I own a bass, as well as bass guitars. My bass has gut strings on it, they won't work on a bass guitar. If your bass is of a guitar design it is a bass guitar. Some people just amaze me that they know how to breathe with out being reminded. Beautiful work as usual, I told a friend about the coffee guitar from years past and he didn't believe me. I had to force him to watch!
Honestly, I've run out of superlatives for your builds. It's always such a treat to watch all of them go from concept to final product to the sweet, sweet demos at the conclusion. Thank you for sharing these with us, and I look forward to more in 2024 and beyond.
Just gorgeous. So happy you finally did a bass. I think most of us would kill for a bass that unique. Thanks for putting the time-stamp. I've always wondered how long it took.
That tele at the end was pretty! It looked like bright stars or fireflies in an evening sky above a darkened city skyline! Also, loved the little details you did on this bass like the penil end dot inlays, the just minor flavor touch of pencil on the headstock tip, solid touches. That tele though.... it resonated with me.
You continue to amaze me, sir. Truly. Watching your first build with colored pencils I never would have thought that I’d like the potential result. And in builds by others maybe I wouldn’t have. But your’s are always really interesting. I like that you were less linear this time & used the ‘lines’ in different layouts. Again… you continue to amaze. Well done! 👍🏼 I’m certain there’s an understanding to be had here that I’m clearly missing… but the effectiveness of the ‘antenna’ that was inadvertently made is only more amazing that it is down to a simple grounding error. That’s always boggled my mind. Primarily because having grown up in the age of ‘rabbit ear’ antennas rather than digital cabling, even in the most perfect of conditions, we never had the reception clarity that this bass produced. Not even once. LOL
Your videos are really inspiring. I've always wanted to get into building my own guitars and basses and watching you makes me feel like I have the power to get there. Always look forward to seeing your next build.
You are truly a master luthier guitar Builder I really enjoy your videos thank you I wish you would show more I know you only have enough time to do as many as you can but I really enjoy them thank you good luck and God bless
Come for the guitar builds, stay for the demos at the end! New subscriber from Australia here - absolutely in awe of your talents as a craftsman and a musician!
I have no idea how to play guitar but I want to buy one of your works so in 20 years I can say I have an original burls art guitar and I have been subscribed since the first colored pencil.
i don’t play guitar or anything but i’ve been subscribed for years now and you make my absolute favorite videos on youtube i love your demos and the way you explain the building process
Gorgeous work. I love the little extra touches like the colored pencil inlay going the other way. I'm not super into the shape, but appreciate how the shape plays into the theme too. Wonderful all around.
Amazing, I love all your builds but this one is definitely my favorite and your methodology’s have gone uber next level. I would absolutely buy it if I could but I really hope it winds up gracing many a stage by a talented musician for many to appreciate.
So... I don't know anything about guitars, so that was new to me. But the craftsmanship and detail, plus the video itself with great angles and narration, is all excellent. Thank you.
Nice job! I play and build guitars too. Thanks for sharing some of your techniques! The inserts and bolts along with the aluminum bushings in the neck pocket looks like a great idea! So does the hardwood dowels for bridge mounting. I may try these in my next build. The guitar looks killer!
Figured 100 bucks an hour for the price of the guitar felt reasonable to offset materials and other related costs, as well as obviously to properly compensate the work and craftsmanship that goes into this. Needless to say the price on your site feels very reasonable. Not shocking that pretty much everything has been sold. You have no idea how tempting that tele is...
This turned out so awesome! In my honest opinion you can see such growth in the process and making of the guitars over the years. And that's saying a lot cause even the very first ones were incredibly cool. This is so dope, good job man, keep doing what you love
Dude great work and thanks for the entertainment but please get yourself a push stick and a blade guard if you can, before you lose some fingers. That table saw looks terrifying.
Great job!!! I never would have thought to use colored pencils for a guitar body. I really like how you cut the blanks to fan out instead of doing a straight run.
A radio bass would be cool. Once you're done with one you can switch to the other. Over all beautiful bass and you're an artist at your craft. Great work.
Tbh the neck stole the show for me. That flame maple looks incredible and the headstock design is perfect. I’m amazed by the quality of your work every time.
I love your videos, you inspired me to make a custom 3D printed Flying V body last year and I just finished it in October. So happy with how it came out and wouldn’t have been able to do it without seeing your videos.
I once had a Boss Distortion pedal (back in the 90s) that could pick up Japanese radio. When you mix that with a flanger, it comes out crazy. Awesome job
I don’t play guitar, am not musical in the slightest… but you sir make a damn good video, and good woodworking as well! I didn’t realize I was ten minutes into this video and all of a sudden I was struck with the thought “wow, this is a great video” especially the fact that you can get lost in the video ten mins in without even checking how much is left, or flipping to the next video. Well done sir! Well done!
This was truly awesome man. I think my favorite of yours so far. I love the pencils in the headstock! I always wanted to be a luthier. I want to build one someday myself!
just do it! I've wanted to build a guitar for years but for whatever reason never did. Several months ago I was talking with a friend of mine about those things that we've wanted to do, but always seem to just put them off and not do them. So we challenged each other to choose one of those projects and actually do it. We are checking in with each other once a month with a kind of show and tell. That gave me the accountability to actually begin my guitar build. I'm loving it. So glad I finally started. But as a noob, I'm taking it slow.
I've been watching your videos for years now. And I think it is about time you make an epoxy preserved big Mac guitar. Doesn't have to be big Mac, it could also be mcnuggets or McChicken. I'll let you decide which one you should choose but I think you should do it. It would be your craziest video yet. You've made guitars out of colored pencils, paper, and coins, why not big macs. Thank you
Honestly a guitar/radio with a flick of a switch is genius.
You would like my SPACE Bass .
I really want to hear someone play a bass with that radio effect
DAVI504
The best I'd ever play, by just picking up someone else's music on the radio
Yes, this is indeed genius.
I cannot describe the absolute joy i felt when i opened youtube and saw Burls Art uploaded
It's about as fast as I can click!
@@Lank2thepast no doubt
@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus1 ok i 100% agree with that and believe in that but why on this comment?
Go away@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus1
I love how cutting colored pencils at an angle just looks like a stretched texture
It's trippy
@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus1and how am i supposed to do that
@@horatio2560by reporting that account
I was so confused as to how he did it
Looks awful imo. Really ugly trend
It's been an awesome journey over the years watching you perfect your building techniques and learn as you go. Super inspiring stuff.
I’m not a bassist, but that bass is beautiful! And the Tele is beyond words. Great builds!
It doesnt have a truss rod so its unplayable
@@who3033, what doesn't have a truss rod?
@Repent-and-believe-in-Jesus1god isn’t real 😂
@@who3033 it does have a truss rod you can literally see it in the video
Hell of a build, and glad to see a five stringer! Glad you show the time that goes into such a build, shows why it's worth its price tag.
Plus collectable
I bet he'll still get people complaining about it unfortunately
Plus just the art of the guitars themselves is way worth the price! He's almost asking too little.
5 string is superfluous
@@SonyaBladesBooty eh thats debatable, you get a wider range of sound from it, probably more useful in some genres over others

"I am going to call it a bass for here on out" proceeds to never call it a bass and puts guitar in video title. Love it lol
He changed the title 😂
I love how you come up with cool new patterns for your colored pencil builds that makes them so interesting to watch and see how you improved!
Just gorgeous. So happy you finally did a bass. I think most of us would kill for a bass that unique. Thanks for putting the time-stamp. I've always wondered how long it took.

That tele though.... it resonated with me.
It’s for sale on his site.
Always glad to see a new Burls Art vid!
Another great instrument!
It is always a pleasure to see a new video from you 😃

This was a journey I didn't know I wanted to go on. But I'm glad I did. Incredible work. Thank you for creating and sharing.
Yet another terrific guitar build & that Bass plays & sounds great! Happy Holidays to you & your family! 🎸🎸🌲🌲
I think this is my favorite guitar build you've done. Awesome job!
NEW BURLS ART VIDEO LETS GO!
and it’s a bass? awesome. as a bass player - i approve. thanks for sharing your art with us, your videos never fail to amaze me!
That neck looks really nice. The shape looks nice, the wood is beautiful but the pencils on the headstock make it instantly recognisable. Great work.
I love the monster noise the radio "preamp" made when you turned it on. I think the head design is great and the base is amazing.
You are truly a master luthier guitar Builder I really enjoy your videos thank you I wish you would show more I know you only have enough time to do as many as you can but I really enjoy them thank you good luck and God bless

You should buy a Squier and learn to play, then one day you can own a genuine Burl's Art piece and make it sing too 😉
i don’t play guitar or anything but i’ve been subscribed for years now and you make my absolute favorite videos on youtube i love your demos and the way you explain the building process
Once again very cool. Your creativity is inspiring. And I am very jealous of your guitar playing for such a young man.
Gorgeous - from the look to the sound to the radio feature!!!
Gorgeous work. I love the little extra touches like the colored pencil inlay going the other way. I'm not super into the shape, but appreciate how the shape plays into the theme too. Wonderful all around.
Heyo! Excited to see this build!
Edit: just finished the vid. What a beautiful bass, dude!
As a bassist who has played a 5 string before, this thing is super cool! Keep up the good work, I'm really exited for your next project!
The inlay in the headstock looks awesome.
Amazing, I love all your builds but this one is definitely my favorite and your methodology’s have gone uber next level. I would absolutely buy it if I could but I really hope it winds up gracing many a stage by a talented musician for many to appreciate.
This is by far the best one yet. Davie504 will love to see this.
excited to see how this turns out!!!!
came out beautifully!! they do just keep getting better and better
So... I don't know anything about guitars, so that was new to me. But the craftsmanship and detail, plus the video itself with great angles and narration, is all excellent. Thank you.

Gives a whole new meaning to a 'tele-caster' if it can cast the radio haha
Figured 100 bucks an hour for the price of the guitar felt reasonable to offset materials and other related costs, as well as obviously to properly compensate the work and craftsmanship that goes into this. Needless to say the price on your site feels very reasonable. Not shocking that pretty much everything has been sold. You have no idea how tempting that tele is...
you're by far my fav guitar builder! i absolutely love everything you do! keep it up!
The color pencil builds remain my absolute favorite builds! Thank You!
The colored pencils on the headstock is such a cool look!
This turned out so awesome! In my honest opinion you can see such growth in the process and making of the guitars over the years. And that's saying a lot cause even the very first ones were incredibly cool. This is so dope, good job man, keep doing what you love
One of them new coloured pencil/pack twelve championship 5 string basses. And it’s a touchdown! 🏈
The quality of your builds has improved immensely since your first, they're so beautiful
The flame 🔥 on that neck is superb!
Oh that is a GREAT sound. Excellent to watch you work as always.
Nice custom radio channel. And it also shows how to turn your radio into an impromptu musical instrument!
Masterpiece. Really beautiful shape. And the headstock is very stylish. I love the radio concept i hope you can keep it in the wiring!!
They just get better every time. What a beautiful instrument!
You win the pencil guitar design award 100% What's also very cool is you're probably getting new folks interested in playing!!!
Dude great work and thanks for the entertainment but please get yourself a push stick and a blade guard if you can, before you lose some fingers. That table saw looks terrifying.
Absolutely fantastic build - so wonderful to see you create art out of such simple materials.
I really appreciate the hour counter, a small detail but genius…
BTW- great job!
👍👍👍

A radio bass would be cool. Once you're done with one you can switch to the other. Over all beautiful bass and you're an artist at your craft. Great work.
Beautiful. I love how it fans out. Pencil fret markers look cool too. Good idea.
Tbh the neck stole the show for me. That flame maple looks incredible and the headstock design is perfect. I’m amazed by the quality of your work every time.
I love how much detail goes into this!

You are criminally underrated, and this is an awesome build once again. One of my favorite is the Coffee beans one
This is a juicy looker. Even in regular hardwood style it kills. Great demo!
I don’t play guitar, am not musical in the slightest… but you sir make a damn good video, and good woodworking as well! I didn’t realize I was ten minutes into this video and all of a sudden I was struck with the thought “wow, this is a great video” especially the fact that you can get lost in the video ten mins in without even checking how much is left, or flipping to the next video. Well done sir! Well done!
Both and base and tele look awesome, your builds are superb
There is a name for people like you...............GENIUS
Totally amazing. Beautiful work of art as well as a nice played instrument.
That flame maple neck is beautiful!
A color pencil G&L bass???? You madman. Love it. Great video as always
Great job🎉 I would love a bass guitar I also love the videos you make it’s so cool 😎
I dont play guitar but I do apreciate your beautiful builds.
A new Burls Art video! Awwome build dude, thanks.
This was truly awesome man. I think my favorite of yours so far. I love the pencils in the headstock! I always wanted to be a luthier. I want to build one someday myself!

11:30 is amazing
Yeo burls are I just had a crazy idea for you I’ve thought about it but don’t have the tools to do it. STAIN GLASS GUITAR
With every build you are getting closer to that masterpiece I can feel it!
Even thou I believe some of your work already is
That fret marker is a stroke of genius
Man gotta say never disappoints to see ur videos. Now u need to try and make a acoustic guitar
You’re a master of your craft my friend
A bass playing a football game broadcast is hilarious! Just when I thought I'd seen it all, this world never ceases surprise me!😅
you know its a good day when Burls art uploads a video.
This turned out amazing! The effect is so cool - well done!!! 🎸🖍
Burls Art is my favorite radio antenna artist
I love the shape of the bass- has a 60s science fiction feel
I don’t have 6,000 and I want to buy this! Artttt and music. Great job!
Really awesome to see how far you've come doing these builds. Amazing work as always! 👍
When you accidentally built a radio Instead of a guitar 😂😂🙌
I think this colored pencil one is my fave!
it always makes my day when you upload a new video
I never get bored of these videos. You make some beautiful guitars
Cool stuff! Thanks! Happy holidays! 🤶🎅🏻🙂😎
I've been watching your videos for years now. And I think it is about time you make an epoxy preserved big Mac guitar. Doesn't have to be big Mac, it could also be mcnuggets or McChicken. I'll let you decide which one you should choose but I think you should do it. It would be your craziest video yet. You've made guitars out of colored pencils, paper, and coins, why not big macs. Thank you
This is such a beautiful instrument!♥♥♥👌👌👌
I just checked your website, the wildfire baritone is THE most beautiful guitar I've ever seen in my entire life...
Superb - so clean and funky. Awesome work! ❤
I can't wait for you to get a big CNC machine. You've earned it
Dang that’s clean! Loving the headstock and that demooooooo 🤙
This is your best build yet
A new Burls Art video today is a pretty cool birthday present
Damn you really have evolved this style. It's on a whole different level
