[GUITAR BUILD] Building a semi-hollow double cut guitar.

- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 28 ส.ค. 2024
- This guitar was built as my entry to the Great Guitar Build Off 2022 however the build process took me way too long and it wasn’t finished in time for the judging.
I wanted a guitar that I could use through an amp but also acoustically so I went for a semi-hollow design. I have only built one semi-hollow before and never built one with double cut aways like this.
All in all I’m very happy with the outcome, it plays nicely and sounds great both through an amp or without.
There is full 46 episode build series here... if you would like to see in detail how tthe guitar was built.

At this point, it's no longer a guitar, it's a work of art ...absolutely beautiful 🤩
Did I just watch this guitar being built again? Hell yes I did!
Cheers buddy :)
Yeh it’s great to see all the time, effort and care that went into this guitar again Patrick.
Sounds great too!
Thanks Dean, bought back some good memories editing all of that down :)
Patrick, thanks for this summary/full-build video.
Thanks for watching buddy :)
I love this build. And you really nailed the color. Great job brother!
Cheers buddy, I'm really happy with this one :)
Quite possibly the most beautiful thing I have ever seen.
Nice work, nice guitar, lot of know how there, well done.
Nice long short version, but I'm glad I watched all of the original series :)
Cheers Damien, new series coming right up :)
I've never in my life seen a guitar so methodically built. Amazing craftsmanship from start to finish. How much would a guitar like that sell for?
Great recap Patrick! Absolutely beautiful guitar!
Cheers Dane, glad that you like it :)
Absolutely beautiful guitar, no cnc here... But geez, at least use a push block when using your table saw, kick back can be nasty on the wrists, ask me how I know...
Thanks Rick, I generally use a push stick ( I'll be honest, I avoid the table saw as much as possible) but sometimes I feel the control is better when hand holding. I really want a bandsaw big enough to make the tablesaw redundant!
Been back diving into your build videos... Totally love that color. Fantastic job as always...
Aww man, what incredible skills you have. It was a pleasure to watch you work😊
Thanks, really glad you liked it.
Brilliant Patrick, just brilliant.
Thanks mate, couldn't have done it without you :)
@@Adventuresfromtheshedofdreams ha, and likewise, although in my case it really is the truth, I’ve just got my final vid up
Verdadeira obra de arte!
Guitarra linda! Parabéns.
muito obrigado, fico feliz que tenha gostado.
Congratulations on another amazing g build patrick. How you find the time to build and film so many builds is beyond me.
Cheers Jurgs, it makes me wonder myself sometimes!!
Nice work sir! Really enjoyed watching. Thank you.
Just wonderful. Thanks. I want to play that!
Thanks mate :)
Beautiful!
Thank you!
you should have a million subscribers, That was fantastic
Great build compilation video! The guitar came out beautifully!
Thanks mate, glad you like it :)
great build from start to finish!
Thanks Bill :)
Nice build buddy! I like the f hole shape on this one 😎
Cheers, I think they work really well on this design.
So beautiful… great job
Thanks
Thanks for watching :)
It's great to see this total compilation video of the whole build. Great job, and I'm sure it's a joy to play.
Thanks John, I'm really pleased with this one. Plays really well and sounds good.
Sounds fantastic mate, another great result! What's next? I think you should try an acoustic build.
Cheers Mick, new build coming up in a week or so, something a little different. I'm still too scared of acoustics lol.
Hello. Thanks a lot for your great video. Your guitar is nicely built and looks great. I built a violin already using tube videos and book. I think I should try a guitar that I love too.
Fantastic!
Cheers mate :)
Wow, mantap gitarnya, ❤❤👍👍👍
Thank you very much.
@@Adventuresfromtheshedofdreams your wellcome
Beautiful. But bummed I couldn't hear it.
Glad you like it, I'm much better at building them than playing them but a demo of this one can be found in the last build video... th-cam.com/video/IgYZwyE27Wo/w-d-xo.html
It’s really amazing, looking back over all of the work that goes into making a guitar, when you see how many different people are on the production line in a guitar factory doing different tasks! You have to be a polymath when you are are luthier. Any guessing how long it took you? It’s certainly not a straightforward build. It’s come out so nicely, how much does she weigh? The volute still gives me that special feeling! Well done Patrick!
Cheers mate, I don't have a clue how long it took, at a very rough guess I'd say about 120-140 hours. It's a total featherweight for one of mine at 3.2KG
Enjoyed the video, nice build. How does it sound?!
Cheers, I'm really happy with how it sounds. It's got a nice mellow acoustic sound and a good range of amplified sounds and doesn't feed back unless things are getting very loud!
Aw, no sound demo???
What clear stuff did you use? You fingerrd it on and buffed it in.
how many degrees of tiltback did your neck have to the body? nice carved, arched top!
What length of trussrod did you use? I am about to start my first build and going the heel route. Got an 18" trussrod but it doesn't go to the nut on a 25.5" scale from the heel. I cannot find an answer anywhere. Any help is appreciated!
I used a 440mm rod so about 18" ish. you don't really need it to go all the way to the nut if it adjusts at the heel. It does it's work in the middle of the neck.
How light is this guitar?? It looks amazing but I’d love to know how much it weighs
Thanks, it came in at a touch under 3KG, you hardly notice it's on the strap.
@@Adventuresfromtheshedofdreams cool! I’m thinking of doing a headless 8 string and probably hollow body, but I couldn’t figure out how much hollow body reduces weight. I’m aiming for just over 2.5 kg
What a beauty, and the colour, f****************ck! (excuse mi language)
Thank you very much :)
Sound clip please.
Working on it...
hi I'm Josh what kind of Glue did you use
Hi Josh, ttiebond original.
Your demo at the begging sounded like the one from IOS GarageBand pretty much exactly! I'm amazed!
Very much a windows and Android guy so have no clue about Garageband, nice to know my playing sounds like something that isn't a strangled cat though :)
are you shipping world wide?
I don't really sell my guitars, I'm just building my collection :)
...nice furniture...but what does musical instruments have to do with it?...
пипец без CNC как пещерные люди прям копошатся. и потом видно ручную работу, - кривенько всё, глаз музыканта он очень точный
Спасибо, в этой мастерской нет ЧПУ. Надеюсь, вам понравилась сборка.
Neck looks like a ball bat and the Headstock is too thick....
Looks like too much work.....
Super!👍
Thank you :)
All that video seemed more to advertise the planners than making a guitar. Sorry to be so rude.
..a person knows nothing about musical instruments...from the word "in general"...
