I have watched this series at x2 and it has been amazing, I love the woodworking its definetely on my bucketlist, make a guitar by hand. I have recently got my custom headless build from a friend and I have to admit that you Markline custom gave me some cool ideas. Cheers !
Although I still have to do pickup routes, I'm at this stage of building a 7 Strandberg body copy, but it's a bit more custom than just their specs. Doing a 25-26.5 scale, I need to buy some neck wood and finally start on that
I just can imagine that feeling when you first time screwed that neck to guitar. It must felt somewhat awesome! Keep on going with these series, looking good! :) Cheers from Finland!

@@MilianMalivukMusic Wow. Ok. Thanks for the info. I really love this series. It’s extremely pleasant to watch! And your progress is obvious! Really nice guitar!
Two questions - I notice when you were rounding the body edges you were using a thin card to remove all the dust. Why not use a brush, or does that card actually help shape the wood? Also, how long in real time was that neck shaping process? It looked like it was probably a full day at least?
You probably mean the scraper :) It's made of stainless steel actually and has very sharp edges, it's a very handy shaping tool! Haven't counted the hours for the neck shaping only, but it's not taking ages, maybe a long morning of work. It depends on how much time you want to spend on the neck volute and neck heel. My goal was to achieve perfect comfort to the hands, but they're not 100% perfect in shape.
@@MilianMalivukMusic Awesome, thanks for the reply. Yeah it was hard to tell how long the shaping really took, the rasps seemed to do a good job of taking material off, but then there was a lot of detail work too so I couldn't really envision the full length of time required.
@@witeshade That Shinto rasp eats away the wood like nobody's business, so you can work pretty fast. The detail work costs time of course, scraping and sanding until there are no marks left.
Great work, man. How do you have all these tools? The only guitar-related tools I can justify for myself are the ones that can fit in my gig bag's pocket.
Lots of stuff like clamps, screwdrivers, pliers, files etc, the machine tools like drill, jigsaw and generally the workbench and that clamping table are from my grandfather, it's his basement I'm working in. So I had a lot of tools ready to work with, but I acquired a lot by myself over the last three builds (this is my third guitar) like the spindle sander, router, drill stand, etc. I stopped counting how much I spent on tools because I honestly don't want to know 😂 For me the tools are more than for this project and guitarbuilding. I will use that drillstand for instance during my entire life, I love DIY stuff so it'll pay off at some point.
Not sure how this would be relevant here but I alternate pick, or "lazy" pick by doing lots of hammer ons with the left hand instead of picking the notes with my right hand.
Okay, paused again... ;) I know your master! It's one of mine. It is Ben Crowe, right? ;) But do you also know Rosa String Works? Highly recommended! :)
@@MilianMalivukMusic hahahaha yes!! 😂 I feel you with the mobile games and ads; idk but with me seeing ads I just reject completely or have a very bad prejudice towards the brand/product. But apparently it works out with most people. 🤷🏼♂️ Anyway, you probably got asked this a lot but do you also play acoustic and do you consider to build an acoustic in the future?
@@GuitarVocals9 I do own an acoustic Ibanez that I play not very often, so I'm not really interested in building these. They require so much more effort, they have almost nothing to do with an electric guitar from a building perspective. It's just another level!
Such an enjoyable series. Great seeing how much progress you've made since you showed off the first guitar you worked on!
Cinematography is spot on.
Doing this type of work is actually extremely healthy for your mind.
Good on you , Cheers from Michigan
It absolutely is, and I wanted to share some with the world. Cheers man!
Both relaxing and agonizing at once. I applaud you! The moment the neck was bolted on I imagine it felt amazing.
You are doing a hell of a job man. Thank you for sharing.
This is truly an excellent series. I cannot wait for the next episode!
Dialling in that wizard neck profile. Love it!

Bro this series is awesome
Make a video explaining how you got into guitar making and how one could possibly get into it aswell 🥺🙏
5:40 he be strokin!
Very impressed by the simple and calm/controlled and very tastefull way you do your builds! Your first build was like many peoples 10th! Clear talent!
It's my third guitar overall, but thank you very much!
@@MilianMalivukMusic I know, i am 3 times impressed by this one! Was talking about the first one as well! 🏆✌️😊
Awesome work, looking forward to the next video!
It looks killer, super cool to see it take shape after the IG posts
Although I still have to do pickup routes, I'm at this stage of building a 7 Strandberg body copy, but it's a bit more custom than just their specs. Doing a 25-26.5 scale, I need to buy some neck wood and finally start on that
thank you!
That file sure earned its keep :D Great series.
cool build documentary, well done :) looks like a good clean build! but I suggest to look into how to use a card scraper and how to sharpen it :)
Perfect videos after a lockdown day job. Thank you
You should enter the great guitar build off 2021 - your builds are great!
Great job man, you're showing a lot of progress since your first build. I also did the video format a lot.
I love this so much
this is really awesome !

Ngl... I'm here for that tung oil action!
Main difficulties are done!
Привет, а чем это ты поры заполнял? акриловая шпаклевка??
Unsubscribed so I could subscribe again. Amazing work, really inspiring.
haha thats the first time i have heard some french come out, that "putain" made me laugh

Amazing :)
This is so cool! Love these kind of videos. Which language where you speaking with the girl on the phone?
Luxembourgish, and some English which you probably understood ;)
@@MilianMalivukMusic Wow. Ok. Thanks for the info. I really love this series. It’s extremely pleasant to watch! And your progress is obvious! Really nice guitar!
really want one...
don´t use a shape curve template? looks very comfortable and soft
Love the guitar, but why a red bridge?
Two questions - I notice when you were rounding the body edges you were using a thin card to remove all the dust. Why not use a brush, or does that card actually help shape the wood?
Also, how long in real time was that neck shaping process? It looked like it was probably a full day at least?
it wasn’t a card, it’s a sharp metal tool that is shaping the wood and making it smooth
You probably mean the scraper :) It's made of stainless steel actually and has very sharp edges, it's a very handy shaping tool!

Un français, enfin 🤣 Merci pour ta série de vidéos !!! Joli travail en tout cas 😉
Luxembourgeois ;)
Jesus, thank you for this. It's the perfect thing to get my mind off of this nerve-racking election

@@MilianMalivukMusic I see. Well, I'm sure your grandfather is very happy that you are putting his stuff to good use :)
@@MilianMalivukMusic which drill press are you using?
@@solwinds6031 Wolfcraft. Should last a lifetime.
@@MilianMalivukMusic it looks great, which model is it? Looking to get one for myself.
Sweet! Is the body swamp ash?
I wish i have one someday 😞 🙏
It looks so sexy, really nicely done. Makes me want to build one
2:17 want a break from the ads?
Where can one purchase the necessary components for a build like this?
I made a video after the build talking just about that :) check the video playlist!
@@MilianMalivukMusic Perfect! Thanks for the vids and awesome work.
Alternate picking or economy picking????
Not sure how this would be relevant here but I alternate pick, or "lazy" pick by doing lots of hammer ons with the left hand instead of picking the notes with my right hand.
Okay, paused again... ;) I know your master! It's one of mine. It is Ben Crowe, right? ;) But do you also know Rosa String Works? Highly recommended! :)
It's totally Ben Crowe, I absolutely love that man haha
Never heard of it, will check it out!
@@MilianMalivukMusic Cool, man! Thanks! :D
excuse me, do i have to subsrive to be able to access the plans?
Yes, they are part of my Patrons-only perks :)
What is that tool that you use to scrape that looks like a credit card?
It's called a scraper!
05:40 Nice touch zooming in at this moment :D and that's a nice tutorial and all, but how good are you at RAID - Shadow Legends? :'D
Explicit content warning 😂 I HATE mobile games, I hate the ads, they go on my nerves!

Does anybody else unconsciously try to blow away the wood shavings?
Everything about this video a sexual 🤣
