its refreshing to think that in this mad hotch potch of humanity there exists truly talented people who never cease to amaze me .. i cant saw straight so i turned to bricklaying lol but hats off to those talented woodspiders ... uk
Nice work! Love the bridge placement trick
Wow absolutely stunning
Just amazing... Color hit the nail on the head!
Amazing! Great job!
You have gotten to be a master!!!
Beautiful!
Cool avec en plus la musique qui va bien
38 special👏✌️
Looks great. Would love to hear this one. :)
I will for sure ;)
for a guy and he left it on a stand in a green room with ballet dances warming up. Neck went. Tried to blame it on me but my luthier mate said " No Way" as he'd done the set up. Good job.
Love it...great stuff!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Top shelf all the way!
Congratz! You should build lp special tv yellow with 2 p90s.
I don't like playing on LP and the Special with P90 isn't really my visual taste ahah
How cool was that !
Gibson uses veneer and lots of it...Gibson's semi-hollowbodies like the ES-335 and ES-339 have tops and backs constructed of layers (either 3 or 4) of maple veneer. My understanding is that the veneers are assembled in successive cross-grain layers with the top layer having its grain longitudinal to the length of the guitar. The tops and backs are approximately 1/4" in thickness after layup.
Wow it looks amazing, I personally think that it looks better than most Gibson guitars made. Can’t wait to see what’s next now that you’ve done 2 sg style guitars, maybe a third or a Les Paul?
The next is the white SG Junior 63, I made 2 different SG with the same Epiphone G-310. Neck for the SG Special, and body for the SG Jr ;) After that I don't know, probably an Explorer. I like the Les Paul style, but I really dislike play them, so not a Les Paul ;)
@@Guiohms.m50 that’s so cool, Explorers are some of the best style guitars in my opinion, the headstock works on every Gibson model. Just look at Aldo Novas Les Paul or the Les Paul custom exp
😮 kudos
À Great share 👍🏻🤘🏻🎵🎵
Can you make an sg on demand?
If yes how much , im really interested
Wow amazing job! Where did you find that headstock cover tho?
Hi i have a question, what did you use to get the reflector knobs without the “tone” and “volume”?
I just pull the reflector part with a needle, sand it in circular way with 800grit or something and glue back to the knob ;)
Fuckin awesomeee!
Please, please, please!
Build a replica of a Gibson SG Diablo 2008!!!
Great vid and builts. I want to make a standard. What is the right neck angle if I’m to install a standard bridge? Thanks and regards.
You can check the SG Custom Replica video for that, I guess I say it, not sure
How much do these like cost to build?
do you make these yo order? I'm very interested. Even if this one is for sale
Unfortunately I don't have the time actually, and it's.counterfeit, so I can't sell this one. It cost a lot to do and export overseas even more 🤷🏻♂️
how did you shaped the horns and body? im really interested
I use my personnal template for the body. A rasp for the edge then a cabinet scraper to clean everything
I have an Epiphone G310 that I would love to 'convert' to a Gibson style but want to retain some of the original features and parts. Do you offer this as a service? 😂😂
Hi, sorry I did it only for my self 😉
Another masterpiece this SG special.I as a great lover of this guitar and its history(I own a SG Korina 1993 and a Kirk Douglas Signature modified by me).The quality of your work is crazy!!!I would really like to know if you are going to sell any of these SG,or if you could build another one to a customer's specifications(like Angus' Custom 1970,black and white).
Sorry I'm not a professionnal, I don't sell anything. But thanks !
The back is interesting
Indeed 😉
Another amazing build. Watched both of your sg builds back to back. Can't wait for the junior build. Would you build for a customer or just for yourself?
Thank you, really glad that you enjoy it too !
I made it for myself, I can't compete with Gibson on that.
The Junior only need paint, but with the cold weather, I can't paint in good conditions. I did it last summer, but it was too hot and the paint wasn't able to dry. And I wasn't sure I had enough white can to paint it, If I saw the white primer or if the paint was all over the guitar I mean.
So next try when the spring comming
@@Guiohms.m50 I understood that you make the SGs for you.. I am looking for such a long time to find a real luthier to make me a single humbucking (bridge) SG guitar.
If you want to help me,please PM. Thank you in advance for your replay.
Dude that was superb! I'm looking to do the same with my SG at least some of this mods hahah question if I may...why do you used 2 different types of wood on the conversion? using just mahogany will not be as stronger?
The 2 pieces added on the neck was just some wood I already had to convert the bolt-on neck to set neck 😉 Don't worry, it's super strong as it is
@@Guiohms.m50 Great Work man!
how did you scoop those bevels💀
With cabinet scraper
For my SG Custom 1961-2000's (mixed era design) build, it's right here :

Stunning job, do you have some pdf plans? Those bodys look amazing my email is alex26667@hotmail.com
Please let me know
Please make me a southpaw hardtail strat.
hi! Where did you get the measures to build the body? seems really accurate
I had blueprint to make the template 😉
@@Guiohms.m50 Would you mind sharing that Blueprint with me? Thank you!
How much to build me one? :)
Damn that’s impressive. How long does the whole process take?
Depend how much time you want to spend on it. For this one it was while the first covid lock down. So the parts was longer to receive.
where did you buy this p90?
Which one? The no name I put on it at first or the lollar?
Why banjo frets?
Better feeling, easier to play and more beautiful than regular frets
Which brand grain filler did you use ?
Nitorlack, Made in Espana
What is the white material around the fretboard?
It's a cream ABS binding
@@Guiohms.m50 ohh thank you, one more question, which machine did you use for making an angle in body where neck connects? or did you use CNC
@@soki9068 Just a router with a template I made. A digital angle gauge was used to route correctly too
Killer !!! Putain la vache.
i'd love to modify an epiphone SG custom ebony. rework the back of the neck's profile, add two switchs for humbucker/single, Frank Marino's way.
or maybe make it more gibson, although it's very close.
problem is, i have no real vintage gibson in my hand to take measurments ...
on sale ?
Nope
How many coats of tru oil did you apply?
More than 30 I guess
Why did you use oil and no varnish?
@@dimitrisaivaliotis5616 Easier to apply, more healthy to breath and better for the wood
We need a Black Sabbath cover on this beauty. I plan on buying the epiphone sg special they dropped last year but building one looks sweet well done
Why not relocate neck deep in the body along with the P90's like an ESP/LTD guitar? . Neck joint would be stronger and make it feel like a Fender guitar, I mean, everything balanced. I love your work but SG's are not my faves .... only Specials with P90's. By the way, I got an SG-style guitar (LTD) and is balanced ... even with 24 frets !!!
I didn't relocated as ESP/LTD because it's a 1963 SG Replica, not a ESP/LTD Viper which I hate the design ahaha
Don't worry, the neck joint is strong as it should ;) Everything is balanced, no neck diving at all
Fuckin rad!!
It looks like I got ripped off. I bought a Gibson SG a while back for about $2500.00 and it was made up of a bunch of Lath Glued together.
Yep, Gibson does that on their USA series. Probably on the Custom Shop with opaque finish
@@Guiohms.m50 Yeah. I didn’t see it until I had the Guitar for a couple of years. I don’t know if it was because the guitar was aging or if it was there from the beginning and I didn’t notice it.
Why is the hell would you put those cheap bogus fret nibs on????????
Because 🙂
fret nibs look great
Fist !!!!!
Todo perfecto hasta que has insertado el logo Gibson.
Eso es un fraude amigo.
Too bad 😉
@@Guiohms.m50 Una pena que no lo entiendas.
@@msmm.2871 Google traduction help, but if you can talk in English, I could reply without it
Beautiful!
