    I’ll be honest This “Burnt Finish” was a gamble. It seems 50/50 love vs hate. But to grow and develop as an artist I think we need to take risks. This was that moment for me. I personally been wanting to try this for a while. Given the time crunch it was the time to try it. In hind site the ruff face and the ruff side needed to be a contrast (not the same) for this concept to truly work.
    Maybe The side band Would work better in polished chrome. Thanks you to the folks a crimson and Thank you to all for watching and supporting my channel. Now you can buy the ugliest guitar on UA-cam all money goes to charity.

    Honestly, I usually dislike burned finishes on wood, it kind of just looks lazy. But I haven't ever seen it taken to the next level of complimenting it with wrought(?) iron like this. It looks so complete and makes the shiny accents pop. This looks fantastic and industrial and built to last through an apocalypse (or already having lived through one). I love it!

    @jaredmccutcheon5496 4 роки тому +4

    I was skeptical for about 85% of the build, lol, but ultimately it worked in the end and I liked it. I was hoping it would get sanded a bit before it was finished just to refine the rustic a little bit.. would have been cool to have some edges burnt a little more than the field of the body for some contrast and then have all that polished guitar gear in the mix. Jimmy always pulls it off though, the steel band made the piece IMO.

    This Guitar was clearly thrown together with little care, the tuners are on upside down, the finish looks dreadful and the neck may as well have been ignored, no time spent on it whatsover besides a name stamp. It plays about as good as it looks too, sounds like it can't even stay in tune. Oh, and lets not forget the lack of promoting a worthy charity just something that will line your own pockets, you missed the point completely it seems. People are 50/50 on it? Nope I'm pretty sure they hate it. Come on dude, you can do better.

    • @ALisMedium

The whole feel of it - no mention of the charity this is for (though an advert for your clothing brand, seriously?!) - no effort - no care. The machine heads are upside down for a start. I have no issue particularly with the final finish, not my taste, and I respect people who try things, but that's not the issue with this at all. Just compare the guitar with the Texas Toast entry, compare the video with the Brad Angove videos and the difference is stark.

      @@joejoe8472 I don't buy it... I think that's total crap. You're telling me someone with Jimmy's reputation would enter a competition with his peers, be given a high quality guitar kit, be given the opportunity to raise loads of money for a charity of his choice and genuinely help people, have a huge platform to inspire other people and create something truly unique but instead decided to ignore all that and just troll people? C'mon dude, Just because you may like the guy doesn't mean you can't critique their work. Your point of view is completely delusional. He rushed through the build and built something very lack luster with a lot of flaws, clearly there's a lack of real effort here and you only need to look at his back catalogue to see this. Stop making excuses and call it what it is... Mediocre at best.

      Far beyond bad, I'm afraid. There's an utter lack of care, planning and cohesion in the design.
      Nothing but the work of a worthless slacker, surely not the passionate work you'd expect for a charity-driven contest.
      If I were to end up with such a piece of shit, the last thing I would be doing would be putting my name on it.
