I'm 16 and I'm gonna be building a guitar for the first time. I got a cheap Tele kit, but I'll be upgrading all the parts. Anyways, I'll be using Duplicolor and your video really helped. Thank you!
Sounds like a really cool project! I hope it turns out great!
Hey I'm in MN too!
Very cool! Where in Minnesota? Enjoy the -16 degrees weather have today!
The video helped me especially on fixing my problem thank you❤
I’m glad you found it helpful.
Did this clown EVER get around to the topic of the TITLE?
I need to take my fiance on a surprise visit here asap and bring back either the Yamaha Montage or the Nord Stage 4 he's been wanting, He DESERVES IT and thankfully it's only a 3 hr drive from the Detroit area!
Sounds like a great plan! Very cool!
I love ❤ the fighting for Joy motto. I definitely want to strive for that. Sweet sander!
Wow, that's pretty neat looking woodwork! To see the intricate work that goes into it, plus the time even wows me more!
I absolutely love how the acoustic guitar turned out! It sounds Amazing!
Thanks for watching!
A drlll press might prove helpful
Can I ask if you actually watched the video? I’m curious because I did use a drill press, so your comment is confusing.
I have a question. Will lowering the spring-tensioned bridge damage the blades? I'm asking because with a new guitar I don't know whether to completely remove the springs so as not to damage the blades and pins.
It is a controversial argument that gets brought up a lot! I think it’s best to release tension first, especially on new bridges….this is something I should have addressed in the video!
Great video, clearly explained and demonstrated each critical step of the process. Can’t imagine having to do anything differently. Thanks for taking the time to put this video together greatly appreciated. 🤘
Thanks so much!
Fascinating!
I think it’s really interesting as well! Loved having time with him!
@@letsbuildaguitar9230 Yeah, he really seems down to other as well as being so professionally competent!
the spruce acoustic at @25.00 sounded verry good (better than the one before it was less bitey / agressive sounding), neck heel and the piece transfering intoo the headstock looked a little chunky but the rest was verry nicely made , i agree though that that first one was better made
Thanks for sharing
I am so glad I saw this video on my feed. I found my dads old floyd and got some new strings for it, didn't know how to set up the action but it was tolerable. With this video I can go back and do some fine tuning. Only issue is that every time I try to push the bar towards the neck it just doesn't seem to budge but works fine when I pull it back.
Sounds like the Floyd is tipping way forward and the tension isn’t set properly.
I went there yesterday for the first time. Amazing place!
It really is!
Wow!!! I was SO impressed with the acoustic guitar finish. I love looking at antiques. The electronics were very interesting to watch. It brought back my memories of when I was like 8 years old taking everything apart or breaking it to see how it worked. Great video! Keep them rolling!
Thanks
Your videos have turned into my new HGTV. HGTV portrays these perfect flawless projects and they hardly show the reality of their projects. I will remember the words of wisdom of walk away when you want to rush artistry.
Ah….yes I’m good at making mistakes!
My ideas for a vibrating plate is maybe get a vibrating exercise plate. You can adjust the speed of vibrations with a remote.
Question. When you adjust height, isn't it a bit harmful for the knife edges if you do it with tension on them? More so on a cheaper floyd? Or is it ok to do it like so? I did notice interestingly enough the second time you just removed the back springs (nice move imo.) I'd be nice to see how you did it
Thanks! It’s interesting how this one point has raised more controversy on my videos than any other. Some argue that it absolutely destroys it! Others argue that it’s been proven that it doesn’t….maybe if you do it a lot! I do typically loosen the tension….I think it’s probably better. But it does make me wonder if it could be much harder on them than doing lots of dive bombing…there would be a lot of pressure on the same surface and there is movement even when using the trem.
Absolutely eye opening, thanks a bunch!
My pleasure!
I don't know about now because I haven't checked in years, but on eBay a seller used to sell beautiful ukuleles made in Vietnam with beautiful workmanship and inlay work. I don't know how good they sound but they were beauties.
Very cool! Thanks for sharing!
thankyou excellant job thankyou very very much nice work i learned how to tune my grandson new flying v, esp intonation work great job sir
I’m glad it helped. You’re a great grandpa!
I'm bulding my guitar from machined parts. I can't use templates to drill the cavities so I was wondering if there are some sheets with mesurements that could be used? I only found mesurements for string spacing and such, none for the cavities
Wow. Yeah I’m not sure. I do everything by hand.
Wow!! What a beautiful coat! I love the artwork of the flowers. Mr. X is right. Creating a masterpiece takes time. If you don't take the time and have fun doing it, it will not turn out. I personally do paintings and if I don't take time and have fun doing it they look pretty bad. The inlay design looks great!
Thanks for the encouragement
Good price. I would probably buy one with a brand name, even if it's Vietnam made. Brand name suggest the builder has pride in his products.
Looks and sounds great 👍. I personally would do no black guard. My artist mind says less is more.
Someone that paid attention in math, physics and shop classes. It was a pleasure to see common sense in action.
Thanks
I want one pleeeeeeeaaaaaaseeee. How much please ?
Thanks so much for your encouragement! Glad to know people appreciate the work of these guitars…most people comment on the Prince Style guitars, but I was quite pleased how these turned out.
I’m right there with you about lifting the blind and unfortunately I didn’t look at my ticket last year on my way to Thailand and I got the seat over the wing and I was gutted and on the journey back they put me in the middle seats . Next time I’ll specify where I seat. Great talk you gave there mate. All the best to you. Xxx
Thank you for commenting and taking time to share that.
I really enjoyed seeing the older acoustic guitar.
Very enlighten. My first paint job, using dupli/color.
Very nice finish! I love how the color changes depending on how the light hits the guitar.
Incredibly huge store. I have never been but every time I order online I get a call to make sure all is ok with what I purchased. They really work hard to make sure you are taken care of. They have also answered questions about products I have that I didn't buy from them but they were helpful in getting it set up. Class act company and team.
I’m glad you’ve had a great experience with them! I’ve really enjoyed working with them.

Beautiful video of love for others! To be able to bless people with a chair of love must have been incredible. I would have had troubles with crossing the road. It defies all laws of my crossing guard thinking. Thanks for posting your adventure in Vietnam!
It's pretty amazing! Thanks!
Question what is that drill extension called ? U can use it to fit in small tight spots thanks great videos
Great question! Not sure if I saw an official name, but I use this thing all the time. Probably just call a 90 degree flex extension.
Wow factor going on. I love the cave! Thanks for sharing!
Thanks for watching!
you're a cool dude-dude!
Thanks….cool for a knucklehead anyway 😜
So glad I watched this video. It gave me a different perspective on making mistakes. Dinner sounds great! I love Alfredo! I thought the purplish wood was really beautiful.
Excelent video, superb manual for a floyd rose setup. Good work. I have a similar guitar, a Dinky Reverse MIJ.
Cool, thanks!
Hi, my guitar has the hole for the posts bigger so my posts lean forward, can i fix it the same way you did with a dowel?
You probably could. It will take some work but can be done.
Wow! Those guitars look really nice!👍👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks!
Thank you! Watching from Central Texas
Thanks for watching!
Do you have the address for those guitar shops in Sàigòn?? Thank you 🙏
They are all lined up on Nguyen Thien Thuat street ... if you look up guitar street you will find them. Thanks for watching! I loved this trip.
@ I was come from that area before 1975 in Saigon , I knew that area so well. Thank you 🙏
Wow this has to be one of the best videos on setting up a Floyd rose I've come across thanks man this has helped me with setting up mine!!!
Thanks so much ! I’m glad it helped. To clarify something…it is proper to raise or lower the post After taking tension off the strings.
bla bla bla....you talk too much. stop and just do it. waste my time
This is the exact guitar I just bought at a pawn shop for $80! Perfect video for me!
Hey that’s awesome!
You git that setup with hsh and Floyd for 80$????? You got a steal my friend
Super happy with the guitar, slowly replacing FR parts with stainless Kashi from Amazon as strings slip. Mine is Performer, not Concept.
This is one of those tasks that I always dread but have not considered a repeatable jig for. Thank goodness for this video.
Thanks so much for letting me know! Really glad it was beneficial for you!
I am in the process of setting up a Floyd Rose and I found this to be very helpful. Well done.
Hey thanks so much for your encouragement. One thing to add is that in this video I forget to mention that you should take tension off the strings before raising or lowering the posts.
Great video, sir!
Thank you kindly!
