I really appreciate you donating this to a good cause. As a veteran myself, I love seeing family's of those injured or killed in the line of duty receive so.e help to make their lives easier.
Been custom carving my first guitar body for like a month, and watching you do innovative designs inspires me to make more! Keep making cool guitars and so will I.
Dude… you have become my favourite guitar build channel. I love that fact that you are completely self taught. (Isn’t the internet wonderful?!!) Dry humour, self depreciating comments, and sheer honestly with your mistakes(?) (No!learning moments.) Love the design, the cause and the coolest of small details. Good luck with the wiring issue. You’ll get that sorted. Would love to hear it. Awesome design,
Very impressive. I am just starting my journey in guitar building, and discovering your channel has helped me a lot. You're very good with your explanations , and the videos are very easy to follow and very informative. Please keep the great content coming.
Beautiful guitar. I'm not much of a woodworker myself but after watching some of your videos i'm considering purchasing one of your templates to give it a go. The designs are gorgeous and it looks like a lot of fun. Thanks again. I've subscribed to your channel and will definitely be keeping an eye on it!
I love your honesty, humility, willing to admit you've never used burl before because it makes you that much more authentic. I've only assembled basses with off the shelf parts, never made one from scratch, so you have "it". I look forward to seeing the finished product. EDIT : I bet you REALLY understand how to make a great neck now ! Also, I love using threaded inserts. The finished product is stunning. I love the Hippie Sandwich look.
Been playing guitar since my early teens, now 52, have always wanted a custom 1 off guitar, these by far are some of the most beautiful I’ve seen. Keep up the gorgeous work sir.
Aaaa, your builds are damn incredible! I'm planning to do my first build this coming summer, and watching your videos is just making me more motivated!
Woiw, what a beautiful build! I am a guitar player (jazz) and not a woodworker nor guitar builder but, I am truly impressed on how you built this guitar and the look of the finished job. As a veteran of both the military and the army civilan service, I appreciate adding the coin and making it visible that is crazy cool! I simply had to subscribe, you do great work!
this is my first time watching one of your videos, and I love your commentary. I've only recently started learning to work on guitars aside from string changing and setup, and would love to start building guitars, I have a feeling I'll be watching a lot more of your videos in the future.
I am very glad I found your channel. Been thinking about starting a guitar kit, to then eventually work my way to an actual full guitar build. Lover everything about your channel so far man.. Thank you
The compliments are appreciated! Skip the kit and go straight to a build 🤘🏼 you’ll learn more that way. At least do lol I make so many mistakes and each one is a lesson !
From one luthier to another, excellent job bro! Watching through this vid made me realize I have no original thoughts while building cause you said everything I was thinking right after I thought it lol Absolutely loved the ecplise inlays, I am 100% gonna try that on my next build
Very nice build, resembles a Relish guitar body. I recently acquired some wood to do my own guitar, but I also need to utilize tools from people near by. Good for you for donating the proceeds. 😊
@@sean4586 welp, here we are with the backup winner. Strange coincidence how we spoke on the other post and this username was pulled out of the five gallon bucket that my buddy and I filled with usernames. I’m currently completing the double cut template bundle overnight tonight. I will ship it out this week along with our prior winner’s guitar neck. He’s been patient lol Hit me up on Instagram with a good shipping address and I’ll get you hooked up with the template bundle! Same rules, 24 hours to respond before I have to choose another winner!
Wow, that thing is gorgeous. shit happens on every labor of love that we do. And the more shit happens, the more we learn. I don't woodwork, but I make a lot of mods to guitars that I buy that are in the budget range and improve them with hardware and electronics. Electronics is my strong suit as I worked in that field for over 40 years. I make schematics for every guitar I rewire so if you ever need any help on knowing how to wire something that you have an idea about you can just let me know and I'll be happy to make you a schematic for it with an easy to follow visualization. Always happy to help out another tuber
One day I will make an entire guitar from scratch as you are doing in these videos, but for now I'm getting a lot of enjoyment out of making parts-casters. Thanks for your encouragement!
Thanks for keeping me up watching your videos for hours. My musician friend has been pressuring me to take on a guitar build for him. After watching your vids, I’m all in! Going to start this coming weekend. Wish me luck!!!
if you use plastic binding it is a lot easier and cleaner. you attach the binding by wicking acetone between the wood and bind. it melts the binding into the wood and the only clean up is waiting for the acetone to dry. then you can usea razor to scrape the binding to size.
This one is really cool too. And I can totally relate to the wiring issue. I finished a Les Paul copy with bourbon barrel top and oak body a few weeks ago. The only way I could get the bridge pickup to work was to finally replace it!
Yeah sometime parts are faulty, I’m just replacing the whole setup for something more appealing to the eye. Luckily pickups are more affordable these days, for the most part
Working my was back through your videos and there’s already another give away. Probably too late for this one but a great idea to help people like myself who want to build guitars, or a guitar at least, but have a long way to go and lots of jigs and templates to build just to get started. It seems i am on a similar path you the one you’ve been on, learning as much as possible on YT and Google. Thanks again for a great and well edited video.
This turned out incredible man! Just recently found your channel and it's really making me want to dust off my very amateur woodworking skills and try my hand at a guitar haha!
Well, you were just randomly selected to win the guitar template bundle! I hope you live in America so shipping doesn’t kick my butt 😂 either way, you can start that guitar build now. Congrats!! Hit me up on Instagram and we will hash out shipping and such. I learned from my last build that it’s not good to post my email in a comment section. To anyone else that was hoping to win, I will have many more giveaways soon! Including this same template bundle. And just a heads up, it’s 10:20 PM CST and I need you to reach out within 24 hours or I’ll have to move on to the 2nd place winner!
Damm..really nice guitar build..actualy tbh, this guitar body shape is the shape that i realy admire..i have dream to build this guitar body shape since last year..but this video show that you are the one who is capable to to it..nice job man..👍👍👍
Beautiful burl guitar. You did a great job. I do like contrasting metallic colors like deep blue and yellow or crimson and green for epoxy resin and wood guitars. Rainbow, not so much. Black does go well with wood, but I like color as well. I like the shape of the guitar as well. Good job!
Do what thou heart desires!!! Thine own will, carry my heart to the place of most beauty and unconditional love!!! Aaaaaaaaand BOOOOBIES!!! Love ya bro, keep doing kool stuff and it will always help ppl in ways you could never imagine!!!
Simply amazing! One tip I would like to offer you is to show some slower panning shots at the end to let us see the beauty of your work. Also, the end cards covered up the beauty shots at the end. But your work is outstanding.
A beautiful job with a great choice of woods. I recommend sorting the bearings in your bench drill as the chuck is not running true ( an easy fix ) and get yourself a 1/4" (6mm) 10 tpi skip tooth bandsaw blade and you will be able to cut out a whole body with one pass, instead of taking all those bites at it. Great job and excellent video, keep up the good work !!!
I definitely need to update my drill press forsure. I purposely do no use a small blade because I hate change blades out on the bandsaw. I keep a resaw king on it because my main use for the bandsaw is resawing and ripping. Also, thanks for the compliments!
Nicely executed, and most likely either neck would have looked just fine. Amazing bit of wood for the top, and the finish lets it stand out front and center.
Oh man. That is beautiful. Kind of a Warlock vibe without looking like you copied anything. Not saying you did :) My Mom always told me to go play in traffic! :) Love it to bits! Wish I could afford one of your guitars. Best Regards and Best Wishes! Subscribed. Thought you were somehow going to work Neil Armstrong’s balls into a guitar :) Whoa! Dat magnet trick! I got a fever! And the only cure? An obscene amount of cabinet clamps! “I’m telling you guys..you’re gonna want moar clamps!”
Subbed! A 12" jointer planer combo is a nice compromise for those of us that can't fit a 16" battleship in our shops. A low angle jack with a toothed blade (worlds different than your old stanley) makes pretty quick work of the odd flattening project that won't fit on the 12" jointer, and is too rough for the 16" drum sander. There is always a way! Also, a second bandsaw set up with a 1/8" blade is the great alternative to a jigsaw.
Watching from Brazil here. I'm in the middle of a guitar build myself (my second). One cannot have enough tools. To your wife I say this: approve the purchase, then, ask him to make something exclusively to you using said purchase. See, win-win. Peace and long life! 🖖
Great build and always good to see mistakes happen, we are all human and it helps us all learn. So many builders love to use long drill bits. This always makes me nervous. With a drop top, I prefer to route the wiring channels in the body before gluing the top on. It makes more sense to my small brain.
@@TheWoodenHobbyist I'm only on my fifth and sixth build- defo a garage woodworker. I see lots of builders on UA-cam using long drill bits on drop tops, when, for me, that is only increasing the possibility of something going wrong. I make my own body templates and include the wiring channels on them.
This is a really cool looking guitar. I've been toying with trying to make my first guitar, but always been afraid of doing it. Might actually make it the next project and try to do it with the limited tools I have.
I definitely recommend giving it a try. There are many people who make guitars with only hand tools. Maybe you’ll even create a more efficient process!
@@TheWoodenHobbyist pls consider building an original design of a bass guitar on ur next built, n if im worthy enough for that bass guitar i'll b donating it away to a good friend who is a sessionist, but is in a downward rollercoster ride of his life
I’ll be doing a bass guitar soon! I plan on having a custom bass done in December or January. Got quite a few different builds in the works right now 🤘🏼

Thank you! Reach out if you ever want to discuss your first guitar build 🤘🏼🎸

That means a lot, thanks for the kind words!

Super glad you enjoyed it! If you want a discount on a template kit for your first build let me know.
What a beautiful selection of materials and it doesn't look like a Les Paul, Strat, or Tele. It's a work of art, thanks for the effort and the video..
Thanks a lot! Much appreciated!!
love this build no bs also the mistakes showing is gold. The result is mind blowing, i love the layering and woodchoice , supercool guitar well done!!
I really appreciate it! I like showing the mistakes. I’m human
Saw this yesterday on reddit and thought "man I'd love to see the process of building that". Stoked to find this video, great work man

Wow! Beautiful build. I got really anxious everytime you went through that soft wood before the epoxy... you did an awesome job
Thanks! The whole epoxy process is definitely nerve wracking haha.
glad I found your channel, I've always wanted to build a guitar and you make it look achievable. thanks for that.
Thanks a lot! I hope you give it a go!
this is my first time watching one of your videos, and I love your commentary. I've only recently started learning to work on guitars aside from string changing and setup, and would love to start building guitars, I have a feeling I'll be watching a lot more of your videos in the future.
Hell yeah much appreciated! 🤘🏼
Your guitars are awesome looking and honestly could be popular brand. Nice work!
That may be the goal one day! Thank you!
The originality of this build is so inspiring, I am doing many hours of online research right now before attempting my own first build.
Thanks a lot! And very nice, good luck on this first build!
Outstanding craftsmanship I’m just starting to get into building one. Great job!!!
That's awesome! You'll love the journey. Thanks!

I've never seen this channel before, but this is really cool! Love the guitar and totally agree on the epoxy lol
Much appreciated!
That is an awesome guitar. Another great build, I have never tried a guitar... But your videos have inspired me
And Yes.... A 16 helical head joiner/planer would be great!!! Your wife should give up the new car and let you have it.
Thanks! I hope you get to build one yourself one day!
I’m screenshotting this comment and showing my wife right now lol
Absolutely stunning looking guitar, brilliant and informative video thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it! Thanks!
A beautiful build. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Thanks for watching!
From one luthier to another, excellent job bro! Watching through this vid made me realize I have no original thoughts while building cause you said everything I was thinking right after I thought it lol Absolutely loved the ecplise inlays, I am 100% gonna try that on my next build
Much appreciated! Yeah I’m
Noticing on other places I’ve posted that the inlays were received really well! Thanks!!
Very cool work, very impressive and beautiful result. Kudos for giving the proceeds away
Very much appreciated!
Love your no nonsense chat and commentary also your guitar is badass
Very much appreciated!
Beautiful work. This the second video of yours I have watched and enjoyed.

I love that you push the envelope and try something new with every build, your guitars are amazing. (Also … go with the 16”)
Much appreciated! And I’m definitely going to once I move into a larger shop!
So cool, keep up what you're doing.......love these builds.

if you use plastic binding it is a lot easier and cleaner. you attach the binding by wicking acetone between the wood and bind. it melts the binding into the wood and the only clean up is waiting for the acetone to dry. then you can usea razor to scrape the binding to size.
I’ll have to try that sometime!
This one is really cool too. And I can totally relate to the wiring issue. I finished a Les Paul copy with bourbon barrel top and oak body a few weeks ago. The only way I could get the bridge pickup to work was to finally replace it!
Yeah sometime parts are faulty, I’m just replacing the whole setup for something more appealing to the eye. Luckily pickups are more affordable these days, for the most part

Subbed! A 12" jointer planer combo is a nice compromise for those of us that can't fit a 16" battleship in our shops. A low angle jack with a toothed blade (worlds different than your old stanley) makes pretty quick work of the odd flattening project that won't fit on the 12" jointer, and is too rough for the 16" drum sander. There is always a way!
Also, a second bandsaw set up with a 1/8" blade is the great alternative to a jigsaw.
That’s my kind of thinking, a whole second bandsaw lol my shop is too small for any of the tools I want, but a man can dream. Thanks!
Keep up the great work!

Very much appreciated! I just showed her your comment 😂 thanks!!
Great build and always good to see mistakes happen, we are all human and it helps us all learn. So many builders love to use long drill bits. This always makes me nervous. With a drop top, I prefer to route the wiring channels in the body before gluing the top on. It makes more sense to my small brain.
Makes more sense to any size brain, I’ll definitely do that next time. Much appreciated!
