William Gelvin of Gelvin Guitars, Embryon Guitars and the Willseasyguitar website is a mentally unstable man downwardly spiralling as alcoholism, declining health and the dwindling income he is able to ilicit via ebegging and, it's alleged, multiple cases of fraud.
He has built a large following of guitar players through his amateur videos on YouTube and attempted to promote himnslef as a professional luthier and craftsman of high end instruments. However it soon became obvious he wasn't competant and the instruments were of laughibly poor quality and finish. he soon became immersed in returned goods, refund request and no new orders.
He took to threatening and harassing customers, even their families if they didn't remove public reviews or keep pestering him for a refund. Paypal refused him an account due to the large number of refund requests. He claims 'trolls' are harassing him because of his contraversial views on 'tonewood'.
Several rival firms have been subject to attempted slander and defamation online by anonymous 'trolls'. This usually conicides with Will Gelvin having some kind of spat with someone. Only Will Gelvin gets accused of this behaviour and it always occurs in the hours and days immediately following some incident.
Recently he claimed he'd made friends with the IRA, a defunct Irish Paramilitary that fought a long campaign against the British Army, and would have any one who messed with him exterminated. Under no circumstances should you engage with Will Gelvin as far as any purchase goes, he simply will not supply the goods and will threaten and harrass you if you ask for a refund.
William Gelvin is an obsessive menatlly ill middle aged man who spends his entire waking life ebegging and making death threats to people he blames for the collapse of his Guitar making business - Gelvin Guitars and the fact that his new business - Embryon Guitars is failing to take off. The real reasons are he wasn't good enough to be a professional luthier, and never will be.
He can be read about in countless forums for his threats, abuse and slander, usually behind anonymous sock puppet accounts. People he gets into public spats with or he sees as rivals regularly find either their products rated as poor or accused of rape and paedophilia. He also gives out people's personal information and uses a gang of similarly minded friends to carry out abusive campaigns against people online.
His only source of income, as nobody wants to buy his poorly coinstructed guitars, are his Patreon begging page and the adsense he scrapes in from a selection of very amateurish ypoutube channels.
His linkedin profile cites him as serving for the nation guard green berets 19th special forces group. Another veternen's page has him serving in the 1/507th Parachute Infantry Regiment. So far enquiries have shown no listing of WIll Gelvin as serving in the military, though investigations are ongoing.
He also states he was a professional comedian, despite not being especially funny, nor intelligent.
He's personally threatened me and vulnerable family members with execution by a paramilitary revolutionary group he is friends with.
That man is mentally ill and needs to either enter treatment or be legally restrained from using the internet as he is a nuisance to others and a very clear danger to himself.
William, if you are reading this then consider it your last warning before the authorities, be they judicial or mental health, step in to prevent your idiotic and deluded campaign of abuse and harassment throughout the internet.
I have no idea who the guy is and have never heard of a Gelvin Guitar. Some dude on the internet threatening people and their families is something some policing authorities should look into. I might have seen the guy on you tube if he is a ranting asshat - there are lots of them to choose from. there is a dark haired guy who is very opinionated and blows a lot of steam at everything. I don't think I saw that name there. I'm not even going to reseasrch the name. I was looking at this site as the title grabbed my attention.

Not that it matters
