Piece of art... and sounds unbelievable, feels like should be kept in some museum as a benchmark of a musical instrument. Applause to a creator.
FINALLY!! No pearl! No ugly binding! Almost no abalone on the body! That 's a guitar with a fantastic look! 😊
Yes, but it would be even better without this fretboard "art".
@@Thomas-xs2kq Customer's choice.
@@Thomas-xs2kqagreed!
I am politely envious of your client who commissioned this instrument. From what I can hear, it sounds like Sitka at its finest: articulate, clean, and snappy. Congratulations on such a masterwork of lutherie.
The best guitar anyone has ever made ? Its utterly amazing on every level. It has a soul. Its a tourist attraction. Just stunningly beautiful.
While the inlay is beautifully done, I personally think the guitar would be even more gorgeous without it. Stunning work
Agree. It should have its own identity and not just the eric Clapton guitar
What an amazing instrument! As soon as I started the video, I had to pause it until my wife left for work. I wanted to listen to it without interuption. I knew from your intro that it was going to sound amazing, but I was so struck by the beauty of the guitar, I was still in awe that the tone was equal to Aphrodite looks. Congratulations. I hope I live long enough to see the video where you can claim to have surpassed this one. I can't see how that could happen, this is perfection.
"I had to pause it until my wife left for work. I wanted to listen to it without interuption."
lmao
Man, that ancient spruce is absolutely perfect. The dark binding was the right call for sure. All of the details are incredible. Excellent design taste from the client, and amazing craftsmanship from you sir.
That's one of the few guitars I listened to that the chord/note swells instead of decaying or tapering off. Gona be hard to top that with a top tonewood that's soo rare. Awesome job man, love your passion and heart you put into building those guitars.
I'm only amateur but wow that guitar flies! The depth and range and sustain... it is a sonic and visual wonder! You are also a phenomenal guitarist!
You hit on elegant without being gaudy! I'm milling some native wood from our farm for binding. Had to take down a big Holly and a big Cedar. Both make great binding and rosette accent woods. Love it when a Luthier is willing to use something a bit different!
Just absolutely spectacular. Made me emotional to hear it emerge at the hands of the maker. Thank all do for us!
I haven’t checked your channel for a while, other than sharing vids from it when folks ask me how to fix a ding, adjust a truss rod, set up unslotted pins, etc. I’d watched a bunch of vids about the ancient Sitka build and am stoked to see and hear this beauty. The tone and balance are amazing. Masterpiece work right there! Well built!
Truly a masterpiece, love all the beautiful woods in such a harmony and sound is already mesmerising 👏
What! Man, that is beyond stunning. I don’t typically love glossy guitars, but that is without flaw. Art that generates art.
I loved seeing that guitar in process. Its a unique, beautiful piece of living artwork.
I don't believe I have ever seen a more beautiful guitar! The ancient Sitka looks incredible, the colors really accentuate each other and the slanted armrest as well as the back slant really catch the light and make it look more 3D than just a straight board. Absolutely stunning!
Exceptional! Extraordinary sound!
Gorgeous build! Congratulations...💚🎸
Congratulations! What a stunning result.
Completely floored. Incredible work!

STUNNING build and I absolutely saw the guitar before the inlays
Amazing workmanship! Great sound! How I love to own one.
The color of the top of that guitar is absolutely stunning. What a beautiful instrument and the sound is incredible! Fantastic!!

That has to be most beautiful guitar I have ever seen. . I’m beyond words. Wow the sound is indescribably amazing!
In all aspects beautiful! That must feel nice, congratulations!
That complimentary binding really accentuates the top wood in a way I wouldn’t have imagined, and no abalone looks great. It’s amazing, I do hope there’s mor3 of that to come
Sounds amazing and is an absolute smoke show. Beautiful work here 👏.
The articulation seemed phenominal, great tone, great string to string deffinition, and it looks beautiful 🎉🎉🎉 , great job guys !!!
Looks great man. Love that top wood.
Sounds heavenly!!
Wow this is impressive! The sound comes through really well even over video and to sound like that after 18 hours is nuts
really hard to express in words that tone is fing perfect. Beautiful guitar
Outstanding grain pattern on that ancient spruce top, back and sides are nice too 😊
So awesome that you guys are local to me. Love the content. I’m in Ponce De Leon, but have a home on the bay I frequent. Love the channel!
Wow, if I ever win the lottery I want a Driftwood guitar. What a beautiful sound and a tasteful instrument this is. Made with love.
I can say for sure it is the most beautiful guitar I've seen in my life. That sapwood in the side kills it! Also it sounds very balanced. Some might want more mid scoop, some maybe more bass and warmth, but I think the sound suits the guitar. I'd say it has a dignifying sound.
Amazingly crafted masterpiece. The sound is pleasing. Lots of attention and devotion has gone into bringing this instrument to life. The maker and the purchaser are blessed...
stunning. absolutely stunning.
beautiful sounding guitar. amazing bass/'mid response with high shimmer. wow
WOW!! It's just stunning.
God damn the finish on this guitar is out of this world
Very very elegant in a laid back way. I like it. And it sounds really good !!!!!!!
Wow !!! Took my breath away !!! You’re absolutely right about the sustainability !!! Love it !!!
Great job! I love it!
Lucky Man!! Sounds great
Chris the guitar sounds beautiful. Love the range and size of the instrument. Loved your playing at the end. Great to see what a very good musician can make besides beautiful music.
That guitar is unreal!! Everything about it is spot on! What a Masterpiece!!❤
Beautiful!!!BRAVO!!!
Wow. Thats actually the best sounding acoustic I've ever heard. Putting one of these on my bucket list. Congrats on this Masterpiece.
i have learned a lot from you man thanks !!!!!!
Truly a master! Totally brilliant! An object of perfection imaging the core of your skill, character and personality.
The first thing I noticed from the first chord was the sustain! Could probably ring for days. I love the darker wood binding and accents. Gives me ideas for when I can order my guitar. Well done.
Beautiful guitar!
Like a black tuxedo with just enough flair.
BEAUTIFUL craftsmanship. Beautiful sound.
Take a bow.
Oh my, you have created the most beautiful guitar I have ever seen. I listen to it a second time on my speakers. The sound is not only crisp but it is alive and you can feel the depth when you turn it up.
This would be a family heirloom
I just became a subscriber.
Wow! What a work of art. Supreme craftsmanship. Probably the prettiest guitar I've ever.
Absolutely Gorgeous!
Loveliest guitar and best sustain and tone that I’ve ever seen or heard in any guitar. Total masterpiece!
Holy Toledo and a side of gravy... that is a piece of art that sounds like a million bucks. You absolutely killed it!! Stunning!!
As you showed us the tone woods and build details, I was so taken with that component I wondered if the sound could be more than the sum of its parts. Yup 👍🏻 the sound is wonderful! Congratulations! 🎉
Beautiful work ❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥
Wow! A real work of art. Truelly magnificent looking and beautiful sounding guitar and the Clapton inlay is just stunning. Great job!
Many thanks!
