- While camping outdoors last year, I thought of collecting beautiful leaves. and then I thought of "Why not make them into a guitar, no one has done that" so I gave it a try.

That's awesome man! Another great build. Is it just me.. or after watching you build a guitar like that; shouldn't the title of the song be called "Leaf Me A Comment" ... 😅😉
That's awesome title!
@@GitaraMakerheyy check that out! I’m glad you like it man - use it!! Feel free, and keep up all the good work; I enjoy watching you in your element and craft! Sending my best wishes and blessings! 👊🏼🙏🏼
I was thinking "Make Like A Tree... And Get Outta Here" 😂
@@sh06un1s underrated
@@sh06un1s*smacks your head with a newspaper* no its make like a tree and Leaf you moron 😂
God i love those 3 movies
You are very lucky that you have a good source of tone leaves to use in your build.
toan is in the leaf!!!!
here at the city all i have is trash papers all over the streets 😂💥😮💡
I'd call the song leaf on a stream 😊
@@vitorstreetboyshighly resonating trash maybe 😅
NOOO THE TONE IS IN THE KNOBS!!!!! :((((((((() :((((((()))
This is quite possibly the best use of epoxy I've ever seen. Well done!
Thank you! The materials are just laying down on the ground, and leaves on its own look beautiful already.
@@GitaraMakerof 😅 pp oo😊😊😅m😅
There is a kid that built one out of newspaper in a similar way. One of the nicest guitars I have ever seen.
@@GilaMonster971 I highly doubt that was a kid, boomer
@@realemonful wtf are you talking about? Zoomer
I built my first guitar when I was 13 y/o
You are a magician, never stop building guitars
Thank you!
Amazing build. I’m currently building a guitar out of my grandfathers barn wood. I’ve had a leaf I took from the property and wanted to incorporate it somehow. I may add it to it to headstock. If I don’t, I still enjoyed this build, and the knobs were extra special, I may have to get a branch and make some for myself. Thank you for sharing this.
back of headstock per chance may be a nice shy detail
@@vitorstreetboys I like this idea. How though. Podge? I dont do nitro, could do a clear rattle can, but I wouldnt know how to start
Hello from North Carolina. That is one of the coolest things I have ever seen in my 64 years of being here, with 57 of those years being a guitar player! Now every time I walk outside and all I see is how many guitars I see laying on the ground under my feet as I walk around!! You did a fantastic job making that guitar like you did. I would have never in a million years thought of doing that. I have thought about getting a bunch of those wooden pallets that a lot of places will give them to you just to get rid of them, and most of them are made from oak too which is about as dense and hard as walnut. Maybe one day I'll build another guitar but this time I'll be on my own. May God bless you and your loved ones with a very happy, joyful, and safe new year!!
The look of the leaves and the tone of the guitar is very soothing and warming. What a great idea. I think you should call it "Leaves of Autumn"
Maybe the title of the song should be “From the ground up” because the leaves can from the ground. Something like that. Amazing build. I didn’t think an instrument could be built from dead leaves and wood. Great job.
Leaf Paul is too obvious I guess
Haha I love this!
Les Fall?
This came out so good! You did an amazing job! The tone was really nice as well. I’m blown away!
Tone leaves
That is an absolutely genius idea and amazing build!! I freaking love how it turned out. It sounds just as incredible as it looks. Hmmm, the title of your song... should be "Like Leaves in the Fall"
The wooden knobs are a nice touch 👍
This guitar looks amazing, and I loved the instrumental at the end, very pretty.
This is the best guitar for autumn jazz that I've ever seen!!!
Thank you!
It is a work of art! What pickup did you use in the neck? Thanks!
What an amazing craftsman (yes, craftsman) you are. My father was a prisoner in Flossenburg concentration camp where he worked in the Mezzerschmitt plant making parts for the ME109. That taught him humility i never saw in anyother than my mother who was an amazing knitter to the point that she owned a yarn shop. My Pacame to the United States in 1950. My Parents worked every day in their lives. My Dad never "partied", he was alworking or fixing something. My mom was very ill her whole life. My Parents never complained. My Dad could make anything out of metal, he was a blue collar worker. He started two businesses with my mom. My parents bought the 60 acres I live on today! They were not rich by any means and never collected any handouts. They had jobs and always worked. At school, when other kids did reports about the people they admired the most, athletes or famous celebrities, I admiired my parents. They were my greatest heros. You remind me of them. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!
What a great looking guitar and strangely relaxing to watch the build progress from a bag of leaves to the finished article.
You made me subscribe, thanks :)
Thank you!
This was wonderful. A truly beautiful instrument and art. Thank you.
Thank you!
I think that "morning breeze" is a great name for this theme song, great job!! You're an artist, i love your job! congrats!!
found your comment in garyvee's content. Decided to watch your video. all I can say is you're amazing. your works are masterpiece. I love watching people creating their own crafts while pouring their hearts to it. Anywayyyy, you're also such an inspiration! ♥️
Wow thank you! Garyvee gave me that slap on my face to actually share the things that I do. Have a good one!
love this handmade guitar project build, what an awesome & inspired idea! one of a kind million dollar instrument that looks & sounds like a dream. really like the eureka point in the story when i realized you were gluing layers of leaves on both sides of the original slab. would love to see a leaf axe made with a jag/jazzmaster or a firebird offset style, completely beautiful & unique with so much character. of course leaves are wood, look at where they come from!
Absolutely incredible beautiful guitar sounds great and looks great sounds like a really good jazz guitar you created a very nice piece of art my friend thank you for sharing that with us
Beautiful guitar! Such a clean sound as well. Would call the song Autumn Ballad and the guitar Leavitar (which sound like the Portuguese word levitar - levitate) as its sound made me levitate like a leave :)
This is probably the most satisfying and peaceful build I ever witnessed. Love the soundtrack (maybe call it "walking" since a walk in the woods inspired this build). Tone is beautiful.
Wow. This build is poetry. I love the fact that you chose to route only a neck pickup, it goes so well with the leaf theme. Amazing mate.
I thought the same thing. It would be weird to have a high output humbucker in the bridge on a guitar like this.
Bro will be the first to make a guitar out of water 😅
Beautiful, playable work of art!
Thank you!
Spectacular, and beautiful and ingenious and what a nice guitar. It sounds great and you play well on it. A lot of patience and love went into this . Congratulations on a very creative endeavor.
A visionary artist and a master craftsman all in one. Amazing videos. Thank you!
This is an absolutely awesome👍 masterpiece💥! My respect to the master🙏!!!
What an awesome guitar and a unique artistic way of using leaves, it looks and sounds awesome, mellow and jazzy
Taking the phrase,it’s just crazy enough to work to the next level!!!
Not to mention it sounded great.great job🤘
Now that’s saving resources with a cause. Not only but being creative and making a sick looking instrument
Very well done! I think "i am Groot" is the perfect name for this guitar 😀
the guitar looks lovely, sounds lovely and you play excellent! congratulations to that fantastic piece of art!👍🏻👍🏻
Thanks!
Can there be any difference at all on how it sounds? I mean, it's not acoustic literally, the sound is just strings and sound pickups
"Leaf My Poxy Guitar Alone!!"
Is what I wouldn't be able to resist telling Anyone that goes anywhere near such a stunning piece of hand craftsmanship.
😁💯
I AM SPEECHLESS!! What a Beauty! If I only had enough money I´d buy not only one guitar from you I´d buy them all!!😪👍👍
Supercool build! Sweet sound and very nice intrumental piece!
This is absolutely beautiful ❤
Thank you!
The patience and skill something like this takes is unreal. Mind officially blown. In the time it took him to make that I would have just bought a guitar, had a long and storied musical career, and be telling stories to my grandkids about my glory days.
That is funky, that is cool! The song is great, too! Puts me at ease. Who knew you can make music with the things I hate raking up every fall!
Nice video! I would've coated all the leaves in epoxy first, before stacking them. When cutting the shape of the body, you can see that there are voids in the laminate. Voids aren't beneficial for sustain, so should you do this again, that might be an idea. The leaves would also have more weight so stacking them is easier and faster and you could do everything in one go.
I think the way to do this and avoid... uh voids is to flatten them out just like he did and lay them out in a mold and pour like half an inch or less at a time. Just build it up in layers so the epoxy can sink into all the voids.
I've seen videos of folks using a vacuum to get all the air out of the epoxy mold while still wet.@@nathanjasper512

Haha while the bard is playing the guitar, team gains
+10 damage
+2 healing per second
I cannot say anymore than what others have said just well done sir. You are truly an all around artist.
Another awesome guitar dude!!!!! Great work.
I cant wait to start some resin builds of my own, thanks for the inspiration 😀
Thanks! Yeah have fun with your build!
You should call your composition "Falling Leaves"...... I mean what else would you call it? The guitar is amazing by the way!
I came up with "The Leaves are falling" but then I realized that someone else must have had the same idea ;)
so beautiful! this is a good candidate to a stabilizing process , pinecone guita next? :P
edit: Tittle suggestion : " A quiet Autumn: Falling leaves on my guitar "
That's great! I never really thought Autumn could be a theme of the guitar, because of the color of the leaves.
Pine cone guitar sounds pretty cool :)
I have seen some cool things in my life but I must say this is close to the coolest yet. Simply beautiful man!!!
Brilliant work, Beautiful results.
This is insane 🔥💪
This idea has been running in my mind for a long time, just needed to put it out there.
That's fantastic! I love your determination to turn your thoughts into reality. Bringing something truly unique into the world. As for being the first CZcamsr to make leafs out of a guitar, that's an incredibly creative and innovative idea! You have my full support in pursuing this idea, and I believe your creativity will inspire many others. Keep nurturing your vision, and I'm confident you'll achieve something extraordinary.
Thank you I really appreciate it!
Charlie has added his personal touch at the beginning ;)
That sounds better than I thought. Don’t ‘leave’ it. ;-)
Beautiful build and great tone on that guitar! Very cool.... you've got skills. Thanks for sharing.... and Happy New Year!
Gotta be one of the coolest guitar builds that I've seen, really like how it turned out, keep it up!
Wow, man, it looks absolutely BEAUTIFUL! That's incredible.
That knobs are awesome! Fits perfectly with the idea. I sometimes dream about making guitars and your work inspires me, great build, thanks for sharing!
I'm by no means az expert on building guitars, but by alll due respect to the craftsmanship and the patience, you built a guitar BODY out of mostly resin.
Nevertheless, hats off.
Bro everything was so perfect and the last instrumental just gave a beautiful vibe ❤️🤌🏻🫂 Mesmerizing
Thanks!
Wow, incredible on so many levels. Really well done and sounds phenomenal in the end. Brilliant!!
those leaves, those trees couldn't have imagined this magic.
I don't play guitar and have no interest in building one, yet the Algorithm deemed to place this video in my eye line. I watched every moment, completely transfixed. I even backed up and re-watched a few parts. Bravo!
Talk about local, organic and handmade. xD
DAMN what a BEAUT! You should make a whole series of leaf guitar with leafs from different trees or mixed, would be a banger man!
Thanks! I really want to make another one in a different style and way of doing it.
Wow, you have the patience of a saint. That would have sent me straight to a rubber room, screaming about leaves… but your patience made a beautiful guitar
I really admire your commitment to conserving materials in your craftsmanship.
Charlie made sure there’s literally a bit of his DNA in the guitar.
Beautiful work. You should call that composition "Autumn leaves".
"As above, so below." Those leaves were once out of reach, but now they're always at ground level.
Videos like this are the only thing keeping me from deleting YT from my phone.
Nobody can say anything negative about this.
I really enjoyed this video. You're an artist and look forward to your other videos. Thank you for sharing
Without a doubt, one of the nicest guitars I've ever seen! I love the organic feel and look of this masterpiece. I believe that the body of any guitar, given that it's usually made out of nice wood, should be seen and never be covered with laquer or paint. This one is an example of how you can create a truly natural piece of art! Bravo!!
So close! The air bubbles on the leaves look like dookie but the design is really cool!
Beautiful work!! It looks very imaginative, and sounds great!! You are very creative, and it shows. I'll bet you can make a guitar out of just about anything you can find. Good job here, and many blessings to you!!
That is incredible. Awesome job!!
Great job!! I can’t wait to see your video🔥
Awesome build, and I loved the composition at the end.
Beautiful! Thanks for sharing!
Guitar made of leaves? Instant thumbs up!
Beautiful guitar! I also really enjoyed your nice little piece you played. Great work.
Love the video the guitar sound great good luck keep the videos coming always enjoy them
Beautiful! What a fantastic piece of musical art! Very cool!
Thank you!
We need Fallen leaves played on this guitar
Compliments ! Great work, awesome guitar 👍🎸😊
Sensational in every way!
Perhaps the track should be called “Don’t Leaf Me” :)
The idea is crazy, looks so unique and artistic.
Your skills are more than impressive as well.
But materialwise, leaves turned out to be quite capricious, as far as I can tell. First of all, the structure is really porous and does not look dense (may be wrong there but this is what it looks like from here). And the second issue I noticed - the upper layers of epoxy delaminated a bit here and there. This is probably due to the residual humidity left in the leaves despite the fact they looked so dry.
I apologize if this is not the case, just trying to describe what I see.
The final result looks so nice that I would say it's worth trying to improve the construction and build mk2, 3, ..,n to reach the best this material could possibly provide us with.
Thanks so much for sharing your craftsmanship with us!
Is there a specific reason why the pickup was placed near the neck instead of the bridge? Most of the one pickup guitars have the pickup near the bridge I believe
Man, you are a gift to the luthier craft. Humbled by your patience and methods.
Sounded a lot better than I imagined.
Wow, how interesting. I am amazed by the tone that guitar is giving you. And your playing is brilliant.
beautiful. sound and appearance. so many really great tones of color and texture from the leaves.
Is this the most beautiful guitar I have seen? Thank you, my friend. God Bless you... ☝🏽❤️🙏🏽🕊❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Leaves dancing under the waves of strings
Man, You are really good at this, you take time to make all the details, Very Good 👍
Wonderful, sounds great, looks great and your a great player. I'd of been tempted to make the headstock in the shape of a leaf. Nice job.
Very beautiful built! I don't know if you did it intentionally, but the leaves in the middle layers are gold-ish making a nice contrast with the rest. I also loved the branch control knobs. They fit perfectly!
Great job!
Awesome job, lovely looking instrument and sounds nice too
Now this is freaking amazing!!
Excelent!!! Congratulations!!! 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
What a beautiful sound. Congrats on the build.
All that handwork! Ridiculous! The knobs are my favorite! The level of craftsmanship is outstanding. Nice jazzy bluesy tone. Would love to hear some distortion.
Imagine naming your song in the end autumn leaves and also played in a guitar made out of leaves
that is beautiful and so creative. And you guitar playing is also beautiful.
