I didn't realize the b-bender had that huge arm off the side. It's not surprising - you handle it really well!

"Guitar face." I was so engrossed in the instrument and your hands I wouldn't have even noticed if you hadn't put the text there. 😂

Very informative and enjoyable!

I think this video was very interesting and informative. I'd be fine with musical interludes also. (If you're feeling up to it.) :-)

You have my vote for including music and music history. And, at 77 my arthritis mixes with "essential" tremor to assure frustration with anything needing fine motor skills. While I have given away most of my guitars I still have an old Guild 12 string for banging out chords.

I really liked this videos mix of maker explanation and music theory. Custom made instruments are really inspiring. Sorry to hear about the arthritis :-( (I’ve been managing RSI symptoms for years so I sympathise with needing to choose to preserve one’s hands for the important things.) Ewen

My adventure into guitar making started with a Tele build as well. They don't have what you want? Build it! And I'd always wondered what the practical use of the B-bender was, and now I know! Thanks for another great video. :-)

Thanks Fran, Love the music. That guitar sounds great. Play as much as you like. I enjoy it very much.

Sure! Play something now and then, would be cool! Rush did a song "Losing it" which addresses aging artists and creators. Great song, true and rather sad. (Alexa knows it.) Take care, keep creating and labbing! (In your "Fab Lab".... I know, shoot me...:) Stubat

I would be proud to own a Franocaster. Nice! The Franocaster II must be the blue one.

You have many beautiful skills Fran. 😃

I love the music videos and would like to see more, but obviously only make as many as you feel comfortable with. Also, I just ordered a GBV CD as my musical education is clearly lacking.
