Not my video. But he might be coming up with something I've never seen before that's worth exploring.

Andries: Tim has his workshop on the east-coast of the USA. He started his youtube channel doing carpentry and stuff but has now started doing guitars out of reclaimed materials. And yes, his shop is really well equipped. He's also got a CNC machine that he uses to carve the necks on his guitars.

I like the wrap around frets.  I've done the side string before , and i have seen  3 strings  on  front and  a 4 stringer on the back . seen a bass string on the back that double as a truss rod .  even seen a revolving "gatling  gun"  type setup  with like 5 necks .  etc . But this in a nice execution of the concept.
