Jokes aside the resin guitars are pretty cool and Burl's art makes some really cool stuff and is a great Guitarist doing original content.
Oh I totally agree, I just though the line “I made a guitar out of guitar parts” was a funny spoof of that stuff.
Not sure if I'm a minority on this. But my all time favorite 60CH videos are when Ryan tinkers with a guitar or paints it. The Super Sonic, the Mustang, the tinfoil guitar, this etc....
Literally could watch you tinker all day long lol
For real! Ryans devil-may-care style of mods has inspired me to start tinkering with things myself. I have a few project pieces that I've purchased for cheap that I'll hopefully be able to mess with over the summer.
As soon as you started talking about the pickguard maker and the "allows it to be customised" I already had a suspicion who it would be, once you said "from the UK" it all but confirmed it, checked the link and there it was.
Absolutely agree that earlpilanz pickguards are one of THE hidden gems of guitar parts. Accurate, professional, their stuff fits and is always top quality. It's also, as far as I can ascertain, mostly made, by hand, in the UK.
I had used them before for off the shelf orders so contacted them about a year ago needing a custom pickguard for a 1970s Lawsuit copy Esquire, made most likely by Ibanez. The guitar was a husk with no pickguard to work from. After some back and forth, and using the original screw holes and the "tan lines" on the guitar, with their guidance I had a template made up in 3mm ply.
Barely a week after I'd posted this to them, a packet dropped through my door with the finished pickguard, plus the returned template (unexpected). It was simply fantastic, a perfect fit in 1mm aged white, with decent aging that looked like it really had been on the guitar since the beginning.
Could not sing high enough praises for what they do, that one part completely made the rebuild what it was.
This comment has made a new customer!
Yeah I've had a couple of pickguards off Earlpilanz and they've been excellent. Definitely a hidden gem as you say.
They made a blank JM pickguard for me too. Perfect. Very happy.
small fun fact: Michael Shuman from Mini Mansions (and Queens of the Stone Age) has a jazzmaster with a tele pickup in the bridge position as well, soooo I guess you guys are part of the same cool guitar club now
Staggered locking tuners should be everyone's go-to choice, especially if you like using the wiggle stick. Nice job, Ryan.
You’ve done it again brother! I’m in love with the Surfy tone you’re getting out of those pickups!!! That thing is a TWANG MACHINE!!!!!
I like odd pickup combinations. I have a Custom Custom seymour duncan in the bridge of my les paul and a Texas Special strat neck pickup in the neck. The bridge coils splits and the entire guitar circuit has a on tap clean boost of up to 15db. Very versatile and fun!
Love the color and the head stock shape,hey it,s unique.
You're having so much fun, so you did it right.
I’d love to see you go further than this and also alter the body shape. Headstock looks pretty cool!
I think it's great! And I agree 100% on wiring it as a humbucker too. It's great man
i am truly amazed by the results... the design, the headstock. and mostly the sounds, it's amazing
I loved the crackling effect you got on the first paint finish. It's crazy how your "mistake" was my masterpiece. It's all so subjective. Great looking guitar.
I really like the headstock shape! You should make a custom decal!
Great idea, some variant on the show logo perhaps...
You never cease to amaze me. Great job on this new project. Guitar looks and sounds wonderful.
Great looking thing and sounds incredible. A fantastic pickup combination!
That looks amazing. I love your creation. Excellent work.
That thing looks and sounds incredible. Great job!
You are very creative. Well done on the paint job!! It came out beautiful. The cut on the headstock is so retro/modern looking... fantastic job!!
This is a fun video, really enjoy the videos you do workshopping / modding guitars. That stripe paint job is so audacious, love it.
I love everything about this
Love the middle position with those Seymour Duncan’s! Also love the headstock. Great build, good sir.
Excellent pickup combination with the orange guitar.
That looks wicked awesome work hard work payed off
Looks fantastic! Love the slanted pickup + stang bridge/vibrato
Holy crap!! What an absolutely lovely guitar! It sounds amazing, got job!
I love it when you mess around with different pickup configurations. Totally unique content keep it up!
LOVE that paint job!!
Awesome and so much fun! that thumbscrew for the bar tension is a great idea! Headstock shape is nice, and yeah, this could be your signature model. sounds surfy and best reason to 'make' a guitar-to have it your way, uniquely for your style
I like how the pickups sound together. Very clear like you say, also punchy. The process looks fun!
Kudos to @seymourduncan. Love the idea of tele + jazzmaster pickups.👌💯👌
Sounds great and looks very cool !
I LOVE the paint job. Loved the gradient too.
That guitar is AWESOME!! LOVE the rectangular headstock!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Seriously though, I wish I could get excited about building partscasters again! I totally burned myself out on it during lockdown. Bravo.
I dig the paint job. I like the subtle difference in the stripe colors. The fuzzy looking paint actually looks pretty good on camera. The headstock looks cool too. That guitar has a real 80's vibe to it. Nice job.
GROOVY FINISH LOVE IT..
THE HEADSTOCK IS BANG ON 🤘
Thanks for inspiring me! I can’t wait to buy one of these kits and give it a try. Love from the uk x
Looks totally rad! ✌🏼
Love this, such a great combination of pickups and hardware. Makes me want to nail the setup on my MIJ Mustang so I can actually use the vibrato!
I will say the cracking finish was fire and you should have left it like that!! Would love to see it with a painted headstock, maybe black, or or matching the body. Great job . Very inspiring
Such a solid build! So you! Nice sounding pickup combination as well. Nice with that reverb! 11s will be awesome on it! Surf it!!!
That’s a really cool guitar. I love the color and the technique you used
I’ve been using the same guy for pickguards for years now. Always amazing
What a great combo of pickups!
I LOVE your headstock design!!! I'm gonna do that maybe myself, as soon as I find a good left-handed diy kit.
absolutely AWESOME job :)
tempted to look at a one of those kits myself for Gits and Shiggles :)
that pickup configuration looks really cool, nice work man
What an awesome build! Anything I can think of seems too mundane by comparison to your ideas. I really love your take on the guitar world and it has inspired me in my guitar journey. Keep up the great work!
the paint job looks great!
Nice guitar and fun vide. It's got a Dr Seuss "Lorax" color vibe. You might even call it the "LorAx" model. The headstock matches the look. I like it. I'll have to check out the other competitors. 👍
dude! that mustang bridge is cool as hell. one of the most unique guitar ideas ive ever seen. wiring it like a humbucker was also a great move
Love how it turned out! I was on the fence on buying one of those affinity jazzmasters, but now I'm actually thinking of buying this kit instead! Lots of modding options 🤘
Great channel! I watch 'em all!
Wow, I'm really impressed with this guitar! Sounds absolutely amazing! And stays in tune surprisingly well after all the deep dives. Aesthetically, I love the body colors and stripes, but imagine how great that would look high gloss. Not sure if I like the cream and white so much. I might try different pickguard/pickup cover/knob colors. Maybe some chrome in there. I'd also do a maple neck, gloss fretboard. And yeah, that headstock... I'd aim for something functional like tuners that are in line with the nut slots for minimal drag. Anyway, fantastic job. Your idea was the main thing. Those pickups sound insanely great, and great together. I'd buy it!
Awesome! Signature model!
I had a MIM Jazzmaster with a tuneomatic bridge and the wiggle stick was basically unusable without it going out of tune. I dropped that same roller bridge in and it immediately worked perfectly with no tuning problems whatsoever and is still working great a year later. Best upgrade I ever made to that guitar
That pickup combination. Dude. That’s perfect. Awesome build, I’d love to copy it, or get one. But with the finish I think it would look cool as a sunburst to contrast that bright orange
Nice job! I would ground all the body cavities and hardware with wire-connected copper foil tape to eliminate the hum and add/use true roller string trees.
I just gotta say until I started watching you I did not appreciate surf music in anyway but your surfy riffs just bring me all the joy.
Rather than routing for a new control, I'd swap the pickup switch for a 4 pole 5-way blade (or a more expensive Freeway switch which could also allow you to keep using the bat-style). That would allow you to add series and even out of phase options. PS: I love the headstock. :)
Middle position sounds killer!
Pretty cool painting buddy !! :)
You did great Ryan! I love it! I would defiantly add locking tuners. Your paint job is awesome! I would change the P90 to a black cover, maybe black knobs and a Tele headstock just to mess with people!
Kudos to your efforts. Very badass! Interesting pickup combo. I like the headstock cut. It's fresh looking. Patent it before someone else does. :)
Loved your orange tiger-stripe. Very cool!
Yes, it is a good video. I enjoy seeing people be creative. Very cool guitar.
Well Done!
Love the headstock sir .nice paint job , I alway's block the trem on my guitars :) lol . good job.
Perfect little rockabilly terror!
🇺🇸⚔️🍕🍺👍👍
A perfect summer guitar!
The headstock!!!!! Fashion faux pas dude!!!!
Rad build! I recently did a sologuitars tele kit. I left it stock, but I just picked up a Kent armstrong firebird neck pickup, and a hot tele pickup and am going to swap those out soon enough. It's fun and satisfying to complete one of these. It's also the guitar I pick up the most now for noodling (over my JM, or SG).
That actually turned out good. I like the pick ups.
You know what... I think I'm going to do this too. Great idea.
Series/parellel switch is awesome. I would love to hear it too Ryan!!!!
I think the two Princetons section is my favorite part of each video.
Sounds good, cool pairing of the pickups. I’ve never craved a Jaguar or Jazzmaster but this channel is converting me
N'nnn''''';nnnnn?nnnnnñbop8.
..
I absolutely love the tiger stripe paint job, that'll be something I look into with my next kit.
Sounds cool.
Love the series switch idea! Especially with the jazzmaster rhythm circuit style switch. The pickup combo is a great idea too. Mm. Great job, man.
Ha!
My amps and pedals have certainly been hit with the ol “kids to 10” drive-by twisting
I wired a series/parallel switch into my jazzmaster exactly the same way he is describing and it sounds HUGE, totally worth it! And it doubles as a kill switch, really cool mod
I like the headstock!!!
Just found your channel, I actually got a pickguard from this seller and they didn’t have any for my guitar so they paid for me to send them mine to make a template, great service and got a sick guard for my offset
That’s awesome
i love the headstock
When you add the switch, consider a mint green or brown tort guard. I think the top corner of the headstock would look better if slightly rounded but I like what you did. One thing I've noticed is that your eyes want to choose color choices that are on the same side of the color wheel while mine always like to choose one from one side and the second from the other to avoid clashes but your visual half step mixes aren't too bad.
Damn, that guitar sounds great!
Oh man, mustang vibrato, tele in the bridge, jmaster in the neck, block inlays and headstock all with a custom stripey paintjob!? Bravo sir👏
lookin good
Shots fired at Burl's Art :P
You should have won the Harley Benton build-off with that! Superb result and sounds wonderful, the ideal surf guitar?
This was cool. I think I'm, in on a DIY project now.
Use your rasp to make a bevel out of the 'not flat' headstock edge. Draw a line on the top and side of the headstock and remove material to get your nice, even bevel. It's like cutting off the corner. You stay square by stopping at your lines
Really like the headstock
I might have to steal that thumb screw idea off of ya! I'm gonna have 3 guitars (when they're all done) with this vibrato and ease of adjustment is appreciated. I did just order an allen key set that comes in a little tin with picks to keep at my desk for when it comes loose while noodlin', so we'll see how that lasts till I get tired of it 😅
once you use a thumb screw you wont go back. Its so convenient.
@@60CycleHumcast and it's stainless so you can polish it to make it pretty! 🤩
get a Freeway Switch! I put one on a Jazzmaster styled guitar that had strat pickups and now I can do normal strat switching as well as neck/bridge combo like a tele. I love it!
Currently working on same kit. Doing Tru Oil finish, but probably not going too crazy on hardware (yet). Definitely going to upgrade the tuners though
Everything in the video shows a thing these DIY kits seem to evoke: the proud feeling of having built something unique and special. And your guitar truly breathes that. As well as all the fun; like that 6y old bringing that Lego space shuttle to life. 😄🤘i don’t know why but i like that headstock! 😅
There's a Squier Vintage Modified Tele that comes in that pickup configuration, it also has a Jazzmaster neck!
I do a similar thing with my Mustang trem arms... I have a bunch of nylon beads that go beneath set screws to stop metal on metal contact. I think I got them through McMaster Carr if I remember correctly. I put the set screw back in with some blue Loctite, and it keeps the arm at the same tension indefinitely, since the screw can't back out, and the metal won't wear down. I got the idea from a tattoo machine that used a set screw and nylon bead to lock down the contact screw in the front binding post. I figured if it doesn't loosen under all that vibration, it would work like a charm on a guitar... and it does!
Great pickup combo, I get the hockey stick headstock but I would take a tad more off it!
