    Cool looking guitar, love the color and pattern of the body looks very tropical, like bamboo, goes great with the maple neck too, great build Mike, and the video of the build was perfect, Thanks.

    If you go into production of these, the company I work for sells 13 ply maple cutoffs from our production (about 15X60 inches and some smaller also) I'm sure it's cheaper that full sheets particularly during Covid(of course you would have to live near Wisconsin) Liked the guitar. Hi Ezra.

    First thing you should do is present the guitar sound without effect, then you test with effect, but what will define the sound quality is the clean guitar.

    I don't think effects on a video are bad, but you should definitely show clean, and effects. Is there a reason you don't want to show off the clean sound?

    • @MakeWithMiles
      @MakeWithMiles  3 роки тому +2

      Thanks! I'm pretty new to the guitar world and I didn't foresee people wanting it to sound clean, I was just having too much fun with the pedals... So there's not really a reason I didn't, it sounds great clean though 😅

    • @crosencrans1
      @crosencrans1 3 роки тому

      @@MakeWithMiles The big reason for people wanting to hear it clean I assume is because it is good to hear the intonation and sound of the pickups without being covered by an insane amount of effects. Effects can be used to cover up a bad sounding guitar. I have never built a guitar, so the intonation and overall sound of the guitar is what interests me, because I may want to guy one of these kits. But a bad sounding guitar could be 1 of 2 things, bad build, or bad design from the kit. Before I buy the kit, I want to know they are designed well. If a beginner can make a clean sound, that is a REALLY good sign of a well designed kit

    • @djeev1
      @djeev1 3 роки тому

      Nice guitar, but I think what you need is to give some clear tones. In this video the tone you are using, gives the feeling that we are missing some Amp + cab simulations. A bit of compression will also help. Anyway you did great job you by bulding this guitar. Also what is the tape you are using to cover the guitar before drilling holes ? Can you give a link to it please. Many thanks.
