It's Channel 30 here, NC. Tonight, at 10 PM, and 2 AM, they'll
show a tour of the Gibson Guitar Co., and how to assemble a Les Paul
guitar. Then casket mking. The show is Some Assembly Required. It's
also listed on Sn and Sun, but doesn't tell what the show will be those
two days. Should be interesting.

Thanks for the heads up, JOAT. Looks to be a new series.
I never would have known about it without your pointer.
Too busy learnin' new stuff 'stead of postin'. ;-)

That's my story, and I'm sticking to it.

I've actually built one of their guitar kits. I have to say that it
was interesting, nerve wracking and most detail oriented work I've
done to date.

Lots of steps of building up material seemingly removing most of it a
step or two later.

Sadly the instructions that came with the kit make a few assumptions
on the part of the builder's knowledge. I ended up downloading a
second set of instructions for a comparable kit from Stewert McDonald
Between the two I got the kit put together.

Saw the show, Some Assembly Required. Sort of like How It's Made,
but with a guy doing hands on. At least he's not a total idiot like
I've seen in one or two other shows. NOT referring to Mike Rowe on
Dirty Jobs, enjoy him and the show very much. All in all, an
interesting show. I'll definitely watch it again if it is going to be a
regular show. They did steel caskets, which was interesting, but kinda
wish they'd done wooden caskets too. The Gibson company was quite
interesting, but an electric guitar is an electric guitar far as I'm
concerned. Even so, I'd definitely watch the same show again, I always
get new ideas or inspiration. All in all, good show.
