Full Acoustic Guitar Build From Scratch - Koa and Sinker Redwood - Workshop ASMR - JKM Guitars

[@edwardmukisa-u5k]

Such a beautiful instrument.

[@tonycampos1082]

Good job. I like the bridge design. It's the kind that doesn't pierce the soundboard.

[@Ninoy2059]

What a beautiful Guitar. The sound was so crisp. Amazing. Thank you for sharing your skills with the rest of us.

[@JKM_Guitars]

Glad you liked it!

[@kevindoran7007]

Fantastic to see this great guitar finally finished and played, sounds great, beautiful song 👍🏻

[@nickyoung3516]

A beautiful instrument made with great skill, respect, taste and love.

[@chrisclarke3670]

Great looking and sounding guitar. Loved watching the process.

[@Fabiano-cd1sr]

Beautiful

[@claytonlevibrown]

I watched a bunch of videos about guitar builders, I like this one and the sound of the guitar.

[@СергейДенисов-и8т]

Красивая гитара! Звучит очень ярко, прозрачно, разборчиво, насыщенно и обладает продолжительным сустейном. Спасибо, Мастер за достаточно подробное видео как Вы с любовью к своему делу относитесь и вкладываете частичку своей души в изготовление инструментов!

[@JKM_Guitars]

Thanks you for the kind words, every guitar is built with a lot of care and attention to make it as good as I possibly can!

[@fw1421]

I’ve watched a lot of guitar build videos and I’ve never seen anyone put in such attention to detail. Definitely not a production guitar maker. I can’t imagine what the cost of having a guitar made by him would be. Absolutely gorgeous instrument.

[@JKM_Guitars]

there's a good collection for sale on my website if you want to take a look! ;)

[@krisrichmond3222]

Nice guitar! love the simple top gluing method too

[@bradhuskers]

It's stunning. And different woods give different tones.

[@jeremyanson8795]

Wow! What a beautiful neck. The concept, design, build and finishing all exceptional, and the end result embodies the effort, craftsmanship and emotional investment in the ptoject. Thank you for sharing it with us.

[@user-r-roy]

Excellent workmanship This guitar is very beautiful. I love it.

Thanks a lot!

beautiful beautiful guitar❤ can't wait to own onw someday soon!

[@Smith944]

i like this method of bracing.

[@joeyoungs8426]

Very nice build. Happy to see others using sinker redwood. I’ve made three classical guitars with it and found it it hit a nice sweet spot. Sort of like cedar but leans a bit towards spruce. It’s sort of a crossover tone wood in my opinion. I’m definitely a fan.

[@higheriam]

Beautiful sound. ❤

[@moesfishing2776]

this is so amazing

[@CMRWoodworks]

Awesome build!

[@philltadman]

work of art

[@Djalmar]

Trabalho incrível! O esmero, o cuidado com os detalhes, o refinamento dos acabamentos, tudo muito agradável de se ver! Gostaria de ter um instrumento feito por você. Isso se tornou um sonho de consumo!

[@JKM_Guitars]

Thanks you for the kind words! I'm sure one day you will have one 😉

[@mikehomner4724]

Just Beautiful! :):)

[@Suealan69]

Great video, great guitar.

[@patberning]

Thank you for such fine work and for sharing it, a great inspiration for amateur luthiers like myself :)

[@JKM_Guitars]

Thanks very much, I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@fazeeztaj1618]

​@@JKM_Guitars dear can you tell me what did you spray with Air Brush??? What chemical or formula was that?

[@dxjxrose]

Did you notice the finish chipping next to the low e saddle.... Drill the hole out spinning the drill in reverse then use a counter sink bit and you will get zero chips.

[@Zanagash]

I would love to know what you are doing when you are tapping on the faces of the guitar, and then reshaping the pieces of wood inside the guitar. What are you looking for in the sound ? What does shipping those pieces do ? I love these videos. I play the guitar and I am not really good at it, but I love it. And I am not a woodworker but I love to watch these kind of video ! AMAZING WORK !

[@guitarquynhon]

Neck so beautiful.

[@jaygraham5554]

Wow what a great , refreshing interview and discussion. As Judy points out there is opposition to even rational discourse on this subject. Sound Money is foundational to a sound capitalistic economy for sure. Opposition to this axiomatic truth is the radical irrational view.

[@marcosalema5098]

Awesome!

[@olsi78]

Nice build, very well done! What kind of finish is it after the first coat (of shellac I think)? Wipe on poly or some kind?

[@JKM_Guitars]

After the shellac wash coat, I use a few coats of stew macs water based clear grain filler before spraying the lacquer

[@nigelhasenbaum]

Its nice to see the Shaper Origin getting some good use. I thought about building some templates that would cut the top out for me as well as the sound hole. Is there a reason why you dont do that and just do it by hand?

[@nigelhasenbaum]

Now that Ive thought about it, its much faster to get just a rough cut from the band saw and then router it off at the end rather than setting up all the tape and what not.

[@JKM_Guitars]

Yes, thats actually the reason I dont use the shaper for that job! It is certainly useful when doing jobs that require accuracy, but sometimes other methods can produce results in a faster time. Also, it saves on shaper tape!

[@nigelhasenbaum]

@@JKM_Guitars I actually use the shaper to build entire necks for guitars to get everything completely accurate, especially the fret board. It all just fits like a glove at the end. Great work youre doing! Im loving the vids!

[@Z3Nzz]

Tuyệt!

[@eddyo6974]

The white paste that he puts on at 27:45, is that grain filler? or what is it?, thank you

[@JKM_Guitars]

That's a clear grain filler applied after a shellac wash coat. The product is from stew mac, and is a water based clear grain filler

[@angedav]

nice build and a beautiful guitar. I like your style. Can I ask what router you use which it is seen at 20:08? Thanks

[@patrickdavis4862]

It’s called a Shaper, owned by Festool’s parent company.

[@JKM_Guitars]

That's the Shaper Origin, it's a hand held CNC machine, I use it for making jigs, fixture head veneer logos, bridges and fingerboards mostly

[@unamoahc]

Божественно!!!👻👻👻

[@samwallden9856]

Beautiful guitar! What material do you use for the black accent on your binding? Thanks!

[@JKM_Guitars]

Its a black veneer, I think its a dyed sycamore, I get it from Maderas Barber in Spain

Beautiful! Do you collaborate with artists?

[@MrCrazyh0rse]

congratulations! a question from a newbie, at minute 27 what grit do you use to sand with the electric sander? thanks, Carlo

[@JKM_Guitars]

I sand to 220 grit, any finer and you can get issues with the lacquer not adhering to the wood properly

What's the lower bout width of your smallest model?

[@JKM_Guitars]

The smallest model I make would be the 460, which has a 380mm lower bout width

[@iksalbaehaki-bx4xx]

nice bruh, can I request build guitar like a Ibanez tod 10n pholyphia

[@TheCrow960]

Wow

[@curtisbelyea3454]

Wow, that both looks and sounds beautiful. Was that first piece you played a nod to the identity of the customer? I'll take silence as confirmation. : )

[@JKM_Guitars]

Haha I wish! But no, it's one of the few piece of music I can play with some moderate skill!

[@curtisbelyea3454]

@@JKM_Guitars Ah, I gotcha. Well, you still do both of those things better than I. Pro tip: next time say "I can neither confirm nor deny". A little mystery can be fun.

[@Andi_dot_official]

What kind of wood do you use?

[@JKM_Guitars]

On this guitar is Sinker Redwood and Koa, but I use a whole range of woods for different instruments for either different sounds or different looks

[@Andi_dot_official]

@@JKM_Guitars I like the pattern. But not in my country there is that kind of wood

[@radioking]

Looks over braced to me especially below the X brace and the pinless bridge is a tone killer.

[@intothematrix151]

the only thing i don't like is the bridge with no pins style.

[@hitchhikerrobert]

No truss rod?

[@KetitikOlosuntoro]

Temporary guitar😂

[@jacobthellamer]

Looks like you can see the hole in the bracing through the sound hole at 31:30.

[@curtisbelyea3454]

You can also see the filler strip at 21:21, etc.

[@JKM_Guitars]

The one part I forgot to film! There's a two way adjustable truss rod installed in the neck with a wooden fillet glued over the top of it to provide the fingerboard with more gluing surface. It can the be used from inside the sound hole.

[@esinsonat675]

truss rod yokmu bu gitarda ? 🤔 where is the 'truss rod' ?..🤔🤐 ..

[@JKM_Guitars]

There is a truss rod (I forgot to film it being installed!) and it is accessible from inside the sound hole

[@sergemeijerink258]

Doesnt it hurt to send them off? Id be having a house full of guitars and poor af... 😂

[@JKM_Guitars]

It's sad to see some go, but receiving a paid invoice sure does take the edge off 😂
