Guitar making and music composition
Oboe reed making with a CNC machine
Something a little bit more exotic today...
I did some first tries playing the oboe a couple of months ago and also started reed making. Due to frustration about dimensions and consistency within a series of reeds, I decided to use my home-made CNC router for reed making.
First experiments, similar to a commercial profiling machine, with an already folded reed were not so successful due to a more or less undefined shape of the tied and folded cane. The cane is way more defined before it is folded, as it then has a well-known inner diameter from gouging (and a quite defined outer diameter from wood selection).
Hence, I made a vacuum fixture from brass (because brass is easy to solder) to hold the unfolded cane during machining and a software to create the reed geometry and G code for the machine to process.
Inquiries about the software can be addressed to reednc (at) posteo.net

A very simple guitar kerfing jig
มุมมอง 4.3K3 ปีที่แล้ว
Making kerfing has been one of my least favourite tasks. This is just a short video showing the idea for a quite simple jig to make kerfing for guitars and similar instruments. You just need a small router with a base, a 2 mm router bit, a few pieces of plywood, a screw and nut and a drawing of your desired kerfing. After a short practice period, it is possible to make even looking kerfing strips.

Making an Oud
มุมมอง 373K6 ปีที่แล้ว
This video shows many steps in making my first ever oud. The construction is loosely based on Richard Hankey's book 'Oud Construction and Repair', which is an excellent resource! At the end (11:50) there is also a small sound sample (however, do not expect too much since I do not really know how to play yet ;-) Camera: Sony FDR-AX53

Making a 7 String Acoustic Guitar
มุมมอง 1.7K8 ปีที่แล้ว
This small foto series shows some impressions on how I made my 7 string acoustic guitar with armrest bevel and combined piezo/microphone pickup. Top wood is spruce, sides and back are indian rosewood, finger board is ebony. The binding of the body was done with mahagony veneer, fingerboard binding is maple. The pickup uses 4 small piezo discs which are glued on the bridge plate and an electret ...
Who owns this oud now?
How much it cost
Grand lavoro, bellissimo
Beautiful work What is the scale length, 25 inch ?
Scale length is 616mm or ~24.25 inch!
Very clever thickness sanding on the binding.
Just imagine musical people that got inspired by war routine. Went through PTSD and almost freed from death fear(and any other), they make masterpieces. Really otherworldly motives but close to us in reality, make you feel that fear and maybe accept it. That how I feel this. Be in the time and place where people can make smh like this and be somewhat popular. And feel senselessness of all violence cuz they feel it and play their music about it.
Really beautiful! Where would I be able to get an oud fingerboard like this? I have an oud that has high action and the fingerboard was removed and then something else was stuck on in place of the fingerboard. I think if I put a new fingerboard on top of it, it will cure my high action. Maybe!
You sir are awesome. Never stop being incredible
PLEASE DO MORE MW2 COVERS YOU ARE A GOD AMONG MEN
what strings did you use for the main guitar part? I would like to be able to replicate this sound
I (almost) always use 80/20 bronze strings, for this particular guitar thicknesses 010-048
Well done, Sir and thank you for sharing.
Hi. I watched your videos more than 50 times. Thanks. Did you concave the plain of the top ribs to allow for bending of the soundboard as written in dr oud?
Hi. Great job. Got me into making my oen oud. Thanks. Do you use kerfing when gluing the top?
Thanks a lot! I did not use kerfing, I just tightly fitted the edges of the braces into the bowl.
🇧🇷 DADGAD
Probably the best cover of this song that I am aware of; possibly better than the original.
Love it!
Where were the sound of bass
everything about this video is beautiful.
Love it!
i come listen to this every week like a special treat. thank u
Beautiful intrument, thanks for the details build footage. It sounds great, I love the brightness and deep base tones. I'm thinking I'd like to include a rosette like yours on my next classical guitar build and see how it sounds and looks.
شغل رائع ومتقن❤ وين بينباع هيك عود
Well done, you made the oud. Thank you for your wonderful efforts in manufacturing ancient instruments, because you made the oud, and the oud is beautiful and produces beautiful sounds, that is, it is a string. Thank you very much for your efforts ❤❤❤❤❤
what is the difference between this and a Lute?
that was riveting to watch. amazing work
Very good work
Very impressive
Це шедевр! Золоті руки!
Tell me, please, what kind of music is this?
I just keep coming back to this video. You did a phenomenal job and I'm so glad you shared it with us. Thank you.
Where can i buy Harp guitar ??
Waau! Awesome fire with your working the song effect
Would you make me an Oud ?
Looks nice and sounds nice! I like that you put the effort to play something authentic for the instrument. Although as you noticed, it can easily be tuned and played like a guitar. Ouds are awesome instruments! I would also like to build one, but am unfortunately a complete amateur in crafting. Might be a waste of wood... What do you think about bridge material? How does heavier wood like ebony compare to light wood for bridges?
hiii great instrument man do you mind sharing the plaaaaans ? ✌
Hi,can you say me what music play in video?
It is called 'Oboe Ambience' from Matt Renzi
Thank you so much @@NJGuitar
Video helped me immensely when I needed to replace the entire top of my Oud
Clean work , beautiful Oud .thank you for the video . one question how did u solve the 3mm incline in the fingerboard ,since its dovetail .?❤
The incline was actually done by dressing the fingerboard with an angle.
what a kind of headmachines for ud did u used please
I used standard violin pegs
check our exotic oud sets for making oud bowl
This is one of my favourite songs of all time and you did absolutely fantastic at converting it from orchestra to one dude on a guitar. Thank you.
So beeeeeeaaaaautiful！！！
ぬぬ
Just for your record, i still use your music in my battletech board game scenario, you did well with this, i wish you to continue to do what you do !
I like the way you work. Can you email me the oud construction and repair as a PDF? thanks
I have only just found this now thanks to discord friends. I have to say this is phenomenal and extremely technical feeling as far as fingerstyle goes. I can't stress how much I would want a whole cover album in this style.
fantastic work. i know this is an old video, but can you please list the music you used, especially the piece that starts at 07:30? thank you.
It is called 'Sufi Pakistan' from Marcus Webb
@@NJGuitar many thanks
يا سلام ماشاء الله
Wowww this was great dude, also you're an incredible player and composer!! Are you playing the guitar that you're building here in that recording?
Yes, it is the same guitar from the video!
👍👍👍❤❤
