This is honestly a piece of art. A seasoned guitarist with zero woodworking experience, and a seasoned woodworking with zero experience with a guitar. Collaborating. Beautiful to say the very least.
I love that the humbucker is permanently wired as a single coil. Watching the soldering was the most painful part, possibly more painful than the eye gouger fret.
BTW, for anyone curious, you can calculate the distance from the bridge any fret should be with this: scale length/2^(x/12). X is the fret number. Also, you can subtract this result from the scale length to get the distance from the nut. For example, on a 25.5 inch scale guitar, to find the first fret, just type into the calculator 25.5/2^(1/12), and it's about 24.07 inches away from the bridge or 1.43 away from the nut. Anyway, great video!
@@dan_kay this formula is incredibly simple and easy to understand, not sure how you could consider this complicated, unless you failed math in high school lmao
@@KirePlasmaX LOL - you fool. Numbers mean nothing and have only a decorative purpose, and I can explain to you in four languages fluently why that is. But let me guess: You failed Spanish in high school, right? Or German. Or any other language, because you were so busy with your numbers, hm?

"I played guitar for like 8 years before I knew what a truss rod was, I didn't know it was there so I don't think it really matters" Famous final words.
You know, it’s really a testament to the skill of luthiers that it took someone with extremely high woodworking proficiency to build… this. (You can just tell that Rob’s friend is a very talented and capable woodworker.)
The weird thing for me is that this video came up while I was filing the nut for a 7 string that I've been building based on a Kiesel Aries style from watching YOUR videos!! Also while wearing my recently delivered 'Four Levels of Death Metal' Hoody. No joke, Video evidence to prove it. Looking forward to your Thekla gig. Big love for you and Claire.
Finally, a guitar that forces the player to pay attention to finger pressure, not touching the fret ends and most importantly face position! When the audience complains that it sounds dreadful I can proudly say, “Thats because it’s a Sca-Taylor.” T-shirt ordered.

Had my Gibson SG for 15 years, never had to adjust the truss rod since I got it. Come to think of it... I've only had to adjust 1 of my guitars to make it playable.
Simon has such a cool voice for some reason, I'm obsessed with it
Rob detailing all of the ways the Eye Gouger could stab him was way funnier than it should have been.
I was crying
Rob: Basically if I do *anything* this could stab me in the face.
Shark 2.0 bring in a third partner, who's actually a guitar builder, give yourselves 2 days, you guys could come up with something actually amazing. This is as well, but how well you did with so little time, and experience, it'd be rad to see what you could do.
ive been playing guitar for four years. i always put off learning about wiring and the insides because it seemed really intimidating. This video inspired me to build my own very basic guitar.
me too, i like using the router
The wiring in a guitar is literally as simple of a circuit you can get. It's basically just a potentiometer, probably 10k ohms

@@tonyvelasquez6776 for a second I thought you said something else lol
@@spartanguitarist6579 hi deer what r u thinking I'm saying?
one of the funniest videos ive seen in a while reminds me of me and my old buddy building the worst longboards as kids XD thank you for this!!!! 100% would buy!!!
...this is the most metal guitar ever. It will chug, but it will take your blood.
I love how knowledgeable and experienced Simon is, just not quite in the right areas.
Yeah...
It's like asking plumber to do a gas piping work
Edit : high pressure gas piping work
Rob Scallon creates the most metal guitar ever.
Most metal guitar of all time, literally takes a blood sacrafice to play it
Next time Rob plays a normal guitar he's going to have to fight though PTSD just to attempt a slide.
🤣
damn, brian may & his father must have been a megaminds 😂
THIS IS WHY IM HERE-
In a nutshell, yes. I mean, he IS an astrophysicist.
They are fucking geniuses, genuinely.
That's Dr. Brian May, I think you'll find.
He went back to complete his astrophysics doctorate after a short sabbatical... where he was Queen's guitarist for several decades.
While no doubt they were geniuses, they also took like 2 years to build it, rather than 1 day lol
when he said " this is two pieces of wood right? "
i spilled my coffe
I mean he's not wrong
I love how stoked they are when something goes smooth.
This is the kind of team you want in your life
The fact that this makes a single sound is incredible 😂😂
This gave me strong The Office vibe when Michael was making his own company
as a guitar builder seeing them make one in 10 hours is incredibly inspiring. It takes me 6 months lol
I love how the level of effort just drops throughout the video
When Rob was talking about how dangerous the eye gouger is at the end of the video, I absolutely lost it. Funniest thing I've seen in a long time!
That was bloody hilarious 😀. I love the…abomination…they created and the fun they obviously had doing it. Great video.
Eye shish kebab!
It's hard to pick a favourite moment, but the careful pause in the song to get around the lower horn made me cry with laughter.
As a luthier i must say: watching this video was like watching my body been surgically reconfigured without any anesthesia hahah
Just finished watching the entirety of Rob's video with Schecter Guitars and wow........
This video tells a lot.
Great work guys.
