Custom builder here. this guy did a good job. A lack of expensive specialty tools forced him to make custom jigs to accomplish specific jobs. The jig for a comp radius was simple and effective. Good problem solving and critical thinking skills as well. A person needs to be Intuitive in this game in order to achieve quality. Not everyone has that. Keep building man.
Thanks a lot 🙏
This is one of the things that I hope to do one day! Right now I just don't have the tools, or the space but might try a Kit Guitar first...
@@72Z15SS most kits are super poor quality. So don’t expect it to be anything amazing. But building is one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done. It’s great. Get into it if you can. You may look into a makers space in your area if they have one. It’ll have most the tools you need.
The radius jig was smart.
+1 !!!
This for me, is the best video of a guitar built from scratch that I’ve ever seen!!! Everything about this video knocked my socks off. Fantastic craftsman, luthier, artist, designer,musician and much more…👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
And it ain't 45 minutes long.

Huge respect for this dude not only did he make a fantastic guitar but he plays guitar as well as his luthiery 👍
The whole color scheme and characteristics are so tasteful… from the binding, to the pickups and hardware selection.
I liked the fact that you accepted the mistake and turned it into a feature instead of feeling sad. Very nice work!🎉
oh he felt sad, unless he is that kid on the devils hour, Isaac... DOH!!!
Absolutely phenomenal build. The detail that went into the neck pocket, the tremolo, the pick up cavities, the pick ups, the neck and the body... it's insane!
I absolutely love how it sounds too. Freaking amazing tone!
Any chance it's up.for sale???
@@CallMeBigWorm Да! Интересно, за сколько денег?
brilliant - enough info to see how you worked through the build and all the jigs and techniques you used without ever getting bogged down and the result is just beautiful - thanks for taking the time and effort to record your build and share it with us. I particularly liked your trem stop idea
I love it. Very good job making it not just another strat. It has its own shape and character.
This is so cool!!!! Beautiful work, great problem solving, gorgeous guitar, sounds excellent, and phenomenal playing!!!! My hat's off to you.
Wow! Unbelievable! Start to finish.... crazy good stuff! All the way to the jamm at the end. Tremendous talent. Wonderful.
Beautiful! I love how you showed your mistakes and make it work for you. I love the Vega trem and your DIY stopper.
Amazing work. Loved seeing how you worked through unexpected issues (upper horn, in particular; adding the lines as a graphic flourish to cover the seam line was very clever).
And I'm FLOORED by the recessed vibrato system - that is SO cool.
Bravo dude... Beautiful Construction focused in things that matter a lot... locking tuners, dual humbackers, bridge with locking option! Really meant for the player. The best I saw in 2022
Nice to see you enjoy your efforts at the end! In my eyes , your the “Great Guitar Build off” Champion of 2022! Perseverance, oops’ s , problem solving,Tremendous ! Thanks for Sharing , a total joy!
Beautiful job! And a huge respect for your adaptability and your crafting tips!
Beautiful & totally original. Love the back of the neck, love the trem stop, love the opposing fret dots locations, love the coil split (best pickup combo ever). Incredible & now I know what I want to do in retirement 🤘🏼
You sir, are an artist. A labor of love.
The sound is great! Amazing craftsmanship and I love the design, too!!
I can easily say I love everything about the video, the process and the final result.
Great build! Loved seeing all the jigs and clever problem solving. Thank you for leaving in the mistakes! It's encouraging to know that I'm not the only one that screws things up-and that it can be fixed.
Also, excellent playing!
Sounds beautiful and looks beautiful
I love the planer mistake. Adds uniqueness and depth to the guitar.
Very impressive. This is one of the best build videos I've seen.
Awesome guitar build! I love how you solved the problem with the bindings after you ran it through the planer. I started building a guitar with hand tools some years ago and it is still halfway finished in my shed. This inspires me to continue building. Great work! And a very versatile guitar too! So many different tones, from Pantera to Cyndi Lauper!
Wow! What an incredible job! Excellent sound check too.
Its a work of art. Amazing. Simply gorgeous.
Actually can't tell what's more impressive, creating or playing skills of this young man👏👏👏👏🤚👏
One of the best build vids on this platform. So good to watch! Thanks for sharing your amazing talent and skills… and then… Pink Floyd, Mother… Queen, BoRAP… and Heavy Rock. Bloody hell. So good! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Great job! Seeing the custom built jigs was awesome.
Looks good! Sounds good!
Rock n Roll, man!
Wow.. that guitar looks absolutely beautiful.. love the white stripes around it.. I just love this guitar! Amazing work!!
Looks awesome and sounds great. I particularly like the binding and body colour. It looks like one of a kind and it is!
The quickly moving edits are kinda funny, the transition from showcase was legendary, and the playing with different varieties of genres is legendary.
Good work. Gorgeous guitar.
Absolutely beautiful looking and sounding guitar. Respect on that build!
Beautiful job, something to cherish and be proud of.
The way you created and positioned that neck rout template is absolute genius!!!!!!!!
That solution is very cool and creative, I have never seen that before.

Amazing guitar! I love the way you "stitched" together the part of the body that chipped off at the start

I'm a neophyte guitar builder, and just finished a jazz bass for my dad....I feel in awe of makers like this fine gentlemen!
I like your guitar builds very much! Please make more!
Wow! Beautiful. I also really like how the back of the neck is NOT rounded. If you think about it, it really doesn’t need to be rounded. Great work dude.
Stunning. What q beautiful looking guitar
What a beauty. This 👉 11:33 is so cool. One guitar to rule them all.
Great playing, too.
A Masterpiece Instrument
