@@thebaldshredder I did. Can you tell me how you got the rhythm guitar to sound like that at 6:30? It's so clean for a distortion/fuzz. I am still learning. I own a Spider V 240MKii amp but the only real way to get good clean sounds is USB cable and the Spider app on my Macbook Pro.
Tim all the guitar parts in the video are recorded on my computer. Guitar into Line 6 interface GX and then using POD Farm software for the amp sounds. If you want a more clean sound, try backing off the gain/distortion and presence.
Awesome vid. All of it. The guitar. The 80's riffage. The Def Lep poster. Everything. I think you and I are on the same cool meter. LOL You rock Bro! I am going to check this kit out. I want to build one. Subbing.
With the almighty Gods of Rock, I summon the warlock to give me some of your skills hahaha kiddin! But really loved the Shred part and thanks for the great review. Now, we're not just selling guitars here, we'd also love to SHRED with you, Richard! A possible future Shred video collab maybe? haha Keep Rockin dude! That was so metal😉🤘
getting ready to paint ours now we got the one with the pickguard and set neck we are going blue with the black pickguard its gonna be sweeet hopefully it comes out as good as yours man great job im putting my straplocks in the back of the body though, working at fender cool folks talk to me from time to time and i actually got that advise from slipknots Jim Root himself, pretty cool
@@thebaldshredder it turned out bad ass. I was worried about the neck but it’s straight as an arrow. Two EMG 81s, Tonepros locking bridge, and Schaller locking tuners. Every bit as good as my ESPs and my Schecter. Stained it the color and pattern of the Gibson 50th anniversary V. Black and red. Good review. I went on your word. Lol.
I’ve a.ways want the Def Leppard guitar in the back ground. I thought to buy a kit and make one but I know what Phil’s looked like so need the body like that on on your wall. Then add what’s needed
Great job on the video. Count me among the one that don't have enough experience to try something like this. I feel like I would get stuck on it and get too frustrated! I think you did a good job on showing it off as well. In the Mega Jam I was almost expecting Metal Dude to try to crash the party!
I had an Ibanez flying V that I really wish I'd kept (hindsight being 20/20.) Since I didn't ... I think I'll get one of these kits, and more or less re-create it.
So there I was...Looking around to see where I can find a good DIY guitar kit. The new kits mostly have have horrible necks. I ran across Guitar Kit World. On the main page, there is The Bald Shredder!...lol. This really happened today. Of course I had to check it out. I am looking to build a "PRS type" guitar. I have never built a guitar before, so this should be comical, at the very least. Great video, BTW! Rock on!
@@thebaldshredder It is a hard decision as to which I would prefer. I am weighing out a ST style (Specifically like Dave Gilmour), an LP style (matte white with all black components), or PRS style (blue flaming maple). Such a hard choice...lol.
4:11 that’s cause CNC machines do the JOB these days .. that’s why I don’t get how any USA manufacturers that use CNC machines think their guitars are worth 3000+ these days .. they’re not .. I mean if it was lovingly hand carved and wired and all that maybe but these days anything we can CNC china and Indonesia can just as well. Provided they just watch the quality control
Nice video man. I've been trying to decide on a kit to build. I've never built a kit,but have been modding guitars for a couple years, and it turns out I'm pretty good at it. Now I've moved on to wanting to build kits of guitars I've always wanted but can't afford. Lol these seem to be good kits, and that's what I'm looking for. Good "bones" to make really killer guitars. I think I may go with guitarkitworld after watching your video. Nice playing too. 🤘
Hey you sound like me! I just started modding and building guitars a couple of years ago. I was never brave enough to try it. Now I can't stop! Have you seen my latest video with the orange guitar? And definitely check out Guitar Kit World. I only have the one kit from them, but it's fantastic. The neck and fretwork are flawless. Highly recommend.
@@thebaldshredder haha! That's awesome. Yeah man, I was scared of screwing something up. I would save and get a guitar, and there was no way I was gonna mess it up. Lol it finally took me taking my brand new ec1000 to a "pro" $250 later it played BETTER, but still had buzzing. So I decided right then, I was going to figure it out so I got in TH-cam and forums, and just started doing it. Fast forward 2 years later, I've worked on countless guitars for friends, and have made a good chunk of money. I would tell them I didn't want to charge, because it was practice for me but most would make me take the money after playing their instruments. I worked on a Gibson Les Paul gold top for a coworker. He forced me to take $300. That's when I knew I really was capable. So now I want to start doing kits. Thank you for the info. I'll definitely check out your other videos.
Hrrmm sez great kit to build cause I never built one I never even soldered... later in the video.. the neck pick up wire is too short "Luckily I know how to solder"... That said I have looked at their kist and the woodwork seems to be better then most kits out there but like the others the electronics leave a lot to be desired. Specially if you are an established player. Might not be an issue for a new player which is what I think they are gearing these kits towards.
@@thebaldshredder I recently did a piece meal kit for the Crimson Guitars Great Guitar Build Off. You may want to do another and get into next years competition. I learned so much from that channel. All my guitars play awesome now after reworking them. Just have my 1986 Washburn RR11v to restore now.
Are you gonna let me play this one? I think you should give it to me.
Yes! I've been waiting for this video!
Hope you enjoyed it!

By clean, I meant the distortion is so clean sounding.

@@thebaldshredder Thanks.

Awesomeness I just got a Rhoads V
Awesome vid. All of it. The guitar. The 80's riffage. The Def Lep poster. Everything. I think you and I are on the same cool meter. LOL You rock Bro! I am going to check this kit out. I want to build one. Subbing.

Very cool!
So, I ordered this too. Im more interested in the body and neck. Did you ever change out any hardware or electronics?
Nope. It's still exactly the same. Sounds great as is. Good luck with yours! Are you going to stain it or paint it?
@@thebaldshredder blue stain too lazy to paint lol. not too worried about how it looks. lm gonna hot rod it.
@@fd613 Very cool

@@fd613 hey that's awesome Rob. Sounds like you really tricked it out!
Dude you rock.hel yeah.awesome flying v.
Thanks 👍
I’ve a.ways want the Def Leppard guitar in the back ground. I thought to buy a kit and make one but I know what Phil’s looked like so need the body like that on on your wall. Then add what’s needed
Man it turned out nice Richard! Awesome jam brother!🤘🤘🤘 🤘
Thanks!
I like it, looks very cool!
Thanks
Looks badass man
Thanks
Where did u get this from, I can’t find it
Guitar Kit World. I just checked and didn't see the Flying V kit. Looks like it's out of stock right now I guess.
@@thebaldshredder alrighty thank u!!
Great job on the video. Count me among the one that don't have enough experience to try something like this. I feel like I would get stuck on it and get too frustrated!
I think you did a good job on showing it off as well. In the Mega Jam I was almost expecting Metal Dude to try to crash the party!
Thanks Brian. I had the same reservations for years until finally I just did it.
Well it sux now because their website says they won't ship the the USA certain models now. Dammit I really wanted a V.
Sorry to hear that. Is it just out of stock?
Fantastic vid, thx
Glad you enjoyed it

Cool 💯💯💯😎🤘 🎸
I’ve never owned a V either and you made such a killer one!
Get the kit and make one!
@@thebaldshredder yeah, I’m thinking all tung oil. How’s the ebony board?
@@AndyDion great. The neck is killer.
@@AndyDion all tung oil would look awesome.
Im about to get left handed one is it worth it?
Are you getting it from Guitar Kit World?
@@thebaldshredder yeah

Thanks dude 🤘
