Matching the neck to the guitar body is a perfect metaphor for matching the brand to the individual behind it. Be known for something. Nick is! Thanks for bringing his work to the masses.
What a story of vision, artistry, determination and wisdom. These instruments are masterpieces created by a collective of excellence from the wood to the individuals who bring them to life. Amazing story all the way to the last second. Ho did Mr. Sugimoto get interested in guitars in the first place? Does he play?
Did he ever share any thoughts about what it was like to work on his own compared to some of the custom shops at Fender or Ibanez?
This is such a great video! I knew next to nothing about guitars and now I’ve walked away with some pretty cool knowledge. Definitely going to share!
🎸🤘
Awesome job on this on Anthony! His guitars are beautiful.
