    This is really impressive i love it! Im actually trying to decide between a couple of different bikes for my first one and a 750 sabre is one of them, but i wanted to see it changed up like this and this has helped me make the decision. Id like to be able to talk to you about it when i get into it if thats ok? Send me a message when you can

  • @spaceshifterstereogunmachine

    How do you find the Vegatrem for a compound radius till 16"? Can the saddles be adjusted for 16" radius? I guess it stays in tune looking from the video. Awesome guitar you have there btw

    • @justinlafuente1782
      @justinlafuente1782 Před 6 dny

      The vegatrem feel really nice ! The radius is 10" at the nut, 16" at the 22th fret. Because it keeps flattening, it should be around 19" or 20" at the bridge. I don't remember exactly. But the setting range is quite wide, no prob to set it at 16" I guess. I put the neck quite high while routing the cavity, this way the saddles of the vegatrem are set up quite high as well and I don't feel the adjusting screws while palm muting

    I have immensely enjoyed watching you build this guitar very innovative, very precise and the way you take that work to peace in April and made it work with a really unique looking shade. Looks like it would make for a comfortable strong play, especially for one who was excluded running our pay years so thank you. For sharing this build , it has been great watching

    I'm certainly not saying this wasn't an excellent job for both making and playing the guitar, that was fantastic. What I am saying is this is the second misleading title as far as making guitars goes that I've seen this week. The first video I saw had a title along the lines of "Built for $30". Then the guy proceeded to use at least as many tools in his workshop of probably $10,000 of tools as the guy used in this video. To title this as a balcony Strat because that's where you made most of it is not quite true. He simply moved his workshop equipment out onto the balcony to do what he usually does in the workshop.
