build to see or to do yourself? . .... .

What would you prefer; pulling weights at the gym or radiusing a fretboard? According to @1812guitars there’s not much difference between the two! . . . .

Coffee, Resin & Wenge - or in Ben’s mind, Good, Fun & Hell no!
Our students really do come up with some interesting ideas and concepts to say the least!
Oh and did we mention that it’s a headless 8-string, with a floyd rose system?... . . . .

What better way to warm up than by channelling your teenage angst into some sweet riffs? 😉 one of our two newbies @whoisdanmcneil was clearly having fun with the @bfmvofficial riffs of "Waking The Demon" and "Tears Don't Fall" on the 2020 Build! Why not head over to our YouTube Channel and show him some love? This is showing off the 2020 build after all - so why wouldn't you want to watch Crimson get a bit Metal? . . . .... #crimsonguitars #crimsoncustomguitars #guitar #madeintheuk #britishstyle #bencrowe #guitarsofinstagram #guitarbuilding #woodworking #guitarlife #guitarlove #boutique #guitarra #luthier #custom #metal #bulletformyvalentine #rock #riffs #2020 #letsgetthisparrystarted"

Chris really can’t keep himself out of the limelight, can he? 😉
Thankfully with his @isotunesaudio in; he gets to listen to his favourite albums, protect his hearing AND be caught off guard relatively easily!
Plus, look at that smile 😉... . . . .

It's that time of the build where a student can spend a day or two of (seemingly non-stop) sanding. It's an arduous but necessary process and we only trust @triton_tools_uk to help our students, no matter the skill level, achieve consistent results so that they can move on to the finishing stages of thier builds. . . . #crimsonguitars #crimsoncustomguitars #guitar #madeintheuk #britishstyle #bencrowe #guitarsofinstagram #guitarbuilding #woodworking #guitarlife #guitarlove #...boutique #guitarra #luthierintraining #coolguitars #handmadeguitars #electricguitars #student #luthierschool #handmadeguitars #guitarbuildingschool #learning #course #woodworkingtools #tools #makersgonnamake

Our favourite things: Seeing you using our oils and stains & the best part of a build is seeing the wood come alive under the finish. Great job @mitchtribick
Posted @withregram • @mitchtribick Decided on colours after loads of experimentation. Learned lots in the process! All with @crimsonguitars stunning stains and finishing oil... I'm calling it Fiery Tiger Eye . .... . #guitarfinishing #stunningstains #woodworking #woodfinishing #flamedmaple #tigereye #finishingoil #woodstain #luthiery #crimsonguitars #luthier #guitarbuildersofinstagram #woodstain

The guitar is finally finished!
What do you think of Ben's first crowd sourced challenge build? Did he over complicate your originally complex choices?
... You chose: a 6 String Guitar with a multi-scale, a Neck Through with a Semi-hollow Body in the Explorer shape. Twin Humbuckers and a custom inlay inspired by Ben's tattoos.
So....does it live up to the challenge? . . . #2020challenge #buildchallenge #challenge #luthier #bencrowe #guitarbuildersofinstagram #guitarbuilder #guitar #customguitar #electricguitar #explorerguitar #padauk #naturalwood #crimsonguitars #guitarbuild #semihollow #semihollowbody #custommade @ Crimson Guitars

Start your morning off the right way - with a Scion that will be assembled and ready to play, by the end of the day!
We’re certainly looking forward to getting this beauty strung up and played! . .... . .

Levelled by hand, to level your frets - our levelling beams come in a number of sizes and are all levelled perfectly by hand.
It takes a lot of hard work, effort and (in our tool makers’ cases) heavy metal to get them just right! . .... . .
