ABOUT THIS TUTORIAL

The content of these videos does not follow a step by step of the same guitar model from start to finish.
The reason for this is because each guitar you are going to make will have different situations and just following the process of a single guitar will not make you know how to make any one.
It would be very convenient for me to make a step by step video showing me making just one guitar.
It is well known that free video creators are comfortable with presenting a guitar that flows easily on their screen. That's because this one has already made this guitar and already knows what to do.
But when you are going to apply these same techniques on a totally different guitar, you will certainly experience enormous difficulty.

You'll learn how each feature works and as you make your own guitar model, you'll know what to do because you know each of the software's tools well.

WHO THIS COURSE IS FOR

Back in Brazil in 2005, he set up his workshop with his modest CNC, but not to make his own brand, but to make projects and prototypes for luthiers he had met in Germany and the United States.
In 2006, with Vectric's software, he found a niche in the market, with the demand for guitar files for beginner CNC manufacturers.
In 2014 he started working for some factories, the main one being Bass Mods from CA.
During the pandemic he made 2 YouTube channels to teach guitar making tips and crafts in general and made this tutorial to be used as a guide to better enjoy these videos.
