Here is a link to a video of a presentation I did last year on my FP technique. Not the best quality but I explain my method which is different from most everyone else's.

Thanks for the great tutorial! How would you pummel the finish of a guitar though? From what you show on the test panel, it looks like you are hitting it quite hard. Wouldn't that crack the top?


I do that to the guitars as well, just like I did that panel. I am hitting it quite hard, but not hard enough to break anything. It is a feel you need to develop. I think I even mention that I can really pound on furniture a lot harder than a guitar. You will be surprised at how hard you can actually pummel a guitar.
