Thanks for posting this'n. My goodness. I did enjoy that. Watching these guys do their thing is akin to meditating. Swept away, I've been.
I once commissioned someone to knock out one of those little monsters for me, from scratch — one of the guys who co-wrote a book called Contemporary Acoustic Guitar Design and Build — and his workshop's a bit like that one. The genius and the skill of these people is truly awe-inspiring. Goodall has some machines there to die for, where so many of those of the old ways don't have the luxury. Not that their results differ, necessarily, on account of the lack. It can go either way.
Nice to see Gotoh tuners making an appearance, too. I have a mandolin that's crying out for some good tuners. Pushed now over the edge, I am — the purse will take hit, accordingly. And the finish Goodall uses is also worth paying close attention to. If ever I go again, down that rabbit-hole, that's how I'll go, if I can swing it. I do love the nitro but it's a bit finicky.
Let me guess. Wild Boar Recording Studios?
Haha! Good one. Certainly would have been apropos.
Reality was just a little more mundane, "Grass Ranch Recording".

Prolly woulda been bad karma to lay in a supply of bacon jerky.
Exceptional
Another lusty luthier — how delightful
Thank you, BoT
You mean, folks like Rich Sambora, Rich Blackmore, and the like?
what i want to know, is walking along through the park with peanuts that happen to be in his pocket.
Said like its a regular occurance, almost pre-emptive preparedness for a regular event.
Hmm aggressive squirrels, and now the addicts are gone....?
Surprised that the squirrels were still so hungry after clearing the park of the riff raff
look familiar?
Did you consider having the 12 string strung like a Rickenbacker? I like the zero fret.
Loud ringing 12’s are nice for Christmas music.

Yes the squirrel attack was just like that, through the trees.
Carrying nuts is useful. If you’re going down an alley and the rats come after you, you can distract them by tossing peanuts in the other direction.

Noticed December 15 is the day Stan Kenton was born. Seem to have forgotten until that ping I used to listen to a lot of Stan Kenton. Reasonably uncertain he ever lead a soul number.
Chowny would be a good name for a short scale dog.
