  • This is a timelapse of a complete build of a tele style guitar made from reclaimed wood. This is one in a series of three hand built for The Old Town School of Folk Music. The wood came from an old support column that came out of the 909 W. Armitage building in Chicago. Hence the 909 inlay at the 9th fret. The column was old growth Douglas Fir. The building was built in 1896 and the patina on the column was evidence of that. The three guitars were auctioned off for a fundraiser for the school.
    The body and neck are made from the Douglas Fir column and the pickguard and fingerboard are made from oak trim that also came from the building. The pickups are made by Fralin.
    All music in this video was recorded with this guitar.

    This is one of those videos that you have to wonder why people down vote. Is it jealousy? It has to be jealousy. The guy has made a beautiful guitar out of some crap wood and has done a absolutely masterful job.
    Don't listen to the downvoters or the negative trolls. Do what you love to do and that's all that matters

      Actually you can make electric guitar out of almost any type of wood and it does not make that much of a difference in tone. If you have tools for every specific part on the guitar it is not that hard to build an electric guitar.

      @@lukasberger1997 I'm almost in the assembly stage of building my first electric guitar! it's an old piece of reclaimed barn wood. the process has been challenging, but CZcams has been an amazing resource!! I bought a neck as I don't feel like I need to overwhelm my self on my 1st build, but that's going to be a challenge in the future!

    That is an amazing looking and sounding guitar. This is something I have always wanted to do but lack the tools and the skills to make it happen. That's why I enjoy watching videos like this one. To watch someone take reclaimed wood and turn it into such a wonderful looking guitar never gets boring.

    What a beautiful, satisfying undertaking. Just lovely.
    I have to say, the reclaimed wood is both beautiful and heartwarming. Just watched another build, and when the guy pulled out these big planks of ebony it made me sad as hell. I could just see the rare and precious trees that were felled to supply that industry.
    I've been to Africa and seen the dwindling, depleted forests, as big trucks haul more and more rare tree trunks down the road for foreign export.
    Keep it up, mate.

    I'm not sure what some of you think he had great tools . I've been a woodworker for almost 40 yrs. And have seen videos of guys making guitars with dedicated tools and machines, he is doing this with some old tools, granted old but reliable. My only gripe is I wouldn't use that reclaimed wood. Your putting alot of work into the guitar but if you didnt watch the video you'd think it was someone's old guitar. I love wood with character. Great work dude.

      I was planning a scratch build and realized I was in over my head. I bought a parts kit and made a guitar that way instead. I learned so much from materials needed to the final set up, including fret dressing. Now I'm back to planning that scratch build. Parts kit was a great learning experience.

    I think I want to try that. I wonder if harbor freight had the tools. This guy really knows his stuff. I think the real may come into play with setting the intonation.
