I love watching you build guitars. I want to thank you for adding voice overs to your videos. Much more informative than watching you work in silence.
The skills on display here are pretty incredible, thank you so much for sharing your work, its really inspiring.
I think there are a lot of people that don’t really comprehend what goes into making a Guitar by hand, and think they’re “overpriced” at times. They prob have an image of machines making them in a factory.
This was super in depth, amazing work, and overall an enjoyable watch. That’s a gorgeous piece of work!
You basically gave away your hearts work for a good cause!
This is what UA-cam was meant to be in the beginning. To shown craft skills that actually make things.
YES! I love that.
I remember those days.
Yep…
Вот вот
I enjoy your builds so much - I always feel that what you are showing is so understandable. This video with voice over was no exception, just full of why and how you do each step. The joy you bring to people through your builds, has to be greatly rewarding. Again thank you for sharing!!!
You're welcome
Thoroughly enjoyable video that is packed with: innovation, cleverness, expertise, and humility. Thank you!
Love the video with the added voiceover. Very interesting.
You do extraordinarily beautiful work on those Guitars!! And to sell them for the price you did! Wow!! You know you could make allot of $$ building and selling “Hand built” guitars… I know if I was able to, I’d definitely buy one!
Gabriele it is a privilege to watch you work. Beautiful guitar and I appreciate your conservationist philosophy and interesting combination of old and modern methods.
Gabriele Réti You are so gifted. Thank you for all your hard work in bringing to us your Art. This in my opinion is Art . Not just an awesome Craft.
Amazing... Absolutely top shelf work. Thank you very much for sharing this! $600 is a steal for this level of build. You've really done a public service.
Beautiful as usual! Thank you for sharing!
My jaw dropped when you mentioned the price you asked. Some students are getting the deal of a lifetime. These are quite possibly the best looking standard, non-premium acoustics I've seen in my life. Well done. Just... well done. If I lived in Deutschland I'd be seriously pestering you for guitar making tuition!
Fantastic skill as always Gabriele. Thank you
Sounds amazing!! Great work!!
Just beautiful. Great sound too. Very rich. You play well also. Thank you for sharing.
I am so impressed with what I am hearing and seeing great job.
That is an absolutely lovely guitar! And it shows that you don’t have to use fancy woods to build a great instrument, very inspiring. Thank you
Absolutely beautiful guitar build. Love the look feel and sound of this guitar. You make it look so easy.
Thank you for another excellent display of your talent.
This is beyond AMAZING. Blessings to your talents.
Great video Gabi, and the guitar looks and sounds lovely👍😁
Your skills are impressive. Thanks for sharing this video.
Wonderful approach and skilful execution.
I love watching your work, it's awesome that you sing while you build
Very enjoyable to watch. Thank you!
That guitar sounds really bright! Nice sound. You did a great job on this project. Can't wait to see your next project.
Amazing build, love your style and signing while working. 😄
Very good work, for a very good result!
Thats the vest sounding acoustic I've heard in a long long time thank you for sharing with us
a beautiful musical instrument,Perfect
I absolutely love the use of repurposed lumber. The aged sound it produces when done with your craftsmanship is fantastic. Thank you for giving us a look into the artisan skill you have.
A great informative and educational video. Fantastic guitar!
I love this guitar. Good sound and Amazing wood work.
Dear Gabriele, thanks alot for the great content!
Always nice to watch a build....and the whistling whilst you work. I really dig the bridge clamp. Simple, smart, elegant solution. ✌️
It was so satisfying and relaxing to watch the video. I hope to build my own guitar one day soon. Thank you!
A lot of interesting info in the commentary. Thank you...
beautiful Guitar.. Very well done.
Wonderful, as usual. Thanks for adding your commentary - it really helps viewers to understand what you're doing and why. You're fast becoming very proficient at this UA-cam game!
Wow ! Thanks for taking the time to make this video . I found it very therapeutic .
WOW!! So very impressive.
Wow…enjoyed the build. Beautiful guitar that you played very nicely!
Yahoo! You're inspiring me to another build. I've made one before which turned out well but it's wonderful to watch what you do. Thank you.
Very impressive. Thanks from south Texas.
Wow, such an inspiration! I'm so glad I found your channel. Keep up the good work.
A true artist. I would love one and I don't even know how to play! Thank you for sharing. Best wishes!
Absolutely amazing, I have been toying with the idea of building a acoustic for awhile now, but after watching you and the skill you posses I am moving forward ,I will watch this and your other videos over and over, thank you for the inspiration!
That’s beautiful! I want one. You make it look so easy that I could do it. I’m sure I would fail.but one day I will. Is encouraging seeing you do it with minimal tools. Thanks!
I am thanking UA-cam for recommending this. This is awesome and I just got into making instruments and you explain it so well :D Thank you thank you!
Love this...guitar sounds very nice and will only get better!
Absolutely Love this video, thank you for sharing your craft.!
The headstock overlay "sandwich" is genius. Decorative, beautiful instrument with a wonderful warm tone. Bravo!
gabriele that was a realy nice job i enjoyed not only the video but your workmanship and your music thank you very much, and good luck with your fund raising.
I really enjoyed the narration and build, thank you!
Watching you work without commentary is very meditative, but your commentary adds another dimension to your video. I like both.
Beautiful work. Also very interesting seeing your unique approach to certain aspects of building the instrument
Very beautiful and sounding guitar love it
This is incredibly beautiful.
You absolutely did one hell of a job on this. It really turned out beautifully and sounds fantastic.
I most definitely hit the like button and subscribe. Looking forward to watching more from you.
You play very well, you are a excellan craftspersonf and that guitar has a beautiful tone. Well done. Keep on smiling.
Thank you SO much for taking the trouble to add your commentary. I have worked with wood, in a cabinet-maker's shop, before; and I consider myself fortunate to have had that job AFTER 20 years as a Handyman/wood-butcher. So I was able to appreciate the beauty of the wood working. I'm glad to learn of your view on finishes, too - I agree that wood should be sealed but able to breathe somewhat. Now, I like an electric guitar to gleam like a show-car, but for acoustics, the sound is more important; and finishes can be touched up or renewed.
Nice, thanks for sharing. Lovely sound at the end which was great to hear.
Very nice guitar! I really enjoy your videos and beautiful workmanship. 😊
An amazing build . I particularly like your work with hand tools. It already sounds good as to the age of the recycled woods. Well done, once again , Gabriele, and you sold them so cheaply. Also, I don't know what the voice 0vr means but your English is perfect. Thank you.
Im really love the way you work. Your guitars looks pretty good. ❤
Amazing work!
You are very skilled.
That thing is absolutely amazing & her craftsmanship impeccable!
Now I question as to where I could possibly get me meaty paws on one in western West Virginia.
That tone is so deep and richly inspiring to say the least! ❤️
Well, if you follow my builds of the GGB0 2023 for the Invitational category, there's the chance of winning one in the Daily Guitar Draw.
Apart from that I'm thinking of building two mor eguitars for another raffle...
The requested commentary works well, thanks for the extra effort!
i love the sounds of the guitar that you made , hope someday i own a guitar like that .... HAPPY NEW YEAR
I've always enjoyed watching your ASMR vidéos.... But making them with a voice over wow ! Loved it
And you are just a great skillefull guitar maker... All the best from Algeria❤️
Beautifuuly guitar ❤
Thank you for this video
Beautiful job!!!
It sounds as good as it looks.!
same tonal qualities as high end guitars excellent work thanks for posting you should get big money for that easy
Well, in the video you hear for much I gave it away. It was supposed to be affordable for students.
Very nice box with wires on it. JERRY ROSA, JIM OLSON, AND YOU, SURE ENJOY YOUR WORKS.
A very nice video! I actually learned almost everything I know from guitar building from Ben :)
Wonderful work, pretty interesting video and I love the fact that you sing while working
😄
That wood looks very nice to work with.
I’ve made a number of acoustic guitars, dreadnoughts, jumbo and a small bodied guitars from old pianos (some over 100 yrs old) which people are happy to give away. They have lots of spruce in the soundboards though in varying qualities of grain patterns. I have used the woods from the piano sides which are often birch or polar for guitar sides which are softwoods. Even though they sound very good I came to the realisation that hard woods are needed for strength of the soundbox plus the reflective properties of hardwoods like mahogany, rosewood etc. that contribute to their sonic properties. Making guitars is like making a cake, you use all the best ingredients but don’t know how it tastes until you hit the first chord. 😀
Very gifted artist. Most builders would do well to take an efficiency course from you.
A very talented lady👍
Thank you for this video - The guitar turned out beautifully and it sounds great. It was really interesting to hear your commentary on the build. It is wonderful to be able to see such craftsmanship.
Thanks.
Watching your work has inspired me to finish up a couple projects that have been hanging around for far too long. I've made some mistakes as I've moved along but half the learning is fixing your mistakes. Keep up the videos!
Hey, I compeltely agree the making mistakes and learning from them. What I love about working with wood is that basically almost every mistake can be fixed. Keep on going. Can we see some of the products?
Found you through the GGBO2021. You make some lovely instruments and great commentary on this!!!
Wonderful job!
Thank you for such an informative video, your commentary is excellent. I am hoping to build an acoustic next year and watching this on 30 Dec 22 so you can guess what my New Years resolution will be. This is a wonderful guitar, I’m sure I’ve seen this featured in the Christmas calendar videos. Thank you so much. Cheers Dave
Hi, Dave. This one wasn't in the calendar because I built this for a student of mine and it's gone. But you've seen one of the same body of wood on 22 December (the one in that video was the original so to speak after which I built the other one in this video). Good luck with your build.
Very cool congratulations. Greetings from Hungary!
Sounds fantastic.
guitar for the typical guitar player. I loved!
Ótima Luthier! Trabalho e arte muito bem feito! Lindo violão e com ótimo som. Saudações do Brasil!
The voice over is great! I play around with guitar building for my own personal use. I use laminated spruce for my necks with carbon graphite rods for extra rigidity. Makes for an extremely light weight guitar! Please keep up your postings..
Wow, was für ein toller Klang! Ein Jumbokorpus halt. Danke, es war ein Vergnügen dieses Video zu schauen. Und, genial dass Sie altes, schon einmal gebrauchtes Holz verwendet haben.
beautiful job!
Sound is awesome...i love it verry much
Great build. Very noble cause. Subscribing now 😊
Excellent. This video is going to help me tremendously. I build ukuleles and I have learned a lot from watching this video. I have a lot of new ideas now.
Great.
Your English is remarkable 👍👍😎 the guitar built in excellent too 🎸😍😍😍🎸👍🎸👍🎸👍
Gabriele, I came across your channel today. I myself have been repairing and building guitars for 25yrs, just as a hobby. Your skills and the effort you put into your guitars is truly inspiring. You are a true luthier.. I would feel honoured to own one of your guitars. Love and best wishes from🇬🇧
Hi there. Thanks for the kind words, you make me blush. But I'm just a hobby builder like you, who loves working with wood and I like guitars, so I just combine the two in my free time. Can I see your work anywhere? I'm always up for inspriation. God bless from Germany.
