This time I’ll show you some of the work involved with the building of Number One’s neck. A lot of folks think it’s pretty much as easy as sticking some frets into a piece of Maple… well it’s not quite that simple… at least on the P-1. I’ll be breaking the neck building into at least 2-3 different Functional Art articles, because there is just so much to cover. In fact, there are tons more steps than what I’m outlining here, but if I keep taking the time to document this build, instead of building it, I think I’m going to be upsetting my very patient client, Mr. Eddie James.

As I mentioned in this column last year, I decided to build some guitars again. After many years away from the guitar business, I got the “jones” again, and designed my newest guitar, The P-1. Over the next several months I thought that I would take you through the journey of building serial number 001, which was ordered by Mr. Eddie James (thanks Eddie!).

I thought this might be kind of an interesting thing to write about… how does one go about developing a logo for their work? I’ve done this quite a few times. Many of those times I’ve done it with Pamelina, sometimes with my son Adam, this time was with both. As I looked at my drawing table, with all of the logo’s evolution laid out on it, I’d thought I’d tell you about it, so here’s the story.
