Straight out of the gate I love the look… but is it clickbait??
Roasted maple neck would really top it off, or make existing neck aged...Great job.
Good work, but bad choice on the rivets... It would have looked much better without them...
lol at rivets. Not a pleasant sight at all.
I was actually thinking of doing the same thing with a Chinese Strandberg kit. Hoping to do this soon enough as I’ve never built a guitar before and would love to make my own especially as a Strandberg style guitar. Your design really gives me more of a motivation to do so. Your design is amazing.
Why can't both live edges be kept? I see you went for the 2/3 wood 1/3 epoxy look but hypothetically speaking, could you have kept some of the edges from both ends? If the bark is a part of the edge of the guitar, can it be epoxy'd to stay on?
I suppose this guitar should be heavy as hell
It is pretty heavy, especially for a telecaster, but you can still play standing up
love your style
Very nice, where did you get that top ? o.O
It’s a sheet of copper, and I used a bunch of chemicals to make it look like that
@@horsefighter_69 can i ask you what kind of chemicals you used ? :) thanks
@OverloadGuitars Crimson Guitars has a really good video about it. I used ammonia vapour, salt and vinegar
@@horsefighter_69 super nice, thanks, i will check him out
I cant find this kit anymore :(
I’ve looked all over the internet but I can’t find it anymore either. There is a very similar headless kit on Etsy
@@horsefighter_69 I really need the two point trem. I want to switch out a for a hipshot. I guess I'll just have to break out the router.
@tommcmasters That’s probably a better idea. A Hipshot trem won’t fit without modifications, so you’re better off routing everything from scratch
I hope you have figured out by now to use vacuum bags when doing veneers, this will let you shape it around the contours.
I still would worry about cutting myself on some part of the guitar at some point.
LOUDER!
Hope your thumb is well!
Haha, thanks. It recovered pretty quickly
That is abso-fookin-lutely gorgeous man! Congratulations! Best Regards and Best Wishes!
Wow..keren ist good job
Thanks for this video, I am curing some spalted maple for a couple Telecaster style builds in the Spring. How thick is your piece of spalted beech for your top? It looks thicker than 1/4" ( 6.35mm ). Thank you.
Oh, awesome. I usually use tops around 10mm thick, around 3/8”. Also depends on the thickness of your body, I like to end up with a guitar around 40-45mm thick
Dude. All that effort. The result made me sad. I am sure you got what you wanted, and many would really like it, but damn dude.
You okay man? That look really painful
It didn’t hurt that bad when it happened, it was really bad the next day though. It ended up healing fine, no permanent damage
@@horsefighter_69 that’s good. Reminded me of when I got too close to a spinning down table saw. Still aches some mornings
Yeah, those are some serious learning points
I’m so sorry, I couldn’t help but to laugh really hard when you accidentally routed that audio hole bigger. Definitely something I’ve accidentally done with a router
Seriously, clever recovery on that. I thought you were gonna epoxy it in, but it still looks great
Haha, that’s happened a number of times before. Luckily this guitar’s overall theme allowed this solution, because I have thrown out bodies because of this before
That is very cool. Is it super heavy being oak and epoxy?
It's relatively heavy, but I like the weight
Oh my god tune that thing
Isn't it a bit wasteful to use padouk on the body? Yet you used another wood as a cover. So why padouk?
How was the bird inlays on the fretboard made?
This was a factory neck, but with inlays like this you need a CNC, it's very difficult to do by hand
Looks pretty good. sounds nice as well.
Thank you
Too many questions...
absolutely great !! What a job !!! Thank You !!
How did you connect the pickup holes to the control plate hole? I am currently building and am stuck on this step!
You can buy drill bits that are long enough to reach the control cavity from the pickup cavities. Usually a 6mm will do
просто супер!!!!!молодкц!!идея гениальная!!!!привет из РОССИИ!
I’m jealous of your neck pocket technique. I’ve attempted several, and a tight fit still evades me. Nice work!
Que genial
Very cool video! Love that jig you made for the neck mortise. Definitely learned a few things for when I eventually attempt a build. But when you were hogging out the body and that drill press bit your hand… ouch!
the technique for the neck pocket was sweet brody
Forgot too intonate it there that's probadly the next you'll know then it's time too rock out
Woodglut comes with very useful plans with all the details you need.
Eh, rivets made me cringe a little cus it's wood but whatever ;)
Mine works too. I used the Woodglut plans and performed it without any problems.
. ..respect to you for the build...
Next time use copper rivets to match
Great 👍🏻
Why those hideous dots?
You mean the hideous entire veneer
Beautiful guitar. Me wants it. I’m normally a maple-board kinda guy, but on this occasion I think rosewood would have looked better. A darker fret board would have matched and balanced the dark spots on the main body.
What is the make of your Router ?
I always use a Festool OF1010, really high quality router, and they last forever
Copper top with an epoxy finish ? You , my friend , are a glutton for punishment. Why pick such a labor intensive finish ? I'd have gone with a fabric top ( no rights ) and 4 K finish. But I respect your choices.
I fucking hate gaming laptops. Today when I walked into my economics class I saw something I dread every time I close my eyes. Someone had brought their new gaming laptop to class. The Forklift he used to bring it was still running idle at the back. I started sweating as I sat down and gazed over at the 700lb beast that was his laptop. He had already reinforced his desk with steel support beams and was in the process of finding an outlet for a power cable thicker than Amy Schumer's thigh. I start shaking. I keep telling myself I'm going to be alright and that there's nothing to worry about. He somehow finds a fucking outlet. Tears are running down my cheeks as I send my last texts to my family saying I love them. The teacher starts the lecture, and the student turns his laptop on. The colored lights on his RGB Backlit keyboard flare to life like a nuclear flash, and a deep humming fills my ears and shakes my very soul. The entire city power grid goes dark. The classroom begins to shake as the massive fans begin to spin. In mere seconds my world has gone from vibrant life, to a dark, earth shattering void where my body is getting torn apart by the 150mph gale force winds and the 500 decibel groan of the cooling fans. As my body finally surrenders, I weep, as my school and my city go under. I fucking hate gaming laptops.

I'm waiting for my Chinese Steinberger (Chynberger?) from DHGate to arrive to me in the US. It's been going back and forth in China for the past 10 days. I wonder if I'll ever get it. How are those Chinese tremolos? I'm wondering if there's a way to retro fit a Floyd Rose type on the body. I'm guessing some wood need to be added and then some new holes drilled.
The stock tremolo systems are alright, they stay in tune ok if you don't abuse them. Fitting a Floyd Rose is not super difficult, you'll have to put some wood back in, and then route out everything as usual.
Cardboard on the band-saw was very clever. Nicely done!
