We first visited Ben Crowe at Crimson Guitars, based in
Dorset in the UK, in early 2014. At that time, Ben was pretty much flat out getting
his fledgling specialist custom guitar business off the ground. His infectious
mix of enthusiasm, passion for his craft and commitment to spreading the word
with a relentless social media schedule was difficult to resist.
A couple of years on and this dedicated #MasterofWood has
grown his business making guitars and a line of specialist luthiers tools for
building and repairing string instruments. He also trains and educates his
growing team of talented luthiers and apprentices, plus the wider fan base that
follow him on YouTube.
We thought it was time to catch up again with Ben and see
where Crimson Guitars have got to two years on. The transformation is truly
impressive.
