  8. The finishing touches will be a string retainer for the two lowest strings and some nice pickups. I chose the #BareKnuckle True Grit for the neck and Brute Force for the bridge. Not gonna install the myself though, I'll leave this to the pros.

  10. Modern #Karate is ruined by the Olympics and other Karate competition rules. Karatekas now use only some form of fencing #stance and attack and retreat in a one-dimensional manner all because of the one-hit rule. If you have to hit until your opponent goes down, you will never use the fencing stance. In a #bareknuckle #Kyokushin competition, you don't see people using the fencing stance. Instead most stand like a wrestler with a lot of lateral movements. #martialart
