Forgot to mention in the video that the resin I used is UV resistant so it should not yellow over time. Song at the end was something I made up. Thanks for watching
Right?! I'm here like "HOLY CRAP DUDE! THAT GUITAR IS SICK BRO!! SHIT I I WOULD NAME IT SOMETHING LIKE LAZULI STREAM OR SOMETHING AWESOME I DONT KNOW!!! BRO I WOULD PAY SO MUCH FOR A GUITAR LIKE THAT!!!" And he's like: "Yeah, I'm pretty satisfied with how it came out..."
I know of a guy who makes actual glass guitars. Like, not acrylic guitars, literally glass body and glass neck. Ima search for a link right now. It's not a crushed one though. But it's made out of actual glass sheets, and the craftmanship that goes behind it is just crazy! He also cannot research anything because he is literally the only person I know who does that, so he has to figure it all out by himself.
Ive watched this video three times now. I find it inspiring as I am also a woodworker. my favorite thing about this guitar is that you didn't really do all that much to the wood; you just highlighted it's natural beauty and put it in a situation where that can be recognized. great job man.
You really need to brand these things, you could even do a dark wood, with a red resin to make it look like a valley with a lava pit, almost like a heaven and hell variant. In any case, this is possibly the coolest looking guitar I have ever seen, and I want one!
I've been playing for 40 yrs, had a few very nice guitars & seen a whole bunch of nice ones over the yrs but this one is THE most beautiful one I've EVER seen in my entire life! Awesome job man!
This is my favorite one so far! The floating effect on the bridge is really cool and the grain of the wood you used is insanely beautiful. Love the way light comes through the back of it. Thing of beauty
You should do this with some cracked darker wood like mahogany or something and fill the cracks with red/orange. Make it look like lava is flowing throughout the guitar
I gotta say, I think I like this a lot more than your colored pencil guitars. That being said, I've got an idea; frozen model guitar. Instead of a clear resin "river" you could put little train tracks and a model train in the gully or a road and little cars on the road. Stop laughing, it's a serious idea.
yooo you should do the same concept but a lava river and use a darkwood or redwood like a volcano or something lol idk gorgeous guitar thanks subbed and notif :D
Yeah man African blackwood would be most Affordable exotic wood to buy for that, the wood they use for the black piano keys is gaboon ebony. It is super hard and it can crack easily but that is an awesome idea.
That is the coolest piece of art I’ve ever seen on CZcams and that’s really saying something! The monetary value of that item is immeasurable. Awesome job man!
honestly, you could literally shut down fender, gibson and jackson at once with ur stylish guitars and basses... un fucking believable how skillful you are
It's already like several levels above the Gibbies and Fendies. The big companies should learn to get their shaite together, otherwise they will be smashed by the creators that build real guitars that can actually play and look awesome.
Scott Grove yeah and you can make old uploads private so he could have 10 old videos but we can only see 4 or something like that. Or he could just be that good!
I'm about to reveal his secret, (not so much of a secrete) he has a different CZcams Channel where he travels off road in his Toyota Truck in the wilderness its quite interesting to watch. Its called Roadie
THIS is a true masterpiece man. One of the prettiest things i've ever seen, i'm astounded! Everything is perfect, the idea, the shape of guitar and this river, gold finishes, wood texture. I want this!
This really inspires me to make custom guitars of my own. I really love the shape of the Tele body but I am mainly a bass player so I could make a bass with a Tele body. I'll probably do this as a side project. It seems really hard but the end result will be worth it. Thanks for the inspiration!
Just brilliant! This build is one of my favourites as the timber looks incredible and has so much depth. The hardware looks beautiful against the tone of the body too. Awesome work Burl. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
You do beautiful work. As a pro auto painter, I've done a handful of guitars and drums. You'd be able to get a slick mirror finish that makes your color really pop if you'd get a body shop to clear your guitar body with a proper 2k urethane and not use the spray cans. It would have MUCH better scratch, chip, and chemical resistance, and It'd cost you maybe $50. Well done, sir. You're inspiring!
This is very true. Even more so if you take into account that becoming (and staying) a truly skilled musician alone takes up a whole lot of your time already.
We have the Mona Lisa.. Statue of David ...The Pyramids...and last but not least The Amazing Stunning Wonderkind of Burls Art. I am Completely blown to pieces by the level of original thought and incredible vision of the finished work.Those 3 Guitars that you have created are Priceless works of art ...fit to be seen in a very High End Gallery....Thanks for this fantastic bath of the senses. Genius you are....
@@themanthemyththelegend1392 im a master luthier. I know he diddnt make the neck but dont assume i know jackshit. I own my own buisiness and for what tools he has he made a nice body. Quit hating.
Your brain is AWESOME. These art pieces deserve an audience, and I'm forever grateful for your many talents to be showcased to millions on youtube. Thanks so much for sharing such beautiful pieces of functional art!!!
This is definitely not a 'bridge over troubled water'. This is a beaut!!! Johnny Rivers & The Little River Band would be proud...Thanks for sharing, Burl!
Thank you so much for sharing on how you make the guitar. It is amazing how the guitar turned out. The video really inspires me to try to make my own guitar.
Pour clear epoxy first, then some blue and clear on top again...playing with "depths" of layers gives you endless variations on this design only. This and your other creations are just mind blowing... Keep up the great work! Respect.
Forgot to mention in the video that the resin I used is UV resistant so it should not yellow over time. Song at the end was something I made up. Thanks for watching
Please, where can I find that song at the end? I love it so much! Greetings from Brasil!!
This guitar sounds the best out of ur other ones
@@dalirosa4694 you just improvise over some chords... I'm sure you could find trillions of songs like that
Do you plan on selling any of these?
What is your price
When the bridge is literally a bridge
Indeed
hahaha
Lmao
first thing cross our mind...looking at the thumbnail...lol...
no, it's floating.
You need to start branding and selling these, cuz I really want one.
EvanMcLeod same
Agreed
I think he addressed this in his last video. Sadly, I remember him saying it was too time consuming or something along those lines.
@@mindmixer8244 Well the idea is that I'd rather create a new guitar with the time I have, rather than a bunch of the same guitars.
Strongly recommend watching this:
czcams.com/video/4x0f2b_0kn0/video.html
Each guitar can be 100% unique which would make them even more valuable
Mad how humble these guy is. Doesn't hype anything up at all. He's just doing his thing
Right?! I'm here like "HOLY CRAP DUDE! THAT GUITAR IS SICK BRO!! SHIT I I WOULD NAME IT SOMETHING LIKE LAZULI STREAM OR SOMETHING AWESOME I DONT KNOW!!! BRO I WOULD PAY SO MUCH FOR A GUITAR LIKE THAT!!!"
And he's like: "Yeah, I'm pretty satisfied with how it came out..."
Ik it makes him really fun to watch. And he’s like super talented.
On point
A guitar made of crushed glass or whole marbles would be pretty cool IMO

John Buick make it a bass 😏
Hershey bar guitar, or chocolate chip.
With Lights.
That is literally the prettiest guitar I’ve ever seen
That´s what i was thinking through the whole last part...like those words exactly...
Have you seen the similar one by Ormsby, with tiny hammer head sharks "swimming" in it? Not to say that this one doesn't look incredible!
I wholeheartedly agree.
Agree
100% agree
The 2 pencils guitars were fun experiences but this one is truly a piece of Art.
It would definitely stand out at any custom guitars show.
Burl saying his guitars are ok meanwhile I would literally sell my own toe to get one
True.
I'd sell my goddamn soul for one
Of all the guitars you’ve made, this is the one I wish I could own the most. So amazing and beautiful. Keep it up man. 🙂
id rather own the paper guitar but this one is cool too
Another impressive build. Nice work!
Both of you are my favorite youtubers!!!
Haha jerry rig can you do a bend test on this guitar?
Did not expect to find you here 😁
Why are you here
So you like guitars!?!?!
Dude i loved the pencil guitars, but this thing is BEAUTIFUL.
I agree 🤘

brian may red special is the most beautiful actually.the history behind is fascinating.check out queen band.
@@ting6161 i love queen and it's a great guitar but in terms of looks this takes the cake any day over red special
This IS the most beautiful guitar you’ve ever seen haha
@@ting6161 Red Special is fairly bland, it's unique, but that's about it. Are you sure you aren't just showing a bias because you love the band?
Just a idea, A clear apoxie Guitar with lots of fake flowers in it would be cool
YES!
I love that idea but REAL flowers! The epoxy would preserve them forever yes?
@@Pheralrage Real flowers would be cooler. But I dont know
Yes!! If you desicate real flowers in silica gel (the small beads), they hold up really well in resin.
Or fake lemons
The man said I want to add some cuts to make it stand out bruh you literally have a river in your guitar
yeet eskit it was also for ergonomics
This guitar is so goddamn beautiful...it actually makes me want to cry.
Right! I just ordered a bucket of epoxy 😂
Hey look up the ilumiecent guitar by Dean Fraser
You really need to brand these things, you could even do a dark wood, with a red resin to make it look like a valley with a lava pit, almost like a heaven and hell variant. In any case, this is possibly the coolest looking guitar I have ever seen, and I want one!
Wooowh...
That idea sounds awesome man...
Hope he tries that
Agree with you guys 😀
I've been playing for 40 yrs, had a few very nice guitars & seen a whole bunch of nice ones over the yrs but
this one is THE most beautiful one I've EVER seen in my entire life!
Awesome job man!
I agree brother. Not just beautiful but inspiring. Truly captures the essence of electric at the simplest form.
I agree!
40 years! Man he needs to get you one, let a pro get his dream guitar!
This is my favorite one so far! The floating effect on the bridge is really cool and the grain of the wood you used is insanely beautiful. Love the way light comes through the back of it. Thing of beauty
I would buy this, and I'm not even a guitarist
me either, yet i am strangely attracted to them as art. (music fiend, but alas...i cannot play.) i adore the godin exit 22
That’s sad
Me too! WOW!
this is the single coolest guitar i have every seen
you should make these for a living man, they'll sell for crazy
I wonder what would be the price of them doe ... I'd love to have the one with color pencils one (mixed colors) even though I don't play.
Agreed! And I've seen a fucking lot of guitars
Christian Ivanov With the amount of time and effort he puts into it, handmade? Have to charge $2,000
The prices on them would be ludicrous seeing as they're all hand made but its worth it if not to play just as a display piece.
I'm not crazy about the coloured pencil guitars but I would buy one of these regardless of the price as soon as they came out
You should do this with some cracked darker wood like mahogany or something and fill the cracks with red/orange. Make it look like lava is flowing throughout the guitar
I'd suggest to do this one in the shape of a burning bird
Mahogany is a lot more porous, painting would prove more difficulty
Very nice vision, like it.
That's the prettiest guitar I've ever seen.
Holy cow this is the coolest looking guitar I’ve ever seen in my entire life
Open a guitar brand I'll certainly but one of these masterpieces
not when you see the price tag...
*buy
Same, i would love to buy of his guitars!!
@@ArdentSM well they should be around 1000 dollars i guess
A guitar won't fit in your butt or maybe it will. I'd rather not know.
I love how the pickup and bridge just seem to float over the guitar. You def need to do more stuff with resin.
Well now it really is a bridge =)))
It´s not only the tech thing applyed to the instrument, but also the metaphor of the water under the strings. Beautiful.
Why would anyone give this video a thumbs down? The man is a creative genius
I gotta say, I think I like this a lot more than your colored pencil guitars.
That being said, I've got an idea; frozen model guitar. Instead of a clear resin "river" you could put little train tracks and a model train in the gully or a road and little cars on the road.
Stop laughing, it's a serious idea.
I only just saw your comment, but have suggested the same thing!
The only issue is he said he doesnt have a vacuum chamber so any extra pieces would create bubbles galore in the epoxy and weaken it structurally
This might be good like A train road and cars and maybe some trees it'd be perfect
I'm still laughing
lol.. I think somene like a bit of Hornby :)
yooo you should do the same concept but a lava river and use a darkwood or redwood like a volcano or something lol idk gorgeous guitar thanks subbed and notif :D
That would be awesome. Maybe a gibson explorer with the lava river going diagonally?
This is such a good idea
Right? And use fiber optic or LEDs to illuminate the lava and make it "flow". Awesome.
Yeah man African blackwood would be most Affordable exotic wood to buy for that, the wood they use for the black piano keys is gaboon ebony. It is super hard and it can crack easily but that is an awesome idea.
It needs to be a flying v with 2 rivers.
This is my favorite guitar you've built, Burls. Simple look, and love the warm tone to it. Has an all-around river feel in my book. Great work!
That is the coolest piece of art I’ve ever seen on CZcams and that’s really saying something! The monetary value of that item is immeasurable. Awesome job man!
You should make a backlit epoxy lava guitar like the lava table, that would be crazy.
Yes!!
With an Ebony headstock!!! 🙌
That last song is worthy of releasing and extended recording of.
Wait it's not a real song damn I was trying to look for it sounds very good
@@younghades4271 its basically human nature by michael jackson.
@YUPPY thx appreciate it
It sounded like the verse on human nature by Michael Jackson
honestly, you could literally shut down fender, gibson and jackson at once with ur stylish guitars and basses... un fucking believable how skillful you are
Love the way it's surface reflects lights, it's magical.
This is definitely the most beautiful instrument I've ever seen. Amazing work.

Hey, you should make custom guitars for people. I’d love a bass.
I completely agree. I would buy one. By the way, he should make a Danelectro Longboard. I have one and it is awsome.
Wyatt Jones longboard? I’ve heard of the longhorn but not the longboard
he's explained that they take too long to make to sell, and that they're made as peices of art more than instruments
@@johannordlund2437 I'd definitely display it more than play it if I bought one

giving a new meaning to the term "floating bridge"
He's used a fixed bridge here though. (sorry for destroying the joke)
@@surekhaahlawat6068 well aren't u fun at parties
@@surekhaahlawat6068 hence the 'new' meaning...
I think we need a video of just the music he plays. The songs are so calm and soothing and it’s nice. That’s also a legendary guitar.
This is the coolest thing i have ever seen! The blue resin looks incredible and almost glows.
Watch out prs, fender, Gibson and others. Burls guitars is climbing towards yah.
*PREACH*
Right! Him alone can compete with gibson!
It's already like several levels above the Gibbies and Fendies. The big companies should learn to get their shaite together, otherwise they will be smashed by the creators that build real guitars that can actually play and look awesome.

Your content is so polished and fresh. How is this your 4th video???
When someone who has 4 videos has more subscribers than someone with hundrede it shows the potential for growth on this channel
He may have had other channels, got it all figured out through those and this is a new one that looks slick as snot.

Not sure which I enjoy more, the build or the demo song playing at the end. Both are very impressive. Keep it up, young man.
That river effect is mesmerizing... so beautiful...
So a guitar with a bridge, literally and figuratively.
You now what would be cool. Is to make a guitar bridge that can still be intoned and make it look like a walking bridge
LOL!!!
The bridge is a bridge and the pickup is a bridge, too.
