    Custom builder here. this guy did a good job. A lack of expensive specialty tools forced him to make custom jigs to accomplish specific jobs. The jig for a comp radius was simple and effective. Good problem solving and critical thinking skills as well. A person needs to be Intuitive in this game in order to achieve quality. Not everyone has that. Keep building man.

    This for me, is the best video of a guitar built from scratch that I’ve ever seen!!! Everything about this video knocked my socks off. Fantastic craftsman, luthier, artist, designer,musician and much more…👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

    I liked the fact that you accepted the mistake and turned it into a feature instead of feeling sad. Very nice work!🎉

    brilliant - enough info to see how you worked through the build and all the jigs and techniques you used without ever getting bogged down and the result is just beautiful - thanks for taking the time and effort to record your build and share it with us. I particularly liked your trem stop idea

    Wow! Unbelievable! Start to finish.... crazy good stuff! All the way to the jamm at the end. Tremendous talent. Wonderful.

    Amazing work. Loved seeing how you worked through unexpected issues (upper horn, in particular; adding the lines as a graphic flourish to cover the seam line was very clever).

    Beautiful! I love how you showed your mistakes and make it work for you. I love the Vega trem and your DIY stopper.

    Beautiful & totally original. Love the back of the neck, love the trem stop, love the opposing fret dots locations, love the coil split (best pickup combo ever). Incredible & now I know what I want to do in retirement 🤘🏼

    Absolutely phenomenal build. The detail that went into the neck pocket, the tremolo, the pick up cavities, the pick ups, the neck and the body... it's insane!
