I have always wanted to see what you'd look like in leather...🔥😍

This is @tomgibson3783's homemade partscaster.  Sometimes, the best guitars are the ones you make yourself...and then have your friends customize for you by covering them in hand-tooled leather...and then those friends also make you a custom handmade leather strap with your name on it!  When I say it's homemade, I mean Tom *made* the body himself from 100+ year old pine, and loaded it with @donmarepickups.  The intricately tooled leather covering and custom strap by @natesleather.

This is one of two guitars currently on loan from the Gibson/Segui Guitar Collective, and it REALLY makes me want to get back into building my own guitars again!

A gift for the pub master of Queens pub at Minnesota Renaissance Festival from his employees. I made sure to earn my money on this pair. #custom #handtooledleather #strongholdleather #overpostober

I'm not going to lie: this creation, handmade by @tomgibson3783 and @natesleather basically takes pictures of itself. I don't even have to try and it looks amazing. PS: check out the back (photo 2), and some detail shots (photos 3 and 4). Just incredible leather work by Nate. #tele #teletuesday #telecaster #guitarphotography #vintageguitar #guitar #guitars #guitarra #electricguitar #guitarre #chitarra #handmadeguitar #handtooledleather #leatherwork #art #artsandcrafts #leatherartwork

And here is the second, but no less spectacular, guitar on loan from the Gibson/Segui Guitar Collective: @michaelsegui's handmade, TK-equipped, Bigsby-esque flame-topped birdseye-necked beauty with handtooled leather pick guard. A lot of work went into this one by multiple craftspeople in two countries, and partially thanks to the pandemic and the closed border between the USA and Canada it was literally years in the making. Inspired by some suggestions from @jarsh_alexander six years ago, the body is super light chambered Engleman spruce with a curly maple top made by @tomgibson3783 , and finished in hand rubbed sunburst and bound by @hooperguitars. The neck is birdseye maple made by @judgewolfeguitars using wood from Tom's family farm in Eastern Canada. The tooled leather pickguard is by @natesleather. Cast Aluminum Replica pickup and #bakelite armrest by @tksmithguitar with True vibrato by @bigsby and super comfy Duane Eddy arm by Duane Eddy arm by @duaneeddyofficial More detail shots of this beauty will follow... #telecaster #paulbigsby #bigsby #bigsbytelecaster #bigsbyvibrato #choppedb5 #bigsbyb5 #tksmith #tksmithguitar #tksmithpickups #tksmithequipped #slotheadscrewsforthetone #leatherpickguard #tele #teletuesday #telecaster #handtooledleather #duaneeddy #duaneeddyarm

#TeleTuesday homemade #Leathercaster by @tomgibson3783 and @natesleather.

Also: I am super happy because I just received the new "Travel Well" double record on CD from my favourite band @theredhillvalleys. Now I just need to find a CD player to play it on! Anyone have an old computer or car I could borrow?? 😂 In the meantime I am enjoying them on their YouTube channel.

Check out the snazzy 3/4 sleeve concert tee I got from their merch store…makes me nostalgic for my youth! It's just like the ones we used to buy at the big arena shows back home in Montreal in the 80s and 90s. I had shirts like this from Van Halen (both DLR and Sammy Haggar eras!), Deep Purple, AC/DC, April Wine, BTO, Loverboy (yep, no foolin'..it was the 80s!), Smashing Pumpkins, John Mellencamp, U2 (when they were actually cool), The Fixx, The Cramps, The Alarm, Grapes Of Wrath, Tragically Hip, Peter Gabriel…and so many others. Happy days indeed.
