Man, I have to say again, Thank you so much for inviting me to do that first collab. This has become such a great part of my life man. I really live doing this with you. It has exonsded my skill set and made me a better builder. I am forever in your debt. Peace & Love brother!
It’s great for me too my friend, we have some great laughs and it’s definitely pushing me to think about every part of the build because I know you will be!😀👍
I love how the presentation of these builds is evolving. Still a bit hard to keep up with the side by side montage part but I just watch one side. go back watch the other as there are too many things easily missed trying to see both at the same time. I said it before and now again with the thank you for the shout outs for other builders. I was one of the first and I think that shout has really helped me to this day. over 20 new subs and my view counts are steadily growing. MUCH Appreciated. The out takes are funny as well. Picture Todd on set in the middle of the most exciting part of an interview standing up proclaiming You get some templates and YOU get some templates and YOU get some templates as the audience goes wild!! The world needs MOAR!!!
😂 Thanks Bill, we really appreciate it buddy. The side by side is really the only way to keep them to a manageable time frame. I’m so glad the shout out helped, I’m hoping we’ll be able to show your GGBO soon!
Thanks brother! The world need some templates!!🤣 I'm really glad the shout out has helped you! We are going to do many more of these! I hope you continue to enjoy the videos! Peace & Love
This is definitely the best part of my Friday so far!!!! I am always amazed at both of your creativity, designs, thought processes, and craftsmanship!!! Cheers, brothers!
Thanks for the shout out fellas It was 84 pieces, but only two scarves the rest were tiles that were cut And more importantly thanks for chatting about the gbc and the podcast
Thank you so much. We are planning to keep doing these Collab's for the foreseeable future. We have discussed many ideas for future builds and considering how much fun we are having I don't think we'll have any issues doing it many more times! We both appreciate the support! Peace & Love
Oh, what a lovely pair. The two of you are just so addictive. These two guitars are just stunning. I cannot help thinking that the neck should have been bound as well but, hey, a right pair of stunners.😮😮
Thank you Cliff. We bound the fretboards! It was a requirement. I have a plan for my headstock and I don't know that binding the headstock will work with the idea I have! We'll see! I always appreciate your support! Peace & Love
OMG, you guys are just too funny and having way too much fun...lol. The bag of carrots had me cracking up, hey we gotta do whatever it takes to get the job done. What is really interesting in watching you guys build side by side is you have such different building techniques but always come up with great designs. I always enjoy watching you too go back and forth...looking forward to the next video.
Thank you so much for the great comment. We are having a great time and have become such great friends. Doing this together really drives me to do my best work! I love that. Peace and Love
Thanks brother. We have become really great friends and doing this really has made me a better builder. Gio is so meticulous and exact. I have to be on my toes to keep up! I love that
Great collaboration as usual. I really like both of them equally. Thank you both for bringing some happiness and fun into an otherwise stressful day. My kiddo is in the hospital for a 6 hour surgery and you both brightened my day. It was a welcome distraction for a very long wait. The Dr just came out and said everything went well. Keep up the great work! Can’t wait for the live stream Todd! Hopefully I’ll be up in time to catch it live.
Omg......The carrotts had me rolling on the floor. Jeez, I was laughing too much. You have to keep those out takes. Coming. Great builds both. High points were Todd's happy mistakes and Gio,s binding... P&L Brothers. 👍🎸🎸🎸🎸
Thank you brother. I'm so glad you enjoyed the video. We are having so much fun doing these together. We have many of these collaborations planned and I can't wait to do another one! Peace & Love
Hey guys, I must say it's great to watch you both make your beautiful guitars. It almost goes to fast to see you both work at it the same time. Both guitars are pieces of art and the woods are lovely. Can't wait to see them finished and to hear those P90's. Keep up your great work.
Such a cool collab! Both are looking fantastic and would look great on my wall. The guitars are pretty cool as well 🤣) Gio, awesome as ever. As you know I'm a sucker for your offsets and ! The sound hole is beautifully understated and flows beautifully. I'm with both of you on the traditional 'f' hole. Frozen carrots?! 🤣@SweetTGuitars That centre maple looks awesome Todd, especially with the neck and headstock. Looks like it was your plan all along instead of a happy accident. And with the black hardware - kaboom! Great reference for a fix too. Really pleased you gave Corey a shout out. Incredible, creative builder and just a great guy. His GGBO neck is bonkers - and he made a test version before it! Have you seen his Jurgs fret markers? 🤣
🤣 Yes I have seen his Jurgs cup fret markers! And I agree, he’s a great guy. Thanks once again Jamie, I really appreciate your comments and support and your GGBO is looking great too, I really like what you’ve done with the design for your build. 👍
Love both of these guitars so much!!! The attention to detail and craftsmanship always astounds me gents. And love to see you too flirting at the end... 😂
You guys are killing it. Both guitars are amazing, and represent the different styles you have. In a very complimentary way, congratulations. I liked the way Todd use a rattle can paint to define the outside of the body, nice trick. Peace and long life! 🖖
Thanks for the great video again guys - Gio that Limba is beautiful and Todd as Gio said you have the best guitar back ever, can't wait to see finish on these - Cheers from Canada
Great video again guys! Gio that guitar looks amazing, i love how the body and the neck have matching binding, and that fretboard and top look amazing together, its probably my fav guitar ive seen you build so far! Todd another killer build as well, its interesting to see how you overcame an issue and turned it into a stripe running across the top which looks awesome when you showed it with the neck, also pleased to hear your picking up new skills with binding, bound guitars are where its at ;) ! Looking forward to seeing how they are both finished. Can i please request hearing a sound demo at the end of the finished builds this time :D ?
Thank you for the kind comment and yes, We will be doing a sound demo. We both have been so busy that we haven't had time to get the strat demo done but even that one is coming. We both appreciate the support! Peace & Love
I love both of the ideas for the sound holes. I think they are both fantastic. The choice of woods are both beautiful. What bugs me is people complaining that there are no new body shapes. That everyone is programmed to only build traditional guitars. That does not make sense to me when I see you both design guitars like this. I can't wait to see them done.
Thanks for the kind comment Sean. We both try to make original designs, it’s more interesting than making reproductions but you’re right I do see comments in the latest review vids saying ‘why are there no new guitar designs anymore’, but I guess it will be a while before our vids get out to the masses! 🤣
Thank you brother. We are both trying to come up with at least somewhat unique designs and doing this together is really pishing us to do our best work. I'm glad you enjoyed the video. Peace & Love
Hey guys, not easy to watch you working at the same time, l’m a bit old, but man, your job is so great, beautiful guys, and really love your positivity!
I know it's a little difficult to watch the montage in one go. I found it best to watch one side at a time😂 thank you for your support. We're having such fun doing this together and we both really do love that the videos are enjoyable! ✌️🤍
Thank you so much. We are having so much fun doing this and I can't speak for Gio but this drives me to be as creative as I know how to be! I'm sure he feels the same. I love it! Peace & Love
Awesome work as always guys. I like the way you use these series to push each other to try new things. Also, I've done the same thing as Todd for my GGBO, only using different woods for the stripe and body. Mine was intentional though. It was inspired by the Yamaha Revstar. I like the racing stripe paint finishes they do on some models and wanted to replicate that effect with wood.
Another great video from UA-cams newest double act 😂, keep it up guys, oh, and those are two beautiful guitars, theyre gonna be awesome with finish on them 👏
This was a great video - I'm only sorry I'm seeing it now 4 days later due to a short holiday. Gio's choice of woods is great, the contrast binding is beautiful. And Todd, great to see your sc-fi take on the soundhole(s), unique for sure. I also loved how you marked out the template outline with a paint shadow, clever! Looking forward to seeing both of you bring the next video out and how these beautiful guitars come together.
Great looking guitars both of you...Todd I love that maple strip through the body, it marries up beautifully with the neck✌️😃, and Gio I'll be up to have a play on yours soon👍😃 looks stunning
Todd and Gio, those are looking fantastic! Let's bind those headstocks as well! Bound Body, Neck and Headstock would be absolutely killer! Can't wait to see the finished guitars. How long before you loose a pick in one of the Astrolab holes!?!
Thanks Bill. We're debating the headstock binding but I've got plans for mine that I don't think binding will fit the look. We'll see. It won't be long before the finish goes on! I'm glad you like the guitars and I hope you enjoyed the video! Peace & Love
Awesome builds guys, sorry Todd but Gio's is just pipping you although with the neck in it does bring it all together and that book matched back is killer 👍✌️
I almost agree with you brother 😂 his is absolutely awesome. I like what building with Gio does for my style though. It always pushes me to try new things and to push the limits of my knowledge. He definitely keeps me on my A game!!✌️🤍
@@SweetTGuitars lol, it's only just, that black pearl binding really sets it off. Yours is awesome too and I'm enjoying watching your colabs, keep them coming
@@barrychristian4050 you know, I said to Gio, "I wonder if I should have used black binding 😂" I think the white will look great once I get some finish on it !!
Wait - does frozen carrots work to prevent camera overheating?! 😂 I might need to use that. We have like a 110 heat index here right now (43C), and it's horrible. My camera is not enjoying garage work.
@TornelliGuitars yeah, it's like hell, only more humid. One acre of corn can release up to 4000 gallons of water into the atmosphere each day. And here in Iowa, we have about 13 million acres of corn. So it's hot, but swampy too.
You guys are talking like you're in the deep south! 😂😂😂 You want to talk about humid.... Pay Sweet T a visit and I'll show you humid😂 Thank you Jackson!! ✌️🤍
We both use Makita trim routers and I use a Ryobi Pillar drill. I'm not sure what Gio has but it looks way nicer than mine! I've also got a Rigid Trim Router and a big Triton router in my router table. I'm glad you enjoyed the videos and we're both always glad to pass on any info that may be helpful to anyone! Peace & Love

This is definitely the best part of my Friday so far!!!! I am always amazed at both of your creativity, designs, thought processes, and craftsmanship!!! Cheers, brothers!
Thanks once again for the support and kind comment, I’m glad you’re enjoying it my friend!👍
Thank you brother. it's nice to know that we can have that effect by doing something we both love!! ✌️🤍
Thanks for the shout out fellas
It was 84 pieces, but only two scarves the rest were tiles that were cut
And more importantly thanks for chatting about the gbc and the podcast
Thanks for all you efforts sharing all our stuff Corey!👍
Thank you Corey for inspiring us all to be better builders! I love your work brother. Peace & Love
The design and craftsmanship on both guitars is mind blowing, i hope you guys do this again! The serendipitous maple strip and neck looks awesome!.
Thank you so much. We are planning to keep doing these Collab's for the foreseeable future. We have discussed many ideas for future builds and considering how much fun we are having I don't think we'll have any issues doing it many more times! We both appreciate the support! Peace & Love

Love the banter in the beginning. It's like you guys grew up together.
Thanks my friend, we have a great time doing these!👍
This is such an interesting collab, especially with the obvious fun you two are having!I'm loving both builds. Keep it up, guys!
Thanks brother. We have become really great friends and doing this really has made me a better builder. Gio is so meticulous and exact. I have to be on my toes to keep up! I love that

I’m really sorry to hear that Dave, I hope everything goes well my friend. 🤞
As usual, pushing boundaries. And I do love happy mistakes- that curly maple insert looks killer! A great way to start my weekend
Thanks Tim once again!👍 and yes that maple looks great!
Thank you. The maple saved me and I really do love how it looks. I'm so gald you enjoyed the video! Peace & Love

it was a bit like watching a tennis match for a bit but i enjoyed it. nice looking guitars.
Guitars are looking fantastic. I'm taking notes for a future build lol
Thanks brother. Man, I absolutely love your GGBO build. What a guitar brother. Peace & Love
Thanks Niel, I’ve just watched your final vid, if my limba comes out anything like yours I’ll be a happy man!👍
@TornelliGuitars oil based polyurethane gives mine that perfect tint.
I found without it it looks a bit pale in places.
Awesome builds guys, sorry Todd but Gio's is just pipping you although with the neck in it does bring it all together and that book matched back is killer 👍✌️
I almost agree with you brother 😂 his is absolutely awesome. I like what building with Gio does for my style though. It always pushes me to try new things and to push the limits of my knowledge. He definitely keeps me on my A game!!✌️🤍

That may be the first time someone picked mine!😂 thanks my friend, and yes that book match is killer!
One more tool question for Todd, what is the best size bandsaw blade for cutting out the body and neck?
Wait - does frozen carrots work to prevent camera overheating?! 😂 I might need to use that. We have like a 110 heat index here right now (43C), and it's horrible. My camera is not enjoying garage work.
😂 Yes it works really well! Wow it’s actually hotter there than it is here!
@TornelliGuitars yeah, it's like hell, only more humid. One acre of corn can release up to 4000 gallons of water into the atmosphere each day. And here in Iowa, we have about 13 million acres of corn. So it's hot, but swampy too.

Great work guys. Just a quick question, what trim router and press/pillar drill do you both use? Many thanks.
We both use Makita trim routers and I use a Ryobi Pillar drill. I'm not sure what Gio has but it looks way nicer than mine! I've also got a Rigid Trim Router and a big Triton router in my router table. I'm glad you enjoyed the videos and we're both always glad to pass on any info that may be helpful to anyone! Peace & Love
Thanks my friend, as Todd said we both use the Makita router, my drill press is a Fervi radial column drill!👍
That wenge back is awfully purdy
