Recommended Posts

Hello!

I hope everyone is safe and well out there.

The past few months have been a little manic... And very quiet... So here's a little update on what's been happening during the Coronavirus pandemic of 2020 and the guitars that have materialised from the Kemp Guitars workshop. Enjoy!

Those satin finished ones look great. What finish do you use?

do you have a web site that talks more about your set up/where you are? any youtube presence?

thanks, really nice guitars

Thanks Simon. I have a website (link in signature) but you're likely to find more information reading through my past threads :) Unfortunately, no YouTube channel as I'm simply too shy to talk and look into a camera!

Thanks dude. That's a Gotoh Floyd Rose installed in that guitar.

2k satin? Which brand? Satin and matte finishes are one area i havent mastered yet

Hey dude, I use 2k matte SprayMax for my finishes. Easy to use, cures quick and offers great finish 😃
