Every choice on this build was so cool, even the mistakes that were resolved. The way the grain popped when you did the finish made me go "Oh!" (in a good way). That dark (almost black) finish looked like vinegar and steel wool. Your use of hand tools shows a great dedication to the craft, and I know those are challenging.
Great build videos! Thank you for not adding over bearing annoying background music while showing us the true life of building a guitar. Mistakes and all!
I've always wanted a tele with a floyd. Now seeing this I think it will be one of my winter projects. I already have some ideas, not quite as elaborate as yours but still really cool! What a fantastic build! Your choice of woods and Gotoh parts... The video, showing all the individual steps was excellent! That's a beautiful guitar my friend and your craftsmanship top notch! 👍🏻
I was laughing out loud watching the ordeal with the magnets and switching to good ol' screws. Great to see the struggles and the bad and ugly. Nevertheless, the end result is beautiful!
Wow, this guitar build is amazing! The way you’ve put everything together is truly impressive. From the choice of materials to the precision in the design, everything looks top-notch. I can tell a lot of care and skill went into this-definitely one of the coolest builds I've seen. Keep up the great work!
I just stumbled across your video, great guitar! I enjoyed watching your building process and video editing as well! The guitar not only looks great but sounds awesome as well!
Wow! Love seeing super capable people build things. When are you getting a small cnc?!?!?! I haven't built a guitar from scratch yet and probably should do it before going cnc but my head is aching, soul is hungry, to build a guitar with a cnc. And yes, Lee Nielsen is most definitely worth the investment! Good show, man!
I really want a CNC, but I convinced myself I'd have to go for an Avid machine. Buy once, cry once 😅. I agree though, best to build from scratch first before building with CNC.
@ I’ve been looking at shop saber for my cabinetry business but I kind of just want a table top machine for fun work instead of processing panels. By the time I’m into 4x8 or 5x10 with ATC and vacuum table, cost is more than I want to drop at the moment. Maybe a used desktop shopbot. I have seen those smaller Laguna/Powermatics used for a fair price. I’ve also considers building my own but haven’t calculated the cost savings over buying a used machine. Anywho, you’re clearly super capable dude. It’s awesome to watch!
@@DUY1337GUITAR at 1900 for reconditioned it might be worth it. I never really had an interest in the shaper origin till recently. Was a guy from New Jersey, forget his name, on TH-cam and he made really good use of it. Think I’ll hold out for a desktop 2x3. $5-6k gets a decent used non ATC machine. Resharpen my cnc skill on that for a while. It been a while since I’ve done cnc work. I miss it. Cool seeing you use 3D printed templates. Do you use fusion 360 for design?
The edit, the takes, the result! Everything it's on point! What a incredible tutorial to start my first build! Can you please share the plans with me? I have my own design for the headstock and the body shape, but everything else (pickups position, bridge, scale, etc) are the same, so it's important to not screw things in the process lol I would like to share the process with you... I hope this petition doesn't bother you... Greetings from Colombia!
The magnets would have worked fine. The contact points just needed to sit a hair proud of the cavity surface. Could have added some thin felt contact points to the underside of each plate at the magnets and then put a fine bevel every else around the perimeter. Those plates were pretty thick, but you still have to assume they will move slightly with changes in temperature and humidity.
Yup, some days those router tables will wake you right up! 🤣 I'm not a fan of those really big router bits. I prefer to step it down in small increments. Nice build, I'm finishing up my Tele with a Floyd myself. 😎
You are a true craftsman, using the old way of doing thins like planing a body blank with a hand planer, I have a question for you, what brands are your handplaners ? I am looking in to buying a couple of new ones soon.. thank you.
I own Lie Nielsen, Lee Valley, and Wood River. I did not like my Wood River, but the other brands were on backorder at the time. I recommend going for Lie Nielsen if you can. You can always sell it and recover a lot of the cost.
As soon as I saw the book matched burl top I was in it till the end. It's really funny how we as humans are obsessed with how beautiful tree tumors are.
@@DUY1337GUITAR Yep! The tree gets disease, damage or environmental stress in some way and tries to wall the damaged section off from the rest of the tree, resulting in burl.
@@Steve-s4b Not meaning to be picky, but that doesn't fit the definition of a tumour, which is uncontrolled cell growth while avoiding programmed cell death. Granted one of those "deseases" a tree could get that creates burl could be a tumour. Unless the definition is different in trees, in which case, I'd be happy to be proven wrong. Still pretty hardcore though. I'm sure there's a deeper message to be had about being beautiful despite your wounds in there somewhere.
From Amazon. They are 2-56 threaded inserts for plastic. If you get the ones like mine where it's split shaft, you have to hammer them in with the screw inserted, otherwise the inserts will squeeze upon installing
Если кому интересно- изготовление этой гитары стоило ОГРОМНЫХ денег!! Это видно по оборудованию мастерской... Так что- если планируете заказать себе инструмент за тысячу долларов- приглядитесь лучше к Harley Benton.
Dude, awesome work! Better than any Kiesel I've ever seen! Also, what's that sick trem spring plate with the allen wrench adjust? I need to buy one of those ASAP
@@jasonhelms9410 I'm not sure I'm ready to open my building to the public yet, but hopefully one day. It's a painfully long process without big boy tools.
in video lable: Dog Me: checks out. Stunning work, you've come on a long way since your days of buying premade or stealing necks, in both building and editing. I mean, I've been watching since the dragon JEM XD Speaking of the neck, what's the thickness of that thing? just curious.
I plugged the magnets too deep, and I should've stacked two into each hole. Lateral hold was too weak. Since the covers were a bit smaller than the cavity, it wiggled easily.
The hard maple is really grabby with the larger spiral bit, maybe because it was face grain. I tested with a higher speed and it improved, but ultimately decided to use a smaller bit.

Bro, I like the way you show the struggle of building a guitar. We all human. We make mistakes. Keep the great job.

That dark (almost black) finish looked like vinegar and steel wool. Your use of hand tools shows a great dedication to the craft, and I know those are challenging.
Bro, your editing had me rolling! Choir singing on the trem peg removal was hilarious. Beautiful build!
Great build videos! Thank you for not adding over bearing annoying background music while showing us the true life of building a guitar. Mistakes and all!
I don't know where you learned how to make guitars but you are gifted my friend. I could watch your video a 1000 times and still not catch everything
I learn from videos like these. I had to cut 95% of footage from 450 video clips. So much left out!
Amazing build! Love the editing and the fact that you kept some of the mistakes in.
these edits are wonderful. thank you for sharing your love of making lots and lots of dust 💚
That is the only Tele style guitar I'd ever want to own, it's gorgeous!
Wow! I am speechless!
Absolutely stunning! Impressive construction. It is pure art!!!. Congrats!

That's disgustingly dope. Respect to you, man.

Just exquisite design and craftsmanship! Well done!
Beautiful...I wonder why there aren't major brands doin such aggressive style tellies❤
Oooooooo fck, it is simply beautiful! 😲 Amazing build, I wish I have it one time! :) 🥺👏
wow. what a cool build. I love the sound editing during the messups
Master craftsman. Phenomenal workmanship throughout! Rare skills in modern life
Killer work Duy! It's awesome to watch you build these guitars. Keep em coming!
Currently working on a bass with the Nova bridge!
@DUY1337GUITAR siiick! Can't wait to see how it comes out 🤘
might be one of the most beautiful guitars i've ever seen
One of the most beautiful builds I have ever seen.
That top is striking. Great work on both the build and the video.
Thanks for labeling the dog, I was wondering what that was! 😃
Beautiful wood one this one. Very nice job.
Man this is awesome craftsmenship. Those Steel-Planes are sick
What an absolutely beautiful instrument. Excellent work.
Lotta work lotta sweat lotta joy good job look forward to your next one
Next video will be in a month or so
Stunning build. Thanks for sharing. Your finishing work is next level. Makes me want to try staining and spraying! ATM I just do oil finishes.
It's very very beautiful, I love it
I just stumbled across your video, great guitar! I enjoyed watching your building process and video editing as well! The guitar not only looks great but sounds awesome as well!
Absolutely beautiful!!
That finish is great, makes me wanna have a telecaster
I like that you left the mistakes in!

IM AMAZED...... NOTHING MORE TO SAY.
Great work man.
Love it❤
I appreciate👏
Man, that wood... 😍😍
Great build , I would love too own one of your guitar's .
nice work!
Absolutely magnificent
I'd be proud to play that at my next gig!
I think that this guitar makes total sens. Video was super funny too. Kudos
Im very happy with this. Very very nice job.
Ahah! And here is the guitar owner
Beautiful and badass.

soooo beatiful instrument...
This tone was already great enough🤣
Im ngl if i wasnt poor id definetely buy one of these from you. Sick asf man keep it up
I was covering my eyes at 9:27!!!!!
I know the feeling when the trem is tilted!
Superb. Now I want a Ryng guitar.
No angled headstock? I'm reporting this video.
(Jocking, great video (and storytelling!), awesome wood skills, i'm following right now.)
Client didn't want, but I definitely want to do an accented scarf joint sometime
wow..I want one!!!!
dream guitar 😍
Masterpiece 😍

gorgeous build
Nice work! What material did you use for the thin accent line layer of the laminated body? Dyed veneer?
Yes, dyed poplar veneer
Swapping magnets to screws was like "nah, too many sweats". And WHY ARE YOU KILLED LITTLE MAGNET HE DID NOT DESERVED IT
The magnet hurt my feelings
Glad you shared your stress with us
what did you rub on the sander to clean the sandpaper off with? I need that.. Also what brand of planes? Thanks GREAT content!!
It's just called abrasive cleaning stick/eraser
@ I’ll look it up.. thanks bro 😎
Bellissima complimenti 👏👏👏👏
Absolutely stunning!! what about the new screw system in the tremolo cavity? It come with the bridge itself?
The original trem claw came with the tremolo. The new one is the Schaller Sure Claw which I bought separately.

Where are your old videos? Remember watching them countless times!
They're at least 10 yrs old and not up to the quality I want now. Will try to fill up with new videos
@@DUY1337GUITAR Just rewatched them last year! So much nostalgia!
@@westbohan nostalgia is right, time is flying too fast!
@@DUY1337GUITAR It does! Do you still have the guitars you built 10 years ago?
@@westbohan Yep, a couple of them stored somewhere deep in the closet
Amazing! That’s insanely impressive! Do you sell guitars you make?
Yeah, the guitars I made so far were made and sold for specific people
How can I get a quote on one very similar to this one?
Can I get one?

Best Machines and tools what you can buy 😊 good job. Greetings from Germany.
It's about as far from a tele as it's possible to get but it is one fantastic guitar.
ちょーかっこいい！あと動画面白い。
Great build. No gloves with rotary machinery please though!
WOW!
mấy cây a làm giá thường khoảng bao nhiêu hả anh ?
in video lable: Dog
Me: checks out.
Stunning work, you've come on a long way since your days of buying premade or stealing necks, in both building and editing. I mean, I've been watching since the dragon JEM XD
Speaking of the neck, what's the thickness of that thing? just curious.
I made it a modern C, so about 21mm at 1st fret, 22mm at 12th.
What is the function of black paper between the wood?
Just aesthetic. Gives it a sharper look
와~~~~~ 챨랑챨랑 소리 너무 좋다.
Absolutely stunning! Can you build one for me?
damn dude!
What exactly went wrong with the magnet covers?
I plugged the magnets too deep, and I should've stacked two into each hole. Lateral hold was too weak. Since the covers were a bit smaller than the cavity, it wiggled easily.
@@DUY1337GUITAR Damn. Turned out amazing regardless
How much for a guitar like this one?😊
Locking nut and locking tuners? Belt and suspenders. :)
It wasn't my original plan until I saw great prices for locking tuners!
It's a great video, great work! We would like to invite you trying out some featured products!
What is the price for a guitar like this?
Amazing guitar. Congratulations !
8:54 Why don't you use the safety pin of your router table to avoid this ?
I thought about it afterwards, but ultimately decided to use a smaller bit.
Beautiful guitar! Way better than an overpriced Fender.
27:31 can you pleaaase drop a link to that adjustment thing? that is so fucking epic, i need it
That's the Schaller Sure Claw. I see it for $100 from main stores like Guitar Center, but found it for just $60-70 on ebay and Reverb.
thanks man
great guitar btw xD
WHY is this happening at 9:00? That kickback
The hard maple is really grabby with the larger spiral bit, maybe because it was face grain. I tested with a higher speed and it improved, but ultimately decided to use a smaller bit.
@@DUY1337GUITAR High speed and smaller bit, ok. Beautiful guitar, btw
