- Well I had this in my head for a bit. I finally got the chance to get it done. This is a neat coloring on my guitar body that I built.

Love the guitar, was wondering if these dyes were the leather or suede ones?
I dont mean to be so offtopic but does anyone know a method to get back into an Instagram account??
I was stupid forgot my account password. I would love any tips you can offer me!
@Arjun Forest instablaster =)
@Jesse Gianni Thanks so much for your reply. I got to the site through google and I'm in the hacking process now.
Looks like it's gonna take a while so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.
@Jesse Gianni it worked and I finally got access to my account again. I'm so happy:D
Thank you so much, you saved my account!
These videos can be like therapy to distract a troubled mind at times.
I know what you mean. making these is the same thing.
They’ve certainly been both helping and inspiring here.
🤪🤪🤪🤪🤪
Well said Chris! There is just so much Jack Assery going on in the world it’s nice to just sit back a watch something cool be created 👍🏻👍🏻
I absolutely love this! It reminds me of a multicolor finish PRS did about 30 years ago that looks almost as though it were applied with a sponge. I always wanted to replicate it but didn't have the gumption to experiment. This finish not only does everything I liked about that old PRS finish, but it's the ONLY finish I can tolerate burl wood in. Nice work! Thanks for the video!
ahh yea I remember that finish.
Galaxy of color , oh how I love the beauty of burl, hell even Burl Ives was cool! ( especially when he voiced Sam the snowman ⛄️ 😂)
I hated it until you put the velvet oil on it. I love it now. Looks great!
I wasn’t sure what that was going to look like, but that came out super cool
gotta play!
Beautiful!
Great job Derek the Super Nova burst is born.
thanks fred. Still thinking about your email. I don't know what I really want!
@@bigdguitars Hi Derek, I think I have some ideas. Set up a skype zoom teams or whatever and lets have a brain storm.
When the oil was applied - wow!
WOW. That looks sharp !!!
I was about to start my first ever stain job (just a test on a beautiful figured Cumaru piece), then I saw this come up on my CZcams feed. Guess watching an additional lesson won't hurt.
When the Velvet Oil goes on wow! You should run a competition at your local design school for a graphics mock-up of a guitar using these techniques... I bet the kids would have better plans than "just stick random blobs of colour on" haha. I think a H.R. Giger head would look amazing on the front....
Super cool look.
This thing was looking somewhat awkward at first, but then you put some oil on it and went WIIIIIIIIIIIIIILD. Great job D!
haha. year had to try something different
Great job!
Oh my that is beautiful.
I made a similar stain on a spalted maple top but without black... I call it autumn dye... 😊
Looks amazing
That velvet oil was great! I love this paint job
Looks so cool D!!
thank you
not enough likes! this is incredible!! thanks for the inspiration
Phenomenal! I see a face in the burl on the back!
haha!
I absolutely love that. I’d love a Milky Way guitar.
Man, pour some white acrylic dye on a toothbrush and flick it on that! That would make the stars appear!
not a bad idea
Awesome effect!
Burl + paisley = burlsey!
That turned out absolutely amazing. I've seen a few of your videos before, but this time I subscribed. Thanks.
Awesome! Thank you!
Looks fantastic.
I dig it .
Great video. Cool looking guitar finish.
I think I'm going to try a variable of this stain design. Great look
Thanks for the new burl video. Trying to get some ideas for a golden camphor burl I have. Might have to try your honey burst scheme on it.
yellow and brown always nice.
Wooooow. That is awesome with a finish, on the back, agreed. I did indeed go ahead and get the neutral, I wanted to be able to thin a color out if needed.
thats one that I am now recommending after playing a bunch.
Nice work D!
It’s safe to say that you’ve gone
“where no one has gone before”
....the “Final Frontier” 🖖😉
Absolutely love it. Have you seen the Harley Benton TE-90 blast series. Would love to see you do a finish like those. Also, I’m intrigued by the sungkai wood they use.
I didnt think much of it until you added the oil, and then wow!! Looks fabulous mate. Mow ive got yo go back and check some of those older videos you talked about😁
thanks! make sure you re subscribe I am lost in youtube. I have 500 vids out there.
@@bigdguitars Done!
love it!
great vid! I love the burl vids that looks badass
Looks like it was fun
Amazing job, that back looks insane, I love it!
Love It... 🔥👍🤘🏼I love ya Bro, my wife doesn’t doesn’t really care much for you... 😂 lol, you’re costing her spending 💰 money... lol
Love it
I never use leather dyes on wood, I'm pissy that way , if I don't have 90%+ chemical compatibility I just won't do it .That being said.
That's pretty ! Nice Continental drifts .
Is that dye alcohol based ?
If so there's something that I do with the die and acetone .
I usually use a gold flake background or any solid color but usually something bright. (Goldenrod works very well too)
Spray on all those colors you used not heavy just on and then dab it with a rag wetted with acetone don't wipe it don't do anything. Let it go you'll see and dab away . You can layer it out also .
P. S. You are one of the better guitar guys one the tube .
And your a Journeyman Finisher unlike most of the turn around hires .
(You know , the one's that disappeared on the first break on the first day)
Due to Hereditary Chronic Pancreatitis . I can't anymore, so you get what I won't take to the grave , too much lost already by Masters not sharing .
First after I did your subscribe fix this popped right up!!! Guess I got the booby prize!
These videos are cool. Shame I can't find a good video on how to wire up my guitar that I painted and stained. The site I bought it from doesn't have a wiring diagram for that model ( go figure)
I can never find these bodies for sale. They must sell faster than anything else.
I didn't even know these existed until now. Really neat.
@@Madchris8828 Yeah he makes some killer tops. Fender should take note.
Happy little blobs
haha. Bob Ross of guitar stains would be an honor!
Okay, I take a raw wood guitar body, put the dyes I want to get color, can I use a water based grain filler before using TruOil? My plan before was dye, water based filler, water based sanding sealer (all rattle can stuff) then water based spray lacquer. Watching you use TruOil (and now Velvet Oil),I want to try that. Less cure time and much less moisture and temperature sensitive . Let me know what you thinks. Thanks.
It's gonna be hard to makes copy of that guitar👍
That's what being unique is all about. This is art.
With a really good gloss, I love it. No expert, but thoughts on metallic spots or white splattered paint for stars?
Hey Big D. So you mentioned that this guitar will be put on the shelf for a while.... Well, I am an amateur/semi prof. luthier and I would love to finish the build on this guitar. Would you consider selling the body? Give me a shout if you would (wood :-)
Double Burl. Milton and Ives?
You said you used a buffing compound when you buffed it out. What type of compound?
Looks great, but you need better thumbnails, make the photo of the guitar much bigger.
I edited this to make it bigger.
thanks!!!
Really nice job! - can't find the finish you use when I search "velvet oil" what is it and where do I find it?
I just did a review of it: czcams.com/video/r9V2DMXdjQQ/video.html
Do you have an affiliate link for the gloves that you use?
nah I get those anywhere they sell them/
Can mahagony also be stained
Paisley isn't a color! It's a pattern.
No such thing as "too purple."
It worked. You are back on me feed.

thanks!
When building guitars starts to become boring, you can either do silly things to them or find another hobby. Some of your burls look really great... this one looks like a 5 year old colored it with his finger-paints.
Haha. I love this comment. It’s true. I should continue the awesome stains
