Bobby Smale Designs

I am a Sound Engineer and Designer and for theatre and live events. On the side I build and play hand made musical instruments from found objects and exoitic hardwoods.

Got myself a custom branding iron made with my logo/makers mark. Doing some test branding, I think this will add I nice detail to my guitar builds. At very least it will be more consistent than me hand painting it. I haven’t had much time to build lately, but there’s good stuff coming soon! #woodworking #woodburning #guitarproject #guitarbuilding #luthier #handmade #burnit #burnitup #artist #artisan #sounddesigner #designer https://www.instagram.com/p/CqCM6uJr8ag/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Just finished, I call this bass Spector. I tried some new things with the finish and some of the building techniques. Maple Blot on neck, with a Machiche Fret board. The body is carved out of a 2 pc Alder Bass Body block. #guitar #bass #handmade #musicalinstrument #musicalinstruments #cigarboxguitar #cigarboxnation #music #art #artist #artisian #woodcarving #woodcarver #woodworking #sounddesigner #instrumentdesign #luthier https://www.instagram.com/p/CjMqn9OgPGX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
