jazzyvee Posted June 10 Share Posted June 10 Factory tours are so interesting. I did one last summer at the new place Rohnert Park, and also in 2012 at their old place in Santa Rosa. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the Lowden one, you got to see the 'experimental' guitars that some of the builders were allowed to produce. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grahambythesea Posted June 21 Share Posted June 21 I did the tour of the Taylor factory in El Cajun a couple of years ago. Fascinating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NickA Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 (edited) Didn't realise alembic were such a big outfit. I've been to the electric wood workshop.... but as its a small converted cowshed, there isn't much of a "tour" to be had. Fraction of the size.

crazycloud Posted June 24 Share Posted June 24 I loved the early part of the video with the resin filled coloured burl tops. Then later Mica explains how the different tops change the tone, so I wonder what the resin filled ones sound like? Plastic? I'm not knocking Alembic as I've owned 5 of them, but that was very de-GASsifying for me, I'm not even sure if I'd order one if I won Powerball.
