Great build videos! Thank you for not adding over bearing annoying background music while showing us the true life of building a guitar. Mistakes and all!
Every choice on this build was so cool, even the mistakes that were resolved. The way the grain popped when you did the finish made me go "Oh!" (in a good way). That dark (almost black) finish looked like vinegar and steel wool. Your use of hand tools shows a great dedication to the craft, and I know those are challenging.
I'm 80 and eat up with arthritis, so can't do much. Built a few kits . So I kinda know what a real pro does, you are a real pro. Great work, beautiful project.
Wow, this guitar build is amazing! The way you’ve put everything together is truly impressive. From the choice of materials to the precision in the design, everything looks top-notch. I can tell a lot of care and skill went into this-definitely one of the coolest builds I've seen. Keep up the great work!
I've always wanted a tele with a floyd. Now seeing this I think it will be one of my winter projects. I already have some ideas, not quite as elaborate as yours but still really cool! What a fantastic build! Your choice of woods and Gotoh parts... The video, showing all the individual steps was excellent! That's a beautiful guitar my friend and your craftsmanship top notch! 👍🏻
Just wow man. This thing is an absolute BEAST! Your wood crafting skills are remarkable as is the final product of your efforts. This axe belongs in a museum.
New subscriber here. Amazing craftsmanship doesn't even come close to a proper description of this build! Looking forward to viewing all of your videos. Thanks for putting this one out there! I LOVE THAT GUITAR!
I just stumbled across your video, great guitar! I enjoyed watching your building process and video editing as well! The guitar not only looks great but sounds awesome as well!
Great job!!, I love how you use 3D printed pieces. I am building my own instruments and I print in 3D templates for cavities, nuts, knobs, even I have printed a radio sander device and it works perfectly. Your guitar looks amazing, thanks for the video.
I was laughing out loud watching the ordeal with the magnets and switching to good ol' screws. Great to see the struggles and the bad and ugly. Nevertheless, the end result is beautiful!
Wow! Love seeing super capable people build things. When are you getting a small cnc?!?!?! I haven't built a guitar from scratch yet and probably should do it before going cnc but my head is aching, soul is hungry, to build a guitar with a cnc. And yes, Lee Nielsen is most definitely worth the investment! Good show, man!
I really want a CNC, but I convinced myself I'd have to go for an Avid machine. Buy once, cry once 😅. I agree though, best to build from scratch first before building with CNC.
@ I’ve been looking at shop saber for my cabinetry business but I kind of just want a table top machine for fun work instead of processing panels. By the time I’m into 4x8 or 5x10 with ATC and vacuum table, cost is more than I want to drop at the moment. Maybe a used desktop shopbot. I have seen those smaller Laguna/Powermatics used for a fair price. I’ve also considers building my own but haven’t calculated the cost savings over buying a used machine. Anywho, you’re clearly super capable dude. It’s awesome to watch!
@@DUY1337GUITAR at 1900 for reconditioned it might be worth it. I never really had an interest in the shaper origin till recently. Was a guy from New Jersey, forget his name, on UA-cam and he made really good use of it. Think I’ll hold out for a desktop 2x3. $5-6k gets a decent used non ATC machine. Resharpen my cnc skill on that for a while. It been a while since I’ve done cnc work. I miss it. Cool seeing you use 3D printed templates. Do you use fusion 360 for design?
The edit, the takes, the result! Everything it's on point! What a incredible tutorial to start my first build! Can you please share the plans with me? I have my own design for the headstock and the body shape, but everything else (pickups position, bridge, scale, etc) are the same, so it's important to not screw things in the process lol I would like to share the process with you... I hope this petition doesn't bother you... Greetings from Colombia!
You are a true craftsman, using the old way of doing thins like planing a body blank with a hand planer, I have a question for you, what brands are your handplaners ? I am looking in to buying a couple of new ones soon.. thank you.
I own Lie Nielsen, Lee Valley, and Wood River. I did not like my Wood River, but the other brands were on backorder at the time. I recommend going for Lie Nielsen if you can. You can always sell it and recover a lot of the cost.
As soon as I saw the book matched burl top I was in it till the end. It's really funny how we as humans are obsessed with how beautiful tree tumors are.
@@DUY1337GUITAR Yep! The tree gets disease, damage or environmental stress in some way and tries to wall the damaged section off from the rest of the tree, resulting in burl.
@@Steve-s4b Not meaning to be picky, but that doesn't fit the definition of a tumour, which is uncontrolled cell growth while avoiding programmed cell death. Granted one of those "deseases" a tree could get that creates burl could be a tumour. Unless the definition is different in trees, in which case, I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Still pretty hardcore though. I'm sure there's a deeper message to be had about being beautiful despite your wounds in there somewhere.
Amazing build man! I'm a huge sucker for super teles (Despite not actually owning one LOL.. eventually I'll find a old ESP neck through tele like Devin Townsend used to play) I'd have 100% done a monkey claw on the back of the trem route to reveal the wood layers. Also, black miniature poodle crew checking in. We're on poodle team #2 now.
Great video and fantastic skills! Personally I don't like neither Telecaster's body nor headstock shape, however, I really like this one :D. Well done! :)
Bro, your editing had me rolling! Choir singing on the trem peg removal was hilarious. Beautiful build!
I don't know where you learned how to make guitars but you are gifted my friend. I could watch your video a 1000 times and still not catch everything
I learn from videos like these. I had to cut 95% of footage from 450 video clips. So much left out!
Bro, I like the way you show the struggle of building a guitar. We all human. We make mistakes. Keep the great job.
might be one of the most beautiful guitars i've ever seen

You built a damn fine guitar, love the building rage edits here and there

The increasing noise sound effect, the perfect representation of the silent anger building up. Love it!
Damn bro! Didnt expected such a good playing! most builders have ok skills but you do it justice! Cheers from Mexico
I really enjoyed watching your craft at work. I was not expecting what I seen. Awesome job!
Planing the entirety of the body by hand is serious commitment lol respect
Love the humor in this video haha. Great work man!

The anger thing was just hilarious!! Great and beautiful build!
wow. what a cool build. I love the sound editing during the messups
Killer work Duy! It's awesome to watch you build these guitars. Keep em coming!
Currently working on a bass with the Nova bridge!

I just stumbled across your video, great guitar! I enjoyed watching your building process and video editing as well! The guitar not only looks great but sounds awesome as well!
Such a rad and beautiful piece! the Anger bits had me rolling LOL
Absolutely phenomenal build man. I wish I had all those tools! You take a lot of pride in whatt you do. Always a pleasure to watch 😎🤘.
That turned out to be a really beautiful guitar. Keep up the amazing work
Immediately subscribed, excellent work, and amazing editing work.
I like that you left the mistakes in!
Holy dream guitar, thanks for posting.
Absolutely stunning guitar!
Thanks for labeling the dog, I was wondering what that was! 😃
Beautiful wood one this one. Very nice job.
Absolutely beautiful!!

I'm still mad about the magnets!
Absolutely stunning. Instant sub!
I know the feeling when the trem is tilted!
Im very happy with this. Very very nice job.
Ahah! And here is the guitar owner
Stunning build. Thanks for sharing. Your finishing work is next level. Makes me want to try staining and spraying! ATM I just do oil finishes.
IM AMAZED...... NOTHING MORE TO SAY.
That is the only Tele style guitar I'd ever want to own, it's gorgeous!

What an amazing job !
Beautiful...I wonder why there aren't major brands doin such aggressive style tellies❤
Absolutely magnificent
this is the guitar which I am looking for the guitar for long time.
jaw dropping and stunning masterpiece amazing work of art 🤯👏👏
That finish is great, makes me wanna have a telecaster
gorgeous build
It's very very beautiful, I love it
Nice build bud! I am very jealous of all your tools you have some very nice stuff!
Beautiful and badass.
I was covering my eyes at 9:27!!!!!
Man, that wood... 😍😍
I miss your old videos, refinishing guitars and building your first 8 string :(
I find watching Guitar Builds to be very therapeutic which is why the anger bit cracks me up🤣
I'd be proud to play that at my next gig!
I think that this guitar makes total sens. Video was super funny too. Kudos
Glad you shared your stress with us
This is art.....he made big guitar companies look like a novice.......
Make a modern sg too...without neck dive...
Masterpiece 😍

Im ngl if i wasnt poor id definetely buy one of these from you. Sick asf man keep it up
Great work man.
Love it❤
I appreciate👏
Great build , I would love too own one of your guitar's .
soooo beatiful instrument...
Swapping magnets to screws was like "nah, too many sweats". And WHY ARE YOU KILLED LITTLE MAGNET HE DID NOT DESERVED IT
The magnet hurt my feelings
WOW! That is beautiful! Although, when you got to the staining, it would have been nice to add some colour.
Oooooooo fck, it is simply beautiful! 😲 Amazing build, I wish I have it one time! :) 🥺👏

dream guitar 😍
Absolutely stunning!! what about the new screw system in the tremolo cavity? It come with the bridge itself?
The original trem claw came with the tremolo. The new one is the Schaller Sure Claw which I bought separately.
Never seen a fretboard radius done with a jig like that but I like it
Amazing build man! I'm a huge sucker for super teles (Despite not actually owning one LOL.. eventually I'll find a old ESP neck through tele like Devin Townsend used to play)

Beautiful guitar
Great video and fantastic skills! Personally I don't like neither Telecaster's body nor headstock shape, however, I really like this one :D. Well done! :)
amazing guitar! very beautiful
Beautiful bild! Personally I would like to see some different specs, regarding bridge, but that is just preference. Stunning work! 🤘🏻💪🏻
This tone was already great enough🤣
amazintastic
wow..I want one!!!!
nice work!
Bellissima complimenti 👏👏👏👏
No angled headstock? I'm reporting this video.
(Jocking, great video (and storytelling!), awesome wood skills, i'm following right now.)
Client didn't want, but I definitely want to do an accented scarf joint sometime
Well made guitar like it!
