SOOO HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS!!! 🤩
🔥🔥🔥well u did a great job bro I’m happy for you that’s a hard work right there for people who understand how many hours and effort u spend on the project it looks really good bro I’m happy for u bro been here on the Chanel since the beginning keep up the good work and stay positive 👊 greetings from germany 🍻
ME TOO!! (Haven't even watched the video yet)
Been waiting for this video
Everything looks great 👍🏻
If you cut the "factory" end off of the tech flex, which is melted to keep it from fraying, it should allow it to open enough to get the wire in.
Dude, don't worry about what anyone online says about your build. It's leaps and bounds better than the majority of builds out there.
F A C T S!!!!!! 💯
They haters ain't got the money just a mouth
They are just jealues. This is a awesome build!
This build is A-1. I’d pay him 10 times what that build is worth. (If I could afford it)
If not the best build of all
FYI...it was you EXO along with JP and Steve Meade who brought my love for car audio back. So let me say thank you! I watch all 3 of you guys build, rebuild and build for others over the years that i have jumped back in at 45 yrs old.
Still have my eyes out for an alpine 7831 with the 4v preouts lol.
I'm 46, and these guy's brought back into car audio, with a vengeance no less, since my day's from the 90's about 10 years ago and have never looked back.
Everybody's talking about how long it's taking to complete, but he's a working man with a regular job, and he's building it out of his pockets with minimal sponsorship.
EXO, if you turn this into a business you can give Steve Meade some serious competition.
to see the man go from a mini van with bass to this FUCKING EPIC van of detailed skilled labour is exceptional!!! FANTASTIC WORK, EXO!!!!!!
I can't wait just got a brand new 5.9 ltr engine put in my 96 Dodge truck. Miss my sound system
Especially the exodition named Frankenstein he built was very nice
Dnt forget his Toyota Sequoia
I thought it was a focking earthquake or something!!!! Frankenstein was a beast. And that was before the wall.
There's a reason that over half a million of us have subscribed to your channel. You are knowledgeable, talented, and super entertaining! You are killing it with this build and the amount of work done on it mostly by one man is crazy! Of course it's going to take a while and you can't automatically be a pro at every single thing you do but if you can just keep trying to do better tomorrow than today and improving yourself, and even knowing your limits and asking for help... If you do that then I can't understand why anyone would talk down on you and if they do then they shouldn't be taken seriously. Keep killing it!
Lol that was so beautiful. 😂😂😂😂 yea what he said man go EXO 🎉🎉🎉🎉
I couldn't have said that better my self as agreed
Dude I got my microscope out and ...nada. Nothing. Nothing wrong with this project AT ALL. You aren't knocking it out of the park, you are knocking it out of the freakin' galaxy! I'm ALWAYS super-excited when you're coming at me with another build video and it's ALWAYS been 100% worth it.
I'm just a nobody, small fish in a big pond kind of person. I've commented in a previous video with all the reasons why I like Exo. The biggest, most important one being humility. I truly appreciate it. The struggles you presented are real and if we were honest with ourselves we deal with the same issues as well. Thank you for giving us a glimpse of your reality. It is refreshing. Especially when you have the power of editing. It makes me want more. It makes me WANT to see your work. I'm pretty sure I have the same sentiment as every one else when I say It's your build. It's you ride. It's yours Exo and while I know you want to be open to opinions and advice at the same time who cares. As I build my 1970 Beetle I eventually came to the same conclusion that I'm doing it my way for my reasons. As for the one or two that have something negative to say well I just don't care and it's their problem. I like to sing the Frank Sinatra song a lot. I did it my way.
In summation and for what it's worth, I am super happy for you Exo. Take ease!
Your words at around minute 30 nearly got me to tears. I may be only 15 but i am proud of you for saying that out loud. You are doing a great job at entertaining your Community and you also are doing a super good job on the build. ❤
To hell with the haters 👍 Nobody is doing this much work all by themselves, and ain't nobody doing it this damn well either!
Bruce your honestly and authenticity are refreshing. You are an inspiration to many of us and we appreciate all you do! Your videos were the first ones I found on UA-cam when I decided to do a system in my car after being out of the car audio world for almost 20 years. I had a lot to relearn and discover but because of you I believed I could do it. Thank you!
You're the most humble builder on youtube that i know of. You're doing all of this yourself without any fancy tools, which is amazing. I never saw the original built, but this is next level. Taking all your learnt from the old and updating with the new
I don’t comment much but when you thanked your wife for being there for you and she said of course. It was so genuine. I’ve been married for 10 years and man we dudes get so caught up in ourselves sometimes in projects and those lovely ladies strengthen us with just simple words. It’s beautiful. Shoutout to your wife and you for taking this project on for so long. It’s amazing and so are y’all.
Keep that same energy and give us a update after 30 years lol! After being married for 30 years I'm thinking back. thanks to my wife I'm still alive!
You're the best install on UA-cam by a mile. Detail, skills and the effort you put in is first class. Not forgetting how long you take to make these videos for us to enjoy.
Ignore the idiots, simple as that
Ok, I just read and 'thumbs upped' a few hundred comments and I never saw one that was negative or even critical about your choices or your work. We're all on your side Exo!
Ah yes, the inner critic is your worst enemy.
I'm so proud of you to even talk about this stuff. Some of us suffer greatly in their own heads, but you keep pushing through and help thousands of other souls.
Love you man
I've never met EXO - I love him like a brother. The devotion to himself and the community is astounding!
this build in itself is awesome ,but the fact that you've done this by yourself, sets you at a level above those who have had theirs done by somebody else, heck yeah
looks amazing!
I have been watching this build from day 1. Gotta tell you that I think you are one hell of a 1 guy show. You have done this entire build by yourself, and it's amazing, don't swear or care about what any trools think. I personally think you are the man! Keep up the fantastic work buddy!
It's official at this point - this is the most epic bass build on youtube.
Anyone that speaks down on your work is only doing it out of envy! You my friend are an artist. Build what you want and be proud of what you've done. The amount of work and detail you have is second to none!!
The look of Passion for Excellence in this Mans eyes is truly Basshead heart felt, I shed a tear of glee for him, I'm there with him trying to hold up, place into, give him motivation, you Sir are doing this for us we thank you for," 16 Black Tons of Fun." Guinness book of world records should be knocking on your door soon. This is ART of BASS,at it's finest!
I have watched every second of this build since the beginning. The work that goes into this entire production is insane. And every episode is so quality and edited to perfection. I feel like i speak for all of us in saying this. Your doing an absolutely AMAZING JOB. and dont let anyone allow you to think otherwise buddy.
Got so many wires running through this thing you need a traffic planning architect. Keep it up, this will be one serious machine.
Came for the sweet sweet bass, stayed for the positivity. Been watching a long time. I love that you addressed the feelings because that's real, and it's real tough! Happy to see you overcome. BTW I'm watching on a pretty big screen at full res and it looks AWESOME. You've put so much work into all the small details, you're allowed to not put 125% into every single possible thing. Can't wait to see this thing blow the roof off once you finish!
I don’t know if you’ll ever see these comments, but this is as good as anything I’ve seen as a tearjerker. And I don’t cry, ever. God put you right there. Thank you both.
30:10 all that emotion just shows your truly proud and happy with what you made, i know tons of people jump for joy when they see you upload and its not because they wanna see what you may have messed up but so they can see what magnificent thing you've done this time..... keep your chin up Bruce, your doing amazing
Most builds don't even paint at all, 99% of us watching would say it looks awesome, you're going to win every show, can't wait to see the thunder my man!
Exactly it’s so cool
We can be our own harshest critics sometimes. Thanks for sharing your experiences and being a positive motivator!
Bruce, the paint looks AMAZING!!! And the wiring is beautifully laid out too. Such an inspiration to me
EXO I've been watching for over 10 years and I love everything you do!! Your passion for this hobby is incredibly contagious. The attention to detail and hard work you put into your projects have been a big inspiration for me. Can't wait to see the end result of the Behemoth!!
no cap, my jaw dropped when you revealed the finished coating. It's absolutely stunning Bruce!
I can't believe the insane amount of time engineering and work u have put into this build especially factoring in the fact u did 97% of the work yourself. I'm blown away EXO YOUR THE MAN
Always loved Exo. Dude is like most of us not some hyper spoiled kid but a dude who just makes that bass
I’ve watched you for years and I still believe you’re the most deserving of happiness. You put in work and care so much about what you do. Keep doing you 100%.
Brother, the ones that talk trash or tire kick are just people with no aspirations or goals. They’re talking to themselves in those comments. I just realized I’ve been following you for 4 years and have watched every video and not once thought, “he just messed up” or whatever. You’re a beast man. Make yourself happy and that’s all that matters!
Dude. This build is completely over the top. And I don’t see many corners cut here. I am absolutely amazed by how far you’ve come.
You said many, but I think you meant any..
The amount of man hours EXO has put in on this build is amazing. Real fabricators see this and are in awe. Every step that he finishes, only reveals more man hours of work. THIS IS THE HARDEST WORKING MAN ON UA-cam! Then this beast goes inside and edits for ever! Not once has this man even complained during this build. You sir a true inspiration.
What I absolutely love about how you handle your build is that you show the real problems we have when doing this stuff. The frustration, and disappointment, and then the success of small accomplishments. Keep doing the great work! I truly enjoy following along with this build.
EXO you are the truth!!!! I love your passion and you have grown to be one of the best especially with your eye for detail ❤❤
Man this has been heck of a journey so far. When I see these new videos pop up I stop what I’m doing and watch. The enclosure looks amazing. Don’t worry about the naysayers. Your attention to detail speaks for itself. Very proud of you and all the hard work you’ve put into it. This will be a UA-cam milestone as far as a beginning to end audio build.
Yes sir we have been waiting for EXO !!!! Outstanding as usual !!!
Looks Great ! Your enthusiasm just shows your passion for the build ! Sometimes it's okay to step back and take a breath ! Clears the brain
I was a certified installer for Pioneer electronics in the late 80's and still love car audio. You absolutely rock, brother ! And so will your build !!! Keep it up .
Bruce you can’t let what other people think define how you feel or you think man. If you do that, you’ll never be happy or satisfied with anything. It’s not worth it. If you do want or listen to anyone’s opinion, listen to your loved ones or your close friends, not people on the internet that don’t have a clue who you really are. Excellent work by the way. 😂😂😂
Don't let any hater take your joy!!! I started watching you before this build and I have been on the ride with you when you started it,most of the haters trying to take your joy could not stand in your shoes while you carry a 9 to 5 and breaking your back trying to finish this build your attention to detail is mind blowing!!! 👍👍👊💪
Bruce, you never cease to amaze me with your work. This is an awesome build and extremely impressive that you accomplished this. I've been watching for 10+ years, and I love to see you've come so far.
That's what Trolls do to people. They don't realize there's a human being with feelings that's being hurt and that can make a person over think the smallest things. Looks beautiful, Exo!
I had a bad day. I was going to bed sad but I saw ur video an it gave me a smile. Thank u I’m looking ist right now🙏🏻
Bruce, ive been watching your videos for guidance and entertainment since before i even had my drivers liscense or a car to do my first build. Im 27 now and work long hours and dont have much tike for car audio anymore, but this build series has been the highlight of my day everytime a new video drops. I send the link to all my buddies talking about how insane this build is and how i could never imagine being able to pull something like this off. Thank you so much for all the hard work and dedication over the years, and most of all for putting a smile on thousands of peoples faces across the world including mine.
Love it ! Great Progress!
Don't ever call your feeling stupid. Don't ever apologize to people or to yourself about how you feel. As for being sensitive. That in its self makes you a great person. Your work is top notch and I definitely envy you. Thank you for sharing your story, your build and most of all your feelings.
Nice 🙂
I don't comment much, have been subscribed since the beginning, and have watched you over the years. It's good you have those feelings about how people see your work. That's what makes us better. Guides us to perfect our art. This build is absolutely stunning, and it really shows the professionalism and progress you have made over the years. We are all very proud of you, Bruce. You have come so far, and it really shows. Amazing job. Keep your head high brother!!
It's looking great! The amount of effort you've put into the van and your energy is so inspirational. I can't wait to see it finished!
No words. Coming along absolutely amazing
The detail and time and energy not to mention money spent on this build is so incredible. I have to get a demo of this in person when it’s done. This is amazing EXO.
There is nothing wrong with someone giving their all, no matter what the results. Kudos for having the guts to try something new. It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks but you!
Sick build!!!! coming from the 90's and early 2000's doing this kind of stuff. this is next level. I love seeing it!
We're proud of you!!!! Beautiful work!
Never doubt yourself. You are doing an amazing job, mostly by yourself, with a super complex and time consuming build, that the “haters” could NEVER complete.
Bruce, the transformation from Frankenstein to where you are now is incredible. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise my man.
Solo and filming non the less !! Man is a one man army !
Exo you’re smashing it! Doing what you love and doing it extremely well! Take time for yourself, we will wait trust us!
I've been so very impatiently waiting for this video. Love the progress! Keep up the great work!
In an electrician and believe me when I say a HOLDING screwdriver saves A LOT of curse words man! Love watching your wire management because it’s my daily at work. Very satisfying
I'm a fellow Electrician - I studied him hard when he did the garage wiring 😂. EXO has impressed me for years to make the most out of every tool he has. Many men didn't even understand the screwdriver graffic he edited into that bit.
@@bringmeyourweak graphic. Sorry I couldn't ignore it.
@@bringmeyourweak his craftsmanship in general is really impressive. I have coworkers who do worse electrical work than he does and they’re considered professionals haha
You're so raw, uncut, and vulnerable and I love that about you brother. Always be yourself and nothing else and never care what anybody else has to say. None of those haters could even come close to what you're doing. Much love to you brother. ❤❤❤❤
By far the best bass build I've ever watched. From the first video about it to this current one, this build is incredible. It's almost unbelievable. Keep pushing man, you're doing good work!
Completely inspiring, I know I’m not the only one who wanted to shed a tear of joy for Exo when discussing others opinions on the build the dudes so transparent you almost feel he’s been your best friend for years but have never met once.. keep it up Exo and thank you Miss Exo for keeping Bruce healthy mentally physically and emotionally.. without proper support behind videos none of this may have been possible 🖤🙏🏼
Duuuuuude! This build is level 10 thousand! I've been doing car audio for 35 years and getting to 25% of what your building would be a life accomplishment!
I'm 51 yrs old working on my 3rd last and final rebuild up if someone doesn't like something. That I've done in my build that's their problem not mine . This build is going to be a reflection of my life achievements and accomplishments
Came for the bass van build, stayed for the life lessons. Also big shout out to your lady for being supportive when you’re doubting yourself. It’s looking amazing, I can’t wait to see this beast when it’s finished!
She was so sweet! What a nice couple!
Faxxx
To see the growth and how you have improved so much in everything you are doing! Thanks for the content!
I think it all looks fabulous. Can't wait till I can hear it. Keep up the great work and keep the updates coming.
exo ive been watching you for some time now.. and when you where beating yourself up about the paint i totally feel your pain but i just want to remind you the only one beating yourself up is you... sometimes when im at work and i cant get my machine up and running and i try all the tricks in my book,im usually the go to guy about a problem or advice on how to fix things and when i cant fix it, i just beat myself to death. but if you take a step back and look at it from a distance youll realize its actually not that bad and notice some of the biggest things become the smallest obstacles..sometimes our passion becomes so strong it gets in the way of ourselves and we end up spiraling outa control. having to much passion for what ya love is a gift and a curse my friend.. keep up the work..........dont worry about what people will say because after your done with this van you wont be able to hear them anyways!!!
Bro, you are an absolute inspiration. You have nothing to worry about when it comes to what other people think. Us Bass heads WORSHIP your commitment to your project!! By far the most meaningful build on the planet hands down. Keep pushing brother!
Ll😅ll??😅
We absolutely can not wait to hear this. Keep up with the good work and dedication. You're inspiring! 🔊
Awesome job! Can't wait to see your setup complete!
you have come so far from the mini van with a sub to a van built full of subs. I love this build keep it up.
What an Awesome Job! There is no way I could even try to attempt to do what you have accomplished in this build! My mind is blown on how you figured everything out before even starting this build! Wow, Great Job! You are a very intelligent and passionate person, looking forward to the finished product!
Truly hats off to you man. You're an inspiration. Good on you for being transparent and genuine. It's pretty rare these days. And you just made it look great! Can't wait to hear the build
exo buddy myself and many other fans have been watching you for years not waiting for the perfect outcome but following you on this journey sharing your love for music and bass.
you sir are an role model for many out there
Dude I have been watching your videos for years … like lots of years … your builds are always impressive… don’t let stuff get you down … it looks freaking fantastic… someone don’t like … that’s a them problem not a you problem… keep on rocking on
Brother EXO we ain’t here to judge you , we’re all bass heads here to share in your journey and be apart of something we all wish we had the time and skills to do ourselves . The finish is mint !!!.
Peace , love , bass & respect brother
I think you're doing an incredible job on this build, man. If anyone is dumb enough to criticize anything about your project, just tell them to do one better if they think they can. The passion that you are pouring into this really shows. This is a labor of love, and if you love it, then that's all that matters. Screw the rest of them!
Awesome build. Your work is unmatched
The build is so damn awesome looking. Awesome its slowly coming together cant wait just patiently waiting for new video's to drop. Holy crap thats alot of wire sorry you got a directional rca ran the wrong way. Wish i had 6 of those cells lol thats a huge bank of cells.
Dude u bin on the grind for years on this build who the hell cares what people think!! Those people would never in life have a build close to this one EXO love u man keep up the grind dog!!!
Dude you doing your thing, Badass build thus far. I can't wait to hear this beast.
Looks amazing. Can’t wait to see it finished and playing
God dang, you did such an amazing job. I can’t believe how professional that is. I could never do that.
Been in this industry for nearly a decade. You should be proud of yourself. I know I am. Keep going brother.
Van is looking sweet! Thanks for the video! Happy Birthday!
So proud of what you've accomplished with this build. It is beyond anything most of us would have dreamt of. You smashed it! Keep up the great work!
Nice work EXO! Better than anything I ever thought of doing & I've been in electronics as a career for 20 yrs. Keep rockin it & keep being real, you don't know how many ppl you're helping to just navigate life. You're a blessing!
All that matters is that you like your work. This build is for you! This is your passion! With that said, this is far beyond anything I would be willing to do myself. I think what you've done is amazing.
I have been following this build closer than any show or series on tv atm. Keep up the amazing work and ignore the haters.
Looks premium great work as always
Bruce, your paint job looks awesome! Your entire theme is brilliant and really suites the van! Black and silver grey is perfect. Don’t worry about any haters, most people will love it all. The work you’ve done is amazing. Keep it up my friend.
Yeeee boiiiiii. Another EXO upload!
I can only imagine the stress and weight this build is on you and your love ones. Just know there are a lot of people out here finding joy in your build. I'm definitely one of them cheering you on. The last two years have just been crazy for me. I really look forward to your videos and progress on your build! Thank you.
We're here with you and for you brother! Love what you do and appreciate the absolutely awesome drive you put in, in all that you accomplish. HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 🎉
