Speechless!!! These are the kind of BigD Vids that started my Addiction, Thank You Derek for being my Enabler... My wife appreciates it... 😂 lol...You’re A Rock ⭐️ when it comes to Everything Guitar!!! #☝️
I’ve found when working with pine and other soft woods, I had to use a wood conditioner where I’ve wiped it on and wiped it right off - that made a huge difference, the stain took nice and even.
Man you do such good work. It's crazy our techniques are so different. I can't wait to see what you dream up for a collab with me! But we gotta get some crazy tops from Kimball!
I've got a "reasonable" guitar collection (don't ask my ex-wife) but I still don't have a green one. So rare to find a good green on a guitar worth buying so this post was a serious treat... and such a tease. ;-)
Looks great, bro! When you hit the sides with black you hot it pretty neat without getting any black on the top - is that easy enough to do or would you recommend a beginner like me mask the top first?
Was just curious what size bottle your green was. when i went to the website to see what they had, they only seemed to have 3 oz bottles left, wasnt sure if that was enough to do a guitar or not.
I’m getting ready to d start my first DIY guitar kit. It’s OKoume wood. It’s a LP style guitar, can you give me some pointers on how to stain it? I plan to go either green or blue. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Hey Derek, I just saw a maddening idea: checkout Fisher's shop on TH-cam. He's got a video called woven cutting boards. I think this could be a fantastic project for a guitar top. Could fit a tele design without a pickgard. Let me know what you think ! Amitiés, Avi

Thanks for the killer guitar body, Derek! Very much appreciate your generosity, and that you think that highly of the music I sent you!
Maybe it's just the weed but I could watch and listen to this all day. Very relaxing.
I'm always amazed how fantastic these come out. Well done sir
The figuring on that top was stunning !! And like how this came out !! :)
i might put this up for sale.
Enjoyed watching you go through process of bringing the colors to life on this guitar. 💚 the color. Thanks for sharing.
As you might notice... green is my jam, man. Groovy. Man, I'm drooling, that's so gorgeous.

Wow D - lost a ton of weight. Looking good. Fun to see you back staining again.
Amazing Derek! What kind of sanding sealer do you use?
love it! green is my favorite color and that guitar is gonna be beautiful!
it looks awesome
Eye-catching green🤩
thanks!
Great black and green combination. Does the sanding sealer retain the color when the clearcoat is applied.
Man you do such good work. It's crazy our techniques are so different. I can't wait to see what you dream up for a collab with me! But we gotta get some crazy tops from Kimball!
Wow! That’s Sick dude!! 🤘🤘
Love your videos! Very helpful!

Very nice bro! What kind of sanding sealer is that in the rattle can?
Simply beautiful !!
Thank you! Cheers!
Looks awesome 👍👍😊
great work as always D! Looking forward to your next post! 3 weeks was too long of a wait my man!
I have a few videos in the hopper
@@bigdguitars Exactly what I love to hear!
Once again, amazing!
Funny as I watch most of your videos there is a point I go, "No, that looks bad" but by the end it comes out perfect...lol.
always gotta go back 2x
What sanding sealer do you use? Looks amazing
When you first applied the dye, it made the piece look like a shirt that needed ironing.
What is the clear coat you used at the end?
I'll email you today. Let's go! And thanks for turning me on to Derek at Kimball.
Looks great, bro!

I love the videos where you have to get onto the kids, lol. Man, do I know that struggle 😂
Nice !
Green yes Sir i like it .
Why don't you dye the pickup cavities and control cavity in the back? Of course you don't really see them once assembled but just curious?
I love the green you used. Just confirming you used a leather dye for this guitar?
Did you let the first green stain dry first?
Just beautious. 🧡
Thank you! 😊

Big d what kind of humbucker do you use on the whiskey barrel guitars, are they like a half sized? Are they hand wound or do you buy them?
They are hand wound custom pickups. They are hotter paf speced
@@bigdguitars where can I get a set of them?
Used the Angelus dyes based on your recommendations, they are excellent! Thank you.
Would 000 Steel Wool work as well, or is it too abrasive ?
You'll be just fine. Just don't rub too hard. 😉👍
So is that the plain green? Not the Jade or the Kelly? I need that green lol
And just out of curiosity, what sanding sealer do you use?
What canned sanding sealer do you use? Thanks

One day I thought I didn’t like green guitars.
I was wrong that day.
Love it!
Thanks!!
Did you use a random or circular orbit sander with the scotch bright pad?
random orbit makita
@@bigdguitars awesome work!!! Thanks for the response! I’m looking at an offset/Jaguar DIY to finish. I’m loving that see thru green!!! 😍😍😍
me : doesn't like green guitars
Derek : I'm gonna stain a guitar green
me : challenge accepted.
haha
Nice 👍👍
Thanks 👍
Wow

Trendine bir hepsine iki.
How about red staining a black korina top 🤷♂️
Too bad Angelus don't ship to Canada...
Pine always gets blotchy. I never stain or dye pine.
me: WOW It's a butte
BigD: No, it's a guitar
me: And right pretty, too
Thank you for supporting

Hey Derek,
I just saw a maddening idea: checkout Fisher's shop on TH-cam. He's got a video called woven cutting boards. I think this could be a fantastic project for a guitar top. Could fit a tele design without a pickgard.
Let me know what you think !
Amitiés,

Your maple tops will never shimmer with leather dyes check out PRS staining process..
What happened to the tele build giveaway, seems like a scam just to get subs for you and JJs channels, unsubbed...
He gave it away. He posted a video of it. The guy who got it posted on his Instagram.
@@bigdguitars I didn’t see a follow up on TH-cam but okay
I didn’t post a follow up. Just had it on his channel.
