A Custom Order from IYV that is only $91? How is this possible?  

There's no reason to pay Fender or Gibson prices anymore.

No they're not in trouble . People that can afford and are actually buying them wont start buying cheaper quality guitars

They're not in trouble, owning multiple IYV customs myself, i can safely say American manufacturers can rest easy.

​@@capaya8139do you like your IYV guitars tho? Do they play well? Feel good?

@@capaya8139 you're saying theyre garbo?

Yes of course!

You bet!

@@thebaldshredder I was talking about it, but your channel just the other day. All of the cool guitars that he build. And you're right, We don't Gibson And Fender anymore. There are tons of companies now that make great doors. You get more features on them. And pay sometimes a third of the price.

Please tell Me how!!

Thanks!

For sure!

Not sure about pickups. You could ask them.

If you look at a reverse Ibanez neck you'll see that the tip is opposite. Very similar looking.

How about Brain? 😄

@@thebaldshredder Or Cabby? You can paint the next guitar like a Checker cab.

Actually my 2 recent Musikraft necks are like that so I'd probably love it!

🤘

😁

I didn't ask them for SS.

@@thebaldshredder Perhaps i shall ask Mr. Do then...

@@thebaldshredder I just emailed him. Perhaps you can get us all a group discount? 😃

Just reporting that I got an email reply from Mr. Do - "We can make stainless steel fret with round fret ends. We need your specs to quote the price." So good news!

Generic hotrails style.

@@thebaldshredder had a nice "fatter" sound...it got me haha!!

Hey Richard - HUGE Thank You for the info about IYV guitars and their custom services, I got in contact with Mr. Do, explained what features I wanted with all the detailed measurements, woods used, design style, etc... Ended up ordering a custom neck and body from IYV. Will build my dream custom 1980s Hair Metal Shred machine once I get them! Thank You again for all your help & pointing me in the right direction. You ROCK.

Depends on how cold it is where you are. 24 hours perhaps?

Bridge: Donlis, Middle: cheap generic, Neck: Musiclily

Yes email

IYV makes great stuff and these 3 necks that I got are pretty much ready to go. I just had to put the tuners on and drill the four holes for the bolts. Easy stuff.

@@thebaldshredder Thank you. I have never built guitars, so I couldn't answer those questions. I have seen that you are very familiar with doing what is necessary, from replacing the nut, to finishing the neck, to adjusting the bridge settings after turning it around.

@@marcd1981 all of that stuff seems really hard at first if you've never done it. The only thing you can do is to just start doing it. Get a super cheap guitar and start messing with it. That's what I did.

@@thebaldshredder I probably will eventually. I just started with Cigar Box Guitars, and there are many build videos, and even a course offering, for them. Thanks again, I'm enjoying your channel.

IYV

😄

Awesome. Thanks dude. If for some reason you don't get a reply from them, let me know. Sometimes the emails don't get through.

@@thebaldshredder email communications are up! Love the positive energy of your channel. **Tigers are better than dragons**

No, you just have to email him all your specs.

I'm sure they can.

@@thebaldshredder that's what I'm looking for...one of my bucket list guitars

@@unk-tu-amunthelastpharaoh553 send them an email with a few pictures

@@thebaldshredder I'll have to get those things together pretty soon...Like yourself I build and modify guitars ..I would to get the router you use to carve out those designs..

No I never sent frets to IYV. That was a seller on AliExpress. IYV actually has jumbo frets.

@@thebaldshredder ah! That’s right. Sorry about that.

You can customize every aspect of it, headstock shape included.

Actually it's more about the options. Musikraft and Warmoth offer a lot more options as far as different woods, pre-intalled nuts, finishes, fret sizes, etc. Although this does have extra jumbo frets, they're not quite as big as the 6100 size I can get from those other places. Very close, but not exactly the same. But make no mistake. These are fantastic necks at a fraction of the cost.

I am going for it...tell Metal Dude, I'm doin' the Dew!!!

Mr. Do is building me a replica of Vivian Campbells Whitesnake guitar for...prepare yourself so you do not have a heart attack...an Exact Rand Replica for ....$300 My Jaw is still dropping. I cannot believe the cost of such an instrument. What an Awesome company to deal with. When I get it, I will do a complete review of it.

Yes... I mean no.

Email them and ask

yes

So I guess you didn't watch the whole video

No but you can ask them.

@@thebaldshredder Wanted to know about the quality of their scalloping. I've seen it done pretty badly.

@@thebaldshredder FYI Turns out they will do scalloping.

These are 100% custom necks which means I can specify every aspect like wood, fret size, profile and thin vs thick, nut width, not to mention any headstock shape I want. You buy a cheap guitar and you get the neck that comes on it. That's not a custom neck made to your specs. That's the reason.

@@thebaldshredder thanks, yeah I do know the difference, just want to throw it out there as sometimes you just want to work on one ax at a time and if just starting out there is alot to be said for kits and good cheaper ax's as opposed to flat out building one from paper to finish, I guess if you are starting out I would say go look at your buddy and a favorite channel of mine Scarred guitar, he turned me on to you, different channels but same goals I personally think. I do really thank you for taking the time to explain it as I don't think anyone would really listen to a no body like me, but you have a great channel and explain things well, so again I thank you it seemed important to get the difference between modding and custom explained as they are similar but worlds apart. Also I just respect your channel for my own reasons. So again thank you for your time and understanding and knowing. There's more to you than what you're channel shows but you still come across as down to earth, and deserve to have more eyes on your channel. So thank you 😊

Only tried their pickups. The bridge pup in this guitar is also Donlis.

@@thebaldshredder --- The DH11 RAIL pickup - which one ? - - DH11 Silver-Nickel Base Plate (2 $ more expensive) or the standard (more brass color Base Plate) ?? I am curious whcih one you chose... I LOOVE the sound you got out of this 🙂

Don't remember the model number. It's been well over a year. I can tell you that it was an Alnico V. I'm sure I was looking for a high output pickup.

😆

Sometimes the emails don't get through for whatever reason. Send me an email and I will forward your info to Mr. Do. Then he'll email you.

@@thebaldshredder I have mailed to you , Thanks for trying to help

This guitar is not for sale.

@@thebaldshredder well, there's that.
