  • Опубліковано 30 бер 2019
  • Hi, I'm Ary, vocalist and one of two guitar players of the Munich based metal band Delirium's Dawn. I've been building electric guitars and basses for a couple of years now and decided to make some videos documenting my approach on guitarbuilding.
    My guitar brand is called Arkes Guitars.
    In this video you'll see how I built a 5-string neck-through bass for our bass player Younas Khan.
    The whole build will probably be covered in 2 videos, where you can see the building process from start to finish.
    Thanks for watching! I hope you like the video. If you do so, then please click the "thumbs up" button and subscribe to my channel. Don't forget to click on the notification bell. Leave a comment if you like!
    If you have any question please don't hesitate to contact me.

    drilling locator pins in the fret slot, interesting. i always use the fret marking dots and a toothpick, so i can drill them out later for the inlay. never though to drill into the fret slot, but that's an idea. learn something new every day.

    Looks very similar to Keith Merrow custom Schecter guitar neck.

    That’s a nice trick drilling the locator pins for fretboard glue up! Definitely going to use that on my next build. Also you probably know this but in case any of your viewers don’t; it can be kind of difficult to pull the pieces apart after using the masking tape and super glue method. I find that wooden shims like the kind you can buy for a few cents at any hardware store work great. Just insert the pointed side in the gap and gently tap with a hammer. The shims are pine wood so they will not scar the wood.

      Yeah, that’s a good tip! It can be very frustrating when trying to pull two pieces apart after using the super glue and masking tape trick or just doublesided tape.

      @@noahbecker1082 hi, these are locator pins to keep the fretboard from moving while gluing it to the neck. Normally, when you apply wood glue and try to clamp it up without these pins things can move ever so slightly, which you don’t want. It doesn’t matter where you put them. Using a fret slot is a convenient location.

    Nice build! Thanks for documenting it for us. I like that you didn't use a spline for the headstock. Can you tell us the thickness of the blank and the break angle of the headstock?

    • @ArkesGuitars
      @ArkesGuitars  2 роки тому

      The headstock angle is 15 degrees. The headstock thickness is 15mm. The thickness of the neck blank was 5-6cm.

      Konstantinos Kafetzis hey there, maple is a very good tone wood for the neck. Here I made a multi laminated maple neck with purple heart stripes in between. Swamp ash or mahogany are great types of wood for the body. Here I used swamp ash.

      @ArkesGuitars  5 років тому +1

      Jérémie CHARRAS hey, i built about 10 guitars before this one, all which were set neck construction. So yes, this was the first neck through attempt. And it came out perfect! I find neck through easier to build.
