Les Paul Time Lapse Build

Guitars are beautiful instruments. Second from the left is my 1976 Gibson Les Paul. Despite being over 40 years old, that guitar still plays like new. And it looks great for its age. I never really appreciated just how complex a job it is to build a Les Paul style guitar until I came across this video.

A bit long at roughly 23 minutes, I nonetheless watched it in one sitting, amazed at the luthier’s skill.
