This is the moment you have all been waiting for. We've reached the Finale of Project Mehr and we're going to actually play some guitar. In this video Rick Molloy of Celestial Instruments (viewer, and member of my Discord server) takes my guitar for a test drive. We talk about the overall build quality, test out some tones, and discuss areas that I could improve in my next build.

This has been an insanely long but rewarding journey to get to this point. I just want to say thank you to all the viewers, subscribers, facebook groups, discord and patreon members who helped me see this guitar across the finish line. I honestly couldn't have done it without your help and support. Thank you!
