I cut and carved a guitar out of ONE SINGLE WOOD SLAB - GGBO 2021- full build, no talking

This is build n°9, and my 6th guitar build! I’m lucky enough to be part of the invitational participants of this year’s Great Guitar Build Off competition (I don’t really know why, maybe some intern made a mistake and now they have to stick with it ... anyway, I’m here now). After making a guitar out of a shelf and then a guitar using only one hand, the next step was logical: making a guitar out of one single piece of wood. I know that this is not a unique concept, but one-piece guitars are rare enough to make a video like this visually interesting, and challenging enough to be fun to build. Alternatively I could have used a CNC and shot 20 minutes of slo-mo volute and side sanding, and close-ups of a tiny saw cutting out the CNC tabs (still in slow-mo), but I like building more than I like filming and editing :) This is not my actual GGBO video (this is just a tribute). That one will come out next week, with voice over comments. This guitar is the first one that I’ll ever sell, and it’s for a good cause
