Learning how to build an electric guitar

[glatt]

Yeah. Absolutely.

The fret board is done by cnc. For the wires and little dots.

Working there would be decent as a summer job, but each task was too specialized to hold my interest for any real time. This one lady was sanding by hand the bracing that is attached to the face panel. There are a dozen or so surfaces to sand on each guitar, and she said she does about 150 guitars a day. That would get old after a month or so.

There's a legend in the UAW about production line Charlie who's job it was to put the wheels on the left side of the cars coming down the line. When they started compact cars with 4 lugs instead of 5, after a couple months he ran screaming into the night, never to be seen again.
