I don’t play guitar, but I do appreciate the craftsmanship that put into this nice build. I always wanted to play guitar but my brain and fingers don’t compute, so I have to watch and enjoy other people play. I really hope that you have an apprentice so the skills that you have can be passed to the next person. We don’t want these skills lost.
Nice build! I especially like the mahogany neck and rosewood fretboard on a Strat style guitar. The painted headstock is also a nice touch. I love the blue top with the dark back and sides and the top binding. That looks very cool. I also think the Tex-Mex pickups were a nice choice. Some people don't realize how good those pickups can sound (they might overlook them, because they're not super expensive or boutique pickups). I used Tex-Mex Tele pickups on a Telecaster I built, just because they sounded so good. You built an awesome guitar. It's truly something to be proud of.
bonjour une très jolie guitare et de belle prise de vue et un beau travail merci pour tout 👍🙋🏻♂️🎸je suppose que c’est une guitare hors de prix merci 🙏
This is like my 3/4th times watching this video. I've watched many different kind of videos making custom guitar but this is the most (as for me) satisfying build ever. And i really love and enjoy how he's doing here.and I'm waiting for your next project building.❤❤❤ From India.
@@greensguitars I probably would not be able to afford your output but I love the craftpersonship (is that a word) and attention to detail. I look forward to your other work.
Strat: the most beautiful and best sounding el. guitar ever designed! With it's native floating bridge & whammy it is a GORGEOUS instrument; with a bigsby, it is UNREAL.
Lovely build and great craftsmanship, I look forward to seeing more! Interested as to why you went for a Bigsby when a normal strat trem would be... better haha
Strat trem better? Maybe if you like double stops going flat when bending. Bigsby is much simpler with less routing. The longer string length affects the tension as well. Arguably, there is more mass with a bigsby as well. There are definite differences between a bigsby and traditional 6 point Fender style vibrato bridge. Whatever floats your boat.
Cheers! I thought it would be healthy to leave that mistake in the video to show that no one is perfect and that mistakes do happen. Thanks for watching!
wow it appeared again in my recommendations, srsly watching this makes me want to learn how to play a guitar though I want it to be the same color as this, since my favorite color is blue.
Very Cool Build ,,A few things I would have done differently but I did enjoyed Your Video and the fact you didnt play Heavy Metal at the end and Played something Classy was Awesome ! Good Build !
According to what I've read the compound radius of the fret board is supposed to be 7.25″ radius (184.15mm). You did a good job making that jig to create the radius. 👍
Outstanding work. Your skill and attention to detail is encouraging to see. Great taste too… Love, The Bigsby. No, I mean…my name isn’t Bigsby. I’m trying to say that I love the Bigsby but it came out wrong. 🍻
Good job, couple things… I think you should’ve wet sand and buffed the paint job, put locking tuners and used a real bigsby, made by bigsby not the licensed one. If someone is Going to pay premium price because it’s hand made then everything should be premium but that’s just me.
This is the second video of yours that I've seen and Brother let me say - Your work is amazing! I love the passion you put into this and it's such a joy to see the outcome. Please keep going.... And do let me know if you can build and ship to the US
Thanks for the whole technological process of making an electric guitar, I really liked it and kind of serves as a good relaxation, in places it gave me goosebumps like in ASMR, and even knowing how to play - double ecstasy. ❤ Without electric cutting and grinding tools, the manufacturing process would take longer.. 😤 A 3D printer will do it almost instantly 😂
Love that color! Attention to detail in the worksmanship. Would love to see a build like the Rickenbacher (Tom Petty) or BB King style hollow body electric in the same color. Cheers. (I realize it is a completely different process...).
I built a mahogany Telecaster back around 1971, with a Fender Stratocaster neck (hand routed the neck pocket and all the other stuff), Grover tuners (the screw lips were all in the wrong place and I had to grind them off! I told Grover they needed to move the lip 1/4 around the body of their in-line tuners, and they did!); two SG Standard humbuckings (the proper name for them!), and standard Telecaster bridge PUP. Had the old style Telecaster wiring and a Gibson selector switch to turn on and off, the middle pickup. This boat anchor was and still is a beast.
Okay, So you’re building your partscasters the real way!! Not like I build em’ (assemble pre-carved and fully finished bodies/necks with electronics and hardware..) hehee! 😉
