Thread: Help needed with Luthier Links

More to add to this message as my computer crashed now fixed.
Only a small amount of my business is for Acoustic Guitar makers but this will be changing this year.
Best regards Bob

More acoustic tops, back and sides would be great !!

Hmmm not sure Bob maybe look for some build related sites that offer info on wood choice that suits the woods you are selling. Maybe a site that shows a drop top being made. Maybe sites like Stu's that will inspire people to want to use some of your drop tops.

Jim

Please turn the Tele up.

Hi Jim, Stu web site will definitely be one of the links we have already talked about that.
If you can think of any let me know.
Cheers Bob

Please turn the Tele up.

You could use this one, but alas these are tonewoods of Queensland origin.

I hate to be the bringer of bad news Stu but it looks like you have built that guitar upsidedown

Jim

hahaha!!

thats a damn nice tele

if i understood what you were asking a lil better woodturner, i would help out....
but im not sure what to say *slowly backs out of the thread*

I think Bob wants you to give him suggestions for luthier websites so he can link to them from his own shopfront website, presumably trying to push his new site up in the google rankings.

MUCH more effective is to get other sites to link to YOURS, Bob!

lol sorry man....
im an idiot

just looked at your site
guess who im gonna annoy when im ready to get my back and sides for my acoustic build

hmm im not sure about links...

theres a fair few instrument building sites around

Hi Matthew, I am already up there very high in google search with lots of links to my site.
What I am looking for are good sites that show building drop tops etc.
sites that help luthiers etc, Stu at blues tone guitars will be a link but looking for more Cheers Bob

Bob, you frequent the ANZLF forum dont you? Why dont you put up a link to that excellent forum? Theres also the US based OLF forum.

Cheers Martin

I agree with Martin.
ANZLF is the most comprehensive lutherie forum in Oz, especially with Acoustic/mando/ukes.
There's a lot of awe inspiring work made right here in Oz and most is showcased right there.

I lurk there alot but don't post as much as I should.

World class building on the ANZLF forum indeed.
Don't discount yourself from being included in that statement either, Martin.

Thanks for the compliments Stu but I assure you I'm not a world class builder.....I started far too late to ever become an accomplished builder. No..I just do it for fun and occasionally I get lucky and turn out something half decent.

Cheers Martin

I have to agree with Stu here Martin.
I have seen some great builds that you have done, and you can never be too late to become an accomplished builder your on your way.
Cheers Bob
