I'm the Guitar Buildbuster, building guitars in shapes and designs so you don't have to!
Who is the Buildbuster? Me... duh, why would you ask?..
By myself I not only build the guitars, I put them to the test!... and maybe try to sell them along the way

  Baz, good old fashioned wood burning ...  and some abalone dots ...   the guitar used to be Green ...  Shocked  The flood ruined the finish so all it got sanded off , then oiled (Tru-oil) ...   The really amazing thing was that the glue joints didn't come apart at all ...  Really says a lot about how good Titebond 2 glue is ... And I had pre greased the truss rod ends before installation , which prevented them from rusting ... solid ...     We had a few Fenders and Gibsons come in that had de-laminated completely ... fell apart ... wondering what they used for glue Huh
