Carbon fiber cloth can be a bitch to work with, that being said this has to be one of the best layups ive ever seen. I had the honor of working for one of the best fiberglassers in the country, JR Franklin. The man had spent 35+ years working with fg and learned a lot of cool tricks, and in my time with him i saw him do incredible things. Most of what we did was on boats but we got to do other odd jobs which were always a unique challenge. He passed recently and ive been watching a lot of your build videos, you remind me a lot of him and i wish you the best. Thank you for sharing your talents with us

I agree, but it isn't that the complaint with most of the carbon acoustics on the market. They lack the warmth & unique characteristics you can get from different kinds of wood. On the plus side the all carbon stuff stays in tune & is super stable Regaurdless of temperature, humidity, or elevation.

Personally, I love how this sounds. Different than wood, but the world can always use different!

Burl will use what he's learned here to make other incredible instruments. What I like about him is that most artists like this wouldn't share such an experimental, rough piece, but he doesn't mind explaining his artistic process and showing off his weird experiments.

The reason it sounds so thin is those huge bracing struts and bridge block. More mass damping = less low end on an acoustic. On "real" (ie, commercial) carbon fiber acoustics, the bracing is far thinner - thinner than most wood acoustics, even, which are far, far, far, far, far, far, far, FAR thinner than those huge honkin' blocks he used! Which isn't to say that what he did was bad - just not up to what people who do this for a living can do.

amazing idea and even more amazing sound! this carbon fiber soundboard has something unique about it, a strange harmonic resonance, quite different from wood. it's very nice to see new ideas and to realize again and again how versatile this six-string instrument actually is.

How about carbon fiber guitar teardown?

I freakin can't wait until you open your custom shop!!

In Highschool I built an acoustic guitar for my senior project. Been quite a while since then haha. I modeled it after a Martin D-18 that my grandfather bought a couple years after getting back from fighting in the Korean war. He served in the marines and got out in 1952. He bought the guitar in 1954, and even though it's 67 years old it still sounds amazing. The one I built had an okay sound but nowhere near the sound you get from a *real* Martin haha. Since then I've made a few more guitars, a couple of Ukulele's, and even built the body for a baby grand piano. I would love to be able to do what you do as you are an amazing artist and craftsman. Keep up the good work man.

I actually think this has a really good country sound. I find a lot of those really twangy acoustics and resonators annoying, but this has the tone while still having a bit more low end so the chord has something to stand on

Sounds great and will probably last a long time haha The playing at the end was beautiful

a little tip for working with cf : keep it wet if you're cutting and sanding. That dust is extremely dangerous to let float around in the air. But an excellent job regardless of the safety issues. Love cf acoustics. They sound so nice.

Sounds great to me. Keep building and playing!

Sounds like a drone open tuning - probably sound killer with a slide.

I found this channel when I first began playing on acoustic wondering if you'll ever do a guitar mod for acoustic. Then two months later I found out they made carbon fiber guitars which is now my goal for my next guitar because it's has become obsession. And now I see this. I'm so excited to see what other carbon acoustic you design next, this was dope.

You made it look easy. Sounds fine. Enjoyed your playing at the end also. Awesome!

The guitar sounds like it should. I wouldn't be afraid to gig with it anywhere! Very nice picking too!

I mean, I'd watch a 2-hour long video from you. Your builds are always so fascinating & engrossing. And I have to say, as someone who expresses their creativity by sewing, this video gave me a great new idea about how to go about cutting fiddly fabric that is easily frayed or warped. I need to go find some painters tape now. If it works how I think it will, it's a total game changer!

2 things on CFRP: Wear a mask when sanding or cutting the material (I guess you do). Since in your case structural integrity is negligible, you can ignore the orientation of your fibers - but to make it look prettier and avoid any folds or creases, you can cut the individual sheets into more smaller pieces, which better fit your mold. Specifically I would have used 2 sheets for the body - one for the back and one for the sides. It would have avoided the creases you are getting at the body sides/ribs.

Im looking at this from two directions. A: A unique guitar build, that looks and sounds great.Only down side was the bolts perhaps even blacked bolts with countersunk heads would work. And B: As some one who uses that method a lot to build large model boats. So I know too well the work that goes into making a good plug. Arms stopped itching yet with the pink foam?

Good to see you have your Safety flip-flops (tm) on. Also - really good experiment. I am sure that cutting down on the thickness and a bit of work with nice bracing would change this tone an awful lot. Would love to see a version 2!

I love the demo. Should put it on Spotify
