    Wow I’m impressed!!
    I am a Luthier

I have been building Electric and Acoustic guitars for 40 yrs. and I gotta say: you have given some real detail to your work. You left nothing out. I am so impressed and proud of you for doing such a great job. Just awesome!!!
    Thanks for a great video.

      Hey Chicken, I made a drum kit using pop bottle lids for the snares, snuff cans for the basses and washers for the symbols. For the stands I used BBQ skewers and small wooden round pieces I found at Hobby Lobby to stands. It looked pretty good. I also made bongos from old medicine bottles. I painted them silver and black and made a KISS display for my KISS figures. It looked pretty good. Let your imagination go crazy. Oh, and I built a gong with stand out of the skewers, wooden pieces while cutting out the bottom of a Pringles can and some wire. I think you may like the outcome.

    Thank you for doing a proper tutorial by explaining every detail on what you’re using, how you’re doing it and why! Too many on here play music instead of explaining a stinking’ thing! They need to learn how to be thorough or don’t post.

  • @pab1it05

    As a Luthier i find most of your practices amazingly close to the actual build of an actual stratocaster guitar, including all of your knowledge of the names to each of the separate, actual parts in the construction. it almost felt like an actual build on a micro scale for the woodworking part. Only on suggestion on the over all finish, is to get in there with a 2000 grit sandpaper after the colour and clear coat to really make it stand out.
    Amazing video, keep up the great work.

    I'm a guitarist, not an arts and crafts person, but this not only looks tedious, but is way more difficult than meets the eye. She made it look easy, but the same can be said about playing guitar, until you try it and find out how much goes in to playing well. Very nice job. Good attention to detail and I have to think you are familiar with the instrument and possibly play. If not, still great job either way.

    I never mastered learning to play the guitar, but I was in love with this beautiful, glittery blue electric guitar that was in the window of the local music shop for a few years when I was a teenager.

    @broderp 6 років тому

    Why did I watch this? For those who think they want to do this but are not arts and craft people - DON'T. The list of materials in this is extensive. The fact you will be using so little of them you will have so much left over. Also the final cost of these is will be outrageous given the supply costs. Last, but not least, consider your talent level. This person is very good at what she does and has a lot of experience. Don't expect yours to come out as nice. Will you be satisfied with a mediocre final product? Think before you leap. Now if you are one of those arts and craft people or have most of this stuff lying around and have talent - this is an awesome tutorial.

    The video is well worth watching, I am glad to have stumbled across it. The miniaturization achieved with great skill. Although, there is one thing that can possibly be done, which will give the finish an extra lift in visual appearance. The tongue depressor and the popsicle stick are made from very open grain wood. This prevents a smooth mirror like finish of the guitars, plus the size of the grain "holes" in the finish also take away from the miniaturization scaling. Perhaps as the first step, use a wood or similar filler on the wood to obtain a smooth no grain surface, which once sanded will leave a good surface to work upon.

    Love the detail! Would love to see a complete music room with drums, keyboard, banjo, mics, amps etc, etc. Am I asking too much? You make it all look so easy. Very impressive!

    Amazing job.I would slightly sand the body and neck after painting and then use high gloss spray.
