Mr. Preston Swift Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 I'm looking for a descent DVD on building an acoustic steel-string guitar for about $40ish. Do you guys know any good ones that explain everything good? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ryanb Posted November 24, 2007 Report Share Posted November 24, 2007 Try this one: http://www.lmii.com/CartTwo/thirdproducts....obert+O%92Brien That's the Robert O'Brien video for $39.95. It's pretty good. The Frank Finocchio DVDs are much better, but also a lot more expensive ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DC Ross Posted December 14, 2007 Report Share Posted December 14, 2007 I'm on disk 4 of the Finocchio DVDs. Check your local library, they may have a copy. I'd say they're good, not great. For example, he didn't build his own neck, and while they show him sanding for a 1/2 hr at a time (no wonder it's 9 hours long), they totally neglected to show routing the neck heel pocket, and the camera work is shoddy. Ryan -- thx for the link to O'Brien's vid, I'll have to check it out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
