Archtop Guitar Build - Wood Binding and Contours
In this video, I demonstrate the intricate process of bending curly maple binding around a form to achieve a snug fit on our Grasshopper Archtop guitar. This step is crucial for ensuring the perfect aesthetic and structural integrity of the instrument. Using curly maple with a black purfling strip, I'll show you my process from start to finish of binding an archtop guitar top.
Additionally, I'll walk you through the steps to add a forearm contour, enhancing both the playability and comfort of the guitar. This process takes time and patience! So sit back, relax, and enjoy the immersive sounds of the shop as we bring this beautiful instrument to life.

      It's the best way to attach hardwood binding. Instant results and you don't end up with a glue joint that continues to sink for years!

      Thank you! CA glue and a notched block is the best way.... People will tell you otherwise because they don't understand the technique. its a tough and frustrating learning curve compared to tite bond and tape. But especially on highly figured woods, CA glue all the way! On top of a ultra strong bond, the results are instant, and you can move on in your work flow rather than waiting for titebond to dry and sink your finish over time

I wanted to ask you for a video suggestion for the next video.. how about making a Fodera emperor 5-string bass!?? It's very easy to find a photo of it on Google and have it enlarged to size 53-52x34-32cm.. Agreed?!! Then just make a perfect finish on the edges... get to work?!!

    • @rexradar9297
      @rexradar9297 2 місяці тому

      ​@onemintjulep actually imp. would be superior if it was base 12. But it is not. Inches for rough work are measured typically in 16ths. Occasionally 32nds or 64ths. Precision work is measured in 1,000ths or even 10,000ths of an inch. Feet are commonly measured in 12ths, but maybe measured in other units. Neither metric nor imperial is better for singular measurements, as the both deliver very simular precision, accuracy and repeatability. However metric is superior when it comes to complex multi unit calculations as all units for temps, pressure, mass, distance etc are in the same base 10 regardless of the measurement scale. It's why the vast majority of the world uses it, including the USA for scientific and most mass production purposes. That said had metric could have been even better if it had been base 12 or even base 20 as originally intended.
