@@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!
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.
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.
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!
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
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 !
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!
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!
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!
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!
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!
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!
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.
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.
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
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’m new to building guitars and have way too designs in my head I want to build but don’t have the skills for yet. I have always wanted to make a dark souIs or bloodborne guitar and this video has honestly relit my dream to make one. Thanks for sharing your work and thanks for making this beautiful guitar!
An idea to strengthen the Epoxy pour, if you get high tension fishing line [thin] cut into 1 inch pieces and place in wet pour it might cure without notice and give some strength to the pour. Testing with small batch might prove a good solution to cracking a fretboard? Again you builds are beyond amazing to watch and see, many thanks!
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.
*******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!!*******
it was a good entertaintment to watch you build your guitar bro. it was good and i hope you will get your deserved watching and subscription in the future .
Absolutamente genial! a referencia para construção da guitarra sensacional, acompanhado de uma execução caprichosa e perfeita PARABÉNS AMEI O RESULTADO FINAL!!!!
Really awesome craftsmenship! I'm all into 7 strings lately and this would be my dream guitar. I would have gone for 5V led strips and use a 18650 cell with a stepup/charging circuit. Smaller and rechargable, no risk of leakage. But thats just my 2 cents.
![The Diamond - The Most EXCLUSIVE GUITAR I've BUILT to Date [GGBO2022]](/img/n.gif)
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.

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.

One of the best if not thee best guitar I’ve ever seen. The sewing the craftsmanship is on a whole other level.
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.
That was brilliant. It blows me away the patience to make something so unique. Thanks for sharing.

bro this is hella good! i have so many good ideas for new guitars and designs. wish i could somehow make it come to life!

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
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.
It's almost like he's done this before, maybe there's other videos on his channel showing he knows how to build a guitar, the world may never know.
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

This is super impressive
Das ist perfekt!!!Feuer Frei!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
It's absolutely fantastic. However my biggest gripe is that the headstock should have been a reverse in-line type of thing, make it more weapon-ish
Totally love this build more guitar and bass builds please ❤
This is the best thing i seen in youtube
Your skills are phenomenal. Bravo!
Pretty sweet build my friend! Well done! Really well done!
