My entry last year to the Great Guitar Build Off was a fun project but this year I wanted to challenge myself and build something more serious. It certainly was a challenge especially has it had to be made from recycled materials, anyway I thoroughly enjoyed making it hopefully you enjoyed the video.

As a luthier/guitar repair person I am amazed at your approach. There were a few mistakes, but considering this is your second guitar ever, and you tackled an archtop jazz guitar, which is by far the hardest to build, this is amazing. I know you didn't have time for it, but I'm sad to see the finish wasn't level sanded and polished. If you auction it off, try to get a repair shop to do a setup on it, as it greatly improves playability and I could see that the intonation on the tunomatic bridge wasn't set, so the notes won't ring cleanly. I hope this doesn't come through as a negative comment, as that wasn't my intention, just trying to give some advice. This project was truly amazing. ❤

@@frikkied2638 Because there are a few mistakes. People who go out and do things often learn by getting knowledge from people who have done it already. I want honest feedback on my efforts, not empty praise for things that could be improved. If you are experienced and knowledgeable in a field, it is not helpful to do that to a fellow adult trying to develop a skill: don't simply placate with banal praise. However, you're certainly right when it comes to the opposite: empty cruelty aimed at nitpicking or tearing down somebody is even more destructive. This comment, however, does not seem like that to me. It was constructive, supportive, and listed specific practical advice and details from their experience.

@@PaskMakes Thank you for the video! You are a wonderful master! The guitar looks very beautiful. But it seems to me that the frets should have been installed in fretboard first and then the binding. Many musicians complain that over time, with changes in temperature and humidity, the frets will protrude and injure the hand.

As the owner of two Hollowbody Archtop Guitars... I sat "glued" (pun) to your presentation ! Every moment of design build and the expertise of your skills with your tools and knowledge enthralled me... You have given to me a deeper appreciation of ALL my guitars, not least the two that are similar to the guitar you have just created... I shall enjoy playing them more and am inspired to 'play', with focus and patience, at least as 'good' as your creation... Also I 'noted' some of the other excellent comments of your followers (luthiers) and it is simply 'grand' that the world has such talented folk... Thanks 🤠 ! As Louis Armstrong said... "What a Wonderful World" !

@danfromnorth52 6 месяцев назад

As usual Neil you never cease to amaze. For a guy who’s only built another previous guitar, you took on a very difficult design and mastered it. You never cut corners. Well done. Isn’t it great when mates can help each other too! Thanks for another great video. Hope you have a very well deserved rest.

@jaromir_kovar 6 месяцев назад

Neil, I am speechless. The guitar is absolutely mind blowing and beautiful. My eyes misted a bit. You are such an amazing master craftsman and so inspirational. There will be guitar makers, making guitars their whole life, which would have a better technique. Same for life-long cabinet makers, metal workers, machinists and everything else, but you are one of a kind, Neil. You go into each field and just do it and produce things of beauty. And even if you never make a video to be about you, your humanity shines through. I am so grateful to RU-vid that we are able to watch master craftsmen's work. In past, that would be impossible, unless you had a lot of money, traveled far and were very lucky. And here I can look at your channel and just watch one jewel after another and be amazed. Thank you so much!

@briturner11 6 месяцев назад

that dowel and drill press trick is genius. Worth watching the video just for that 10 second clip.

@patrickstoddard6610 2 месяца назад

I don't understand how this method works. If you're wanting the same material thickness over the entire face of the guitar, wouldn't the drill press dpeth need to change and be less as you go from the middle to the outside edge? Maybe he changes the depth as he goes along, he just doesn't mention it.

@bacicinvatteneaca 19 дней назад

The outside is carved first, moving the body over the dowel allows you to always measure the distance to the already carved outside rather than its original overall thickness

I’m not opposed to any of those other things, and I watch other makers that use them, and I like those too. But I just love watching you do so much work by hand, often with tools, you’ve made yourself.
