KempGuitars 281 Posted August 20 Report Share Posted August 20 (edited) 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! And finally... We have other builds in progress and our custom order books are open Edited August 20 by KempGuitars 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

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!
