    Really cool! As a side note, your main channel is your brand, but YOU are your brand - I really love the idea of us getting a peak into the Tom behind the Buck on this channel! It's so clear everything you and Heather do comes from the heart, so really appreciate everything you put out.

      Thanks Kane! This is a fun project for me, and I'm happy that others enjoy it too! I love the "big" channel of course, but I don't want to risk hurting what I've built by throwing a wrench in to the works (in this case the wrench being unrelated videos).

      Have you ever heard of Warmoth? You can piece together your own custom guitar from the ground up and you can have them finish it, or you can get the raw materials and do it all yourself. I've never done it, but I've always wanted to.

      Thanks! I'm excited too- it's a really good chance to just have some fun and use/experiment with my gear in a different way. Most of this was filmed with the GoPro10, and it was so fun! I learned a lot about that camera over the weeks of making this.

      @@TOMBUCK2 You might not get notified of this comment but I have to ask anyway...was some of the footage shot with the RED camera? After seeing the test footage on Heathers vlogs, I thought some of the footage here was similar looking...there's a "smoothness" to it...
      And wow, I never would have guessed that most footage was from the GoPro...it matches up with your in-studio, talking head shots ...which I assume was shot with one of the Sony's?

    ..i don't know yet play guitar, but i bought a while ago, 3..one electric, one acoustic and one classic..all have incorporated tuning, and output for amplifier..was my first contact with audio .. I like a lot diy ! Best time for painting however, is when it is not windy and dry hot shadow.. I I like lime color a lot! I searched on google translator, and yeah, i believe it is greenhouse, but small, where wind don't affect result..like car painting.. a tip for next time project, sand between layers. ..this is just being picky..lol..it turned out great!

    • @TOMBUCK2
      @TOMBUCK2  2 роки тому

      I've seen the little greenhouse things and they seem nifty. I wasn't too worried about perfection here though. And don't worry, there was a lot of sanding that I didn't film 😁

    Fun video! I bought a Fender Squier Strat back in the 1980s. Too bad I sold it long ago -- this looks like a great way to bring one back to life!

    • @TOMBUCK2
      @TOMBUCK2  2 роки тому

      I think newer Squier stuff is supposed to be really nice (like the quality of MIM Fenders from 15 years ago), but this one definitely wasn't the best when I got it 😁

    Too many guitar wizards say tone comes from good electronics and the players style & hands. So you actually did make a good economic move repurposing an old junker than buying a $1,000+ super strat. I’m jealous of this project. One day I will follow your lead. I do wish you had scrapped squire off and stenciled on “Enthused” or “Buck.”

    • @TOMBUCK2

    Subbed and curious what you will share in the future.
