So cool to see this guitar come together! You guys have been super helpful on my journey through this hobby and are an inspiration for what a quality instrument should look like. Thank you and keep up the good work fellas!
Yesssss...another Driftwood vid. Made my week, again.
Thanks Chris and Matt.
Good info! Thanks fellas!
I'm sure there is an alternate universe where this guitar is already finished.
Great video guys and a ton of good info👊
Thanks Mike!
Try using a dent repair light setup to inspect.
Like $30 and worth its weight in Gold to see imperfections on a surface 👍🏻
Im on queue, on point!
A cleaner bench surface would help with some of those dents you need to remove.
A whole raft of good tips, thanks! Gluboost sells a "fill n finish", self leveling super glue made especially for those tiny binding and rosette gaps and cracks. I am going to get some...I was fitting individual pieces of shell in the rosette ring, impossible to fit closely enough to not show the hairline cracks between pieces and between shell and spruce under the finish. If this product works well I will leave shell details a little low to avoid the ramp and divot problem sanding from soft material to hard and to avoid sanding down through pretty shell layers and then fill the low shell channel with their product. After watching your tour of your spray booth I looked for another way. Robbie O'brien has a great online French Polish course for under a hundred bucks, so well worth it. Has transformed finishing from a long white knuckle flight to a quick hop on a super sonic jet;)
FYI, Amazon is $30 for 4 oz. StewMac is $15 for 4 oz. I was surprised.
@@howardcrane5902 Thanks!
Don't scare me like that. He teaser for the video made it look like you got a haircut.
Hi Chris, why is the inside face of the guitar not coated with a thin spray of protection from water or beer spills? Hope you can answer me..
I understand you might be struggling for time and that’s alright but I think the majority of us have no plans whatsoever to build any guitars. We like to see one getting built. And missing the process now when it’s close to the end is a bit of a bummer
Yeah, I was disappointed there was no hands on work in this episode.
Two episodes #39?
3rd!
When in doubt,sand it out derrrr🙄
ahem,
*3000 year old guitar?*
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
This guitar started with short hair, and no gray in sight😂😂
But I did watch every episode
I think the whole there is more than one way to skin a cat excuse for not showing the prep and finish is a cop-out. I mean why show us what woods you are using; guitars are made from all different types of wood, why show us how to make this guitar shape; there are lots of different shapes. Now if you wanted to say that you have a whole video on how to prep a guitar on the channel or that you have a stewmac video showing how to finish an electric, i would understand, but this whole series has been about the nitty gritty. Why stop now?
Because somethings are proprietary.
@@BrianTruesby if that's the case then why the excuse? I am going to take them at their word and assume they weren't being dishonest in their reasoning. And, if that's the case, then I think they missed the mark by not showing the process. My opinion is that this guitar build series was all about showing the whole process, and to change that in the last few steps of the process makes this series seem unfinished.
@@Flipflop1884 It wouldnt really be in his best interest to show you precisely how to build a Driftwood acoustic. If he did that, he wouldn't be able to justify his required price to purchase one.
@@BrianTruesby They have already created a video series showing "How to prep a guitar for finish" which shows the process described in this video on one of his production acoustic guitars. If the reason given was we already showed this go check out that video then I could understand, I would still disagree with not showing it on the 3000 year old series but at least that would be a valid reason to me.
@@BrianTruesby Btw, I love this channel and the videos they put out. I have watched every video on this channel and will continue to. I am just making a pretty minor critique on this video. Just wanted to make that clear.
3003 years later........please read in French accent ......
I've been trying to avoid this as long as you've had this up, but I can't help myself anymore. If you use material in a build that 3000 years old that does not make the object built 3000 years old, Just saying.
No 💩
