Custom builder here. this guy did a good job. A lack of expensive specialty tools forced him to make custom jigs to accomplish specific jobs. The jig for a comp radius was simple and effective. Good problem solving and critical thinking skills as well. A person needs to be Intuitive in this game in order to achieve quality. Not everyone has that. Keep building man.

This is one of the things that I hope to do one day! Right now I just don't have the tools, or the space but might try a Kit Guitar first...

@@72Z15SS most kits are super poor quality. So don’t expect it to be anything amazing. But building is one of the most rewarding things I’ve ever done. It’s great. Get into it if you can. You may look into a makers space in your area if they have one. It’ll have most the tools you need.

Huge respect for this dude not only did he make a fantastic guitar but he plays guitar as well as his luthiery 👍

I liked the fact that you accepted the mistake and turned it into a feature instead of feeling sad. Very nice work!🎉

oh he felt sad, unless he is that kid on the devils hour, Isaac... DOH!!!

The whole color scheme and characteristics are so tasteful… from the binding, to the pickups and hardware selection.

I love the planer mistake. Adds uniqueness and depth to the guitar.

Absolutely phenomenal build. The detail that went into the neck pocket, the tremolo, the pick up cavities, the pick ups, the neck and the body... it's insane! I absolutely love how it sounds too. Freaking amazing tone!

Beautiful job! And a huge respect for your adaptability and your crafting tips!

yes, definately a balcony is what I need in my shop to finish all my projects I need that balcony great job man! I mean it, the precision, the ideas...

Very impressive. This is one of the best build videos I've seen.

Absolutely beautiful looking and sounding guitar. Respect on that build!

The sound is great! Amazing craftsmanship and I love the design, too!!

I'm a neophyte guitar builder, and just finished a jazz bass for my dad....I feel in awe of makers like this fine gentlemen!

Actually can't tell what's more impressive, creating or playing skills of this young man👏👏👏👏🤚👏

You sir, are an artist. A labor of love.

I can easily say I love everything about the video, the process and the final result.

This is so cool!!!! Beautiful work, great problem solving, gorgeous guitar, sounds excellent, and phenomenal playing!!!! My hat's off to you.

brilliant - enough info to see how you worked through the build and all the jigs and techniques you used without ever getting bogged down and the result is just beautiful - thanks for taking the time and effort to record your build and share it with us. I particularly liked your trem stop idea

I love it. Very good job making it not just another strat. It has its own shape and character.

Beautiful & totally original. Love the back of the neck, love the trem stop, love the opposing fret dots locations, love the coil split (best pickup combo ever). Incredible & now I know what I want to do in retirement 🤘🏼

Wow.. that guitar looks absolutely beautiful.. love the white stripes around it.. I just love this guitar! Amazing work!!

Beautiful! I love how you showed your mistakes and make it work for you. I love the Vega trem and your DIY stopper.

Great build! Loved seeing all the jigs and clever problem solving. Thank you for leaving in the mistakes! It's encouraging to know that I'm not the only one that screws things up-and that it can be fixed. Also, excellent playing!

Nice to see you enjoy your efforts at the end! In my eyes , your the “Great Guitar Build off” Champion of 2022! Perseverance, oops’ s , problem solving,Tremendous ! Thanks for Sharing , a total joy!

Your editing style gave this video a weird sense of aggression which was pretty funny. Great build and a fun watch!

Wow! Unbelievable! Start to finish.... crazy good stuff! All the way to the jamm at the end. Tremendous talent. Wonderful.

Amazing work. Loved seeing how you worked through unexpected issues (upper horn, in particular; adding the lines as a graphic flourish to cover the seam line was very clever). And I'm FLOORED by the recessed vibrato system - that is SO cool.

The quickly moving edits are kinda funny, the transition from showcase was legendary, and the playing with different varieties of genres is legendary. Good work. Gorgeous guitar.

Awesome guitar build! I love how you solved the problem with the bindings after you ran it through the planer. I started building a guitar with hand tools some years ago and it is still halfway finished in my shed. This inspires me to continue building. Great work! And a very versatile guitar too! So many different tones, from Pantera to Cyndi Lauper!

Bravo dude... Beautiful Construction focused in things that matter a lot... locking tuners, dual humbackers, bridge with locking option! Really meant for the player. The best I saw in 2022

Great job! Seeing the custom built jigs was awesome.

The guitar was awesome, and guitar playing was even better, nice range of tunes!! Kudos

Looks awesome and sounds great. I particularly like the binding and body colour. It looks like one of a kind and it is!

great job done on the guitar. I praise the whole process of building and customizing it, success on your channel!

One of the best build vids on this platform. So good to watch! Thanks for sharing your amazing talent and skills… and then… Pink Floyd, Mother… Queen, BoRAP… and Heavy Rock. Bloody hell. So good! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻

Sounds beautiful and looks beautiful

Wow! What an incredible job! Excellent sound check too.

That guitar is unique,and for my taste is just gorgeous,great job kid,keep music alive, God bless you 👏👏👍🕊️❤️

At times like these i would love be a rich famous guitarist just to be able to buy this amazing work. Truly beautiful guitar mate

that fingerboard radius jig IS FREAKING GENIUS OMG

Bravo bravo bravo excellent travail ! Excellent son .....je suis en admiration par votre détermination, vous êtes un exemple que c'est possible !!!

The jam at the end was awesome.

Amazing guitar! I love the way you "stitched" together the part of the body that chipped off at the start

The way you created and positioned that neck rout template is absolute genius!!!!!!!!

Production values through the roof! awesome built. the diligence and craftsmanship is unreal ;p

Wow!! amazing build. Trem stop to alt tunings this machine does it all!! beautiful! congrats man!!

Splendiferous job, man!!! It turned out to be a beautiful and versatile instrument. I would proudly play and exhibit that guitar. Kudos, and don't stop building. You have the gift, my friend.

Man you are talented. Very beautiful guitar and tones sound AMAZING. Really got me with the Brian May solo .

Was that remarkable human? I cannot believe I just heard Nick Johnston. Man's a genius. Gorgeous playing and beautiful guitar!

That's impressive! Start to finish.

Amazing workmanship and a nice chord progression!

Its a work of art. Amazing. Simply gorgeous.

Great job, man. Loved all the jigs you came up with! And amazing playing too!

Cool as hell. Thanks dude. No criticisms whatsoever. Just awe in your handy work and condensed filming. I really hope you have a 100 watt amp and blare that puppy out into the world every chance you get.

Love the trem lock. that's a really interesting idea and well executed.

Beautiful job, something to cherish and be proud of.

You are so talented in everything you do. I wish you a very bright future brother ! 👍🙏💕

Very impressive with the build, tone and playing.

love thr guitar build, the guitar pickguard, strat body but difference as its looks

Very well done! Just amazing. Your playing is good too. It looks and sounds just as good as any other guitar out there. Great job!

Superbe ! Et le chanfrein suite au problème de dégauchisseuse donne encore plus de cachet à l'instrument. Et le trem blocker intégré... Juste parfait. BRAVO !

Its good to see a builder who can actually play the guitar well. Ive seen so many who build and they cant play for nothing. How can you build a good guitar but dont know from experience how its supposed to feel?

beautiful job

What a beautiful guitar. Well done! I'm so jealous!!!!

That is so gorgeous!!

beautiful work

Amazing buliding idea and techniques. Very helpfull for my project.

I wasn't expecting the killer playing too! That thing sounds fantastic

realy beautiful work

a labor of love...great job

that metal test was actually nuts dude, sick guitar!

It says something that the one tool (the planer) that most people don't have nearly destroyed your work. This video proves that I have everything in my house to start building, no excuses anymore.

Absolutely Beautiful....and the guitar sounds awesome too...well done

This is inspiring! Excellent job!

Excellent player excellent guitar build, all round excellent

Great build, great playing!! Awesome job.
