Recently I have just been buying bad second hand guitars on gumtree and pulling them apart instead of the diy kits because usually it costs less and usually I pay around $50-$70 (Aud) for them second hand and sometimes they have a nice finish I want to keep, but otherwise I just sand it off. Also, if they are a bit older, they are a cheep and easy way to make a guitar with a rosewood fretboard. Your vids are great thx

I would recommend to everyone - build a guitar instead of spending a $1000 at the big name guitar stores. Take your time - both my builds took about a month, but just be patient. KZbin has everything you need to know to custom make your dream guitar.

Grayson Adams Well... for sure it’s not a Les Paul!! Nothing wrong with a bolt on neck but immediately that just makes it a guitar vaguely shaped like a Les Paul with a bolt on neck. 🤷🏼‍♂️ Oh... and on your “dream guitar” for $300 quality control issues like those on the binding (which were pretty obvious and significant really) are fine but smaller and easier to solve issues on the low priced $800 Gibsons are a huge issue for people?

Don Palanqueto that’s another thing I would recommend. Get new electronics for sure. I upgraded the pots and switches on mine as well as put Seymour Duncan pickups in. I never actually used the kit pickups so I’m not sure what quality they are. I went into my build with a plan in my head of how I wanted it to look and what I wanted in it. And white Seymour Duncan’s were always on my shopping list. That’s what I mean when I say take your time and do your research. You’re basically making your own signature model guitar. You can make it look and sound literally however you want it to. So figure out what you love as far as sound goes and find the best deals to find that sound. That’s what I would recommend

Question for you. The Rickenbacker 325 guitar was what John Lennon used in the early Beatles music. Trying to get one either requires a lot of money or getting what’s been called a Chinese Rickenbacker or Chickenbacker. The Chinese version I have heard on KZbin seems to have a various attempts of quality. So my evil thought for you is this. Have you ever thought about doing a clone of a 325 by using a Stratocaster body, Rickenbacker pickups, and a short scale neck using Pyramid Strings. Plus also doing the same wiring as the original one had. That would give those who would like to have similar to a Rickenbacker scale wise and possibly similar tone due to the Toaster pickups. It would be very unique guitar too. :) Love your videos and would love to see you do a gun video using an m1 carbine to test.

Creme Jockey he wired in the killswitch because the pickups didn't have separate volume controls, the guitar had only master volume and tone dials, and he used those other routed holes to put in coil tapping switches

I just got my kit from the fretwire, I’m doing a similar build, but I’m just doing basic les Paul wiring with the kill switch, no coil split or anything, in the future i might change things tho, I also got the kit that has a set neck and splayed maple, but the body has seemingly multiple grain directions? I was wondering if I should sand along the tigerstriping or the main dark spalted grain

Cesar Alejandro Barragan Hernandez I don’t know. I would imagine with a non natural color guitar, yellowing isn’t desirable (some people like the look of it as a natural wood guitar ages). So I’d go with a two part clear coat and something specifically that cures with some ductility/elasticity (to stretch with humidity changes in the wood). There are lots of different formulations of two part clear coat that fit that bill. As for whether or not there’s a single stage lacquer that is as UV resistant as two part clear and also flexible... I don’t know. Maybe?

Cool build. Reminds me of the Epi Les Paul Black Beauty I modded somewhat like this. I put a Pearly Gates in the neck and a JB in the bridge. It had the four knobs on the bottom and I changed out the two tone knobs for push-pull pots to split each of the humbuckers to single coil. Man, I wish I still had that guitar. It had to be one of the nicest I ever had.
