This is a guitar shop.. It's located in the piney woods of East Texas and belongs to Steve Kinnaird. The shop is upstairs. The downstairs could house cars but in this case it holds lots of cool wood and a few big power tools. The cars sit outside, which works since it almost never rains.
Steve is a world class builder of guitars. I like the idea that world class guitars come from small out-of-the-way shops like this. I think it's a form of reverse snobbery
Steve is on the right holding a guitar neck. Ryan is on the left. Ryan works in the shop and does the math. Both are excellent luthiers and it is a lot of fun talking shop with these two guys.
I love busy functional places like this. I want to start a series of jigsaw puzzles called "shops"
Imagine this image cut into 1000 pieces.
