You had me with "Relaxing blues music" which I absolutely love. I really do need to learn to play guitar.
The best no talking skill skill that's it !👍👍👍
:)
Absolutely Gorgeous, the gold hardware against the walnut body, nectk & head make this guitar pop. Sick
I adore natural walnut bodies. The gold hardware and amber position markers set it off beautifully. I'm really impressed with the work you did without some of the standard table machines. Really enjoyed this build video. Keep up the great work!
This is the first time I have seen your build, I sit here realizing I'm tired of buying and selling my guitars from dissatisfaction always believing it's that particular guitar from the manufacture that I prefer being Fender Stratocaster I recently heard another custom built Walnut Strat and the tone was the sound zi seek and un able to get, tried a few amps and again just frustrated with the sound I'm looking for. I loved your selection of background music seems your a man of few words at least from this video, I like your work, thank you
Hi Doug, thank you so much. One thing I've learnt over the years of playing around with guitars is that the wood type on an electric guitar makes very little to no difference of tone. From my experience it always comes down to the player, the setup of the guitar, the pickups and the amp. I think people love the sound of strats because of the single coil pickups. I'm working on a custom stray style build at the moment and can't wait to get it finished :)

Even having been told for years that wood doesn't = tone on electrics with a beauty like that one it does make you wonder. But I will say relaxing no lol I was a nervous wreck. Lol What a prize. Congrats. G
@@morganoguitars2213 hi iam emad from egypt can you help me with printed file to mack the body and neck and templats >>>i know it is stubid question but
Awesome build, enjoyed watching!
Thank you very much, I appreciate that :)
I love how you did the contours with an electric hand drill and sanding discs!
Yeh it worked out great and was much faster and smoother than filing in my opinion :)
Damn, it has a lot of sustain 😍
I'm really happy with it's sound, thank you :)
Amazing job, fantatisc sound.
Wow. I love the color of the body.
The music is beautiful....as is the guitar...
Thanks Robert :)

Being a Blues player kept me thru your Build, in the end would luv to own that guitar the HB's scream👍💯

That's a killer beautiful guitar!!!! I'd be proud to play on one. I love the 3 ply body choices and the gold hardware. The headstock is awesome too.

So cool... love to see a skilled craftsman at work. Excellent video.
Thank you very much :)
As a rule I don't dig Gold bling on guitars, but this is a Jewel for sure, and a voice to match it's looks...
You should be very proud 👊
I definitely contemplated doing the gold many times before the build. I was worried it might be a bit over the top but I'm very happy with the result :) thank you
Enjoyed watching the build. Very relaxing. Beautiful guitar. Thanks for sharing the video. :)
Hi Reid, thank you very much. I really appreciate it :)

Nice! I'm a career woodworker and musician. Walnut is my fav to work with. The detail I really liked, is the oval fret markers. Nice touch!

Very beautifull video...

Awesome vid bro! Would be an honor to jam that beautiful guitar. Great great job!
Thank you so much :)
I put my cup of tea and watched the video from start to finish, it was more relaxing than Chopin :)) Great job, clean and neat
Well done
Thank you very much Amer. I'm glad you liked it :)
HOW MUCH !!!!!! LOVE IT
Thank you Lee. I probably wouldn't sell this one but I'd build another one if someone wanted one :)
No words !
I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing but thank you for watching nonetheless haha :)
Congratulations
Thank you :)
I would like to have a guitar like that I admire this work Brazil
Excelente linda de mais...
Blackmachine body! Nice body
Yep :) I based the template off that. It was a little different by the end but I loved that shape to begin with :)
Badass!
Thanks Mike! :)
Fantastic ❤️🙌🏻🙋🏻♂️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Thank you Erick :)
nice strung bracelet, got the same one
Thanks :) unfortunately it broke the other day :( I'll have to get another one
Majestic! But in my taste would be another headstock
Thanks :)
That is amazing. I would love to do project like this but always wonder if I would be able to get the neck adjustment right. Is there a way to start training to do project like this? Maybe assemble a warnoth guitar already cut and prepared before starting from scratch?
Maybe books as well that would be useful?
Thank you.
Of note I like to work with wood but I’m not a orofessional.
Fabulous build and hardware choices. Wonder about the weight of the guitar
How much does a guitar like this cost?
$500-$1,000+
Lol, more than that. There is nearly $1000 just in hardware alone.
Loved this! Bridge pickup ring is upside down tho
Thank you :) I know, they're both upside down. I tried it both ways and just preferred the look of the rings being that way because it looks nicer when it follows the string angle. It also means when I adjust the pickup height, that they are on a similar angle to the strings. Just a personal preference on this one I guess :)
Dammit, now I have to learn how to wood work AND how to play guitar.
Very nice job! Curious what you used and did to create the gold letter for the headstock.
Thanks Jim :) I cut the sticker on a vinyl cutter with some gold vinyl and then once it was stuck on the black basecoat on the headstock, it was cleared over with some gloss clearcoat. I unfortunately didn't record a lot of that part.
Awesome construction technique and final result!!! I'd love to try one!! Just one suggestion: for the final test video be sure the guitar is properly tuned....!!
Thank you :) yes, good point haha. I kind of rushed the ending part where I played it and was still halfway through setting everything up
@@morganoguitars2213 I'd love to try one!! Is it possible?? Where are you located??
I am located in Melbourne, Australia :)
@@morganoguitars2213 unfortunately definitely too far away from Italy.....!!!! :)
Really like this combo of wood and hardware. Do you think matching frets would've been too overboard?
Beautiful body, love how the maple contrast with the walnut. Was the neck purchased?
Ok, so now I want to make my own guitar. I’m sick of buying guitars and over hauling them. You did a great job. I hope to make one of my own someday soon.
so coll look and styl🙃
Thank you Pawel :)
but i love the work on this video
Thank you :)
Magnifique !
Du teck ou kapur ?
It is American Walnut and Queensland Maple :)
Buenos entrenamientos Para jovenes
Thanks :)
Looks like you have the neck pickup ring backwards, the high side should be facing the bridge?
There really is no wrong or right way up as it depends on the body shape and curvature. I placed it that way so that it adjusts up and down evenly at the same angle as the strings :)
Fine looking instrument. I would've just added a layer or 2 of gloss to the body imo.
Thank you, yeh I really thought about that a lot but in the end decided I liked just having a light sheen on it :)
Where did you get the magnets for the electronics compartment cover?
I got them on eBay :)
How much would a guitar from you run? I have an extremely low budget
What did you think of the tried and true on the neck?
I am not sure but guitar body does not have a protective layer. Do you know how strong these unpainted guitars performs in terms of durability? Do they scratch easier than multiple coated guitars? I am not experienced with guitars, I am just curious.
Where did you find the body template?
man all that work i will put stain steel frets and evertune bridge
I actually was originally going to go with brass/gold frets to match the theme but didn't do it. The Schaller bridge I used is awesome though, no problems with it at all
Where do you buy the Electric components?
Classy beautiful and sexy guitar.
So where did you buy the neck? Or did you build it?
It was a Strat style blank neck I had laying around. I just did some custom shaping to it. I still might make a custom neck for this guitar but I actually really like the one that's on there now so I might just leave it :)
Que guitarra más bonita y como suena, es preciosa,es como me gustan a mi. A mis sesenta y pico años, me compré una estratocaster barata nueva por 145 euros, negra y blanca, sin saber tocarla y todavía sigo igual . Las clases las tengo muy lejos y por youtu.be no hay manera.🤷♂️
Thank you Vicente :)
What is the finish you were wiping onto the neck?
It is the same stuff I used on the body. It's called Tried and True and it's very similar to Tru Oil. It's a great finish because it doesn't change the colour of the wood, it just makes it look deeper and adds a slight shine to it :)
I like it. Its beautiful.
Congratulations and succese.
Where I can write you.
Thank you very much :)
Great build. But i prefer guitar without the pickup mounting ring.
Ola meu amigo luthie, sou brasileiro. Como q eu posso adquirir esse produto q sela o braço e o corpo da guitarra?
The oil? It's called Tried and True and I got it from StewMac
Immediately clicked subscribe when saw that auto battery land there...!
Haha thank you :)
Black and Decker Workmate?
The clamping workbench? It's an Ozito one from memory. Really cheap but works well
I want one like this?
If you're really interested, I could build you one?
@@morganoguitars2213 have.whatsapp to text thrre or wehere?
@@haos22 I have WhatsApp. If you like send me an email at mrgano5@gmail.com and I can give you my WhatsApp there :)
Hi! I'm Living In Belarus. How Much This Guitar?
Hi there :) I am in Australia. It is not for sale but if you were really interested. I could build you one and ship it to you :)
@@morganoguitars2213 Hello. Thanks for the information. I really like that. what are you doing. It's about the price. If it's very expensive, then I won't be able to pay. I am 52 years old and have been playing guitar for 40 years.
Should have veneered the headstock. Otherwise, nice work
What song is that called
Which one?
@@morganoguitars2213 the last song at the end bro that was hard man💯💯💯 what's the name of it
@@sergioramirez9025 It's this one here but the instrumental version: ua-cam.com/video/1m0vTRNTT9c/v-deo.html - It's such a good song, I love it :)
Is this a Mayones guitar?
Hi Ben :) no, it's a Morgano guitar.
Beautiful work! I should’ve read the description as I was kinda blown away that Mayones would have started with a kit neck.
Beautiful craftsmanship and a gorgeous guitar. 👌👍I’ll get my dunce hat and get back into the corner.😊😊
can i order for me??
Hi Encik, if you're interested please send me an email mrgano5@gmail.com
