I came across this link from Grumpy on the Flatpick-L and thought it might be of interest to OLF members http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=y2SuYAYJ5oQ I hope he doesn't mind sharing it. Fred |

Hey...great find Fred. Thanks! BTW...I timed him...I'm definitely faster! <BSEG> Even more interesting are his other videos http://www.youtube.com/user/closetpicker Those guitars of his are the most imposing tone generators I've ever heard...loud and they sustain forever! True Banjo Killers! |

I enjoyed the "Time clock" video most of all. Check it out if you didn't! |

Check out that thin (front to back) bridge on his dreadnaught....... |

Yep, that very narrow bridge is one of his signatures. The first time I ever heard a Proulx in person set the standard for the tone I want to achieve. It's a high benchmark, no doubt. It was pretty cool seeing Mario pick and sing. I see he posted a video on using the Rotozip bit to trim his top and back flush with the sides. I keep meaning to pick some up, but haven't done it yet. The video is pretty convincing. I didn't know he used a router table to do it, though. I've been using a flush trim bit in a handheld laminate trimmer. I now have to retract my statement made sometime back that anything a router table can do for luthierie a table saw can do better! (Although I'll still probably use a handheld trimmer for this.) |
