Hey guys, future owner of the guitar here. Just wanted to say that I'm incredibly happy with what Mark has done by building me this absolute dream guitar! Alexi was my personal guitar hero and what/who got me interested in lead guitar in the first place (even though I'm usually a strict rhythm player), so naturally I was absolutely devastated by the news of his death and wanted to honor him and his legacy as much as possible. Got in contact with Mark in early/mid-February and once we figured out exactly what I wanted and what base guitar we needed to turn the vision into reality, the project started. Customer communication was a breeze and Mark was always very open to suggestions down the line, even keeping up with all the nitty-gritty details I kept pestering him with down the line (sorry!).
All in all, I'm super thankful and I can't recommend Marks services enough! No matter whether you're looking for something basic or something more extravagant, he will find a way to pull it off for you.
wow that’s great i’m glad mark was able to make you a really awesome guitar 🎸🤘🏻i too am sadden by Alexi passing at such a young age,enjoy your dream guitar
Amazing bro! So happy Mark was able to make your dream come true! Rock on !
Excellent taste indeed bro stay safe, cheers!!!!
How come that rr has convential headstock over the reverse?
@@howtoshootstraighthtss4948 Alexi's had the normal one and I prefer the non-reversed headstock on a Rhoads. Warriors or King Vs look better with the reversed one though
Hey Mark. With paint bleeding, once you've finished your masking spray the base colour over the tape, or a clear coat. Spraying the base colour (in this case, yellow) it will seal the small air pockets in the masking tape. once it's dried, spray your top coat colour/finish, and it should have a nice sharp edge when the tape is removed. Try on some practice pieces first of course.
Michael, this indeed the best technique to mitigate bleeding
I never thought of that, makes a lot of sense
This is a trick of the trade of painters
Thanks for sharing we need more youngers to the trade!!!!!!!!!
Great looking geetar. As a fellow Finn, I still tear up every time Alexi Laiho is mentioned 😥
A couple things to correct: ALL of his signature models were Rhoads-style Vs. He never had a traditional V shape. Although the USA ESP signature models he had definitely had a little bit of a longer horn compared to the Japanese ones. Stupid copyright laws. He had also been known to use the ESP Eclipse live with The Local Band. Also, COB formed in 1993 as Inearthed. :)
Very well done rebuild! Looks and sounds great!
6:38 i just had to say that here in finland Alexi would constantly be popping up in magazines like Soundi,Inferno and Kaaoszine. And right after he died the magazine Soundi had a collection of statements made by alexi pictures of him & old releases etc. Just thought it might be nice to know
Also nice video that guitar is CLEAN
Is that how I found out that he hit women when living in the streets? It sucks how he was put in that situation, but obviously his life overall ended up being better than most though he might’ve committed suicide.
Alexi Laiho forever in our lives 🤘 RIP Alexi 💔😭
Great episode Mark, probably my favorite. The wild child tribute turned out beautiful! Really appreciated the time given to honor Alexi!!!
Love this tribute to Alexi! Thank you for the great content!
Always love hearing you shed a little on the mods you do ! Please keep doing that in your vids . It’s the money shot hearing it sing when youve finished working on it ....
Love how this episode is not only about the guitar, but a tribute to the man himself, great job!
This show and builds keep getting better and better, keep it Mark! Cheers!
Awesome job! Alexi was one of a kind! He had a huge impact on my life and he will always live on thru his music and in our hearts! R.I.P. brother!
I love how you dive into alexi info. Thanks
Literally was about to do this to an old Jackson X Series RR I got twenty years ago.
Keep this up man. Absolutely love this series. You're on to something good.
What a beautiful instrument! Awesome job!
Another incredible build! Well done man! 🤘🏻
looks amazing man! keep it up i love the content
i love that guitar
That guitar turned out Great!, Looks and sounds amazing, man.
Great job!!
That guitar is soo sic! Keep up the great work!!!
Tip for clean lines on the bevels my dude: After you've taped off the bevels, spray a coat of the color you've already sprayed before taping (in this case, the yellow) That way, when you spray the 2nd color (in this case, black) over that, the yellow has already bled through the tape onto the prior coat of yellow and creates a "wall" so you don't get the bleed-through of the other color. This is not so easily done on a Frankenstrat style paint job where there are 3 colors, but for dual-color, it works FABULOUSLY.
WTF This is amazing and so cool! Always loved that guitar of his.
I'm hyped for this
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed it!
Hell yeah thank you!
Awesome work ,thank you for the detailed information on the finishing ,I just love refurbishing old guitars ,painting rebuilding ,and bringing back to life ,and your techniques are a great boost to this hobby ,I wish I had more time ,and could do it for a living also ,maybe some day ! Those gold tuners really make it Rhoadish for sure ,keep up the great work ,and great videos!
I love your builds as always. Killer
Alexi Laiho!!!He will be missed!
Awesome!! I'm a huge Alexi Laiho fan and never knew about his 3 favourite Guitar solos by Kirk Hammett. cool!! And I love that You explained so clearly all the modifications made on this guitar ❤️
I've built a couple guitars for myself but you sir have inspired me to make a couple of my old guitars great again, including an iron age killswitch.Thank you so much
Killer work, Mark! I have the same Rhoads axe, it's white, with neck binding, black pinstripes. I took the original pickgaurd off, made one out of polished aluminum. It looks amazing with the black hardware. I wired it for one volume pot, moved it back, so the volume knob is not in the way of my pick hand. I love that axe! Your work is stellar. Keep it up!!
freaking awesome job
Damnnn Mark my Man,Demo was Awesome!!!
Wow Mark, fantastic job man. You have inspired me a lot in recent weeks watching the transformations with these guitars. I have an old les Paul that's been sitting in the closet for a while just because it won't stay in tune. So I'm going to fix the dings and scratches. Custom paint it and trying if the Floyd rose fxr models ti keep it in tune. Keep it up just wanted you to know that what your doing is really motivating.
WOW !! I love that "Wild Child" !! Makes me really want a Rhodes "V" !! Great job !!
It’s super awesome, I can see why.
Wonderful wonderful work!
Beautiful guitar!!!!
Another killer guitar guts Mod! Great job Mark !
Thanks so much Jim, we got two colors on your guitar and the pickguards cut… it’s getting close 😁🤘🏼
Beautiful guitar 😍
Damn dude. Beautiful!
I definitely met the band children of bone I have an autographed from the entire band saw them in concert and got an autograph one of my favorite bands they're awesome amazing cool down-to-earth really cool band and I got into children to Bone when no one even heard of this band and that was the early early early 80s into the 90s soon yes and I knew that I knew this band before everybody else picked up they were still underground back in the day what a great band
Congratulations on your work. It's amazing how much you've evolved! Great job. I wish I lived closer. I would send you more than one guitar. A hug!
Loving this channel
Dang !!! I love the black and yellow. Nice job man. I just found your channel. I will be checking out more.
Cheers Mark !!!
R.I.P. Alexi Laiho
Saw your channel mentioned in a recent episode of Boxes in the Kitchen on Agufish's channel. Coincidentally this is the exact type of content I have been looking for. This scratches the same itch the High Integrity series itches for me. Glad I discovered you.
Hey Mark! I'm not a painter, but I work at a paint department in a hardware store. I was always getting questions about painters tape and paint bleed - among other things. One day, I did a test of my own. I tried out a bunch of different tapes that the store marked down to see what's the best tape. To my surprise, clear masking tape - those small rolls that are less than $1 and come in those plastic dispensers, worked better than any of the others I tested. Now this was water-based paint I was testing, not sure how oil-based will work. But hey, it's food for thought. Cheers!
Bellissima, sei un grande!
What a great channel! Subscribed!
Rip Alexi! Seriously one damn talented guitar player that went out to early.. just a recommendation but wondering if it’s possible to do chuck schuldiner from the band “Death” guitar. Now I’m not talking about his signature stealth, there was a guitar he used around the spiritual healing and human tours, I believe it was a axtra guitar?, there’s only pictures of him using it, it looks like the stealth but kinda melty and sharp, seriously I don’t think that guitar made it into the circuit to have them be mass produced but it would seriously be an interesting project for sure
Excellent idea I’m a huge death fan I’ll definitely put this on my list
I'm super curious I've never seen this guitar do you have a link you could send me? I'm a big death fan as well but I've never heard of this before
@@h_exterm2779 hopefully the link worked, it’s seriously a awesome looking guitar
@@vincentzombi3916 youtube sucks lol I can't see a link. What did you look up to find it?
@@h_exterm2779 damn well go on google and search “chuck schuldiner axtra guitar” there’s like 3 or 4 photos of him in a blondie shirt with that guitar!! I believe axtra made it just for him so it never got mass produced sadly
This color pattern always reminds me of Stryper!!
you could probably create a whole ass company if you hire enough people, you could become a big name if you keep up the amazing work
That's awesome. I played the one solo, sanitarium, and eruption. Eddie and Kirk got me all kinds of ass. Haha. Sick build mark. This season is shaping up to be killer. Love what your doing. Rock on!!!!
I was waiting for this
Really cool build and really fun video. Hope the owner will enjoy the guitar, he chose a nice design.
Awesome job, dude.
Huge fan of Alexi when I was growing up and jealous of the future owner of this beauty.
It's always difficult to find the old Jackson Stars Rhoads and just RR24's that had just one pickup.
Fade To Black - is not only my favorite Kirk Hammett lead, but my favorite song! Took me awhile to learn, so I play it whenever I a chance!!
Iron Age makes some cool stuff, I've ordered tons of stuff from their website!
That's basically my dream guitar! Alexi was such a sick player, but if you look at old pictures, it's almost an exact replica of Danny Spitz's Rhoads from Anthrax's earlier days. AWESOME!
Use 3M 06405 fineline tape. Comes in a variety of sizes, doesn't bleed
Came here to say this!! You'll never use masking tape again once you try this stuff.
I love this show!!! Just gets better and better!!!Thanks Mark!!!and I'd say "star spangled banner" By:Jimi Hendrix my other friends that also play guitar always enjoy when I play it cause when I was 16 I sat in my room for a few weeks and learned the whole "Jimi Hendrix Woodstock" album note by note and song by song.🤘👍
That came out great. I'm a big Jackson fan (my first guitar was a PS4) and I love Alexa. Great job. I love that version of the Floyd. I think you had the space on the body to doubt.for the D tuna.
to avoid leaks from the black in to the yellow . first spray a second layer yellow once masked and then after it dries you paint it black. then you will get the cleanest lines possible . the second layer yellow paint will act as att leak stop .
killer guitar
Godamn!!!! Oh Wow ! This is my favorite project video. Alexi was my teenage guitar hero and his guitars are inspiring ! I’m a superstrat guy (ibanez,suhr,musicman) I don’t like Flying V or explorer shape and something like that .Not my kind BUT Alexi Jackson and ESP these are the exception to own it . I’m realy happy to see this « forgotten »beauty again. Congrats !
This is so sick! Rhoads V’s are the best!
Hey GuitarGuts! About the masking tape thing, try 3M's 218 line. Its really thin and flexible, its used in automotive painting often and comes in several different widths, all the way down to 1/8". It takes a bit more time up front, you'll have to lay your pattern, then re-tape off the rest of the guitar since this stuff doesn't cover much area. But, its much more precise and easier to work with over typical masking/painters tape. Also, for bleed through; once you have your base color down, run your stripes or whatever design you are going for, then lay another thin coat of the base color over the tape and let it dry. This will create a bearer or seal of base color over the tape and will stop the accent color from bleeding into the base coat. Hope this helps!
Use the blue or green tape, but after you get the tape down, use some silicone applied thinly to the edge of the tape so seal in an air tight seal between the wood and the tape! Did this without tape too when painting house trim
Makes me think of Stryper more than anything else.
When using any masking tape l always rub firmly along the edge of the taped lines with a q tip (cotton buds we call em in the uk) a few minutes spent doing this prevents bleed through for me 😎🙏🏻
Best wishes from the north west of England
Jay
😎👍
That black and yellow is badass
The wild child is my dream guitar. Alexi was the Guy that got me into playing guitar.
Holy shit that’s beautiful. I currently have an LTD Alexi signature but would love to have something like this made someday.
With matte clear it's helps the longevity to do some flow coats. The oils in your fingers will definitely wear on those flatter clears
goddamn that Wild Child looks beautiful! next build you should try to replicate Doyle Wolfgang Von Frankenstein’s Annihilator guitar, there isn’t too much information about it on the internet but that guitar always looked so eye-catching and menacing, especially with all the spikes, I think that would be a sick build!
Love the direction of the channel this series! Your video structure has been well thought out, very similar to the style of car restoration shows. I think you giving lots of information about the idea behind the project (In this case Alexi) brings a lot to the content, really good to see the research has been done. Keep it up and you will attract more viewers! Also might be worth reaching out to other Guitar UA-camrs to maybe find some collaboration space, maybe do a project for them or have you customize something for a givaway on their channel.
Only thing I would bring up is that if you have the same sponsor for a few videos then you should have a different clip for each (I know its a pain, but people are more likely to skip if its the exact same thing everytime. You could look at a channel like Linus Tech Tips where they read sponsors per shoot.
Anyway keep it up! Support from Scotland
Wish it had a wild child decal and an ebony fretboard too. Either way, looks stunning and did an amazing job. Cheers 🍻
the secret with masking tape (any masking tape) is to microwave it in 5 second bursts until the tape is slightly warm before applying it; its much easier to get it to sit flat and make corner bends repeat the process each time to roll cools, this trick also works for pinstripe lines. In my graphic design program we had to paint scales in gauche paint it was incredibly difficult and we were graded on craftmanship points like clean straight tape lines perfectly creased folds on vellum paper which is basically tissue paper. gauche is a pigment heavy paint that needs to be thinned constantly as it thickens in air paint viscosity is also a key factor in how cleanly the lines pull and how flat the finish sits but i'm sure you know.
Alexi is one of my top 3 favorite guitarists-Joe Satch and Yngwie being the other two. Gone too soon. 41 years young! He was the baby of the bunch-RJD, Lemmy, Leslie, Philthy, etc. Extremely talented and off the walls!
Bro that MH1000 is awesome, I think I saw the same guitar on Instagram
The all yellow was nice
Great video kindly add more working on guitar working sections
Only just found this channel, WOW I love it. I would really love to get the black Janick Gers (Iron Maiden) strat made up is that possible at all.
Also, the way I get crisp edges is vase coat, tape it off, drop another medium thin layer of paint over the tape edge, then do the second colour. Works every time
trash to thrash is such a good name and idea...
The one solo is sick
I wouldn't be stuck with this username for more than a decade if it wasn't for his influential playing!
I came across your stream and on your UA-cam channel and I like what you do the guitars are sick cool you're really talented really awesome I can imagine what they sound like and everything and maybe someday I'll get a guitar from you guys I was thinking about a warlock but I want a one-of-a-kind warlock that is awesome and well-built and sound God amazing maybe someday I'll have the Warlock that I always wanted that looks amazing sick killer and everything that would be a really cool project from you guys I really enjoy what you guys do keep up the good work he guys make really awesome cool guitars
🤘❤️🤘
Amazing guitar, did you consider using a matching yellow Jackson logo, that would have been killer.
Great video
This guitar is f🤬ing awesome 🤘🏻🔥
Greetings from Brazil 🤘🏻🇧🇷
Thanks so much!🤘🏼🤘🏼
Your work is awesome, I'm a huge fan of Alexi and C.O.B since the late 90's. Thank you so much for this amazing tribute. Your channel is f🤬ing great dude 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
You know I love my Gotoh G1996T trems, Gotoh is one of the only companies who consistently make lefty parts, almost as a standard...
just found this channel thankfully. Question could you route out the pull drop D thing just under the area to allow for the later part of the Floyd rose
I’ve got an old, goth black Epiphone SG that I decided to wire active/passive, with the EMG 81 on the bridge and then for the neck, some incredibly fat passive neck pickup that added some weight and tone to any leads I was playing, in those days, I had to wing it, because I couldn’t find a wiring diagram for active/passive, as it seemed like everyone chose either all active like Zakk Wilde or all passive live Dimebag. I’d like a three pickup black beauty with a big baby tremolo featuring two EMG and one DiMarzio. I do not know that such a thing exists, but you would probably be the guy to make it happen! All these years playing mostly active pickups, and these days I couldn’t imagine playing any rhythm without EMG level sustain and clarity.
hey Mark love the episode and the guitar came out killer 🤘🏻🎸, why not do a dime bag Darrell Dean ML tribute guitar, dean makes that model left-handed so I would say make two of them one right handed one left they don’t have to match you can make them two separate design concepts, I’m sure they would sell or be great for the patron giveaway keep up the great work 👍
Idk why but for they past few days I've had the song disposable heroes on my mind
Awesome work, it would be cool to see a custom LTD F series. I have one and wana customize it but I’m not sure what to do woth it
I want one of those LED kill switches for my Wolfgang..
Rip Alexi, drinking did it to him. What a shame. Nice job on that guitar 👍
I just played Children Of Bodom songs and that impressed people cuz there songs aren't easy but I like it that way it's more fun in my opinion
If you just run a plastic scraper across the mask edge applying slight pressure it will solve any bleeding issues with the green 3m
🔥🔥🌋Beautiful 🌋🔥🔥
I LOVE that wolf astronaut t shirt! Where did you get it from? Also great build!
I love single pickup Vs with Floyd rose bridges and active pickups.
