The Razorback - Roughing out the body

Roughing out the body of the "Razorback" a semi-hollow body telecaster type guitar. I was originally going to use solid sapelle back for the entire body, but when I glued the body blank up, I realized; Sapelle is really, really heavy. Even with a maple top, it was going to be a beast. So, I made the executive decision to go for a semi-hollow build. We will lose the belly and arm reliefs I was going to carve in, but I have a surprise in mind for the finished guitar...

In any case, I wanted to hog out the cavities with the drill press before routing, to save a ton of work.

This is my first attempt at actually editing a video (actually a shorter version of the 9 minute video, I posted earlier), as opposed to just filming a guitar build, so let me know in the comments what you think.

Please follow and like, it is super important, so I can continue to bring you new content.
