Recycled audio from John, but you get to see the guitar being made...

That was excellent. That was so cool. I love seeing how guitars are made.

I had always wondered how they got the maple to wrap on the contour. Now I know. :cool:

Cool stuff! Nice song by Travis Larson as well. Seems like he's an official EBMM test pilot for their new stuff. I'd like to see him with the HH AL as well :p

Great video! I loved watching the process.

Thanks to EBMM for doing the vid, I've always wondered how the mothership looks like. I hope I can visit one day haha

Awesome video

Wow, excellent video, as a former materials/metalmechanics engineer (now I'm into finance, academically, long story, jeje) I always love to see how things are manufactured, CAD/CAM technologies, rapid prototyping and so on, especially these terrific objects we call guitars, even more if that guitar is my next incoming axe, jeje. Cheers. AJ.

I love watching the manufacturing process. It kinda makes the guitar/player/luthier relationship more personal when I can see exactly what goes into building my instrument.

Freaking awesome. Travis Larson is such a great guitarist (Travis Larson Band is a great group of musicians for that matter )

I'm so hurting with GAS right now, it's not even funny...Looks awesome, sounds awesome, bet it plays awesome as well. I just love the spikey sound of ebony with high gain soloing. BTW, that buffing robot at work looks absolutely cool :).

That video was a really enjoyable one!
Thanks to whoever is responsible for making it.
It is great to see how and where those works of art come from!

This video is beyond excellent - you get a little bit of everything. Jp and Travis Larson content, a great narrative, and all sort of behind the scenes looks into the making of the instrument. Big props to Sterling and Co. for this one. Thanks!

Thanks for the kind words guys! This guitar plays like a dream. I've always loved the JP neck but to add a chambered body was an awesome idea! I had a total blast trying it out. Love IT!
