I'd love to do my own build, however the amount of technique and general know how, mistakes to avoid, critical areas and a list of other things makes me hesitant trying to build my own.

Just go for it. You will do mistakes and you’ll also correct them. You’re only shaping wood 😉.

I'm still gathering a few necessary tools in my Wood Shop. I have an idea to build a ported body out of Waterfall Bubinga with a Maple and Purple Heat neck with a Ebony fretboard. I might even try some inlay work on the fretboard. For now it's a future project that's going to require some thought and more research and nice sharp tools.😉

Hello, how are you? What did you use to paint the guitar? And after what kind of oil did it pass? I hope you see this comment after 3 years of video! My compliments on the incredible work

Hi, I used waterbased black stain by CLOU and finished it with Crimson Guitars - Guitar Finishing Oil. Thank you!

Putting a strip of tape down along the side of the fretboard before taping off the fretboard between frets to make it easier to remove all the tape is genius.
@ArkesGuitars
@ArkesGuitars 7 месяцев назад
Thank you! Yeah, you need that tape anyway. So why not putting it on first. You’re quite amazing yourself!
