This is the first guitar I did an epoxy finish on. It had a cracked top that I repaired then did an epoxy resin top on it. This is a video of Jason Porter playing this guitar and below is his review of this guitar. Thanks Jason.

Resin Cap Washburn Dreadnought
By Jason Porter
In the world of unconventional instruments, the resin-top acoustic guitar is among the most
unique. This particular model is an early to mid-1980s Washburn dreadnought. It boasts many
high-end features, such as pearl inlays, Grover die-cast gold tuners, binding along the neck and
body, and a rosewood bridge. The refinished resin cap is a beautiful collage of earth tones, with
swirls of hazel, white, and ocean blues flowing into a deep midnight black.
Tonally, the resin-top Washburn lies between a traditional wood body and a steel-bodied
resonator, delivering extra twang and brightness with plenty of punch. The highlight of this
instrument is its playability. The smooth satin finish and medium C-profile neck make it easy to
keep the licks flowing effortlessly all night long. This vintage resin-top Washburn is one-of-a-kind
and would be the centerpiece of any collection.

I had another shoulder surgery Friday so I had some downtime. I released this song last year but I wasn’t happy with it because the mix sounded muddy. I still have a long way to go with mixing and mastering my songs but I’m getting better. I figured this song is fitting for this time of year.

Here is my new song. This song addresses the struggle we all face with good and evil. I wrote this song to show no one is above this struggle we ALL battle this in some form. I put a lot of work and thought into this from creation to recording it and mixing it. Special thanks to Jason Porter for some tasty lead guitar and Jarod Manis for the drums. All other instruments and vocals is yours truly. This will be on all platforms in the next few days.

What do you do with a guitar that has a broken truss rod and cracked top? You epoxy the top and make it into a wall clock.
