    Hello from England, I'm a 77 yr old guitar player, and to my old ears, that is the best acoustic guitar I've ever heard. Also the most beautiful. Thank you.

    Beautiful mixture of clear rumble and bell like high tones .

    That’s a killer fingerboard inlay. Damn!!

    The way those stars of David look suspended and falling, morphing into 5-point stars in the flag is nothing short of pure art. I have done a fair amount of inlays, which I considered reasonably well-done, but I am truly humbled by this piece. Excellent!

    I'm so glad you used some sand shading. That really took those inlays to the next level.

    That is absolutely the best sounding guitar I've ever heard , sparkling, transparent tone , with great articulation !

    Unbelievable sound, it's so unique that it needs to be featured in a body of recordings.

    Really beautiful guitar! I would love it with the volute by the back neck at the head stock.

    Wow I actually teared up while you were describing the meaning behind this piece of art.

  • @davejoe2592
    @davejoe2592 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    What a stunning piece. Sadly I'll never be able to buy a guitar that nice. I bet that one is worth 9 or 10 thousand dollars!! Still gorgeous. Everything about it is amazing but the inlays blew my mind.

  • @davidedwards7172
    @davidedwards7172 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    I can say from personal experience that it is an AMAZING guitar. The detail on the inlay is spot on, I'd put this up there with a 1933 Martin that I had the honor to play onetime.

  • @monkeysweeperguitar
    @monkeysweeperguitar ปีที่แล้ว +10

    That’s a hella nice guitar, Chris! Your inlays never fail to amaze me. Keep’em comin’, man!

    You absolutely KILLED it on this guitar... The spinning, morphing 3d stars are captivating.

  • @pook6212

    How it sounds and how it looks = I WANT THAT!!!!! Gorgeous tone, stunning build. A masterpiece of the luthier's art.

  • @mandobob
    @mandobob ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Such strong tone with out being muddy. Mids and lows have very good articulation and highs sound clear and a bit bell like. Good balance. Beautiful guitar.

  • @CountMeDown
    @CountMeDown ปีที่แล้ว +4

    Sounds great! I like hearing these different guitars. Makes me drool over having one.

  • @BenjaminGonzalez-wv3cy

    Only one word to explain the sound of that guitar is Butter!! It sounds so smooth and articulate. Amazing build

  • @paullanier8280
    @paullanier8280 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I thought Matt Chulka @ Eddie's guitars had the easiest job by getting his hands on the best sounding guitars in the universe and playing beautiful music . . . . . Well, you are right up there with luthier skills that make fine sounding guitars, and you both do excellent work!!!
    Make another with some of your Brazillian wood !!! Great work !!!!

  • @allandevore4098
    @allandevore4098 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The guitar is gorgeous, but the most impressive beauty of the guitar is the sound. There is no doubt that is one of the top five best sounding steel string acoustic guitars I have ever heard (based on your TH-cam recording played over my studio monitors, which does not necessarily directly translate to live sound but is highly correlated). I'm super impressed with both the looks and the sound. Congratulations, Chris!!!!

  • @Charles53412
    @Charles53412 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Absolutely beautiful guitar ! The sound was amazing, which I was listening through with a set of Bose speakers. I must say the low end was just spectacular and when coupled with the mid and high range of the strings was just sweetness to the ears ! Which can be said in reverse as well. Fantastic Job !!

  • @dedik8SKB
    @dedik8SKB 5 หลายเดือนก่อน

    would love to see more videos on inlay, I have built more than a few acoustics but never had the confidence to do intricate inlay work like you do. You are a real master at it, the best that I've ever seen to date. Every time you show off your inlay work I feel like less of a builder haha, it's a great testament to your hard work.

  • @dominikprauseguitar

    @truenorthpedals4528 ปีที่แล้ว

    @davidgray2845 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow. That is stunning. I’d be nervous to play it. Been playin 26 years so I’ve gotten better at not dinging my guitars. But eventually it’s gonna happen. She’s gorgeous. Great job!

    @matthewdelpit6621 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    This is the best sounding guitar that I’ve ever heard! And it’s drop dead gorgeous. Hopefully one day another log of similar wood will be found and also that I can afford a guitar of this caliber.

  • @ErnieB
    @ErnieB ปีที่แล้ว

    GLORIOUS! I love the sound of the Walnut B&S, but this is a whole 'nother level. There is a shimmer to the highs, but the body shape and woods make it a cannon on the low end. The Bronze strings have you flirting with "too much of a good thing". Instead, this guitar seems quite comfortable living right on the edge. High Performance, indeed. Impressive.
    p.s. In the spirit of poking fun at snarky comments, will we ever see the Woodstock guitar get finished. ( Sorry, I couldn't help myself.)

    @AcousticJamDad 8 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

    First off, the guitar is just out of this world stunning! I happen to be of Jewish heritage having had my family emigrate to the states a while ago so I can really appreciate the inlay work…BUT WOW, that sound! The first thing I picked up on is the incredible sustain you get out of it. I don’t know if that’s the African Blackwood or the spruce (or both) but it sounds amazing! You know somebody who has spent the time and money in producing this instrument will surely take good care of the woods.
