Dude! I had no idea LMI glue had a black light additive. Thanks for that nugget.

“Let me get my ears on.” I love that you practice safe woodworking. 😊😊 “This jig is the jam.”. I am a neck joint fearing man and this video gave me a new tool! And, I always learn something new each video.

Stoked to see this series back!

@larrycoon3794 Год назад

Thanks Chris! I bought the O'Brien jig a year or so ago, but the Elevate sure looks cool. Definitely less bulky than the O'Brien but the O'Brien seems to have one advantage in that it dials in the neck angle (i.e. your 88.5 degrees) based on the geometry of the guitar body. The Elevate also looked scary when you clamped it onto the body to do the mortise -- seems like it'd be easy to ether be too loose (and risk it slipping) or too tight (and risk damaging the top). Plus your fingers so close to the spinning router bit was giving me the cringes. 🙂

@BrainDeadBeats Год назад

Love all your videos it’s always a pleasant surprise when I see a new one

@waynejones6215 Год назад

Ha man you going to get this guitar done this year great work guys

@karljshaw Год назад

Great explanation and demonstration of the Mortise and Tenon work. Sure shows the value of that jig! Best to y'all, as always.

@Megamaid-StB Год назад

This build is so cool. Patiently waiting for the inlay videos , your incredible work inspired me to take up the challenge of learning the craft myself.

@kevindoran7007 Год назад

Looking forward to the next video 😎 see you guys around Christmas 😂. Love the series keep them coming

@tyhubb Год назад

Right on! Needed a little Driftwood fix!

@MillcreekGuitars-mz3pn Год назад

Hey Chris, Another Quality video- thanks for the insight. I look forward to the next video.

@rauschguitars Год назад

It's great to see this build progressing! That jig looks incredibly useful. It took me way longer than I'd like to admit to line up the neck on my acoustic build.

@billgreen4592 Год назад

I have previously used templates, but you've convinced me. Next commission I get, I'm buying this jig! Thanks!

@SkyscraperGuitars Год назад

Great to see this process!

@davidhole8175 Год назад

Awesome video which shows how this jig works very well (I've been curious for a while). Are you also planning a before video of how you cut your 88.5 angle and an after video for neck fitting / joint tweaking. That would be the winner!

@TommyAlanRaines Год назад

Great video and nice jig!

@flavorkingpluto Год назад

Great jig! I want one. Also, awesome hair!

@JM46jm Год назад

Excellent. Thank you.

‘Bout time, I already forgot how to build the rest! Totally kidding, so glad to see a new vid! Was stoked to get the notification

@robinkhoury5579 Год назад

Finally back 😊

@SiggyMe Год назад

This is so clearly shown and explained that if I was building a guitar I feel I could duplicate your instructions. Enjoying your series! Now if I can get ownership of one of your guitars. You ever have any dent and scratch models? Just kidding. Thanks!

@jeffro. Год назад

Yeah, I noticed your router sounded just like a pyanee! I was expectin' guitar music, since youzun buildin' one. I lok yer jig fer the neyak! Keep a-gwine.

I’m pretty sure the last episode was 3000 years ago. Let’s face it even your hair is greyer right?😂😂😂

@humanbeing5300 Год назад

This guy literally figured out guitar building through trial and error which is what makes a master. He’s made every mistake in the book and learned from them

@jamestutorialchannel2803 Год назад

hello friends, I enjoy watching the video, I want to learn how to make guitar

@LifeWideOpen780 Год назад

It's taking 3000 years for these videos to come out

Who is Philips? The Phillips screw is named for Portland businessman Henry F. Phillips, who patented it a few years after founding the Phillips Screw Company - but although Phillips refined the new screw's design, the idea didn't originate with him.

@russellcameronthomas2116 Год назад

I was briefly terrified at 7:45. Way to add drama to the build!

@joshuaburns9129 Год назад

more videos faster, if not for me, for will, who has been legit waiting multiple years. will has waited so long for his guitar that strangers in other countries are wondering when he is getting it

@larryhawes8295 Год назад

Hey Chris, thanks for the video. Question: how do you determine and match the depth of both the mortice and the tenon? Thanks.

@ShaneDavisDFTBA Год назад

I love seeing someone so confident in their capabilities that they’re happy to show themselves being completely befuddled as to which way the mortise and tenon go 😂

@ShaneDavisDFTBA Год назад

Because he knows that absolutely nobody else knows either.

Boa noite tá demorando pra postar vídeos gosto muito do conteúdo, Deus abençoe

@user-vr5nn4sh8z Год назад

I bought one of these after watching this video. $300 later, I got the jig, router bit and alignment bar. I routed the neck fine but when I got to the body, the bearing on the router bit failed and caused the bit to gouge up the jig. The owner said he would send me a new bit but to just bondo the jig and the joint should be o.k. He offered to sell me the jig portion for another $125. Just my experience. I wont buy from them again.

@timothyvanhorn7618 Год назад

He said he would explain the slightly deeper channel he routed next to the tenon at the end? Did I miss it? I believe he said it helped with fitting the neck on. Maybe it keeps the neck from rocking side to side?

@ggergg6423 9 месяцев назад

I believe he did that to make the neck fitting easier as it enables flossing(sanding) of the remaining(proud) wood in the area that was recessed much simpler. If you try to floss that area without a recessed section then the sandpaper has to get tight with the tenon which never works as planned.....ask me how I know....lol

@DavePilotCH47 Год назад

We don’t remember what happened in the last episode either!!

@Today_I_Want_To Год назад

I think it will be original a router hair cut? 🤗

@lostparlour Год назад

nice video.. i have an (unrelated) question: on my guitar, the high E string's sound seems to fade out quicker than other strings, is that a bracing problem and is there a way to fix it? thank you

@jonsnider3084 Год назад

Did you use the 3/4” or 7/8” wide tenon / mortise jig from Chris at Elevate? Thanks.

@kmichaelp4508 Год назад

Whaaaaaaaat! No dovetail joint? That’s a Flarda Guff Coast boy fur ya. 🤣

@markstaggs7342 Год назад

So how are these considered handmade guitar building when your using this stuff, Saying handmade guitars is a lie and no difference in the way Taylor builds there guitars, Handmade my ass lol.

@dalgguitars Год назад

Chris builds and voices each and every guitar differently according to the customer's needs and wants. Also, Taylor doesn't do the stunning inlay work he does. (by hand) This is probably not the RU-vid channel for you.

@markstaggs7342 Год назад

@@dalgguitars regardless of what you are saying it's still not handmade get real.And I'll decide what channel I watch definitely you won't decide.

@dalgguitars Год назад

@@markstaggs7342 This begs the question, how would you define "hand made" guitars?

@markstaggs7342 Год назад

@@dalgguitars If your saying inlay work by hand Taylor and Martin will do inlay work if you want to pay the cost,And if someone claims they make guitars by hand and use the same power equipment as the manufactured guitar builders use I don't see how you can claim handmade, Handmade is handmade and those claim built handmade want a huge big dollar for a lie.Your not that stupid you know damn well what I'm talking about.Inlay work can be done by any guitar company if you want to spend the money ,Get real and stop the bullshit lies about saying there handmade some people might believe this B.S.
