Thanks Dan. I'm very happy that you like it. My stats dropped significantly recently. But I'm working on new content an I hope people will find it valuable. Maybe one day we could make a colab. I really liked the video you made with Corey. It would be awesome to hear you imitate my slavic accent 😆
It's quite astonishing to see such a remarkable guitar come into existence. Well done! It did surprise me that you glued the neck since I thought they were typically screwed in. Of course, I'm not an expert.
Thanks Jozsef! There are three main ways to attach the neck to the body. Bolt on, set neck (glued), and neck trough ( neck blank goes all the way trough the body). I try to avoid bolt on system if possible. In my opinion set neck does a better job in transferring vibrations from neck to body. If executed properly it can increase sustain and ad some character from neck wood to tone of the guitar.
That Laguna is a beast! I can't wait to add some tools like that to my workshop! I do alot of woodworking, but with only the bare minimals! Its nice though, because each new tool I get, I'm able to create something that I wasn't able to before!! Thanks so much for your uploads Brother, you do a wonderful and amazing job each time!! Peace and God bless!!!
That's true man. This saw took my building to the next level. I had a cheap one before and I'm amazed how good quality tools can change your work. Thank you very much!
Absolutely beautiful work and guitar. Woodworking is the one thing I have patience for and it's my passion. I have nowhere near the talent you do though. Excellent craftsmanship is an understatement when it comes to your work.
Thanks man. I am making working on another project as we speak. And I intend to keep posting. It just takes quite some time to build a guitar, film everything and edit the footage. It is impossible for me to post more frequently.
Thanks Scott! That's why I started to make this videos. I'm happy if people gets something out of it. And hearing this from someone who clearly knows the craft is pretty amazing. 🤘
Thanks John. You are right. I just started to learn using cnc. It opend up many new possibilities. I will still be working with hands a lot but cnc is a nice tool to have for some parts.
😱👍👍👍👍💪💪💪 Gobsmacked! Stunning guitar! That top is beautiful. And that fretboard is absolutely amazing! I really like the black (carbon?) between the different layers. Gives great accents. I looooove this guitar mate. Well done!
Thanks. I enjoy working with hands and I'm still learning to use my cnc. And also I think it's more beneficial for the viewers to show how its done with more basic tools.
Hi! Beautiful guitar. What did you use to fill in the voids of the poplar burl at 2:20? Is that just dark dust and wood glue? or another product? Thanks :)
Thanks man. I really do recommend it. I was struggling with a cheap one for to long. It is unbelievably better. Check out IGM tools. They have free shipping. In Slovenia it's cheaper from them than from a local supplier.
I too dreamed of having a proper bandsaw and last year got myself the same laguna but in the 14" model. It is an incredible machine, I love it! Great video
Mate this is a truly magnificent instrument and I am inspired by your guitar building and wish I had the talent you have, hopefully one day I’ll get there. Keep up the awesome work 🤘🤘
Great video to watch. Something that I have been wanting to do for quite soe time now. My main concern is building the neck. What CNC machien did you use for this? I looked in your notes but didn;t see a reference. i'm sure a few of us would be interesed in this. Thanks again for posting this. Beautiful work!
You never disappoint another exceptional build your incredible I would love to play one of those guitars I'm sure they play exceptionally well considering they're built by a master
@@MagicAtticGuitars I would love to find out how I can obtain one of those guitars I'm living in Providence Rhode Island right now hopefully we can collaborate and find out how I can buy one I have a large bank account and buying a guitar would be money well-spent
Another beautiful guitar! I see you are using what looks like a DIY CNC router for the fretboard. Do you plan to use it for bodies in the future? I have built a router which I plan to use to help me build a guitar this year.
Thanks Ian. It takes me about a month to build a guitar. The amount of hours mostly depends on how much detail is in the design. Usually it's at least 100 hours or more.
The way you build its almost the same way I do it too.. 😆 is it normal? The only difference is that I do the fret slots by hand and the radius as well, but pretty much everything else is similar… like the fretwork, I like to do it before carving the neck, 😁👍
If we both do it this way than is probably normal 😁 I also usually do the fret slots and radius bay hand. In this case I wanted to make fanned frets with blind ends. So I had ti use cnc ta achieve this. Thanks for your comment.
You're the gold standard really dude. feels superfluous to say, but awesome guitar, awesome vid... but tell me... how many times did you actually change the bandsaw blade during this vid? 😁
Thanks man. This is really nice to hear. I changed the blade 4 times just for the build. From resaw king to 6mm blade and back. But then there are jigs and templates made behind the scenes. And I have another blade for rough cutting big chunks of wood to prepare blanks. Even if I only had to change it one time and it took hours I wouldn't do it. 🙂
Damn Dude, that is one beautiful creation, from the amazing wood, to the exquisite detailed and beautiful carving of the body and the simple finish to show off all that beautiful wood. Curious what the fret board is made from, is that what they call Zebra wood?
Loving the thin black line between layers 👏👍
Beautiful work as always man! Excellent cinematography as well. You need more subs
Thanks Dan. I'm very happy that you like it.

Your craftmanship is astounding. Your taste and care for details makes the difference between a handmade guitar and a piece of art.
This is very nice to hear. Thanks man.
Zaista predivno. Primecujem poboljsanja u dizajnu, a zvuk je do sada najbolji. Cettitam Majstore !
Hvala!
Beautiful! There's nothing better than tall band saw and a good deep blade.
Thanks! Bandsaw is one of the essential tools for me. And if it works as it should, that's heaven :)
Dude. I'm only at 04:38, yet I'm already in awe!
That's nice to hear man.

I always study a lot with your videos.Thank you.
I'm happy to hear that. Thanks!
Really nice work here. The zebra wood ties the poplar and walnut together nicely, and the scarf joint layer is a nice touch. Thanks for sharing!
Thank you very much Seth!
A new and unique masterpiece. Endless spreading of creativity with better and better tools.
Thanks 🙂
Beautiful guitar. I love the matching knobs.
Thanks John.
I enjoyed the EXTREME SANDING of 4:50 :) Well I enjoyed all of it. Another beauty of a guitar and another great video!
Thanks Chris!
I'm delighted by the passion you put in your wood work ... go ahead! You're great! Even the quality of the video resolution is the finest.
Thank you Carlo!
Great build! That's a slick-rig! Wish I had one.
Thanks man. Hopefully you will one day:)
Beautiful....no words to express this talent..God bless you
Thanks man!
Love the scarf joint.
Thanks man.
Amazing as usual. Love how you made the control knobs to match.
Thanks. The poplar top was missing some figure in the knob area so I thought I could add some wit the knobs:)
iv never seen some one make a fret board like that i love it
Thanks
Outstanding work! You should be very proud. Thank you for sharing
Thank you!

I picked up so many useful tips in this build. Awesome!
I'm happy to hear that. It's the purpose of making this videos.
Your sense of detail is extraordinary! And you have true hand eye, skills. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks Andrew!
Absolutely beautiful work and guitar. Woodworking is the one thing I have patience for and it's my passion. I have nowhere near the talent you do though. Excellent craftsmanship is an understatement when it comes to your work.
Bro, PLEASE MAKE MORE AMAZING VIDEOS!! This is so cool!!
Thanks man. I am making working on another project as we speak. And I intend to keep posting. It just takes quite some time to build a guitar, film everything and edit the footage. It is impossible for me to post more frequently.
A work of art!!!!🎸🎸🎸🎸
Thanks!
Awesome build man. There were a couple of take aways and aha moments for me in there. Some smart work brother.
Thanks Scott! That's why I started to make this videos. I'm happy if people gets something out of it. And hearing this from someone who clearly knows the craft is pretty amazing. 🤘
Awesome! Very good job
Thanks man.
Killer build dude…
Thanks Radovan!
Great Video!
Thanks!
BEAUTIFUL guitar. Love the bevels.
Thanks man!
Great video as always my friend. And I agree on the saw! I’ve had the exact one for two years, and it is perfect for what we do. Cheers!
Thanks man. Yeah this saw is a game changer for me.
Really beautiful work and very nice video.
Thanks man!
Wow Nice keep it up thanks for showing
Thanks man
I asked about a wood CNC machine....then your video goes to a wood CNC for the neck. Way ahead of me......lololol. Love the build.
Thanks John. You are right. I just started to learn using cnc. It opend up many new possibilities. I will still be working with hands a lot but cnc is a nice tool to have for some parts.
A very beautiful piece of craftsmanship.
Thanks Markus.
Nice Video 👍
Thanks man!
Wow that is a masterpiece both guitar and a video itself. Thank you very much Izak. Pavel from #IGMtools
Thanks Pavel! And the whole IGM crew. You guys are awesome!
beautiful!
Thanks Greg!
Beautiful work on the design and the craftsmanship!
Thank you very much!
I want that GUITAR! NOW!
Thats nice to hear. You can message me on my website. Customguitars.eu
Great metal tone🤘🤘
Thanks man. I'm glad you like it 🤘
Absolutely beautiful craftsmanship. What material did you add at 1:26 ? Was it carbon fibre?
Thanks Andrew. It is a veneer.
that axe is sick! congrats on the new saw aswell! 16" resaw capacity thats badass!
Thanks man! It is badass. It opens up so much possibilities.
@@MagicAtticGuitars I bet! Im still curious how you managed to get it into the magic attic tho! Magic I suppose?
Awesome guitar my friend, that saw cuts great too.
Far out it’s almost unfair how talented you are
Thanks mate! Yes it really is a beast.
I don't know about talent... I just put a lot of time in it and try to enjoy the process:)
良い作りですね❗
素晴らしい🎵
オイル仕上げが良いですね🎵
ピアノも今のように塗装されたのは日本の気候が湿度が高いために始まりました。
板の張り合わせにスペーサーを入れていますが何故ですか?
Wow! This is amazing 👏. Very well done ✔ . Have a great evening. Mark Bensette Aux Bois 🇨🇦.
Thank you very much 😊
Another beauty. Great work 👍
Thanks man 🤘
Amazing!
Thanks.
Semplicemente meravigliosa! Tantissimi complimenti!
beautiful
Thanks
😱👍👍👍👍💪💪💪
Gobsmacked! Stunning guitar! That top is beautiful.
And that fretboard is absolutely amazing!
I really like the black (carbon?) between the different layers. Gives great accents.
I looooove this guitar mate. Well done!
Thanks man. It's a veneer between the pieces.
Awesome work. Can I ask why you use router templates and hand cutting rather than your cnc?
Thanks. I enjoy working with hands and I'm still learning to use my cnc. And also I think it's more beneficial for the viewers to show how its done with more basic tools.
Awesome guitar, what kind of tuners are those?
Thanks man. This are schaller top locking tuners.
Hi! Beautiful guitar. What did you use to fill in the voids of the poplar burl at 2:20? Is that just dark dust and wood glue? or another product? Thanks :)
Thanks man. Yes it was wood dust and titebond glue.
An absolute beauty as always. I definitely need one of those bandsaws, I’m tired of fighting with mine.
Thanks man. I really do recommend it. I was struggling with a cheap one for to long. It is unbelievably better. Check out IGM tools. They have free shipping. In Slovenia it's cheaper from them than from a local supplier.
Beautiful work. This may sound stupid but what is the black layer you put in between the wood?
Following
Looks like walnut veneer
Or wenge
Thanks Jay. It's a poplar veneer, dyed black.
This is really inspires me, I hope one day I could design and build my guitar by myself. Great work!
I'm happy to hear that. I believe you can do it! Thanks.
I too dreamed of having a proper bandsaw and last year got myself the same laguna but in the 14" model. It is an incredible machine, I love it! Great video
It really is a great machine. Thanks.
Beautiful job! 🏆
Thanks Peter!
Beautiful guitar!!! What pickups did you use?
Thanks. Lace sensors - drop&gain
Mate this is a truly magnificent instrument and I am inspired by your guitar building and wish I had the talent you have, hopefully one day I’ll get there.
Keep up the awesome work 🤘🤘
Thanks man. I'm sure you can progress very quickly if you dedicate to it. I also have a lot to learn and master.
Beautiful top
Thanks
Great video to watch. Something that I have been wanting to do for quite soe time now.
My main concern is building the neck. What CNC machien did you use for this? I looked in your notes but didn;t see a reference. i'm sure a few of us would be interesed in this.
Thanks again for posting this. Beautiful work!
Thanks man. My cnc is from a local builder here in Slovenia. The company is called Voz cnc.
You never disappoint another exceptional build your incredible I would love to play one of those guitars I'm sure they play exceptionally well considering they're built by a master
Thanks Jim. I do my best to build them as comfortable as possible. I hope one day I can build one for you.

@@jimcoppa6946 send ma a message on my website (magicatticguitars.com). There is no reason why I couldn't build a guitar for you.
@@jimcoppa6946 hi Jim. I didn't get your message. Did you have trouble finding my website?
Another beautiful guitar! I see you are using what looks like a DIY CNC router for the fretboard. Do you plan to use it for bodies in the future? I have built a router which I plan to use to help me build a guitar this year.
Thanks. I'm very new to the cnc world. I have a lot to learn. But yes I will try to make some of the building stages easier, faster and more precise.
Beautiful. And that guitar’s pretty good too! 😂
😆 Thanks Chris!
Another beautiful guitar, I love the woods you use. How many hours does it take to make something like this?
Thanks Ian. It takes me about a month to build a guitar. The amount of hours mostly depends on how much detail is in the design. Usually it's at least 100 hours or more.
Not your first build, I can bet. Exquisite build!
True:) thanks!
Wow what an awesome build man! Love your Videos so much :) Greetings my friend ;)
Thank you Nils! It's always nice to hear such good things from a fellow craftsmen:)

nice work, you forgot to slant the pickups tho :) or maybe you were looking for this kind of tone which is good too
Thanks. I didn't forget:) some people slant them on a normal scale to get this tone effect. I quite like the sound.
Super!!!
Thanks!
Superb
Thank you!
Hey 😊 What's the black paper stuff you use dude?
It's a veneer.
What is the thin black material used to separate the body layers?
It's just a veneer.
What scarf angle you used? My scarf shim strip falls under the 3rd fret.
It's a 9 degree angle. Usually I'm making it 10° but I wanted to try smaller angle. 9° is still OK.
You're the gold standard really dude. feels superfluous to say, but awesome guitar, awesome vid... but tell me... how many times did you actually change the bandsaw blade during this vid? 😁
Thanks man. This is really nice to hear.
I changed the blade 4 times just for the build. From resaw king to 6mm blade and back. But then there are jigs and templates made behind the scenes. And I have another blade for rough cutting big chunks of wood to prepare blanks. Even if I only had to change it one time and it took hours I wouldn't do it. 🙂
My neck blank is 2cm thick, and my body blank is 3cm thick. Can i build a neck set guitar?
Yes:)
Thank You:)
No problem:)
What is that black sheet called that you used for the pin stripe please?
It's just a black veneer.
Damn Dude, that is one beautiful creation, from the amazing wood, to the exquisite detailed and beautiful carving of the body and the simple finish to show off all that beautiful wood. Curious what the fret board is made from, is that what they call Zebra wood?
Thank you Lynx. Yes the fretboard is zebra wood or also called Zebrano.
what is the material or thin black line between layers? thank you.
What is the exact blade that you used for this Project?
That bandsaw looks really good. But it's still nowhere near as good looking as the guitar you built. Beautiful as usual!
Thanks man🤘
Looks like a tortilla. I love it.
Haha nice one. Thanks 🙂
sorry, what kind of bridge is that?
No need to apologise :) It is ABM single saddle bridge.
How to buy your guitar?
You can order or contact me on my website.
What is that paper looking stuff you put between your glue ups?
It's a veneer.
Sería un vídeo perfecto sin esa música de fondo.....
🙂
Паш, акцент ужасный, поработай над произношением😉
Not a fan of pickup rings on a guitar. Awesome build nonetheless!
Thanks man 🤘
What's the black material you're layering between the wood?
It's a veneer.
