Hey Matt great video I'm gonna give this fabric top a blast myself, now I'm drooling at paisley fabrics mmmm paisley,, I've been stripping, painting, modding and rebuilding electrics for years now, done a few bookmatched veneers too, so I'm gonna enjoy the challenge. Here in Manchester UK we call them mini rollers..! But not anymore.. Now it's a weenie Your channel is awesome, your enthusiasm infectious and your builds super cool. Can I make a request..? Please do some sparkle paints jobs??
Hi happyads, I like your style, thanks for watching, I think you will find that the fabric tops are really easy and look great. Glad you are on board with the new terminology hahaha. Metal flake paint jobs are so messy but that might be a really fun video deep dive.
If you're planning on trying this I'd suggest you use a pure cotton, which is a better tone fabric than, say, a cotton blend or polyester. Some people swear by silk, but I find it's a bit lacking in the mids.

When purchasing 'weenie' rollers, 'med' rollers in Australia, get the shortest frame possible, more control, and you can hang it on the side of a 4L pot, and use a thin offcut a little wider than the roller, angled in the pot as a make shift roller tray.
Hey Rhys. You’re Aussie too yeah? I’ve been struggling to find what products to use that can be purchased here. What sealer did you use? And did you do a burst over that fabric? Do you know what kind of paint and clear coat is needed to adhere to the sealer properly?
I've learned that a Dremel tool comes in handy for cleaning up pickup and control cavities, as well as neck pockets if you use a body that's already routed.
I love that fabric Matt. This really is easy and everyone that tries this needs to follow your method to the letter.😀 I tried epoxy and it just didn't work at all.
Hi mate, luv your vids, much appreciated, one quick question if possible, I noticed you sanded the first coat?? Is there a sand through issue or is there more than one coat before sanding, tia 😃✌️
The magazine Family Handyman suggests first de-fuzzing your roller with the sticky side of some tape to prevent or cut down the “boogers” as you called them.
3M makes these little plastic scrapers that are somewhat thick that would work perfect for once the fabric is down to use to get it smooth.. Used to use them at a prior job for applying tape and they were awesome. I'll see if I can get a link for them for you to check out.
Best part is they are extremely cheap and durable m.skygeek.com/3m-051128-09206-hand-applicator-pa1-b-blue.html?gclid=CjwKCAjwpKveBRAwEiwAo4Pqm7Enjd36GTeDg3toFCPUiGHx6FGlq_RFDs7l2mynuM5VrGwT4WWG6xoCppYQAvD_BwE

Hey matt i was thinking of doing a full fabric wrap around the front back and sides of the guitar, have you done a full wrap and are their any issues i need to watch out for?
I'm not going to say that is will always do or not perform the same from one fabric to the next. You should test all of this stuff out and make sure it will work on your project.
@@TexasToastGuitars Cool I love seeing recreations of some of the more obscure but killer models being made by talented US builders and not Aliexpress.
Hi Matt, I have a question you might be able to answer. I have a guitar with an all over fabric covering that the customer wants removing! How would you approach it?. Its an LP copy with a bolt on neck.
Hi Paul, I've got to assume that your customer wants to remove the fabric because of some tone thing. Since it is an LP copy with a bolt on neck I would recommend building a new body. That way you can use nice mahogany and maple. Who knows what it is going to look like or even be once you get that stuff off of there. I know that isn't really an answer but it is how I would approach it. Let me know if I can help
@@TexasToastGuitars Hi Matt, it's not a tone thing he is just bored with the camo effect. The body is really heavy and from checking out the control cavity looks like solid Maple. I told him that if I had to remove it with heat or chemicals then sand back to smooth it might take it down some in dimensions, then have to adjust neck break angle to compensate, it's a shed load of work. To be frank, he was a fool to buy it in the first place, but hey, work is work!
Matt...I want to do the front, back AND sides. My blank is already routed and I've done the front and back. Do I add sides now or sealer first. I'm also wanting to add binding. Does binding come after all surfaces are sealed?
Hi Matt Great video :) I'm building av V with fabric top (first time), but got som problems along. One; the fabric edges after routing is not sharp, but get fluffy (very small, short treads sticking out). I have fairly sharp bits, and it looks OK at first, but next day they are "fluffy". Two; used double sided tape to attach template for cavities, when pulling template of the fabric loosened from the wood... Have tried to follow youre instructions as well as I'm able to :)
Been watching your videos a few days now and starting to get this crazy idea I could actually build a guitar but I do have a couple questions. How does one go about doing the body contours or reliefs and how does one go about making chambered body guitars? Also can everything be done with a regular router for the most part? Enjoying the videos! you've about got me talked into giving it a try but I need just a few more ingredients before I try to cook something up!!
Sup "Matt" Keep going with the awesome work i am learning how to create a guitar also and test try like how you covered your guitars "Hint". When your putting the fabric on the body you could use a piece of plastic / eftpos card to smooth it out saving using your palm to smooth it out, peace out! from NZ cheers Matt!
Hi Matt! I love these fabric tops and I'm thinking of giving it a shot myself. One problem: No Simtec in the Netherlands.... Could it be done with epoxy resin? Thnx man!

I have built four electric guitars and had a lot of fun doing it. The first one was made from a discarded rock maple bench top and two others were made from 100 year old black walnut with a flame maple top, turned out nice.
If you wrap that glue filled roller in plastic and maybe put it in the fridge/freezer you can reuse it say the next day or two (long term it will dry out in there). Or warm/hot water wash it out and dry it for next time. Then your investment in rollers will last.
I might suggest having a second weenie roller, but a dry one. That way you can roll that fabric flat on there instead of using your hands :) Plus 2 weenies is better..wait a second... Anyways...yeah, a dry one....
Thanks for watching Justin, the foam wienie roller is great for smearing glue or paint but as a hard roller to eliminate bumps it doesn't excel. That fabric is really old and has been wadded up in the box for years.

You certainly can do it I just don't know if it will work the same as the sealer

Hey matt i was thinking of doing a full fabric wrap around the front back and sides of the guitar, have you done a full wrap and are their any issues i need to watch out for?
We have done a few, they are pretty labor intensive. Watch for where the fabric ends and starts up again. I recommend binding
Bahahaha!!! I bought a dress for a girlfriend once that was made from that fabric!
Sexy!
This is fabric I have had since the old shop so... at least 7 years old
does the glue saturate the material and make it blotchy / dark spots?
I'm not going to say that is will always do or not perform the same from one fabric to the next.
You should test all of this stuff out and make sure it will work on your project.
Is there a place to buy fabric for guitars or will any fabric do?

Use vintage speaker cloth! Something recognizable. Good stuff, doesn’t stretch.
I think there are other people who do that
Somehow I think gluing Marshall check-front, or salt-and-pepper grille cloth on your guitar would have Spinal Tap written all over it. 🤣
Maybe use a dry weenie roller to flatten the fabric after gluing down??
There is probably a wienie roller attachment for just this process?
Hmmm maybe I could start making something like that
