Dan's Acoustic Guitar Build Part 3/5 With Jonny Kinkead

It's time for neck shaping, neck joint, truss rod, frets and bindings!

Life too short for long YouTube videos? Please see the ‘Interesting bits and go-to sections’ information below.

Dan here, hello once more! Following Part 2, the guitar is now really starting to take shape as Jonny moves on to the neck. We also look at the bindings in this episode.
Just two more parts to come now before my wonderful new guitar is completed. I’m stoked to be able to share this with you – please join me in thanking Jonny again for this incredible insight and his graceful patience with me knocking around his workshop.

This is part three of five. For more on Jonny and his instruments, visit https://www.kinkadeguitars.co.uk/

Q: Why are you spelling Jonny’s name ‘Kinkead’?
A: Because that’s his name! The guitars are ‘Kinkade’, Jonny is ‘Kinkead’. He chose ‘Kinkade’ for the guitars because nobody could spell ‘Kinkead’ correctly.
