I just binged the whole series in two days. I started getting mad about the 6th video in. I was down right looking for blood abound the 14th. I kept thinking to myself,"is he even worried about intonation?" However, two videos back when you started curving the neck and shaping the body, it came alive. I finally saw your dream. I don't mean this to sound negative because it isn't, but while it is obvious you know your way around a piece of wood, you made being a luthier look hard. These guys over at crimson guitars make it look like any one can whip out a master piece. You made it fun and awesome but I'd never try that in a million years.

i just watched all of these non-stop. You did a fantastic job putting this together, the hiccups have really given me some lessons learned and you really convinced me on importance of hand-tooling a lot in this process. Wow! Just really grateful you did this. I intend on this being my profession later in life and will hopefully have this at the ready while I am trying to define a process. Thank you.

Watched this from start to finish, all 20 episodes across two 12 hour night-shifts. That turned out Savage Matt. Trying to learn to play a 4 string, at 44 years of age its a bit of a challenge but i will get there. A sub from me for life. Best wishes from across the Irish Sea.

It was so enjoyable seeing the journey making that bass, seeing the little things behind the scenes, seeing what can potentially happen making a bass like that, and just feeling like your a part of the journey. I would love to see you make another bass again because this was just so fun watching, and really fun learning how make really nice bass like what you have done. I hope to see another bass in the future.

Absolutely incredible. It was so awesome to be a part of the journey. This video is edited so well. I will watch it multiple times. But with the series overall, I loved seeing your obstacles and the thought process as you overcame them. It reminds of what my woodworking instructor told me: A great woodworker isn’t someone who doesn’t make mistakes. A great woodworker is someone who knows how to fix their mistakes. Keep up the great work.

This series was inspiring to watch. I do not play a musical instrument and I currently have no intention of building one, but seeing you work on this and solve the problems you ran into was a helpful process. It is mostly woodworking and whatever you want to make a lot of the process is problem solving, so thanks for showing the mistakes and problems as well as the parts that went as expected. I will use what I gained from this series and your other videos to help improve my home.
