Happy New Guitar Day, herzlichen Glückwunsch zu deiner neuen Gitarre, die sieht ja echt Stark aus und gefällt mir auch sehr gut..und der gesperrte Hals ist ja Mega!! Die Produktion deiner Videos haben auch einen ordentlichen Sprung gemacht, seit dem letzten Video von dir das ich gesehen habe!! Gratuliere!! sieht super aus!
Dank dir ganz herzlich für dein klasse Feedback Chrr Z :)! Bin echt happy wie die Arda geworden ist, war ja eine spannende neue Erfahrung für mich mit größtenteils eigenen Design und selbst organisierten Holz mir eine Gitarre bauen zu lassen. Olmo hat es dann natürlich auch einfach grandios umgesetzt. Das ganze hat gleich so viel Spaß gemacht dass noch weitere solcher Projekte, z.T. von anderen Gitarrenbauern, folgen werden und dann auch hier beleuchtet werden. Freut mich auch dass man die Verbesserungen in der Videoproduktion sieht, macht Spaß den Fortschritt zu sehen und belohnt doch etwas für die vielen Mühen ;)
Congratulations on such a beautiful guitar! This is a work of art. I was stunned by the neck. Enjoy playing your new guitar and I'm already waiting for the review! Also, the pickups sound great as well!
Thanks allot Carlos for your great feedback :). I already started writing a new song with this beauty and still very happy about this beauty. The neck not only looks amazing but also its shape is fantastic and feels natural to play :D
Thanks for your comment GuitarNewz and absolutely yes, not that much into crazy inlays as I like beautiful woods speak for themselves and this one just does best without any inlays :D
Sehr schön. Die Holz-/Farbkombination ist absolut gelungen. Glückwunsch. Von wem sind die Tonabnehmer? War schlecht zu verstehen im Video. Bin auf meine gespannt. Wird aber noch bestimmt Ende 2021 werden bis er damit anfängt.
Dank dir ganz herzlich für deinen Kommentar! Ja, Olmo ist gut ausgebucht, zurecht und es lohnt sich :). Welche Form/Specs soll deine Traumgitarre denn haben? Die Tonabnehmer sind von Häussel, die schon seit etlichen Jahren mehr wie nur ein Geheimtipp sind und vor allem bei deutschen Custom-Gitarren gerne Verwendung finden. Für mich gehören sie zu den Top 5 an Pickups die man am Markt bekommen kann, mit fantastischer string separation.
@@MassiveSoundProductions Es ist eine Martyr II lavaorange -> rot ins schwarz verlaufend mit einem Inlaydesign im Griffbrett von mir. Bare Knuckle Nailbombs und auch ein reverse headstock. Wobei, bis er baut kann sich das mit der Farbe noch ändern. Die pickups sehe ich mir an. Danke.
@@arric2074 Klingt sehr lecker was du da vorhast! Bin schon sehr gespannt auf das Ergebnis :). Welche Hölzer lässt du dir denn verbauen? Kann Häussel wie gesagt nur wärmstens empfehlen. Unbedingt mal antesten, brauchen sich hinter Bare Knuckle überhaupt nicht verstecken.
@@arric2074 Das mit Sicherheit. Die Hölzer beeinflussen letztendlich nicht nur die Optik sondern auch den Sound deiner Gitarre. Halte mich da gerne auf dem Laufenden und melde dich jederzeit wenn du noch Fragen hast.
Welcome to the Arda family mate! your custom looks great and sounds really awesome. The wait is totally worth, i'm waiting for my 2nd build from Olmo since last July and i can't wait to get it started. I think the process with him while discussing the specs and the overall communication is absolutely top notch. My first Arda came out way better than my expectation (i have a couple of videos on my channel if you want to see it). I can absolutely recommend to everyone looking for a unique and totally custom guitar.
Thanks allot for the warm welcome Nicolò 😊 and congrats to your beautiful Arda! Had a look at your video and it looks absolutely stunning as well. Also fully agree to everything you are saying. Olmo is a great guy and fantastic luthier, whose work doesn’t need to hide behind the big brands out there. Fully custom guitars on such a high standard, like Arda has, are hard to find. Do you have the specs for your 2nd build finalized already?
@@MassiveSoundProductions I don't have already finalized but will do during the next couple of months because Olmo will start to build it. But i talked with him and we discussed a starting point. I'm lucky because Olmo's workshop is about 2hrs far from where i live so i got to met him in person and we talked about the build. For what i can tell you right now it will be a Martyr 6 string multiscale, with Burl Walnut carved top (already bought and given to Olmo) and a Macassar Ebony body, 7 ply Ebony and walnut neck, with Macassar Ebony fretboard. Then there will be some details (like bindings, inlays and other details) made with Olive wood. Pickups will be BKPs Warpig ceramic at Bridge and Aftermath at neck. Hardware maybe Hipshot bridge and tuners, or Abm single saddle bridge. This is the initial idea and we alredy talked about it but i'm sure we will discuss more in-depth details when he will start building it!
However yes, it's hard to find someone that makes such incredible guitars with that level of customization. The prices (mine was 2.3 k euros) are also affordable if we compared to other boutique luthiers, that makes guitars for like 4K or 5k euros. I was talking with an another luthier from italy for a custom and we talked about Arda and his first words were "i think he should rise the prices because his work is so perfect that buying a guitar like those, at that price range it's almost a steal". Arda should be more recognized, expecially if we consider that Olmo makes everything completely by hand (no cnc at all, just for complex inlays) and has this variety of customization options...it's just like the perfect guitar maker for someone that wants a full custom instrument. For sure i'll be ordering a 3rd guitar soon hahahah
@@nicolofaettini7458 Wow, what you have planned here sounds super killer 🤩! I’m a bit jealous that you life that close to him and can visit him in person. As I have some plans for holidays in Italy for this summer I might also take the chance to say hello to him in his workshop. Do you have pictures of your wood for build nr. 2 and may I ask where you exactly bought it? You can also write/answer me via facebook, instagram or email sebastian@massivesoundproductions.com, this might be a bit easier 😊
Haha, I know what you are saying. For his overall service and the quality of his work he is definitely charging some fair prices and there is a high chance that I might do a third build with him as well 😋
Awsome channel 👍 i fell in true love with one of their guitars on their honepage its got the looks and averyrhing i have been looking for for 10years! Where do you order these guitars and what was the price on yours? 😊
Thanks allot Fisgrisen for your insane feedback, happy you like my little channel here :)! Do you remember which Arda you exactly felt in love with? They are all custom made and due to that the price depends very much on the specs you want. But what I can say is that the prices are very very reasonable for a Custom guitar which is done allot by hands. If you are interested in getting one the best is to either contact Arda guitars by email or, even better, via their facebook page.
@@MassiveSoundProductions I would Like the Martyr Shrouded custom 7 but as a 6-string satin black with orange bindning it was and exactly made like that guitar. Or the Monarch custom its an orange one with gold pieces on it but with a hardtail and not a floyd rose! Would that be possible because its the first time i find a Guitar i 100% love. And could you give me some kind of price on each one of the as i want them? ❤️❤️ i Need it shipped to sweden. Thanks sooo much for your reply 🤘 you are awsome
@@Fisgrisen Both the Martyr as well as the Monarch are fantastic guitars. Contact Olmo from Arda guitars he is a very nice guy and can make you a exact quote on what you want. Especially a Martyr similar to the Shrouded should be still reasonable priced from my gut feeling. As Arda guitars is based in Italy shipping to Sweden isn't a problem at all as well. But keep in mind, if you decide to get a custom guitar by Arda it might take one year or longer to build, but it's definitely worth the wait :D
wie sieht denn die Preis-Bandbreite von Arda aus? Auf der Homepage finde ich nirgends auch nur einen kleinen tipp, wie teuer so eine Gitarre sein könnte. Es ist mein Traum, irgendwann so eine Gitarre zu besitzen aber ich muss wissen, wie viele Jahre ich noch sparen muss ^^
Hi Woolwizard, das hängt tatsächlich sehr stark von deinen Wünschen ab, also welche Hölzer, Hardware, Pickups du gerne hättest. Arda ist, anders als manch anderer Custom Gitarrebauer, allerdings wirklich noch bezahlbar und sehr fair im Preis. Ab 2500€ bis open end ist hier alles drin. Sollte es konkreter werden schreibe ihn am besten über Facebook an 😊
That's a good question eglide. On one side you have the Mayones which is an absolute perfectly manufactured factory guitar which feels and plays fantastic, sounds great and you 100% just know what you will get here. On the other side you have the Arda which is a 100% unique instrument which you won’t find anywhere else, which is by 99% on the build quality level of a Mayones, especially if you think how much more handwork has flew into it this is remarkable, and when looking at the small details and the quality of the woods the money you have to put on the table here is nearly unrivaled. If you are exactly looking for a Mayones, go for it, but if you want something more unique getting an Arda for sure is a fantastic choice.
One of the most beautiful guitars I have ever seen. Well done!
Hi Peter, thanks for your comment and really happy you like my Arda 😊! Surely a very very special masterpiece which I'm happy to have.

Great video, thank you! A fretboard without inlays, me like! I have a custom guitar with an Enony fretboard with no inlays, looks so beautiful. :)
