It’s quite amazing what you can do with the limited tools in your workspace! I can’t imagine what greatness you could achieve if you had access to a 4-axis CNC machine, a pin router, a finishing booth, etc. Fine work, my dude!
Hey man, I’d love to see you make an updated guitar collection video! Seems like you’ve got/made a lot. (Also, unrelated, I would 100% buy a guitar from you. These look like quality instruments)
Watching this whole series has been highly relaxing for me. It is amazing seeing an idea come together, the deliberation, the design, the wrenches in the gears, and the final product. Having teched enough guitars, I have always been interested in a build, but seeing how limited space and gear shouldn't be an obstacle, this series really makes me want to design and build myself. Great work and amazing playing in this finale.
Omg I’ve been watching these building videos so stoked to build my own and I only just read your description and realized YOURE the No Ostriches guy!!!! I love your music! Particularly waiting for perry
Love the look and love the sound! Well done! I’m hoping for another video where u talk about what you learned, the mistakes you made and what you would do differently next time. Thanks for this series!
Amazing result! Thank you for spending endless hours working ok this project, just by watching you I learned so much. Please start your own brand, you have a rare talent and I am sure that your products will receive all the attention required. Best regards from Salt Lake City, Utah.
Beautiful man, and congrats on the amazing build. Thanks for a letting us watch this process. It was so cool to see everything come together and it was actually really exciting. And of course superb playing as usual!
Post a video of the electronics as well :3 This series straight up gave me something to look forward to everyday 🥺❤️ dono what to look forward to now that its over 😔
This is pure gold! It's my dream to build my own headless guitar! Thanks for this amazing tutorial. It's fascinating. Well done! PS: Extra like for no talking and no music.
Very well done. My suggestions for your next build is....It's very easy to set up a fence and use a trim router and a small cutter to rout a straight slot for your switch. By doing so, you'll get cleaner cuts and more professional looks. You don't have to plane your carbon fiber rods, it's easier to actually rout the slot just a smidge deeper. Don't kill your plane iron, sharpening is a boring thing to do. Other than that, you did great. Now it's a bad time to stop making them :P David.
Looks great, i just finished one of my own a few months ago. I like the way you did the string ancor at the head, simple and pretty. Im also very happy with my Mera guitars bridge.
I have to leave a comment here, absolutely amazing work dude all round..It must feel amazing playing something that you crafted. Keep up the good work!!
Extremely inspiring to watch this. I hope to one day possess the tools and patience to do this. How much did this end up costing you to make? (materials)
Looks sick, sounds heavy af, congratulations! I was not a fan of Strandberg-style headless guitar shapes, but I have to admit that this one looks fantastic. Raw and simple, I really like it. Anyway, I can't wait to see your next build, have fun with this one :)
Interesting to note that you put the output jack where your left leg would be when the guitar is in a classical position. If this is intentional, why did you make that cut-out in the first place? Is there another reason?
Sounds great. But in fairness every you play sounds great. Question. How come you didn't space the string anchors at the neck end to give a completely straight path from the nut ? I know that on a non tremolo guitar this wont matter as much for tuning stabilty but still I'm curious Fantastic job. It looks and sounds really great
I forgot there needs to be an access hole for the trussrod adjustment... otherwise the ferrules would have been equally spreaded. I'll have to find a solution for that, either different headstock retaining system or a trussrod adjustment at the neck heel with a spoke wheel.
Great job and the guitar look stunning. Also, I like your approach with the lack of any music, only the sound of actual work. Really good. Just a quick question from pure curiosity. Why you have decided to drill "heads stock" holes kinda off-center? Was it just a pure esthetic choice? I thought that keeping them straight would make more sense for the tuning stability?
They were planned nicely straight of course, however I didn't consider the access hole for the trussrod adjustment, so I had to align them around that. A spoke wheel adjustment trussrod at the neck heel would have been better here and might the solution in the future.
@@MilianMalivukMusic Aaa...you are right. Completely missed this one as well. Yeah, the Charvel style wheel is pretty neat. Although it kinda makes sense more on normal guitar with the head-stock. Anyway, amazing job mate. It was a pleasure to watch the whole process.
Would it be possible to do a spoke wheel at the top of the headstock? Put it underneath where the strings feed through and do the adjusting from the back? Not sure if that’s even doable but it could be cool.
i wonder why the hack that guitar form had always been sought to dismiss the headstock as the extra wood on the head might have potentially further excited the richness in the timbre, that is already resonating the sphericalZ positioned between the legs you know quite handsomely.
@@MilianMalivukMusic yeah i am aware of it, yet it seems as if some uncut headstock design would have looked and who knows perhaps sounded similarly satisfying in the same body type
Wow, man! You are such a talent in many ways! Awesome work! Looks and sounds fantastic! Oo And (of course!) your playing is absolutely incredible! I really like your style! Cheers from Germany!
Oh yeah, and your vibrato! Still working on these wide and fast vibratos on the low strings. But I'm getting there. ;) PS: you certainly know the band Haken?! If yes, what's your opinion on them? If not, go check them out! ;)
The neck isn't particularly heavy, the guitar is nicely balanced! The swamp ash body blank was extremely heavy, but with everything shaved down and it being only 35mm thick it turned out fine.
DANG IT CAME OUT BEAUTIFUL! amazing job! Quick question, so you built this yourself, do you think if you want to save money it'd be a good skill to take up? Using the same material as top of the line brands, is it worth making it yourself? just asking bc I love guitar but it can be a pricey habit if you let it lol
Building guitars is a very expensive and stressful thing if you let it be haha. Sometimes the woods you use will mess up, won't be dry enough, crack, split, etc. It's fun to build a guitar but I recommend doing it at least twice so you can really know what you're getting into.
You can definitely buy a new strandberg for less that what you would need to spend on materials, tools and time to build it by yourself. The benefit of it is the fun making it, not really to save money ;)
The bridge is a non-commercial bridge made by Markline Guitars in Italy. The jack placement is ideal for classical position as well (unless you'd squeeze your legs together and rest the lower tip into your lap, but the guitar rest on the right arch and the one underneath the bridge, not the one under the controls)
@@MilianMalivukMusic I’m like classical position too when sitting but some players must use that rear cut to rest on the right leg. I never experienced a Strandberg but I read a long time ago that Ola designed that cut for that purpose.
It’s quite amazing what you can do with the limited tools in your workspace! I can’t imagine what greatness you could achieve if you had access to a 4-axis CNC machine, a pin router, a finishing booth, etc. Fine work, my dude!
Cool riffs at the end too!
Hey man, I’d love to see you make an updated guitar collection video! Seems like you’ve got/made a lot. (Also, unrelated, I would 100% buy a guitar from you. These look like quality instruments)
The collection hasn't changed that much, but why not :)

Oh my!!!! He is a very Djentleman! Good work.
Literally, was waiting for this!! Finally 🙏
I'm in love with this guitar. It is so beautiful

Siiick, loved this series. The way you let the sounds of your work speak for themselves got me hooked through the whole video. A great job all around.
Great job!!! Congratulations 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

I appreciate including a demo right away!
Tremendous accomplishment: bravo!
Watched the full build.... amazing. Well done that man. Epic.
Man that thing sounds killer
Great work. Nice shredding too.
Damn this is truely one of the most beautfiful headless guitars that ive ever seen
Shalom mein lieber friend
Looks and sounds absolutely amazing, well done!
Congratulations!
This video series might absolutely be the best thing of 2020, thanks for sharing dude!

definitely a 360° talent!
Finally done! I'm happy for you. Next time try make multiscale. Doesn't need to be headleess tho.
Multiscale headless next time 😜
@@MilianMalivukMusic ooo, you're up for a challenge aren't you
This is pure gold! It's my dream to build my own headless guitar! Thanks for this amazing tutorial. It's fascinating. Well done! PS: Extra like for no talking and no music.
Wow, awesome job. I'd be so proud! Enjoy the work of your own hands. Sounds killer, has great character.
This has been so satisfying to watch. Amazing work! Thanks for taking us along for the journey
Absolutely smashed this build, good job and congrats!
Incredible work, it’s a beauty! Thank you for taking us on your journey.
Looks and sounds killer! Will you be posting a followup video where you talk about the hardware and the overall build impressions?
Yes, of course! :)

Looks great, i just finished one of my own a few months ago. I like the way you did the string ancor at the head, simple and pretty. Im also very happy with my Mera guitars bridge.
It was a pure pleasure to follow the making of this guitar, it really makes you want! very nice job man
What a series. It turned out excellently! Nicely done.
Very motivational videos. I don't have instruments and woodworking skills but now I want to build my own guitar.
Outstanding young man - you should be very proud of your work - It sounds great and your playing is top notch - CHEERS
Looks and sounds great. You made it look easy. Congrats 👏
Sounds so good man. Hard work paid off
Looks and sounds amazing dude! Fantastic build. I really enjoyed watching this series. Nice fix on the cavity cover for the pickup switch too🤘🏻
Seeing the entire guitar making process left me with an immense curiosity about luthiery. One day I will still make my guitar! Hugs from Brazil.
yup the same for me. if i ever make one this video will be the reason for that ❤️
Amazing job!!!!! Congratulations!!!!! (Strandberg left the chat..)
I want this !!!! its so SUPERB GUITAR i ever seen...!!!
Really impressive work. Loved the whole series of videos! Guitar is awesome!
Looks and sounds amazing. You're an awesome luthier bro.
Awesome build dude, thoroughly enjoyed the series. You have definitely given me the determination to finish my first build
Go for it!
Amazing work man seriously
Great job man! That thing sounds gnarly. I’m wanting one now.
Looks and sounds amazing!
Amazing job my man. Well done
Awesome
You really can’t appreciate how difficult it is to achieve that level of perfection. I know I couldn’t do it. Good job!
Finally. Great job on the guitar. Maybe in the future we'll get to see one where you paint/laminate the guitar etc....
I don't like painting over wood, I prefer letting the grain speak for itself ;)
Soulhenge guitars confirmed.
Sounds great dude 👍
Dude. You're my favorite person on the entire youtube. This project turned out amazing! Fantastic job 👌
This is so beautiful man, awesome job! Enjoy!!!
Awesome! 🔥
Great job man! Love this series 🤘😎
Great build man, looks beautiful! Thank you for sharing your project with us people on yt :D
looks sick mate, well done!
its like ASMR, but for eyes 😍
Will you ever build a multiscale?
Yes I will try myself with multiscale on the next build :)
@@MilianMalivukMusic Good luck!
Excellent
Looks and sounds killer🔥 Great work!!
this was soo appealing to watch.
I love it!!. I wish i could build something just like this in the future
Great guitar, be proud of this masterpiece! Congrats from Hungary! ;)

Schwing! nailed it! :)
Nice build, especially with the limited tools you have! I'll soon be attempting a headless 5-string fretless bass!
Interesting to note that you put the output jack where your left leg would be when the guitar is in a classical position. If this is intentional, why did you make that cut-out in the first place? Is there another reason?
It's like if Tim Sway made the Plini signature .Strandberg* in his own style, in all the best ways. Love the way it looks and sounds, stellar job!
he actually made a multiscale headless, check his insta
@@TheTeaTVI I know, I watch all of his videos. That one just didn't look like a Strandberg.
so so satisfying!!
Sounds great. But in fairness every you play sounds great.
Question. How come you didn't space the string anchors at the neck end to give a completely straight path from the nut ?
I know that on a non tremolo guitar this wont matter as much for tuning stabilty but still
I'm curious

@@MilianMalivukMusic ah hah. That makes sense now.
Is fitting a heel end truss rod adjustment a lot more difficult?
Great work! How do you get that Clean tone in the beginning of the demo? Highly appreciate it man!
Great job and the guitar look stunning. Also, I like your approach with the lack of any music, only the sound of actual work. Really good. Just a quick question from pure curiosity.

The body shape is the result of the decision to make a headless guitar in the first place, not the other way round.
@@MilianMalivukMusic yeah i am aware of it, yet it seems as if some uncut headstock design would have looked and who knows perhaps sounded similarly satisfying in the same body type
Wow, man! You are such a talent in many ways! Awesome work! Looks and sounds fantastic! Oo And (of course!) your playing is absolutely incredible! I really like your style! Cheers from Germany!
Oh yeah, and your vibrato! Still working on these wide and fast vibratos on the low strings. But I'm getting there. ;)
PS: you certainly know the band Haken?! If yes, what's your opinion on them? If not, go check them out! ;)
Vibrato makes everything more interesting, even the simplest licks! I surely know Haken, been enjoying their latest album!
You should add your logo i think. It is great work
Amazing....
I can see you like Toska a lot :)
Awesome ! I'm really stoked, that guitar looks killer. How's the weight of the neck alone ? Walnut is a great wood but its weight is kinda problematic
The neck isn't particularly heavy, the guitar is nicely balanced! The swamp ash body blank was extremely heavy, but with everything shaved down and it being only 35mm thick it turned out fine.
Is there any way you could post the components used in your build? Great playing btw.
Hi, there's an additional video where I talk about the process and linked all the supplies!
Dude congrats on the finish. Also, was that a 2 to 8 stretch!? Dear God man!!! Come down for us lesser talented folks.
DANG IT CAME OUT BEAUTIFUL! amazing job! Quick question, so you built this yourself, do you think if you want to save money it'd be a good skill to take up?

Great work - curious about the tuners/bridge pieces you're using. Any info on where to track them down - would be very welcome :)
It's all being discussed in the additional episode of this series!
@@MilianMalivukMusic Thanks, will have a look :)
Really nice ! The only thing I don’t like is the position of the jack, it ruins the purpose of that cut. What’s the brand of your bridge ?
The bridge is a non-commercial bridge made by Markline Guitars in Italy. The jack placement is ideal for classical position as well (unless you'd squeeze your legs together and rest the lower tip into your lap, but the guitar rest on the right arch and the one underneath the bridge, not the one under the controls)
@@MilianMalivukMusic I’m like classical position too when sitting but some players must use that rear cut to rest on the right leg. I never experienced a Strandberg but I read a long time ago that Ola designed that cut for that purpose.
Okay, so when will the preorders start? 😬
Pretty fucking amazing! Guitar turned out really nicely! Also jealous of your guitar skills ; - ]
What's your impressions about your new Walnut neck tone wise?
And overall feeling, of course?
Quite dense, but I guess that's also from the ebony fretboard, I like it! It feels extremely smooth to the touch as well!
Your playing style and sound is quite similar to that of John Browne. Nice build!
Amazing build!! What are the specs? 😀
What were the costs, for all of the used componens?
A video about all those details is coming very soon!
Do you listen to Kadinja? I hear lots of similarities in your playing, and Danel and Godet’s styles.
Nice build. Enjoy.
I do! Big fan of Super 90', definitely one of my top 10 albums ever!
Applause! :)
A beautiful work!!! What' s the weight?
Very light, I don't know the exact number but around 3kg should be correct.
Yesssssss !!!
👏
