  • Fretboard inlay took me almost a month to finish, I only use small hand tools and a magnifying goggles to make them. The Guitar body took me 3 months to make, and 1 week of practicing #playinggod by #polyphia at the same time editing this video.
    I was inspired by #timhenson 's music and made this guitar as a tribute to his great music, skill and talent. I hope you all like it, I gave my all producing the special guitar and this video.

    This is an amazing build. I’ve played the TOD10n. I love that it honors the real deal while still retaining some of your own creative choices. I also really like the natural unpainted top. The inlays are pretty spot on to my eye. You even added some binding and a heel cap like the TOD10n - I really like the look of yours with wood binding.
    Have you tagged Tim Henson? I bet he’d get a kick out of your work! #TimHenson #Polyphia

    That's an ingenious glue-up jig! I'm a woodworker and a guitarist myself so at some point I decided to try making some simpler instruments in spare time, and I've only ever had to join two thinner slats at most (it was for a morin khuur, no heat bending required so I figured it would be my first project) but I was totally lost when it came to larger stuff (I tried parallel clamps with a ton of boards and it would always fall apart) - your solution is simple and elegant, 10/10

      @rogue1537 you sign your life away with these contracts. Tim used to play Jackson, Ernie Ball, and I think one other brand, but since his Ibanez deal. I think he got rid of all his non ibanez guitars. Metallica are pretty much the only band that can play whatever they want even though they're endorsed by ESP. When Tims deal expires, he can play whatever he wants at that point.

    That's a real special guitar, because you made it yourself. It certainly would be to me.
    I envy you that you have the space and the tools to do that--where I live now (and for the foreseeable future) I have no space for a workshop (I didn't realize it would be this cramped when we bought the place).
    I know you got a LOT of pleasure building that guitar, especially shaping and shaving the wood. Excellent job. Enjoy it!
    (In my case, the hardest part would've been cutting the tiny pieces of MOP for the inlays! But, oh, the satisfaction after pounding them in place, and then sanding everything even!)
    I think it sounds better unplugged, but that's the way you want it to be! With electronics, there is always some combination of filters and EQ to make it sound the way you want.
    Enjoy it and be proud!!
