Matching the neck to the guitar body is a perfect metaphor for matching the brand to the individual behind it. Be known for something. Nick is! Thanks for bringing his work to the masses.
Watching this made my day, man! No one could have done a better rundown on Sugi Guitars and Nick Sugimoto than you. Was fortunate enough to visit Nick and his staff at the shop back in 2020. He is a super down-to-earth individual who makes some of the best instruments on the planet.
It was great seeing and hearing my old friend Nick in this video. I learned more from him in one year about guitars and guitar repair to be more specific than the other 65 yrs I've been around. Hopefully, many will see this video and become more aware of the master craftsman.
That’s great to hear. I learned a lot during our filming days too. It’s such a fascinating process, and Nick totally has a sixth sense for making great instruments. It’s very cool to see.
What a story of vision, artistry, determination and wisdom. These instruments are masterpieces created by a collective of excellence from the wood to the individuals who bring them to life. Amazing story all the way to the last second. Ho did Mr. Sugimoto get interested in guitars in the first place? Does he play?
Thanks so much! He plays a little, but I don’t think he has time to practice very much to be honest. Ah I should have put this in the video, but his father and mother both worked in the guitar business.
Hi I stumbled across you on UA-cam and I gotta say, I really like "The Bucci List" on your channel/videos. I specialize in helping UA-camrs just like you get more views by editing high-retention short videos. I can cut your long videos and convert them into short videos. And of course, different effects will be given in short videos. And that will be interesting to watch. I have a few ideas for your videos and would love to share them with you. mind hopping on a call so I can walk you through them. Sadik.
@Shockwave_App Great question. Nick used to work at the fender custom shop. And when Jaco was in Japan, he severely damaged his fender bass and Nick had to rebuild it. I believe fender called him.

This is so well put. I totally agree, he definitely puts his soul into his work.

Thanks so much for watching, and for the kind words here! I totally agree, Nick is such a great guy, and his instruments are absolutely world class.

What a great find! Beautiful guitars and such a wealth of knowledge and experience. The video does a great job of capturing this relationship.
Thanks so much for watching!
Awesome job on this on Anthony! His guitars are beautiful.
Thanks so much man! Really means a lot. Totally agree, they feel like works of art
This is such a great video! I knew next to nothing about guitars and now I’ve walked away with some pretty cool knowledge. Definitely going to share!
Thanks so much! Really appreciate it.

Makes sense. Thank you for that information.
My pleasure!
Did he ever share any thoughts about what it was like to work on his own compared to some of the custom shops at Fender or Ibanez?
Great question. I think he enjoyed the freedom of his own shop, but definitely had nice things to say about both of the others.

Rock on 🤘
Yes sir! Thanks for watching 🙏🏻😃

What is the price point for the most basic guitar they make?
@@eugee61422 since every guitar is a custom order, it’s hard to tell. But I think around 3.5k-4k US for a new guitar on the simpler side.
How did Jaco Pastorius play his instrument if he started in 2002 and Jaco died in 1987?
