    The only thing i don't like is that when they put the primer, sealer, wood stain, lacquer, it kills the tone of the wood. For best performance of a guitar, just add paint and add some rubbing compound to make it shine.

    @JTNickelz I happen to be the proud owner of an Ibanez Ventura electric/acoustic with a bottom cutaway and it is one of the best guitars I've ever owned. I have an Epiphone Les Paul and currently have my eye on 3 Gibson Les Pauls. I have and probably never will modify them other than a string change or a good disassemble-clean-reassemble. I hope that you can understand.

    It's a Godin Pay attention. It shows them putting on the logo, and it goes on the body, not headstock. Gibson puts it on the headstock, like most companies.

    this might be how to make a guitar, but any guitar where the head is a different piece from the neck (at 2:32) is a really cheap guitar!

  • @UEtke745
    @UEtke745 16 років тому +1

    The terms "fretboard" and "fingerboard" are interchangeable, with the latter actually being the more technical term. Fingerboard is more appropriate in some respects as it the term of choice by most, if not all, major guitar manufacturers. Also, there are fretless basses and guitars. Though fretless guitars are considerably less common than fretless basses, they have been utilized by the likes of Steve Vai, Frank Zappa, and Pat Methany to name a few.

  • @RibeyeJohnny
    @RibeyeJohnny 13 років тому

    @LaMarche7 That was my first year of playing the guitar, the fretboard and the neck were the same thing to me. Sorry to offend you, perfectionist.

  • @karnivorx
    @karnivorx 11 років тому +1

    Anything you do to a guitar will have an effect on its sound, wood included. It's just that the tonal difference in wood on a solid body electric is very minimal compared to the electronics.

    emgs sound great. its not the pickups that ibanez is getting wrong. but what range? high end ibanez are very nice. but they equate to a mid range schecter. also, back in the 80s, other great brands we know today didnt have a standing at the time. gibson was the safe way to go. but put humbuckers in a fender and it sounds almost the same through the same amp. which was always marshall. lastly, what do you consider flashy? to me that would be a dean razorback or a bc rich warlock

  • @RibeyeJohnny
    @RibeyeJohnny 13 років тому

    @MrOzMendez No, I'm saying that part 1 of a video is just part 1. You said only part of a guitar is being made, but that's because the video isn't exactly finished, as obviously stated by the terms "Part 1" and "Part 2." Your criticism is faulty.

  • @jaywhy007
    @jaywhy007 11 років тому

    I pluck the string, the string will make the body (and neck) vibrate. The body will enhance certain frequencies - or mute some, depends how you see it - and with its own vibration "feedback" on the string so it may or may not ring for longer (depending on original frequency of the played string(s) and what kind of "EQ" the wood provides). The pickup picks up what is left. It's all instant, but this is how I believe it works.

    If you play unplugged on your electric guitar, and gently touch the headstock against a table, wall, or something that will resonate you will hear a distinct difference in tone. Louder and very often nasal (maybe it's all the IKEA furniture...)

    i work at a shipping dock here in northern Ga Close to Tennessee where gibson ships from. I constantly load GIBSON USA guitars daily to and from China and Nashville. They are ASSEMBLED in china. Materials from the USA. And first of all, Ibanez is known for using MANY DIFFERENT BRIDGES. That includes floyd rose, licensed floyd rose, hardtail, etc. When was the last time you saw a gibson with a floyd rose? never. Many of Ibanez Bridges are considered equal to FRs. Gibsons were great 30 years ago.

    hey does anyone know where to get 2 part acrylic lacquer. I can find poly, and nitrocellulose but there is an acrylic finish that dries in 2 hours and i can't seem to find it. by the way that blue guitar in the beginning of the clip has no finger inlays except one.

  • @RibeyeJohnny
    @RibeyeJohnny 12 років тому +1

    @metachozoite Also, try playing two different guitars. One by the First Act brand. One by Fender. You'll notice on the First Act that the intonation is impossible to fix due to poor measurement and anything above the 6th fret will sound flat and out of tune. You'll notice that the tuning pegs spin on their own. You'll notice that it just sounds ugly. On the Fender, depending on the model, the the only problem you might have is intonation and that can be fixed in a matter of minutes.

    That's great but Ibanaz is used for metal music I would say and that great to have a guitar for every style, but it's better to have a instrument made for one type of music that the user can play, that's just my opinion, cause two of my favorite metal guitarist use Ibanaz and I think it sounds really great.

  • @sixstringfretter
    @sixstringfretter 13 років тому

    Why do they take a board that is the width of a guitar already, cut it, then dry it, then glue it, then dry it again? Why not just use a solid peice of wood? Not only would it be stronger and glueless, but it would eleminate an extra two months of dry time. They all do it, so there must be a good reason. Does anyone know it?

    • @defectivetoaster7713
      @defectivetoaster7713 4 роки тому +1

      In the 20s electric guitars were just acoustics with pickups out in, then up until 1932 they were archtop hollowbodies with pickups, and by 1932 the telecaster was released, quickly followed by the les Paul, both of which were fully solid

  • @RibeyeJohnny
    @RibeyeJohnny 12 років тому

    @metachozoite I understand where you're going with this, but you're not entirely correct. Some guitars are absolutely brilliant - high end pickups, resilient wood, flawless neck shape, etc. You also have to know how to maintain its value and how well it can be played. A buzzing string isn't always the guitarist's fault. It can be a manufacturing error (uneven fretting, faulty bridge, etc). While it's true that you need to play well to sound good, you also need to have a feasible instrument.

  • @XeroJager
    @XeroJager 13 років тому +1

    @Shrieken213 False as shit. You can do anything with any guitar, doesn't matter what it is. As for sounding better? Depends on the hardware/wood the guitar is made with. Gibsons are generally made of mahogany (les paul, flying v, explorer, etc etc) which have good resonance, no doubt, but shit, they are a bit overpriced as balls. I'll stick to a Ibanez RG with some bare knuckle pickups.

  • @sixstringfretter
    @sixstringfretter 12 років тому +1

    No, it does not. You think all the guitar manufacturers are going to do something that adversely affects the tone? The guitar body has strategically placed bare areas that allow the wood to breath and age properly. The primer, sealer and lacquer have no effect on the tone whatsoever. Look at the EVH Wolfgang and tell me Eddie doesn't know what he's doing. Your misinformed friend.

    At the same time I don't think it's worth spending loads of money on the best wood, as you can't guarantee a result before the guitar is done. The best looking flamed maple might not be the best sounding one. For sure, different people got different ears and won't agree on what sounds best.

  • @contortionistfan9706
    @contortionistfan9706 12 років тому

    I don't have to film or show you anything. You can call and ask gibson representatives themselves. And having to "look very hard" for a gibson having a floyd rose secures and validates my point. They hardly use them. I can walk to my nearest music shop and find crappy 120$ ibanez guitars with all types of bridges. I'd have to "look hard" to find a gibson with a floyd.

Ibanez is what started badass paint jobs anyway. Before charvel, bofore Esp, before anybody. A lot of times, people that want a guitar that sounds and plays well prefer an ibanez. Low action, smooth necks, lightweight, WIDE variety, 6,7,8 strings, etc. Gibson is for country dudes.
