Hi all,
Our cable provider, Rogers, has a fabulous documentary, "Carmine Street Guitars" currently showing among what they call Crave selections. It's nestled in between HBO and its offerings. If you get HBO, you might find it among all the movies they show.
It's about a solid body electric guitar building business in lower Manhattan. The owner has great insight into marketing - he uses wood from old buildings in his Greenwich Village neighbourhood. The movie shows, with a lot of respect, the various people that stop in to chat, his relationship with his apprentice and his neighbourhood.
If you're into luthiery, and the social impact woodworking businesses can have on their communities, you might enjoy this.
