    Thank you for watching the video!
    This time, I built a Telecaster using a bass pickup.
    I used maple for the neck and alder for the body.
    I was looking forward to seeing what the sound would be like, but it turned out to be much better than I expected!
    I hope your guitar life be enriched :)

      私もこのアイデアにしてた!けど、Jazz Bassの形だから、あなたのTeleに比べてちょっと違います。Casino Guitarsのチャネルで見られる。「Baxter vs UA Pedal - The Ruby」というビデオだよ。

    I suspect the guitar is more versatile than the very limited demo shows.

    So cool! The color you got for the body is the exact color I am planning on trying to get on the telecaster I am building currently. I hope I can pull it off. I‘ve got some amber colored TransTint dye that I will dilute a bit. Hope it works. Yours looks awesome, I think!

    Nicely done! I liked the first attempt at color, as well as the second color about the same. I'm a bit partial to the orange color spectrum on guitars. I assume you were going for the butterscotch look?
    I'm not sure I would have ever thought to use bass guitar pickups in any six string guitar. What was your motivation for using them?

      Thanks for commenting!
      I'm glad you praised me 😊
      I aimed for butterscotch for the body color!
      I installed a bass pickup because I wanted to experiment to see what would happen.
      thank you!

    Dコードのときに特にリアで揺らいでるように聴こえるのはPUのせいでしょうか?
    弾き方ですか?
    それにしても面白い発想のギターですね。弦間も違うし、本数も違うからちゃんと鳴るのか?とか思いましたが…
    特徴的な音でおもしろいですね

    • @JohnZeus-fi4em
      @JohnZeus-fi4em  Місяць тому +1

      コメントありがとうございます!
      音の揺らぎは私の弾き方が原因かと思います。
      演奏がイマイチで心苦しく思っております、、、
      そうおっしゃって頂けて、本当に嬉しい限りです。
      やってみないと分からないことが多いのがギター製作の面白い所ですね!

    Hi. A little dark at times. A broader summary of tones ( distortion types, single note response etc. ) would have supported the concept a little more comprehensively. Nevertheless a sound build and looking forward to more of your work. 👍

    Well, that is an unorthodox pickup choice. I've seen bass guitars using pickups meant for 6 string guitars, but not the other way around. I'm interested in your thought process. Why did you decide to do it that way?

      Actually, I've always been interested in what would happen if I put a bass pickup on a guitar, so I decided to try it as an experiment.

    why mask off the truss rod when you already plastered the fretboard with glue all over? seems strange to me.

      It creates a safe margin, so the glue won't fall into the truss rod slot when the fretboard is clamped, and prevents truss rod locking.
