@@FlameInstruments This is a beautiful Guitar! You do beautiful work! What kind of tuners are those? When you were first installing them they looked like cheap Chinese ones. I hope not!
@@FlameInstruments I’m sorry, that I’ve never heard of those before. Personally, I would not use tuners that are not made in Japan, Germany, or the United States. So, if I were you, I would use either Gotoh, Hipshot, or Schaller.
I haven't even gotten a minute into the video and I subscribed. How is this channel not bigger??? Beautiful craftsmanship. Guitar, and dark souls??? Enough said.
Absolutely awesome. That epoxy fretboard is beautiful...and so was everything else. Top notch craftsmanship and presentation. Brings back memories of fighting gank squads with my best friend in Dark Souls 3 back in the day. Huge Dark Souls fan (and now awaiting the Elden Ring DLC...), and this build went FAR above and beyond anything I could have imagined. Legendary guitar. Also nuts how you took those barbs off the fret tangs. Good thinking and just speaks to your experience. Just unbelievable how good it all looks. And absolutely love the LEDs!
Implementing LED was Genius.... Again, very impressed with your builds! I also think that your Valute is very unique! Keep up the awesome work that you do! I can't wait to see the next one!
To be able to incorporate inspiration from a theme into a design of such complexity is an incredible gift. One can only admire the great planning, precision and perseverance that went into this work! It's truly a pleasure to watch. Thank you very much for this fascinating documentation and the hard work!
This has to be the single coolest custom build I've ever seen! Love all the references, and man do I wish I could see that fretboard in person. Stunning work! Praise the sun.
this man knows how to glue, in fact, screw the glue, this is artisan shit bruv, splendid idea and how it turned out? not even gonna comment, it's from a different world so
Ton contenu est lourd de ouf. Quand je regarde tes vidéos c'est soit je rigole de ouf soit je bouge la tête. Franchement bravo à toi et hate de voir la suite !
Amazing, it is so cool to see all of these unique, well made guitars here on YT. I like the LED lighting effects and it was well implemented on this build. Cheers.
I never really watched guitar building videos, that's my dad's thing, but when I saw Dark Souls I had to watch the whole thing. It makes sense now why some guitars are like $400 and others over $4000 lol
Incredible craftsmanship and attention to detail. I came in wanting to just see the end result and how it played, but ended up watching it from start to finish!
WOW just WOW! This is in my eyes THE most badass guitar I've ever seen! I am a huge fan of the Dark Souls Series, and this is an amazing looking guitar! 10/10 my friend!
Omg, it's the most enjoyable video I've seen for a long time! It's double satisfying to see creation of this beautiful instrument for me, as a big fan of custom guitars and Dark Souls series! Thank you!
i had a dream of doing a guitar from scratch once, still have some woods and tools there but my lack of experience, money and determination made me realize i cant do it now, maybe someday in the future. I love Dark souls too, this guitar you made is beautiful, thanks for sharing 😊
I think this is probably one of the most unique guitars ever, mostly because i myself am also a fan, but i loved the way you executed it and thought so creative about it.
Wow, what an amazing project, this is incredible, I will be keeping an eye on you, very happy to have stumbled across your channel! Not only an incredible guitar, but this was extremely informative and great for learning!
This is incredible! Well done! This combines my two favorite things ever. Guitar and dark souls. I have thousands of hours in both lol. I still have to play dark souls often or I get antsy.
Oof, I absolutely love it. As someone who both loves Dark Souls and this kind of dark metal music, this is a such an amazing piece of art and absolutely inspirational!
1) The sanding sponge is so high grit, it doesn't scratch or take material from the fretboard. It only polishes and makes the fretboard look better. The same goes for the steel wool. 2) the hammer was taped many times to make it soft.
Did you even pay attention? Hes using Epoxy for the fretboard, a completely different material to wood. He also did most of the sanding with a board, so he wasnt even touching the fretboard when doing material removal. I dont think you know more about the guitar than the guy who actually built it
@@beenis08 yeah man I apologize, didn't even watch the half hour explanation of the countless hours he put in, maybe next time he could use some naturally occurring wood that let's through light after you sand it with a regular ol 2x4 rather than a block with a radius, I would say he has previous experience making instruments, but hearing how amazing the guitar sounds at the beginning and the end of the video makes me believe he has no idea what he's doing, maybe he has previous experience like on his channel in other videos
This is a really cool build! I love the fretboard with the led and the eclipse led in the body! Maybe to save you opening the wiring cavity you could add a rechargeable battery pack with a small charging port on the side next to the cable jack. But overall a super awesome guitar with some really clever ideas.
Many thanks for a fantastic video showing how you made this amazing guitar. Although the whole finished instrument is beautiful, I particularly love the fretboard. I feel that I need to try something like this at some point! Bookmarked for future reference!
Awesome build, very talented craftsman. Thanks for uploading. My one suggestion is: as the control panel is complex, stuffed, and the builders recommendation is that no one should ever open it. He could have used rechargeable batteries (Or pre assembled battery pack) and simply put in a usb recharge port. That would've given 1k plus recharges and no need to open the battery port for at least a few years. Alternately it could've just been left w usb wiring port that would require usb to be plugged in when lighting was in use-but would never require access to the control box after assembly. Just my suggestion. I think the build is totally amazing and the guitar is a work of art. I never would've thought of that. This guy is amazing! 🙂
I love the idea of a resin fretboard, especially with LED lights. I also think that it would solve fret tang overhang in various weather changes, because wood expands and shrinks based on temp and humidity. But couple of questions...Does the weight of the resin cause neck dive? Also arent you concerned that if the neck warps some, before you can straighten it with the truss rod, that it may just end up cracking the fretboard? (perhaps adding carbon fiber rods in the neck too could help?)
1) there's no neck dive. The epoxy fretboard is very light. 2) the epoxy is more flexible than an ebony fretboard for example, so I'm not worried about cracking. 3) ebony strips which make the laminated neck are "enough", or even stronger than carbon rods.
@@FlameInstruments Thanks for the response! Im a novice at building guitars and would love to try out my own ideas with epoxy as the fretboard too! This was a very fun watch. Ive subbed and liked! Have a good day!
The silhouette is reminiscent of a combination of two of the most iconic shapes there is. 1.) A Special Signature Edition BC Rich. 2.) An offset Zakk Wilde Barbarian Psychic Bullseye (et al). And now that I think about it, how the heck does someone even think that one up? And the enhanced blend is seamless. Really impressive imagination and execution. MAN, that's gonna be expensive!! Oh my God. Look at that fretboard!
me and my friend are currently playing elden ring and my friend asked me about the price of dark souls 3 when we watched this together hahaha absolutely crazy build, instant sub from me and my friend
Wow, really great job! The design and shape really work. That fretboard design is brilliant and unique. That will start showing up in other places now.
You've got some mad skillz brutha..... Definitely earned my subscription !!!!! I'm looking forward to geeking out to your channel. Oh yeah.... almost forgot, 🤘🤘KICK ASS GUITAR🤘🤘
*******Thats a Beauty!! Only thing I would have added was Killswitch and Sustainer System. Lol of course with more battery additions would add some more crazy weight. The Body Design is Sweet too. It will allow multiple knee rest capabilities when not standing and slinging it like a Mighty Sword!! Nice Job Man!!*******
Beautiful guitar awesome work I am probably going to subscribe to your Channel what time does one of the most beautiful and hardcore guitars that I have ever seen
![The Diamond - The Most EXCLUSIVE GUITAR I've BUILT to Date [GGBO2022]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/2Vy-ixfoA4Y/mqdefault.jpg)
This is probably the coolest build I've ever seen on TH-cam. 7 strings and Dark Souls are two of my favorite things on Earth.
Thanks bro! I share your opinion.

This is a beautiful Guitar! You do beautiful work! What kind of tuners are those? When you were first installing them they looked like cheap Chinese ones.
I hope not!
These are locking tuners SGZ-300, made in Korea. Purchased on Bachmusik.com. They are supposed to be high quality.@@TarynnElizabeth619

Takes one passionate man to go the distance to do what seems impossible. You are an inspiration my friend. Thank you for existing in our lives.
I'm absolutely in love with how well the shape of the body and the eclipse go togother!
I felt your craftsmanship, design sense, and overflowing love for guitars.
This is the coolest original guitar I've ever seen.
That fretboard is just... WOW. I'm in love.
World Of Warcraft? Just Kittens.
I haven't even gotten a minute into the video and I subscribed. How is this channel not bigger??? Beautiful craftsmanship. Guitar, and dark souls??? Enough said.
O-M-G !!!!! Your skill is crazy man !
I need this kind of GUITAR on my wall !
Dark souls 4 life!
Oh My Giggles! Just Kittens. Hehe
Such a killer result. The guitar looks excellent and I'm certain The Abyss Watchers would very much approve of the cover at the end.
Too bad it's a failure.
The Wood the Dark Soul!
Guitar player and souls lovers are delighted
One of the best if not thee best guitar I’ve ever seen. The sewing the craftsmanship is on a whole other level.

As a Massive Fan of the SoulsBorne games, and Guitars, This made My Day. Maybe one of these days i'll see about having you make another one for me
Brother... You are a master of your art.. I'm posting this build on my rock forum.. I collect guitars and this one would be a favorite to own..

I went absolutely ballistic when I saw the sandpaper going across the frets and the steel wool WITHOUT THE FRETS TAPED AND BLOCKED OFF. WOW!
also when he hammers in the ferrules with nothing protecting the body

its beautiful and kickass at the same time. amazing work man.
