Hi David, thanks for you videos, I have a question about the frets: Which is the best fret eight for good playability in classic and flamenco guitars? regards

Glad this showed up on my feed! I do this already but the trick I was missing was the draw plate to make the skewers a more consistent diameter. Will add this to my toolbox. Thanks!

Hello Dave, i love your videos, you explain things very well, easy to understand. Can you please (if its no bother) make a video on how you make the bindings for your guitars? Id love to watch your process of making them and glueing them onto the body. Keep up with the great videos 👍👍👍

Nice work and tips! Thanks for posting.

Locating pins for headstock veneer and fingerboard glue-ups. A rather common practice. I've also seen toothpicks used. Those headstock veneers you're working with are beautiful!

Good morning Dave. So glad your video popped up in my feed. I believe we have a friend in common. Steve nance was my guitar teacher in high school. When I was building my first guitar about 10 years ago, I remember Steve mentioning your name. So glad to see I can follow your work.

Good stuff! I like your homemade dowel plate. Bamboo skewers are so cheap they make great makeshift dowels. I'd be interested in seeing your process for locating the fingerboard with dowels as well. Thanks for sharing!

I guess I know where to go if I need to borrow a C-clamp. Great instructions. I’ve always wondered about laminated sides.

Athens 2004

A nice, clear sounded guitar. I like it.

Simple and effective. David i want bend the sides laterally also is it possible? To give a round shape to the sides.

What thickness was your maple and cedar

Good job David !, I just call you from New York.

Great video David. That is a great idea with the light bulbs as the heating method for the sides compared to an expensive heat blanket.

David...double sides or laminated?

I guess leaving enough of the male V to make a volute is not part of this design. It seems there was a perfect option to make one though. Interesting to see this style. I’ve so far made only one neck and I made it with birds beak joint. Similarly very time consuming, but so pleasing at the end.

Another question: Do you have a technique/jig to provide an additional one or two frets for the high E string. Thanks, Max Bishop

Hi Dave, Really enjoyed this video At the end you sanded relief into the underside of the fingerboard. Can you tell me the dimensions of this relief? Thank again, Max Bishop

Do you use a truss rod?

Felitaciones querido maestro es usted un genio, mas no se si fuera mucha molestia en algun momento hacer una explicación del mango elevado del diapason y el apoyabrazo o algun video de su construcción un Abrazo enorme y muchas felicidades por su canal ques es de mucha ayuda

Excellent, thanks.

Thank you David.. Could you explain of do you make the relief at the fretboard once the guitar is finished?

Excellent David, thanks for the peek into your process.

Gorgeous

Do you use different molds for laminates and sides? Thanks.

A very elegant, but tedious joint to make. Your craftsmanship is superb!

Thanks Dave. Do you make the body smaller for 640 scale or just adjust the location of the bridge and keep the body size the same?

Thank you David!

In the "True" Hauser style.

Oh David, thank you very much! I have been looking for this series for so long ❤

Incredible looking guitar! I’m still pretty early in my guitar journey, but definitely want to reward myself with a custom build once I’ve improved my skill some more. If you don’t mind my asking, what’s the price range for a build like this? Same materials? I currently have a Cordoba gk studio negra as my “growing” guitar. This would be a great “pro level” guitar for me. Thanks!

Hi David, I always watch your instructional videos before I start building, they are super inspiring. I was wondering: do you have a video explaining how to make a Greg Smallman bridge? Greetings, James Daglan

Isso só pode ser pressa. Um serviço porco.

Sonoridade incrível, parabéns 👏👏👏👏

Hey Dave, your building culture is amazing. You built almost any style of guitar. Starting from Hauser style, to Rodriguez to Smallman and now double top. So, my curiosity is, if you were a concert guitar player, and you had to choose just one guitar, which guitar would you choose to perform? 😅

Beautiful guitar. Congratulations. The finish looks amazing, could you talk more about your finishing process, maybe the subject of another video?

The audio level was quite low, but the sound of the guitar was still pretty amazing. She's a looker!

Gorgeous guitar. 👏

Hello David, how tall is a lattice guitar bridge? Thanks !

Thanks for the video David. The numbers are worn off of my feeler gauges so I need some new ones as I liked the way you used them in the video. Nothing like the feeling of going too far with the files. Have you made a video on how you prepare the fingerboard and cut the fret slots?

Excellent. Englishman here, self taught in Oktaxorthia Bazouki (I have no Greek script to type in as yet).. A beautiful example of guitar. Top quality. I taught myself the Greek language fairly well over the last 5 years or so. This man was brilliant. God willing he still lives x

Meu amigo muito bom eu sou do Brasil

My friend very good thank you a from Brasil

I would also like to find a source for white veneers. I do make binding/purfling but I end up using maple instead of a true white. Also, I haven't found a good source for long pieces of ebony for binding.

That's a nice, simple, and inexpensive project. I see it could somewhat easily be scaled for instruments that don't need a rest that tall - electrics, ukuleles, banjos, etc... I'll keep this in mind when I need a neck rest for one of my non "normal" guitars. Thanks for sharing!

Ο Γιώργος Σακελλαρίου πρέπει να είναι σήμερα 35-40 έτη μεγαλύτερος από ότι στο βίντεο. Ήταν και είναι απίστευτα καλός. Δάσκαλος. Όπως και ο Ευάγγελος Ασημακόπουλος (και η σύζυγός του Ζωή είναι εξαιρετική), είναι οι κορυφαίοι του είδους στον κόσμο.

Fabulous guitar sound. Great projection, quick response, yet balanced all the way through.

sounds fantastic. love those tuners!
