<p></p> <p>I am so excited to share this with you, I just had to make a video about it! This is the easiest way EVER to make a vintage guitar. The process involves torrefaction which is like smoking meat: drying out the wood but at high temperatures instead of low ones (yes, that's what smoking does too!).</p> <p> </p> <p>★ Learn more about starting your Guitar Journey: https://tonypolecastro.com/ ★ FOLLOW on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/tac.guitar/</p> <p> </p> <p>Torrefaction produces an authentic-looking finish that feels and sounds like old-growth timber. I couldn't believe how simple it was when I saw the pictures and heard the results.</p> <p> </p> <p>On today's episode of Acoustic Tuesday, you're going to have the chance to evaluate whether this simple technique can create an instant vintage-sounding guitar.</p> <p> </p> <p>By using this rapid-aging technique, luthiers have been able to create guitars that sound almost identical to some of the most universally loved guitars: prewar Martins and Gibsons.</p> <p> </p> <p>Once we're done discussing torrefaction, you'll get to hear about TAC Family member Jo and her guitar journey.</p> <p> </p> <p>Last but certainly not least, I'll fill you in on some of the latest guitar geek news and announcements.</p> <p></p>
