When Jimmy ‘Cobra’ Carbonetti is not touring with his renowned rockband Caveman, he is usually in his East Village, New York workshop, crafting beautiful custom-made guitars, and sharing the process through Instagram at @carbonettiguitars.

“I cut all of my own wood and wind all of my own pick ups… also spray all my own lacquer paint,” says Jimmy. “Instagram has been an amazing platform to show my work.”

Follow along at @carbonettiguitars as Carbonetti sketches, cuts, chisels and sands his one-of-a-kind instruments out of raw materials.
