WHATS ON THE BENCH #08 | Inside the Workshop: Stunning Custom Guitars & Basses in Progress

Welcome back to What's on the Bench! ????
In this episode we take you through the workshop to see what our students and team have been working on—from PRS-inspired builds to Jazzmasters, Les Pauls, Flying Vs, and some truly unique bass designs. You'll also get a peek at setup courses, hear from students about their experiences, and of course… the all-important biscuit debate.

If you love guitars, woodworking, or just seeing passionate builders bring instruments to life, this week’s bench has something for you.

???? Drop your favourite biscuit or Quality Street pick in the comments!
