Introduction and questions

[Drjay]

Hi
I am a returning forum member who built a guitar a couple of years ago and was helped a lot by the kind members of this forum.
I now am involved in some research about craftwork and I am using guitar building as a case study. Can anyone tell me how many members there are on this forum and how many hand builders of guitars (estimates will do)?
Also can any body estimate how many guitar builders there are globally? Big questions but estimates would be useful.
Best
