If you liked this, here's a build video for this guitar's 7-string sibling: kzread.info/dash/bejne/X3-JmKOrcZa7h7A.html

if you count only the sheer physical work that had gone into this build, it had to be a hell of a workout... factor in the amount of actual skill and craftsmanship on top of that... man... massive respect... really a beautiful piece of work ;o) hat's off to you ;o)

really loved this - encouraging to see more hand tool builds doing something that is typically so power-tool dominated.

Sincerely, for what purpose? Is the finished product somehow inferior if power tools were used to speed up the tedium of things like sawing, drilling, or sanding? I'm asking very genuinely.

@@chrispysaid no, just because i primarily use hand tools (they’re cheaper, and it’s easier to not chop off your finger) and when i got interested in building guitars, everybody just uses a power router. it’s just nice to see other people not using a power router so i know i’m crazy for not using one. (if i like guitar building though, i’ll probably get some power tools, like a router and a planer and stuff. im not against them, just didn’t have the money and, like i said, the risk of unfixable injury is SO high.)

@@chrispysaidI’ve been on both sides of this coin. Started building guitars back in the early ‘80s with hand tools. And today I have a shop full of the proper machinery to expedite much of the initial work…..15” planer, jointer, drill press, routers, band and table saws, etc. The carving, shaping the neck, cutting the fret slots, inlay work, etc., are all still done by hand. I feel like I have found the perfect middle.

Brother, this the most impressive thing I’ve seen in guitar building skills and attention to detail. Congratulations on a fantastic build video and final result!

What most people will miss is the years of practice it takes to master handtools to this level. As a wheelwright I know this but I still use machines where possible and applaud such dedication.

You literally built a modern guitar with hand tools only, amazing, it doesn't even look it's only made by a 1 person, literally you can write any professional guitar band name on the guitar then sell it and even the customer wouldn't figure it out.I also saw that you took your time to heart and reply to every comment in this comment section!

I know the look of a headless is odd to most, but it's so refreshing having something light and compact. I've barely touched my "normal" guitars since building this one.

this is a very amazing thing, when many channels show off the sophistication of power tools technology, but you do something so special, making a guitar in a conventional way like this really requires patience, thoroughness and precision at every stage.
