DIY 2x4 Guitar Build

In today's video, I get to grips with building my very first handmade guitar body from scratch.
I wanted to practice routing guitar neck pockets, so I thought we'd have fun making a 2x4 guitar with a piece of reclaimed scrap wood I found from a building site.
I have a very cool gold Telecaster bridge with roller saddles that I'll be using in the build.
I will be installing a diMarzio DP189 Tone Zone hotrail pickup straight to the output jack, hoping to get some pure tonewood sounds.
Once I build the 2x4 Robster Plankcaster guitar I will give it a good test run.
For the demo I will be using a Behringer UD300 Distortion pedal, through garageband using vox amp simulator. I will also a use bit of delay for the lead guitar tone.
All the electric guitars you will hear in the demo will be this very 2x4 Guitar I built.
I really hope you enjoy this cool fun build, let me know what you think to the guitar build in the comments.

You could route some sort of channel on the side and make changeable wings for it in all sorts of shapes. It could go from a tele to a strat to a jm to anything in between or any combination.

A great follow up to Jim Lill’s video about whether tone wood is a myth lol I love this! It seriously proves everything wrong about the snobbery, no one would be able to identify this as a plank they’d think it’s a Les Paul Standard probably haha

@theguitarmanifesto Год назад
Glad you liked the video 🎸🤘 not familiar with Jim dude. Unfortunately most people listen with their eyes. Once I tweak the electrics and add some CTS pots and a orange drop cap you should be able to hear a fuller sound. My inspiration for the plank was a 2x4 la Baye I owned many years ago, guess they're worth a pretty penny now 💰💰

@@theguitarmanifesto ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-n02tImce3AE.html It reminded me of your plankcaster, demonstrating the sound really does come from the strings, pickups, and the electronics. A lot of people play cigar box guitars, no one mentions tonewood then lol

I built my first guitar body with just a jigsaw, a very similar sized router, hand drill and a select few hand tools. Based on what you did here you could do that no probs! (It takes a while with that size router though let me tell you😅)

Crazy when you think how much goes into building a guitar. Makes we wonder why some brands build shitty guitars. Squire is a good example. Not exactly cheap and often.. ( not always but often..) The finish. The neck. The bridge ain't right. Think say if you were a kid..1st guirar you ever brought which went out of tune everytime you used the whammy. Or sharp frets and a rough knock. Noisy pickups and flat intonation. You would give up after frustration I think. Everyone should build quality guitars for sure!!.😁

They have the equipment, a lot of it is down to price and how much time is spent on the QC side. Oh I totally agree, a good setup will solve a lot of the QC problems.
