Butcher Block Cherry & Walnut Guitar

[@JosH-lu1dy]

Badass guitar! For a first time that is EPIC

[@michaelrussell9890]

Awesome buddy think you did a great job!!!

[@jmess9012]

Looks and sounds awesome! Being I suck at guitar and am a Bassist. Building a bass is definitely on my Bucket build list!

[@MeansWoodshop]

Yes! You should totally do it, only be careful, it’s definitely a drug and you’ll be addicted and not wanna work on anything else. And I love some good bass playing, but I pretty much suck at guitar too, I need to get Adam to demo it

You have some of the greatest cats ever lol. You can tell a lot of hard work and love went into that guitar. I can’t imagine how long it took to get the contour on the front just right. The cherry butcher block look also reminds me of a bowling alley look. Loved the longer video too.

[@MeansWoodshop]

Oh man, doing that contour was tough! Every time I thought I had it I had to work on it some more. It could still be a little better honestly. And man, those cats. No amount of work or power tools phases them a bit. They always wanna be right up in my business.

Awesome build. So much work! Puck rules! He is such a honey badger. (Search on YT) I love how you play your creations at the end of your vids. You need more subs. Love your stuff.

[@MeansWoodshop]

Thank you! Puck is super cute, but man I wish he’d be willing to give me some space while I’m working! And I’m for sure not the best guitar player, but I can’t build it and leave y’all hanging on the sound. Thanks for the appreciation!

Hey would this work if I just bought butcher block and made it?

[@guitarzleo]

Beautiful guitar build! Great job. Just a question, since you had such a nice big piece of cherry, enough to use as a solid top for the body, why did you cut in stripes and glued them together? You intented to create that "cutting board" look? Keep rockin'!

[@MeansWoodshop]

Good question! And thank you! It was almost wide enough for a top, but not quite. Either way, the cutting board look was the desired effect for the top. I was looking at the bottom of a trailer at my job, and it was made in the “butcher block” style and I thought it would make a really cool look for a guitar. You keep rockin’ as well!

Your neck pickup is in backwards. Good looking guitar though. 👍

[@captain4420]

Also I have a big piece of butcher block can I just cut my guitar out of that?

[@MeansWoodshop]

I don’t see why not, as long as there’s enough room to cut it out on there.

[@captain4420]

Okay thank you.
