Fun facts- if you mean the web, then that was developed by Tim Berners-Lee, an Englishman, working at CERN (you know, the kids who also built the Large Hadron Collider) in Switzerland. And if you're using Wifi- John O'Sullivan (Australian). All the Americans developed was TCP/IP, how to monetize it and how to flood it with outrage and substitute opinion for fact. So enjoy that week tasteless beer in your rusting unreliable pickup, and keep smoking that firecracker- you'll get to the end soon enough! ;-)

Additionally, you must have a woodworking machinery because if you just have a hammer and basic handsaw and a drill for home use. Nobody build a guitar from a simple board with home tools. Just the guitar hardware and electronics is about US$200, also finish and glue. The fingerboard is at least US$30 cheapest in eBay from Chinese manufacture. That is bull manure for saying US$30. I would pay him 30 bucks for that guitar and I believe this guy would sell me for that. Just Bull Manure

Exactly. If you have all the tools and expertise to build a guitar plus you have wood for free or cheap then you can do it for 30. Still the pickups bridge and strings were not there which were later bought.

Most of his tools he used are pretty basic for most men that enjoy things like playing guitar. Besides a planer, which I do have but you really don't need for this. I feel like a router is borderline considered a basic tool but if not harbor freight sells them for $30 & works fine

She came in and sat down as you were doing the voice over for the Aussie, and we laughed so hard. Totally hillarious! Needless to say, we watched the whole vid. You did a super job Dan.

OMG that voice over was FANTASTIC, I almost peed myself laughing. Absolutely the best part of the video!!!
Really nice video Dan. I've built similar bodies using what I call the "Clamshell" technique, which is using two pieces of wood for the top and back with no middle piece. I just route out the insides and glue them together and cut the the shape on a band saw. Works well for me.

Do you think it would work pallet wood? And just the part of the pallet wood in the middle for the block?
I've heard of folks looking all over for good wood to build guitars out of. I am about to post probably the most awesome source that I found, a thrift shop like the salvation army, I can buy an entire head board and foot board for 6 bucks. The posts can be used for necks and the actual head and foot boards can be used as a body, the only issue I have found is these are usually 3/4 inch thick so they have to be glued on top of one another which gets you to 1 1/2 inch thickness so it will need a cap of 1/4 inch thick for most guitars like a strat, tele, music man, jackson, ibanez etc. 1 3/4 is pretty standard for most a lot of guitars out there, however if making a hard tail version you can get away with just the 1 1/2 inch thickness. You can grab a chair or two as well and use the seat. While it is hard to tell what type of wood it is you can at least somewhat test for hardness by pressing your fingernail into an area of the wood, if it dents it is soft if not it is hard, the two I got was maple and birch. Right now I am working on my second body and its not that hard just tedious. The first build was a Squire bullet strat body to replace the plywood one, it sounds better than my USA made strat (squire necks are made really well) which may be due to having fender single coils rather than stock squire ones. The best tools to have when doing this type of work are: Rubber mallet (I use this to drive a carving chisel lightly in tight areas.)Belt sander and yes the cheap one worksrouter sharp chiselsforstner bitsfiles and rasps straight edgea tool for fine measurements (I use a digital caliper)long and short drill bits This is the tools I used which I already had. It can be done without automated tools it just takes longer.
Hey, i did that thing routing one pickup to another output myself one time. It's probably the only way to use a saggy vintage fuzz and a tighter overdrive in parallel, because the second pickup is not affected by the low input impedance of the fuzz (-face, for exaple)! This opens up a whole new world of sounds, really fun to play with! ;)
Dude, that was the funniest video I've seen in years! Your narration cracked me up.

"without gloves or ear protection" i dunno what kind of bandsaw you use, but they usually arent that loud, and gloves would actually be a bad idea when it comes to woodworking
Nice build and a hilarious voice over. Even though I'm not a great fan of the "Reclaimed Wood" look, the body seems really solid and your additions gave a terrific tone. Brilliant Mate!
You guys are awesome...my son is autistic and LOVE'S music of all kinds...I play guitar (not as good or as often as I use too)but he and my daughter wont let me put it away when my fingers have had enough...lol...thank you so much for the video and donating to autism awareness...it is definitely something that the public needs to be more aware of....and every little bit helps😀👍

Just a woodworking tip for that face glue up and the ammo Dan. Great idea, but it still slid. Adding some salt on top of the glue before you join the pieces together will basically eliminate that slide. You're welcome and great build regardless. Gotta go into how you wired those pickups sometime because that is some awesome control.
The whole project and video is non stop awesome! Great work

Looks great but you should run the strings UNDER the front bar of the bigsby so it angles up to the bridge. Itll probably take care of any bridge issues you had.
@GunsandGuitars
5 жыл бұрын
I thought that angle would be a little too aggressive. After I strung it this way I cut the strings too short to go under the roller bar or else I would’ve tried that. I just didn’t want to open another pack of strings lol

@@GunsandGuitars you want just that! the "agressive angle" will cure any issues you'd might run into with that trem/bridge combination! i am a pensioner by now but yoused to build and repair guitars and stringed instruments for a livin' . trust my words. change the way you stringed the guitar and you will notice a sometimes quite drastic change of the sound the instrument has. this is a direct consequence to the increase of pressure the string uses on the saddle. in principle: the more pressure, the better. apart from this, your build looks nice and beautyful and it sounds ok to me. it is not possible to jugde something you can not hear.......i would love to hear this instrument in a live situation and play it as well cause that would be the only way to really say/find out how an instrument sounds. youtube is bad soundwise and does not help much in finding out how an instrument sounds. the surface finish you did looks quite nice as well! have you ever tried out shellack? this i would recommend to you. almos all violins have been treated that way for centuries.... keep on keeping on, dear fellow! you do have a lot of talent!
Wasn't expecting it to be so funny. Great job!
ahahahaha you are a real Aussie Maaaate !! super enjoyed watching this video! buy the way the guitar looks awesome!
voiceover was AMAZING almost choked on the 'but i use ketchup'. edit: OMG please make more of these this was hilarious 'i have like 5 routers lying around but for some reason for the neck joint ill use a chisel'
I'm also from Australia and loved your video! I always thought that the bigsby tremelo system had the strings go under the first roller, but maybe only because I'm from "down under". Ha Ha.
This video is old as hell but your idea for stereo output from two pickups is just completely genius.

Try the WIlkinson roller bridge next time you're in the market for a cheap roller bridge. They're rock solid, and only cost about 20 bucks. A big plus to them is that you can adjust the radius by cutting little shims out of an aluminum can and placing them under the saddles. They've been my go to roller bridge for years now.

I have a friend named Sean Dollar and he spells his name $ean. I had watched an old spinal tap vid where they had the double neck bass shaped like a dollar sign. This vid has inspired me to go either pick up a clapped out p-bass and a clapped out jazz bass and make a double neck dollar designed bass or pick up a couple of kit bases and put my retired fathers wood working skills to use creating my own version of that bass. Thank you for the inspiration
