"Just as if they were real musical instruments"

<< < (2/2)

Alanko:
It looks like there is no sealer on the primed body the chap sprays red. It looks like grain under the pickguard area on the treble side?

The model being buffed at the end almost looks like it is going into a display, given the different models in different finishes in the background in what looks like a purposefully displayed setup. I imagine they would make all the red-burst Marquees on Monday, all the green-burst ones on Tuesday or something like that. The ingrained snobbery and subtle whimsy of the video seems in line with other Pathe reports I've seen from this era; as though they are trying to present the subject as some microcosm or curio with no bearing on the outside world. Quite endearing.

I like the guy driving the fretboard home with a balled fist, having first aligned it by eye. You see the fretboard detach briefly at the nut end from the force.

Dave W:
I think the narrator may have been spoofing snobbery.

Basvarken:
Of course. It's British humor!

Rob:
I like the painter's left hand.
