First video of the day, potentially. I'm going to try to get the demo video edited today too.

Lisa,
Great looking guitars! Just Tung Oil huh? Makes me want to go completely natural on my build.
i was experimenting with the differences between MinWax Tung Oil and MinWax Wipe On Poly... Tung seems to stay
lighter than wipe on poly. I am drawn to doing a complete West Systems Epoxy (105 + 106) to get it glossy, and a number of other good
Anyway, thanks for the inspiring videos to boot!

My pup Koa helped me edit the demo video...
And, it's done!

Yep, Minwax tung oil. I've used Minwax Poly, but I don't think it was the wipe on kind. Much thicker and harder finish than the tung oil. The tung oil was incredibly easy to work with though.
Very nicely done! Quite the bone-crunching tone with two of them thrashing away. How are they tuned?
I put them in BEADGBE, but I think the guys played them in drop A.
Love the film work in the demo. I (and my brother) would have loved to have seen some different genres played on the guitars. But, like I've said before, amazing work. Really top shelf builds.
I was planning on multiple genres and had a few more volunteers, but no time to go around filming them all.
Lisa, those sound fantastic. Had a nice TesseracT feel at the beginning of the demo video.
