@@dleasman I submit to you 7:37...sounds pretty well in tune to me...if you pay attention in the video (1:16) you can see he used the old body as the template for where to place all of the hardware...this guitar works just fine I bet.
@@jonnybooks9337 If you look on any strat (22fret, 25.5 scale length), the bridge is right up to the pick guard. It's a mathematical thing. It may have been tuned to sound good in that position of the neck, but any higher, or lower, and it would be out. A guy once gave me a charvel guitar where he had changed the neck to one from a strat. The original neck was a 24fret neck, 24.75scale length (yes, more frets means a shorter neck, lot longer), so the bridge was too far back by just .75", and it was un-tunable. The bridge in the video is much further back. Again, it's a mathematical fact that this guitar could not be tuned to play in tune throughout it's register. Look at the bridge position of any strat, and measure any elec. guitar you have. On a bridge, the saddles are adjustable, because intonation requires sub mm adjustments. Sorry to argue the point, but bridge placement IS critical.
Looks good and a great learning experience. I like your router jig for levelling as it looks like it would work well. Every time I see these builds I want to try making my own guitar. Maybe 2019 is the year.
i think it would look even better with a wood cover for the pickup cavity or where the pickups and controls are mounted, and not look like a strat too.
Cool project. Definitely outside the box. Some constructive feedback: The wood grain goes the 'wrong' way, so neck joint might be weak. The saddle leans way too much forward. Maybe you had to do that to make the intonation right? Aligning all this is what's hard when building guitars. Remove the spring claw, and re solder the ground lead afterwards. Soldering isn't that hard, lots of good info here on youtube.
AWESOME SIR, I BUILD CUSTOM GUITARS AND IT CAN GET TEDIOUS SOME TIMES WHEN YOU ARE TRYING TO BUILD HIGH END INSTRUMENTS. I WOULD LOVE TO DO SOMETHING FREE AND FUN LIKE THIS SOME TIME (WHEN I GET TIME) BUT GREAT JOB AND COOL IDEA.
Interesting, but the bridge looks REALLY far back. A strat neck is a 25.5" scale length, so that must be the exact distance from the nut to the saddles on the bridge (+/-, for intonation). With the bridge that far back, I doubt it could ever play in tune up the neck.
This can’t be intonated properly, the bridge is way out of position. I cried tears of pain when he started smacking the neck with a mallet because the neck angle was wrong. There’s a weird combination of woodworking skill and zero experience building guitars going on here. It’s a super cool idea, but I would urge anyone thinking to build one for themselves to do a lot more research on how guitars are made first. Because this could have been made into a hell of a guitar with just a few key changes and techniques.
Why don’t you just make one yourself he very talented he didn’t say anywhere in the video that he is a professional guitar make and it’s going to be prefect he was just trying something new and I’m sure it’s way better than you could ever do
@@hh4826 The reason no musical instrument is made with horizontally cut wood is because it does not resonate at all. You might as well make this guitar from MDF. and glue a veneer to it. The tone is going to be dead.
@@timhallas4275 aha , the age old tone wood myth! I would be more concerned with movement and splitting as this ring cut is hardly ideal for a guitar body.
@@jlr022159 Well, my therapist cares what I think. and so does 4 of 5 guitar builders. My designs have been copied by several other builders. Why should we be listening to your opinion? How many guitars have you built?

Great how you've kept the natural texture and looks of the wood. Really nice
Awwwwwww, I thought the bark would have been so cool left on.
Bark always peels off during solos and back flips
@@benantell5452 And bark burns better when you spray Ronsinol on it too.
@@juana1483 Something for Hendrixs freaks. Happy New Year!
@@benantell5452 Happy New Year.
Same...maybe with some laquer to hold it from peeling. Looked real good.
This was a great piece of art and to watch this being made was even better! Thank you for the post...
Its the *Slabocaster*

LOL!!! Classic!!!

Your creation is most resplendent and a first of its kind that I’ve seen here... Play more friend!! Thanks for sharing
You are a genius!!!! I've never seen such a thing in my life!!! Great idea!!!
Woow it looks like the the shape of the map of my country Uruguay !!! Good work !!
How is it intonated right with the bridge so far back. Kick ass idea though
That is exactly what I was thinking. Neet idea, but unfortunately, unplayable, since it could never be tuned.

Intonation sounds fine to me!
Really beautiful guitar.
Nice 'Trunkcaster' build. Congratulations.

2021 - did you make your guitar? :D
Cool idea. Might want to edit the 'angel' grinder, though.
Nicely Done!
That thing turned out great man
Awesome job
Thumbs up for the shop dog
Dude it looks sick
Really nice!😎

Pretty damn cool.
This is an awesome idea!

Love it!
I don't think you should have rushed through that so fast. It could have turned out even nicer. Good job though. 👍

Of course still uses a strat style Pick Guard😂looks cool though
Should've left bark on it and put humbuckers in it. Pick guard needs be trimmed doesnt look right on it.
You’re not allowed to flap-grind angels....
Quanto costa?;questa CHITARRA? MI piacerebbe averne una uguale con tastiera stratocaster...dov'e' L'indirizzo ?
That's just mad! .. but well the fuck done!

It can always be improved and fine tuned later on
Maybe it's his first build. We all do things differently, which is okay.

Dove fanno queste chitarre? Belle!
cool build keep practiced do you plan to make more guitars?
“Angel” grinder? 👼🏻 😏
Great.
Fantastisk film, Baloni! :D
Takk, takk! ;)
What kind of wood is that?
I think you may have given me an idea for another video lol
Haha looks cool!
Sebastiaan Mollema Thank you!
The new gibson corvus
Was this for yourself or for a customer?
I assume the pickguards off A 3 quarter size guitar otherwise intonation would b horendous
An extra 5 min of router work, would be worth it
7:40 what is the song u playing ? :)
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Nice
Why didn't you flush the rear cover
Yeah thats what I thought too...but still pretty nice...
Nå ble jeg glad i gitarhjertet mitt!
If you fix that neckpocket its gonna sound better
squinting saved my eyes... (".)
Would you be interested in donating it to a charity to help bring up funding or awareness for something
Capo!
Yikes man you fucked that one up a bit.
Nice job to hang on the wall though.
I AM GROOT!!

Should’ve been a bass
Its so ugly but its so cool xD

Why not just buy a black pick guard that white one is gonna show scratches of white but anyhow good attempt but it’s not good sorry 🤔
Why? And spray painting the pickguard was stupid, that paint won't hold up
Does not look like the intonation is right
Solidify cow dung and make a guitar
se puso a tocar jajajaja
подложек под пятку наложил. ппц
strat style picguard make it look uglier
I hate to be the one to tell you but that peice of wood is dead. Unfinished but dead!
These guitars are baloni
Why go through all that work just to put shitty cheap parts on? Bet that thing sounds like a bag of rocks plugged into a potato
Pretty much. But I had a crappy old Behringer guitar, and wanted to spice it up and do something creative. That is why I made this.
Sorry for the negativity, guess I'm just a bit jealous. FYI Warmoth guitar parts are reasonably priced and are high quality
If you wanted to spice it up you should have fitted better pickups and electrics
This triggers me
About the dumbest idea I've ever seen.
Clearly you haven't seen much :)
