What kind of tonesteel are you using?

[@jukejointjack]

I am using these videos to help with my Gibson firebird build

[@janvanaartrijk9673]

I really like Trussard guitars but they are way to expensive for me. I started thinking.....maybe I can build a metal Telecaster myself.... I'm still building up the courage (and the skills) to start with a project like that. Your videos are a big help and a great inspiration. I'm saving up money for my own mig-welding machine. In the meantime I keep watching your video's over and over. Someday there will be a Trussard-like Steelcaster standing in my living room next to a Tony Cochran-like SG. (I assume you know Tony Cochran ?) Thanks again for your great video's !!!

[@quattro4468]

b-but muh toneswoods...

[@gregmize01]

exactly!

[@WV591]

what's the point. the whole idea behind a guitar is character which comes from wood and age. hence thousands for vintage guitars. guitar made out of steel or any metal is as useful as virtual synthesizer guitar or sampler.
