      What causes guitars that have that deep well I'm not for sure the right words if it's dwell or what it is but it was on a I believe I played a Chad Atkins model gretsch and it was just a sound that I've never been able to replicate, I have not a very good guitar player I just played for myself I was using I think it was a fender super twin amp, that was way back in the seventies maybe I would love to recreate that sound one more time while I'm still able to play, excellent job that you are doing I'm glad I found your videos,

So I would still complain a little because this process in the video I feel like is the traditional custom build where most places that we would all recognize the name of do not do it like this anymore.

    I realized that one thing I especially love about your videos aren't necessarily the guitars (although they're beautiful each and every time) - but how calm and relaxing the cinematography is. Your workshop really comes across like a place to be calm, to take your time, to lose yourself in your work and to be creative - really just for the sake of creativity. So nice.

    I was already loving the beautiful craftsmanship, and the thoughtful & elegant camerawork that was on display, but then the sheer wholesome of the bits with your daughter put this over the edge for me, and made me think that if someone asked me to show them an example of the best humanity can offer, this could be on the list. It was the humor in the "do you want to help me shape the neck" bit that made me *need* to comment. I realise this sounds incredibly hyperbolic, and it's not like this video is about a cure for cancer or something, but I feel like creativity, skill, humor, and kindness is the stuff of life, and this has me feeling all the feels.

    I'm so glad I found this channel, it's awesome. I've had my heart set on making guitars for a while, and while I love coming up with designs and wiring schemes, I've always seen the woodworking aspect as just something that has to be done, not something I really look forward to; but your channel has definitely changed that. Your videos have been a tremendous help for letting me know where to even start with tools (with so many options and different approaches to building can get overwhelming very easily) and it's also been very motivating. I'm very hopeful that I'll be able to start building instruments this summer, and you've helped me to overcome a lot of my toughest obstacles so far.
    Also, I want to share a small tip that I learned from a luthier I had the opportunity to make a guitar with once: He taught me that when you're making the neck of the guitar wait until you've attached the neck and bridge, adjust the truss rod as needed, and _then_ install the frets; this way you shouldn't need to do much, if any, touch up work on the frets for the final set-up (I've only tried this once, but he has many decades of experience and used to work at Martin, so I trust him). I'm not sure if you could still use a fret press, he only hammers his in, but it seems like it saves a lot of time in the long run and I've never seen anyone else do it.

    I remember during Shop class My Teacher tried to get me to participate in the class so he started listing down all of my passions I could try and make with the class. One of them was a Guitar. After watching this, It looks like WAY too much patience for me to make a guitar. Franted he was going to help me along the way but I never thought of maing one. The Guitar Looks Fantastic! I loved how the entire thing came together through out the video. Interesting watch

    Great Build...quick too...
    I took just a shade over 17years to finish mine, but mine was a carved top single piece mahogany body, loaded with 3 custom wound humbucking P90s and a peizo bridge... Each HP90 has its own set of controls, each coil of each pickup wired independently together, with nearly all cancellations wired out.. I finished it, nearly 10years ago, and im still finding new pup combinations... It just keeps on giving..

    • @tchiksguitars
      @tchiksguitars  Місяць тому +1

      Though not drastic, some changes can occur over time : the wood in the neck and body dries, the pickups age, the frets wear out (so playability is a bit different and make you play differently), the oils and glue settle in, the pots oxidate ... I do agree that most guitars sound a bit differently when they age, even with new strings. I wouldn't say they sound better but there's something.
      One fun thing about being a millennial is that I can say "OK boomer" to either 1) somebody who says that tone wood matters and 2) somebody who claims the opposite. Because I don't care, I have no opinion on the matter.
