- In this video, I take you through the long process of building my first guitar. I embarked on this venture back in mid 2017, and finished it early in 2018. I then spent the next several months procrastinating on the editing, but eventually got it done. I enjoy playing guitar, and like to build things, so the obvious next step was to make a guitar. By no means am I qualified to do anything seen in this video, so my processes and methods might not quite be correct, but they seemed to work, as the guitar turned out great for a first attempt, and plays fantastically (as seen at the end of the video). Sorry for the lack of recent uploads, and how long this video took to upload, I have been very lazy and was focusing on my final year of school, but I will pick up the slack soon.
Hope you enjoyed watching as much as I enjoyed making the guitar itself. If so, please consider liking and/or subscribing. Thank you! - บันเทิง

If not already by now, I’m sure in the future, and if it is your wish, you will have your own famous brand of guitars!
Sir, you did an amazing job here building such a fine piece of art! Luthier, I salute you.

Whoa!
What's this?
Did you notice this here?
It looks like there's a stick up your ass!
You should get that checked out man.
From one Luthier to another, outstanding job,
Make that two Luthiers to another.
I make ukes but it still counts. Good job man
@@upcomingcloudrapperluca7645
Yes, ukes count.
Up coming cloud rapper luca any stringed instrument counts man you’re good
Anytime I see "imperfections," I actually see "custom." Phenomenal job! I couldn't imagine doing like this with the amount of patience you have shown! Incredible!!
thankyou! i really appreciate it
That. In my opinion is a dumb way of looking at it. Any little imperfections can drastically reduce tone and playability. I make handcrafted guitars. The less imperfections the better it looks and sounds. You need to be really skilled to be successful in this business. I’m not saying if he isn’t skilled he shouldn’t try. I’m saying you need to learn basic skills and have basic tools.
@@benjaminblair8496 That's awesome man. Well, I hope you have a blessed rest of 2020 and I wish you nothing but success in your craft.
Five years later I've just found you and it's a joy to watch; dude - well done!
This is incredible; I'm in awe of the craftsmanship and patience you've displayed here
Dude, that’s one of the gnarliest guitar builds I’ve ever seen! A first build with a Bigsby, you hit a home run as far as I’m concerned. She sounds sweet, and looks pretty darned good!
Wow that's insane for a first guitar great job
I shit better guitars than this
@@TheGhjgjgjgjgjg and surprisingly not a single video of you shitting a guitar better than this.
let's see that ass work then
@@upcomingcloudrapperluca7645 You think one shits guitars and simply shows the world? I have a gift and I put value on that,what's in it for me?
@@TheGhjgjgjgjgjg Listen pal funny joke and all but the only person with a gift here is the guy who made this video. Stop hating
Man, after watching the entire video, I can honestly say, that you should be very proud of what you have built! Seriously... for anyone's first electric guitar build, that was not a kit guitar, this is awesome! I like the color combination, as well. Very impressive, Man! This definitely motivates me to get started. Half of what any issue that you had, was from the lack of proper tooling. Using what you had to work with... simply amazing. Sounds great! You might have a future as a Luthier!
I am impressed. The majority of builds I've seen are "I fired up the CNC", but you've done an actual build. Too cool.
Brother, if this is what you build inexperienced, imagine what you will do once you are experienced! Fantastic work, kudos!
Man! For a first attempt, a hollow body with carved top and back... Well done! Much more difficult than a solid body. Enjoy what you've created.
Nice job! When I saw you were making an archtop, I was going to suggest Robert Bennedetto's book, but it looks like you've seen at least some of it.
If you continue making guitars, don't ever let this one go. Guitars are like girl friends. You always remember your first.
Unlike girl friends, you can keep them around forever.
hahahaha great analogy
Also unlike girlfriends: the first one doesn’t mind when you get more...
That Ellipsis Guy-I’m not so sure about that. Some of my guitars get pouty if I ignore them.
Thank you so much for sharing your passion with us. This is a beautiful work of art. And it sounds amazing.
that's one of the most beautiful guitars i've ever seen, such a work!!
You have a lot of nice tools, but your best tool by far is your courage. I look forward to seeing more...….Bravo!!!!
Bro, gorgeous final product, you should be very proud of that. It looks and sounds great, any imperfections are just areas to help you learn to do it better another time. Thank you for sharing that with us!
Pure handmade labor of LOVE!!! Pleasure to watch and nice job on the editing too,especially the sounds!
omg im in love with the inlay on the fredboard man fenominal job !!
Easily one of my favorite TH-cam vids to date. Great job!
Dude, that is impressive! That's a LOT of skill and patience for someone as young as you. Great Job!!!
Scott Da Fuq I like your icon
Wow! THAT was brilliant! You made the process and the guitar yours in every way and it sounds GREAT. Cheers!
About time! I love watching your videos. Really relaxing to watch. plus you have made some amazing stuff :)
thankyou! yea sorry about the wait, was really concentrating on my final year of school
Wow! It’s beautiful, imperfections gives character 🎸
Dude. That thing is gorgeous, imperfections and all. Really nice job...
Ash, I know this is a video that has been up for some time but I have to say, beautiful work. Some of your processes are quite clever as well and your inlay work is stunning. Well done. I have been a formally trained luthier for 15 plus years and I learned quite a bit from your video.
Good job man !! What a wonderfull first build, waiting too see some more soon. And you're right, it sound really good, because you made a playable instrument but you can play it very well too.
Woww, amazing work! Some "imperfections"...? No, no...battle marks!! Very, very nice guitar 😎
cheers 🍺
@@ashhamer1075 🍻
Ash, it looks like you had a really good plan to begin with. You seem to have all the correct cooling and the knowledge on how to use them as well. That helps a lot. The work on the neck is simply phenomenal. I've never seen anything like that before anywhere. Congrats on your first build. It reminds me of the gretsch streamliner g2655t look. It sounds great also.
THAT IS AWESOME SKILL YOU GOT THERE MAN,,,,,,, GREAT GUITAR TESTING AT THE END WHEN YOU PLAYED IT...... KEEP ON ROCKEN DUDE...
Beautiful!! I'm in the process of starting my first build totally from scratch. I admire your patience and craftsmanship. Hopefully I can get as nice a finished product as yourself. Well done!!!
Way more ambitious than my first build. You have inspired me to attempt one!
That motivates me to do my first guitar, and it also helped me because I learned a lot!
This was the second time I've watched this video. Well done on a great build.
You did an amazing job! You should be very proud! Look at everything you learnt, that knowledge is yours forever now. Your next project will be so much better from those mistakes or imperfections, when you look at it don’t look at what’s wrong but instead look at everything that is right. Well done 👍
just amazing.. I love it. Great video!!!!
You, sir, are an absolutely amazingly talented, and creative, young man. With your highly skilled hands, you have created a stunningly fine instrument. You may not have considered yourself a Luthier before you began your build, but you most certainly are now. Impressive work. I'm now a fan of yours.
Beautiful work.
Really impressive.
I'm particularly impressed with the fretboard inlay.
i love that custom design on the guitar fretboard Nice job dude
That is totally badass! Great job dude, it looks great and sounds great too! You made a freaking guitar!! Keep up the amazing work man!
beauty at its finest. what makes it even more beautiful are the imperfections. i dont think ive ever seen guitars without imperfections tbh. so good! :D
that tone tho. can listen to it all day
Total respect I know it wasn't easy, You did a magnificent job. The imperfections you showed make it a one of a kind and give it character/personality.
Beautiful job ! You're made to build my friend, in fact I would pay a few grand for that guitar ! great job again
appreciate it !! thankyou
A great effort young man. Keep at it. No one was born a Grand Luthier. A finish carpenter told me when I was starting out that the difference between a good carpenter and a great carpenter was that a great carpenter can hide his mistakes. Nice guitar and you play well. Cheers!
Congrats! Your guitar has been made with love , is beautiful and Unique :) you must be proud! Cheers, David.
Man! That's such a beautiful guitar!!!
Incredibly impressive work. Beautiful job!
You are the real DEAL
Totally Amazing effort, Beautiful design! Keep up your creative work, some of us have it and it needs to be nurtured and developed throughout our lifetime. Big Thumbs Up and Subscribed!
This is awesome! The imperfections make it even better.
Excellent video and process and thanks for sharing
You are a true musician. Even a a broken will not stop you. Awesome build and finish.
I have to say that was some amazing work and turned out amazing, absolutely gorgeous and sounds fantastic keep up the great work
Great job. I'm impressed.
you should be really proud of that!! I started one back in 2014 and have yet to finish it...i think I need to pull it out and get it done! Keep going, man I hope you ahve built many more by now.
Well i just stumbled upon this video and, WOW!!! Sure the end-product isn't picture perfect but..it was your first build and i am mighty impressed!! I would never have taken on such a massive project as my first one. The guitar building process isn't exactly how i would have done it but again, it was your first build to misstakes are to be made. The final product sounds pretty damn awesome and i really hope you keep building guitars as i think you have what it takes to become a full-on Luthier!!!! Well done on a great first build ;)
Wooow sick first build ! And great video, thank you for sharing !
Thanks for taking us along. Very nice instrument.
Hey... You've done it! You've achieved your goal, and you've done it! Most people never get beyond the "Idea" portion. So, I would say that you are in-fact well qualified to do, what you have just taken the time to do. SO, thank you for the video, as I am just now on my way to under-go the same process. Thank You!
WOW. Excellent work. great ingenuity in the creation too. I'd be so proud of my work.
Great job! Let's hope you never have to re-set the neck..
Yeah everything else is just great, but that neck is never getting reset, which suuuuuuuuucks
I love the way you used your router flattening jig to cut the rough contours. Very resourceful!
Amazing video, and great product. Amazing job.
Real purdy!! You finished it and you still have all your fingers and thumbs. An awesome achievement!
Also, that is a beautiful guitar you made and a awesome tutorial. Damn, if I had the supplies, and tools/equipment you have, I would be using your tutorial and making one of my own semi hollow electric guitar. (I've always wanted one)
I’m truly impressed.
that's such a beautiful guitar
First time building a guitar that's great and it's beautiful and it's yours! Can't wait to see your future builds now that you have one under your belt! Love your full speed ahead damn the torpedos build on men!!!
Awesome job dude! Love the finish, and it sounds great. You should definitely do more.
Wow! Nice, amazing creativity!
Absolutely amazing build. Cheers and congrats
Absolutely stunning and the inlay beautiful.
thankyou !!
I gotta say... I've never been a semi-hollow guy. But the binding on those f-holes is some of the best looking shit if I've ever seen. This is quality work, man. Impressive.
Unbelievable!! Awesome job, and the video too!
Very astonishing job! Congrats!
What a great guitar. Well done, man.
Congrats - so much hard work. Bold choice for a first guitar and I think you did great. Even PRS started somewhere. Cheers.
cheers 👍
Great job man you built a really nice guitar. No need for a disclaimer at the beginning, I build guitars and you pretty much did it the way most builders do when they first start building. The only suggestion I would make for your next build would be to use your router and templates more for cleaner and faster cavities.
Building the guitar is less trouble than trying to string up a Bigsby the first time. Very nice. Its like a slim line 335. I likes it.
I love that guitar. The blue tiger maple looks fabulous. Sounds nice too.
For a first effort, this is brilliant, well done indeed!
You built a beautiful instrument. Pure art.
Well done. I really enjoyed watching this.
Right on!! That got to be so satisfying to play
The first electric guitar re-invented. Wonderful.
That is one sick guitar build. Thumbs up!
👏🏻 32:14 The inlay on the fredboard's job is to applaud! Super original, I'm impressed, congratulations! 👏🏻😍👍🏻
I have to admit while your methodology may not be standard practice, you found some rather clever ways to achieve your desired result.
Bravo
You've done an amazing job!
If we forget the binding, that looks really good for a first build ! You didn't exactly pick something easy (I'm gonna start with a kit guitar build, I'm completely untrained at woodwork... AND I'm not gonna do any binding on it) and it's functional at the end !
thanks! yea, the binding was a bit of a let down, i couldnt have chosen a harder wood to use for my first time binding!! but i didnt want to compromise the look i was going for. Cheers for the feedback
Super crazy beautiful guitar! I'm in love with the fretboard gorgeous wood and awesome job building. it has a warm mellow sound. Very cool. you should start a Rockabilly group!
So much love put on that lovely guitar. Don't mind the imperfections they're there for a reason 🖤
Amazing video!!!, looks soooooo good with that color!!!!, I think it looks so professional it could be sold at a high-end guitar/music store
Excelent !!!
Amazing guitar ❤️
I am amazed. You are great, man. I can see all the flaws and the things you've done wrong, but the end result is just to good for a first build, that I am not even willing to complain.
I never watch a video to the end . But for this one i did enjoy every second of it
Awesome video man! Great design too. Even a cool riff to finish her off. Great stuff!
Pura pasión. El resultado final funciona a pesar de las imperfecciones. Vale por el esfuerzo, la constancia y el coraje para meterse de cabeza con un instrumento de muy difícil terminación. Las siguientes resultarán mucho mejor... Felicitaciones!
Great Video glad i found this channel
Excellent first attempt! And an excellent body choice!
Breathtaking my dude!
