Better Woodworking from WOOD magazine presents Build an Electric Guitar with Robert O'Brien:
This video includes a printable PDF file with measured drawings and schematics for the guitar.
Robert O'Brien is a classically trained guitarist and a woodworker who has always had the desire to put the two arts together and make guitars. This opportunity came in 1997, when he was living in Sao Paulo, Brazil. "I had the opportunity of meeting Antonio Tessarin, one of the best and most highly regarded luthiers among Brazilian guitar-makers." Over the next couple of years, Robert studied the craft and built several guitars under the supervision of Tessarin. While living in Brazil, Robert came back to the States to take courses in guitar building with renowned steel-string and classical guitar-builder Kent Everett of Everett Guitars in Atlanta, Georgia. Robert now resides in Parker, Colorado, with his Brazilian wife, where he continues building guitars using the methods learned in Brazil and with Kent Everett. He also teaches guitar- building at Red Rocks Community College in Lakewood, Colorado. Each semester, Robert offers courses in classical and steel-string guitar building. He actually builds a guitar right along with the students in each class.
In addition to this video, Robert is the author of two DVDs on guitar building: "Build a Classical Guitar with Robert O'Brien" and "Build a Steel-String Guitar with Robert O'Brien." He also has a DVD on guitar finishing titled "Guitar Finishing with Robert O'Brien."
This how-to woodworking video runs 2 hours, 13 minutes.
