Your the best and the most in depth, and your passing on your experience that money cant buy, it's so appreciated.
I'd like to see using a multimeter for guitar work video.
A video on how to charge/recharge bar magnets is my no. 1 request for you.
I think it would be helpful to a lot of people to run through using a meter to check continuity/grounds, capacitance and resistance.
Sounds like a great idea
@@DylanTalksTone include testing guitar cables. I have a dedicated cable tester that takes jack/xlrs etc, but a multimeter an do the same.
You didn’t mention tools for working on frets. A lot of new guitarists could benefit from removing the sharp fret ends on cheaper guitars. That seems more likely to be done than filing a nut.
Interesting fact, the US actually is on the metric system and it has been the federally preferred measurement system since it was adopted in 1975. Clearly it's better, however Americans hate change and businesses don't want to pay for the switch. Can you imagine what it would take for a company like Ford or Unilever to switch everything to metric? And, since it completely lacks Federal enforcement, here we sit dividing everything by 12.
Great job Dylan starting out slow is the best way you can always get more expensive tools as your skills improve so you don’t get mad and give up. Don’t try to be a pro take your time it takes time to learn . Dylan talks tone is the best place to learn!
Yes please do a multimeter video. Please.
Thanks for the video and links!
Thanx Dylan, great vid.! I've learnt, now I'll put it to practice. Been spending $$$ on guitar "Hot-Rodding" I'll now "cut-out" the "middle-man".
Great overview and breakdown! Thanks!!
What about the tool behind the drums?
Gordy N the drum stool: the only animal with 3 legs and the asshole on top
Thanks Dylan. I'm going to bite the bullet & buy this stuff; no longer will I take it to guitar shops, who won't be as OCD about the repair as I will!
Can confirm that soldering saves money I have repaired my headphone cable like three times now so my dad's iron has saved me like $60 on that alone. As for nut file I can't afford them and nut blanks so my bass is getting its nut cut with a file set from harbor freight because I want to do it myself anyway. Worst of the slot is going to be the highest string.
I'd love to see a "How to Use" these items, Dylan!
I don't know if you look at new comments made on two year old videos, but if you do, I would like for you to do a video on installing pickups, in particular, top load humbuckers, P90s, and filtertrons. I have bought some Tele bodies that are routed for two humbuckers, top loaded. I don't know the first thing about mounting these. Is it better to use the mounting rings or go directly into the wood (I seriously have a fear of going through the body with the screws). If you already have a video for this, will you point me in the right direction?
I saw the Fluke 115.
metric is "standard" ;)
that other stuff, imperial, is "weird" in the rest of the world.
Set of decent calipers? String height guage? Decent set of files for dressing the frets? Radius gauge set? I am more inclined to buy good quality tools, over time, than to buy some collection of cheap foreign-made garbage. But a hundred bucks for a set of nut files? Man, I’m just getting underway here, and found this fact to be useful, but discouraging. Ambitious, anxious to learn, and am including my young adult son, so hey, man, I’m already in trouble due to GAS, so help a brother out and help us find stuff that’s less expensive but still good for DIYers who appreciate good tools. Won’t be using them all week, every week, like a tech, but I take no pleasure in trying to work with cheap, poorly-made tools.
.
you made a good point
Though I'm not sure you can call it a tool, when I'm working on an electric guitar, Contact Cleaner is one of my best friends!
Hey Dylan,
Yep, would be good to have a video on using a multimeter - loads ‘out there’ but many badly explained or can’t trust they know what they’re talking about! And also would love to see specific overview of pickup building tools and materials.
Cheers
I second this.
How to use a multimeter video would be great!
amazing. multimeter video +1
Multimeter and guitar, dig.
yes plz, a vid on multimeter use would be dope. \m_
Great video Dylan! I got my first electric recently as a kit exactly so that I know how it works and won't be intimidated to do maintenance on it myself. Finished and built it over the summer, then upgraded the nut and tuners. I love the thing, it plays great, will upgrade the pickups and electronics in the future too. It's a cheap tele knock off but the body and neck are well made and there's so much I can do on it myself as a beginner/hobbyist with basic tools like you show. All I have left to get is a meter for when I upgrade what's under the hood but there's enough time before my pots and caps arrive. Just wanted to say thanks cause I learned a lot watching your videos! Very clear, no bullshit lessons that anyone can understand.
And yeah, a tutorial on using the meter would be good.
Cheers!
@Virgil Grin Thanks!! I did check them out once but it's a little complicated since I'm in Europe. Definitely worth trying if I build another kit with a bigger budget, though!
Also a video on how to properly cut/file nuts
A video on how to use a multi meter on guitars would be great, thank you for your videos!
I have most of this, thankfully. I prefer to work on my guitars as much as i possibly can. My soldering is shaky, but it's a start. I do not have nut files....yet.
😳85degrees? Shirt here in New Zealand we lucky to get 30+😆just thought of something half the battle would be guitar storage🤔
I have an analog RadioShack meter from the 80s, why do I need a new one? Also how would I use a digital one with guitar?
Great video.... I’d like to see a video on how to use a multimeter. Also do you have a video on string height actions for both acoustic and electric guitars? And how to use the the feeler gauges and what measurements would be for fender, Gibson, acoustics and other types of guitars?
one of my favorite tool for a floyd rose trem is a 3mm x 4 inch allen screwdriver, it's a screwdriver so it's hard to overtight for beginner and the handle don't get over the body so it won't scratch the body
Linesman pliers all the way for cutting guitar strings. Plus it is useful for a million other things.
Wanna see the tools. I already have all this stuff, I think. Few metrics, though. Dammit, son! Now I gotta get another toolkit. Thanks a million, Dylan. (Actually, I’m not clear on whether or not I’m being sarcastic.)
Thank you! I really love what your doing.....I’d love to see you do you anything on PU winding...
:)
Digital multimeter and guitar repair tutorial pleeeeeeez your such a pro man, Ima start following you,,,sensei
No my experience is that people say that you should just bring it to a shop,
Then that a shop is going to cost alot
And then it usually ends up, you might as well buy a new guitar, or buy one that has all the mods you want, instead of upgrading it, or taking it in to be worked on
A magic tool to set intonation on tune-o-matic without having to move the springs out of the way would be nice to find
Multimeter video please.
I got what you NEED!
Absolutely loved this type of video. Please do a video on using the meter, I bought one after watching one of your videos and would love to see its uses taught by yourself. I learned my soldering needs so far from your videos! Luckily I have all these tools you mentioned because I always wanted to be able to tech all my guitars myself, thank you for all your assistance so far!
Do the video.
About what?
Please add how to use a multi meter in your next video. Pretty please
we did it... i think in the next video
DylanTalksTone
great! Thanks
Just a slight point. What you seem to be calling standard Allen keys is only standard in America. Everywhere else in the world the standard is metric. In Europe what you are calling standard is known as imperial. Thanks for the great videos.
Watch the rest of the video... I discuss this. People need to calm down about what measures what lol.
