We're building a guitar for the Austin band The Soldier Thread. We want to film the build process and a performance by the band.
Moniker Guitars is a custom guitar shop in Austin, TX. You can design your Moniker guitar online at MonikerGuitars.com.
WITH YOUR HELP, we hope to raise enough money to film a 5 to 7 minute video for the web.
Here's the concept...
We asked one of our favorite Austin bands, The Soldier Thread, to design a Moniker guitar. We want to show you how we take a guitar design and build it into a finished instrument. Along the way, we'll interview the Soldier Thread and feature their music. We'll take the finished guitar to their concert at the Parish in Austin on June 29th. There, we will show you (and the band) the finished guitar and tape their concert.
We hope to make this the first in a series of videos where we work with up and coming bands and show you how we build new guitars.
We already began filming with Kevin Lindblad (see Gypsy Gentleman series) and the video will be edited by Dennis Warren (Linkin Park, Green Day, etc.)
We've started building the guitar (which already looks amazing thanks to an awesome design from Patricia Lynn) BUT we need help raising funds to finish the project!!
In return we've got some great stuff to offer you as a THANK YOU for your contributions.
