- What is the GGBO?
Crimson Guitars kindly invited me to compete in their annual 'Great Guitar Build Off Invitational' - a challenge where a bunch of TH-cam woodworkers (and Brad Angove) compete to build the best guitar they can from a standardised kit. The guitars will then be raffled off, with the proceeds going to charity - in my case Macmillan Cancer Support.

Haha there was more of me than there was of the original kit body when you finished that. Awesome build.
Brad, I can think of no greater compliment than this kind of friendly, dare I say brotherly, teasing! It is a testament to the respect you have earned, and the impact you have had, on the TH-cam guitar builder community! I WISH I had such a skilled builder honor me in this way! I'm curious to see what kind of friendly trash-talking follows among the other GGBO builders!
This has to be one of the most beautiful guitars I have ever seen.
Great work!
Thank you! ❤️
For some reason I'd call this guitar "handsome" instead of beautiful, but I don't know why....
I absolutely love what you did with this. A bold move going for no cutaway, it gives off a classical instrument vibe while being an electric guitar and the wood you used is just stunning. Brilliant work.
Oof…that tone pot 🥲 that hurt to watch. Excellent build man! Beautiful. Love the top
It was a vibe killer for sure 🥲
Being following you now for several years. You inspired me to build my own guitar, a Solo, Les Paul Spalled Maple Top. It turned out great. You were just getting going with your channel ,with not a lot of followers. Think I just entered , building a guitar on You Tube, and you came up. Glad to see that you’ve become a huge ,top tear guitar guy on You Tube.
I like the idea of a smaller hollow body like this. The violin-esque tail piece is beautiful.
Ebony tailpieces are the best
Fantastic! Nothing like a new guitar that looks like it already knows the music you'll both be playing!
Cant wait to see this one! Your work is always exquisite
I knew I was going to love this video and build from the very start, with the way you introduced your materials! I loved every bit of this build, including a hidden lamination of 'Brad'! 😆 Great job!
One of my favorite builds I've seen this year!
Looks great and sounds stunning. Thanx.
Beautiful! I built (assembled) an LP guitar from a pre-cut kit and I found that daunting - I can't imagine how much work was involved in this build (in real time)! I'm impressed.
Most beautiful GGBO ever man! Congrats
Lovely bright sound - great work!
Wow! Great work! You are very talented, sir, the guitar came out beautiful!
Fabulous build, love the guitar
Beautiful job!!
Beautiful! Love the talent.
Stunning build!

Great build man! I really enjoyed it.
That looks and sounds great.
Wonderful sound has this guitar, Bravo Master, that is the masterpiece
Wow!
Beautiful instrument.
Beautiful instrument, loved watching this video
Nicely done my friend. Lots of Brad love going on.
Great build! Love the tailpiece and the finish especially.
Cheers! Can't beat a good ebony tailpiece 😉
Great work!
That is a beautiful guitar man. Nice job!
Beautiful work, love that tailpiece.
Absolutely gorgeous
Absolutely love this one! ❤
You are super talented. Well done
Very beautiful looking and great sounding guitar.
Beautiful realization
WOW ,such an awsome build for a very lovely instrument...
✌😎👍
Nice looking and sounding guitar well done.
Welp, after watching going to have to go get some tickets for that beauty. Already have many tickets for Brad's build, plus a few other builds as well, now to add this one to the list of chances. Still learning to play, but would be great to have a one of a kind guitar to play someday.
I watched Ben Crow's review of this build and have to agree, well deserved first place. Wow! Beautiful instrument.
Best I've seen so far. Subscribed.
Thanks ❤️
Amazing work my man.
Brilliant, gorgeous, and sounds beautiful. Well done! Me want. ;o)
Gorgeous.
Congratulations! You deserve it.
Cheers! That was a nice Christmas surprise!
Gorgeous Instrument
Gorgeous guitar
Very beautiful guitar.
Fantastic work as always Isaac.
Cheers Symon! Hope you're well
Great idea
Beautiful
Thank you, Sir Bonehead
That guitar sounds beautiful
Fantastically nice
awsome build ,Godbless
Beatiful guitar.
Beautiful guitar. Would have liked the inner of the f-holes white to match the binding. They would really pop! But absolutely gorgeous and great detail.
A KEEPER! THANKS FOR THE VIDEO!
Amazing.
Looks and sounds damn good
Awesome
Just WOW. !! The coulour...Mmmmm
BY FAR my favorite of the build off
Woohoo thanks!!
Nice!
That's really great. I'm not even mad about the lack of cutaway.
Loved, loved, loved the Brad face!!!!! Brilliant.
The face only a mother could love
As usual nice work Brad, your finishes are always great. What glue did you use for the binding ? Also would laminating the veneers work using Titebond ? Keep them coming mate.
Comedy in luthiery. Brilliant!
such a classy instrument!
Why thank you ❤️
Sweet!
that is a beautiful guitar
Love it! Maybe a bit of Fano inspiration there?
+1 for the Modest Mouse tattoo! Great video man
Good grief this cool!🎸😳🎸😳
The Brad is a beautiful guitar!
Bought a ticket for this before seeing the build. Fun little hidden feature you added.
I hope ol' Brad hasn't put you off!
@@CranmerGuitars oh no. It made me laugh, not as hard as your melon experiment.
Great build, where did you get the ebony tailpiece from?
Very Nice !!!
The "C" in jcmakesit is Cranmer
Great build!. Brad tone sauce gives a guitar that special sound and feel.
I really liked the oval neck pocket (guessing you had to shape the neck tenon also ). I really wish you showed how you did that.
Ah, yeah. It was a strat kit, so the neck carve continued into the neck pocket. I basically just cut the neck slightly at the body joint with a tenon saw, inlaid the ebony in the body, and then shaped it to fit. Didn't think anyone would notice!
As a woodworker and a guitarist I loved the build. Had me a little worried at 1st with tossing the material around and the veneer, the final was outstanding. Great sound. Is there a way to find out what pickups were used? I would love to build a F-Hole curved top LP shape/size similar to the way they build archtop guitar.
I swear this would looked and sound better with P90's in it! Awesome build dude!
I think Brad was trying to pick up a few secrets! That really does look and sound amazing.
Brad gave me the extra tone I needed
I love this so friggin much.
Did you know it's being raffled off for charity and it could be yours for the low low price of $4?!
@@CranmerGuitars 😆
Update… raffle tickets purchased.
I've bought yours too! Should we just call the whole thing off and swap guitars? 😎
Did you radious the sides of the guitar to get that small arch or was its just from the block you glued in the middle? Or is there no arch and in just seeing it wrong lol. Looks like a fun guitar to make
I think your competitor won. He’s in your headspace. Kidding awesome build!!!!
You're probably right... Although his headspace is in my guitar, so I think I get the last laugh
j'adore. J'ai regardé la vidéo au moins 4 fois. J'aimerai me lancer dans la fabrication de cette guitare. Mais je n'arrive pas à trouver les plans. Ou pourrais je les trouver ? Elle ressemble à une little sister.
J'espère que vous pourrez me renseigner. En tout cas bravo c'est très jolie
Sublime tone, outstanding finish 💜
what pickups are those?? it sounds really good!
Without a doubt, a beautiful guitar and masterfully built. One point though, I would have liked to have seen an open slot headstock with three tuners each side. I don't feel the traditional six on one side with this excellent body shape does it for me. Not a big concern. I particularly liked the smaller front bout that you have designed and the F holes. Cheers from Australia!!
Thanks. I agree - unfortunately the kit that crimson sent me was already cut for a 6 inline headstock 😔
Other than the staining (which was absolutely horrible) and the less-than-adequate finish, this was a very interesting build. I wish you had explained more what you were doing and the materials you used at each step.
You must have me mistaken for @BradAngove
Amazing build, and really great general woodworking technique! I've never seen a hole saw used like that... and were those shower curtain rods you used as clamps? Very clever and effective, thank you!
Thanks! You're right - they're shower curtain rods! They're really great for adjusting tension/ length
I have no idea who that guy is. That aside, this was a phenomenal build. I would happily gig that if I were still in my gigging days!! Beautiful result and sounds great!
He's one of the other competitors and he kindly invited me to trash talk. Very Canadian of him. Glad you like it!
What kind of paint did you use for that top, mate?
The smashed veneer idea was an inspired one, even if it didn't work out for you.
I think I'd need to add the smashed veneer at the same time as the maple ones. It was only 0.6mm, so there'd be no room for error!!
Love the video, love the build! What would give better tone though, a tone-Brad or a tone-Ben between the veneers?
I should have laminated Ben in the back and made them stare at eachother for eternity 🌚🌝
@@CranmerGuitars That would be hilarious! 🤣
Bonjour beau mec sur la photo ? Sinon la guitare est magnifique le contraste jaune et le blanc très bon choix 👍 très bon travail 👍👍👍🙋🏻♂️🙋🏻♂️
Beautiful built! But I wonder how much hollow body vibe it actually has since sides, top and back are pretty thick and it has a sound post. I am guessing it responds and sounds more like semi/335 design? (nothing wrong with that)
lovely 🔥🥰🥰🥰🥰
damn that might be the very best guitar on the entire planet - i would play the holy shit out of that guitar every single day
Sweet and simple yet utterly beautiful. Fantastic. I wish I could try it. Are you taking orders?
I'm planning on making a few of these in spring next year (minus Brad's face, of course.) Keep an eye out!
How thick is the piece you drilled into at 5:20?
Is it possible to get this guitar built in left hand and what is the cost?
