Now I know what woodwork teachers do at night when the school is closed, lol. I would love to have all that industrial machinery. AND THE SKILL TO DO THAT!!!!! Amazing!!!!!!!!!!!!
:D it is because I built this one while I was in school, and the talking in the backround was usually really random, sometimes even offencive if taken out of context. That’s why I left it out and also I tought speed up talking sounded fun.
I think you should not passively mix piezo and magnetic pickups because of the impedance differences. So I would either add an active buffer/mixer circuit or give the Piezo it's own output. When I do this, I route the piezo to the right channel of a stereo jack. Like that if you have a mono jack plugged in you'll have the mag pickup. If you plug a stereo jack you can route each pickup through it's own processing chain / amp
Theoretical you are right, but in my guitar it works good. As far as i can see, the potentiometers should be wired the other way round, so the amp always sees the same resistance and the signal goes to the middle. I would also try a high resistance for the poti at the piezo (1M)
Mr. Jukka, Despite the difficulties you faced making the guitar, it is truly a masterpiece. I'm also impressed with your ability to use the tools you have. I think you are a master of your work! Excellent!
Ok, more to you than meets the eye. Impressive. You’ve either had some training or are very keen at taking an idea and making it happen. You may not learn anything new from the Gibson acoustic videos I mentioned earlier. Very glad you made these video, even happier that I found your work. Very cool. Great job mister. On seco nd thought, please find those Gibson videos. The way they do the neck alone is worth the time you spend watching them.
Holy smokes, you’ve got an entire industrial complex to use. OMG, that is incredible. And a vacuum press? Could be hydraulic or pneumatic but very cool. Not sure if this firm makes furniture or what. I thought you were just part of a guitar company and learning. Now I’m thinking these are your ideas and a bunch of very cool tools at your disposal. Very cool. Enjoying this video and can’t wait to see the final product. Good job.
Impressive that you all build everything right there including your pickups. If you have time, there is an 8 video series from Gibson Acoustic in Montana where Ren Ferguson and his team bills acoustic guitars. Different style of guitar and they use a lot of CNC machines but there is some cool clamping ideas they use. Like using fire hose to make pressure bladder clamps. You may not get a lot of useful ideas for electric guitars but it’s still fun to watch anyway. The cool thing here is you’re learning each day and becoming a luthier. All I can do is watch and hope that when my job ends overseas that I can go back and start with hands on building. Watching tons of videos, just hope I can remember technics from all of them including yours. Thank you sir.
Was hoping for a left hand guitar video but hey it’s cool seeing you build a right hand guitar and flipping it. You’re far ahead of me as I’ve never built one… yet. Good job.
Damn phones. Kit made in China? Hopefully not but what isn’t made there these days. Which is why the only choice I’ve seen so far is cut everything yourself. Hope these are made in the USA or any place but China. It’s a geopolitical thing and I’m tired of sending them money so they can build their military. Ok, on with the show. Thanks for this. Finland, man I hope they make this kit there and not just a reseller. Sent them an email. Thanks. OK so I watched to the end and seeing that you built this in Finland is very cool and gives me hope that the body was also built in Finland. I won’t go this way if body made in China. Glad you posted the mistakes as well. Top to wavy, needs more prep time to get smooth. So did you take some old Seymour Duncan pickups and rewind them? Novel approach. Hard for sounds to come through RU-vid. Piezo pickups would be good for the Boss or Roland sound effects and no need for add on kit but it means using the same jack. Not sure how that’ll work with the other devices but hey it could be ok. Great video to learn from. Thank you
Too expensive for me. I can make one for a lot less money. It is a nice kit as far as the body goes. But the kit does not come with the fret board and neck woods. Plus, the cost of shipping to the USA is expensive as well. Good video, just not going to spend the kind of money they want. I made my version of an ES335 from scratch. Sold it last week. Was thinking of making another one. Thought a kit would save me some time. But I won't be buying this kit.
What did I see? You had issues, and over came as required, then you wax potted the Pick Ups, no chance Harley Benton (feedback pickups) will hire you. Nice one.
Superb video!! a pleasure to watch, I've been a master cabinetmaker for almost 30 years, this was my first guitar build video, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, thank you for sharing.....(subscribed) Richard Wright York, England.
The Godin company was first to create an electric nylon strings guitar with the Multiac. Now many companies have copied their design but the Multiac has also a pick up that allows you to play in a Roland Synthesizer unit which set them apart.
Kiitos👏 en muuten tainnut mainita sitä videossa, mutta kyljet ja kaula oli talven yli lumen alla ollutta (homehtunutta) tervaleppää (eli spalted alder), kansi ja pohja oli kuusta.
Buenas Rodri. Totalmente de acuerdo....por ese precio comprate la Gibson... Yo como ta tuve varias Les Paul y siempre me resultaron incómodas y PESADAS de narices, me apaño con las HB tuneadas que me hacen el apaño perfectamente y las puedo "maltratar" sin miedo 😊
There is no meaning of kit, if neck , fret board etc are missing and we have to split sides on bending machine, none of home builder has these machines at home, you have to improvise your kit , so a home builder can build this beauty at home with out having expensive machine.
