Oak Table Guitar FINALLY Returns after YEARS!

[@ConnorNolanTech]

I've been aching to see this build through to the end for a while now, so I'm real excited to see you get back around to it, Clementine.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for sticking around Connor. I'm pretty stoked to see what it can really do myself. I'll be working on it again in the morning.

[@Niedergauss]

YOOOOOOOOOOOOO AN OAK GUITAR FINALLY LET'S GOOOOOOO STILL BEST MUSIC KZbin CHANNEL RIGHT NOW

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much bro. It should only get better from here. I just almost fully rebuilt the editing computer it's solid state now high ram. Super scootchum 🤣 I have also picked up some cool projects for the future and got some good stuff recorded last summer. 🎸🤠👍

[@HouseOfCouplePuffs]

I’m honored! Thanks for making an update on that rascal. We love what you do! Very inspiring.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Chris. I really appreciate the interest and participation. 🤝

[@HouseOfCouplePuffs]

@@heavymetalATC You’ve got me off my butt and expirmenting. My jazz bass now has a P90 guitar pickup as a “middle”, and just this week, a guitar humbucker as the “neck” PU. No problems with pole spacing! Next up, putting an electret microphone inside the body. I found cheap little pcbs with preamp and mic cheap on a-zon. I want the sound you get when pressing an ear to the body. Probably not practical, but I want to know for myself. Not interested in Piezo at this time. Can’t wait for your next video!

[@AlexSMarie]

So glad to see this beauty back, can't wait to see you play it. Nice job 🤘🤘🤘

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for all the interest and support Alex. I really can't wait to see what it can actually do myself.

[@richardzahumensky5253]

Bravo Brother!❤❤❤❤

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you Richard, I appreciate the kind comment.

[@alaricpaley6865]

We are so back

[@heavymetalATC]

Alaric Thank you so much for all the support and interest you have shown on this channel in the past years. You are a staple of the whole deal at this point. Really bro, thank you. Ah I also watched a documentary or movie a while back and it mentioned a king named Alaric. Apparently it means ruler of everyone in ancient Germanic 👑💪

[@Killovision1]

Oh hell yes! This is a bad ass channel. I’ve only recently been recommended this and am hooked! I’ve been binge watching the hell out of it. Thanks for the awesome content.Keep it real and keep it steady bud. Looking forward to the next one.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Killovision. I am glad you dig the vids. I got a bunch pre recorded last year and I just upgraded my editing computer and picked up some new projects . Big ones 😉 it should be pretty lively around here soon.

[@starcadebandofficial3659]

The king has returned

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching statcade. I am the king of procrastination hahaha 🤣 I'll take that crown 👑 🤣👍

[@youigta]

let's hope we won't have to wait 5 years to hear you play this guitar lol

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching, maybe not? I might get it done in 2 1/2. 🤣🤣🤣

[@wintlock]

ive been waiting for the return of the oak guitar, im excited to see its final form

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching and taking the time to comment GL. I have to say I'm quite ready to see exactly what it'll do myself.

[@commove9615]

Yeeeeees!!! Finally, absolutely love how it turned out, glad you are back! Always very inspiring!

[@tac0_brax]

i was not around when you started this project but i’ve caught up and glad to see it’s getting finished! i’m gonna make some pickups someday thanks to you 🤙

[@peteytwofinger]

What a thrill ! i can only imagine the thrill of seeing it manifested . hats off man. the OAKEY !!

[@cameronjack1095]

Man, this channel is a treasure trove! The guitar is freaking awesome. Any chance of hearing more of that B-roll intro? It sounds so good.

[@touchthesun2448]

I love it... it's got a Tele vibe with the Clementine twist!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching Bob. When I first started to mark out the body I traced a tele and modded the shape from there. So you pretty much nailed it 100%

[@avibank]

Beautiful, well done Clementine!

[@CrypticDawn]

Mate, I never comment but I just wanted to stop by and tell you to keep up the great work. Love the vibe of your vids! All the best to you, Clementine

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you So much CD. I really appreciate the time you took to write such a a kind comment. Truly bro, thanks. 🤝

[@kimcringeson4937]

Freaking awesome man, congatulations!

[@ShiftyQuickly]

It lives!! Great to see it back, Clem!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thanks bro. I appreciate the support.

[@jamesjohanson5675]

this video made my night :) cant wait for the sound demo :)

[@thegrimreefer3185]

Thanks for coming back to this project. It's looking great. You should try Tru Oil gun stock finish on the back of the neck for your next guitar. I've found it to be just about the perfect finish for guitar necks.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you for watching GR. I figured it wasn't right to start showing new builds without finishing the first one. Great tip... I really should try some truoil. 👍

[@cnilecnile6748]

This kind of reminds me of that solid body guitar that Merle Travis had before Leo Fender put out the first production solidbody guitar. BTW, where did you go to school? MIT? NAS Memphis? This has become one of my favorite channels, the educational value of all this is unreal.

[@alioth2021]

I was just thinking about this project last night. Glad to see it all come together. I was suprised to see you skip any sort of pickup foam.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for the interest and participation Aloith. I'm ready to get it tuned in razor sharp and see what it's really like. I will most likely end up putting some foam under the pickups as they need to come up quite a bit.

[@alioth2021]

@heavymetalATC it's a beautiful build. I'm looking forward to the demo.

[@joseislanio8910]

It looks dope! Can't wait to hear a proper demo, after the setup

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you for sticking around Jose. It's been plenty long enough to get it done 🤣 I'm pretty stoked to see what it can actually do myself.

[@barbarianblood2316]

Hell yeah! Great to see you back!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thanks bro!

[@AdamWellsMusic]

Hey! Happy to see this!

[@calebhooper4266]

So glad to see the axe make a return!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you Caleb. I'm about ready to hear it sing.

[@danielmiller2886]

Great stuff as always Clem!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for the kind words Daniel. 🤝

[@StillLivinTheBlues]

That is awesome, man!

[@CleverNameBot13]

Holy crud, that neck pickup(s) sounds fantastic!!! 53 seconds in

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment Sam. I think it's gonna really talk once it gets setup proper and run into some reverb springs and hot glass bottles.

[@germona]

Great job there Clementine.With this pickup setup you have a lot of options for tone control and that could give a unique sound, like no other guitar. Very curious on how she will sounds in the end. Greetings from Belgium.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much germona. Yes it could be wired any number of ways. Bass and treble blend or series parallel switched... Im sure I will try many combinations in the future but for now I think I'll just humbuck the bridge pickups and put them and the p90 on master volumes with a Les Paul switch and no tone control to get it going. I do predict push pulls and toggles coming to the party eventually.

[@faustohernandez3434]

It's alive!!!!!! Thanks, I was really pissed. Now I feel better

[@heavymetalATC]

🤣 Thank you for sticking around and giving her a watch Fausto. Even my mom has been pissed at me for not finishing this series. 🤣 Like really 💯

[@faustohernandez3434]

Oh no, I wasn't mad because of you haha. I had a bad day at work.

[@zloboslav_]

I love how it looks! I wasn't here when this project started, but I'm excited for it now! :) Aren't the pickups a bit low like far away from the strings or is that intentional?

[@heavymetalATC]

Thanks for watching and taking the time to comment zloboslav.. hey are you Slav? My wife is half Polish and she's 8 months pregnant about to pop we are gonna to have us a little squatter on deck. I'f someone was to ask what race is that child? The answer is YES. 🤣🤣🤣 Oh yeah, those pickups are gonna be coming way up probably with foam under and the strings way down. I really don't have to get them super close as they are neodymium and very strong but they definitely ain't high enough now.

[@zloboslav_]

@@heavymetalATCI'm Bulgarian so that's close enough, even though that's not my real name. :) I have 2 adorable little squatters which are great fun when they aren't driving us mad lol. Wishing you good luck and a very happy and healthy baby! :)

[@samizdat113]

"Now where'd I put that sawdust?... Oh yeah. In the drawer with the used toothpicks."

[@heavymetalATC]

Aw naw bro, If I think about that too long I'll start doing it. 🤣

[@JesterUGA]

Oooo a new super sayain video!!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching!!!

[@JesterUGA]

Nothing gets me amped like new beautiful bean footage! But for real, I appreciate your videos for making guitar building/tinkering much more approachable. Lots of people probably get paralyzed by all the options when it comes to guitar and you give the impression that "don't worry, it'll be alright. Try it. If it makes music, great. If not, it's fixable". Thank you!!!

[@ilemraz]

glad the oak guitar is back, the quality of your videos has improved a lot since then! what cameras are you using now?

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much ilemraz. I'm using a cannon iOS T3 with a modern manual lense on the long distance shots and the beauty shots and camera B and close-up macro stuff is newer smartphones. In the past I was either shooting everything on a 20 dollar phone or doing all the macro with cannon and 60s lenses which can look really great but it has to have the perfect lighting. I plan on getting more lights in that shop in the future to use antique SLR lenses again and it should improve even more... Maybe even a better camera A and switch the T3 to camera B?

[@ilemraz]

@@heavymetalATC thats really cool man. by the way, can i ask for you to do this experiment ive been thinking about? what if you shaved down a ceramic bar magnet of a stock pickup to make the magnet weaker? i wondered if you could produce a more alnico-like tone since alnico magnets are already weaker to begin with

[@barbarianblood2316]

My first full build was oak too.

[@heavymetalATC]

What's up barbarian how goes thee bro, that's awesome did you select it on choice or did you just come across some like I did?

[@redneckhacker7196]

i am currently working on a double neck telecaster. both necks are neck through body....

[@heavymetalATC]

Aw bro that sounds awesome. Is it 6 and 12 or double 6???

[@redneckhacker7196]

@@heavymetalATC, its a 6 and 12. each neck gets a single p 90.

[@patrickcrawford5532]

It looks so much like the drawing! So excited. No Dots!

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much Patrick. I'll admit I have been dumbfounded by the similarly at several different occasions along the way. Nope no dots, without those side markers it might as well be fretless for me, no way I could slide up to 14th for a lead run without some kinda markers.

[@hwallen48]

Mr Tine whst would you charge me to make a ( Charlie Christian ) neck pick up? To fit in a Tele! ? If it's possible! ❤Love the channel👍🎶🎵🎸🥁🎺🎷

[@codelicious6590]

Sweet.I love it.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thanks bro.

[@mikeglazier5993]

This is exactly why you save sawdust for years. Im going to make my wife watch this

[@theothertonydutch]

Weird, I thought I left a comment but it seems to have been removed?

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for watching Tony. It must've got caught up from some word combination or something? I'll see if it's held back for review. You been kicking it here for a long while, thanks for sticking around and for all the support.

[@theothertonydutch]

Anytime bud, maybe it's because I put my instagram @ in there? I recall you were on insta too but maybe I don't remember correctly. Just mentioned it would maybe be neat to exchange some design ideas. Don't want nothing from it except shooting the shit on guitar design. @@heavymetalATC

[@ashforbes6152]

thanks again ,jack of all trades mentality👍🤙

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you ash. Yeah, that's the way. I'll wire a breaker box rebuild an engine, roof a building. Whatever I can do myself? Got some pretty cool projects planned around the corner maybe not 5 years 🤣

[@samizdat113]

Hell yeah bro

[@mb102]

Life's horror stories aside I was gonna make a bass and guitar but tossed the giant table out and made ALOT of starter pieces for wooded picks...also very old table.

[@mb102]

I see that the stain and veneer styles where are very similar is what made me stop by and say something. Anyways thank you for you efforts and knowledge sharing

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you for watching and taking the time to write some kind comments MB. You can always start again, keep an eye out on the road sides maybe a dresser or wooden bedframe will randomly present itself to you and say... I am a P-Bass trapped as an art deco nightstand... Set me free!!! 😉👌

[@nah3]

[@heavymetalATC]

Yo dude you was there as soon as my finger raised from the mouse button, 🤣👌 Thank you so much for the interest and support.

[@christianurgese]

Everything is ok but the knobs...

[@larryhenderson8625]

*promo sm* 👀

[@heavymetalATC]

Thanks for watching. 👍

[@Drunken_Hamster]

Really wish I could watch this video but as far as desktop is concerned, KZbin is FUUUUUCCCCKKED right now and has been for the latter half of today.

[@heavymetalATC]

Thank you so much for making a comment. I hope it will clear up for you soon. The upload from my new PC build seemed extra fast today but I didn't try to watch anything on there. It's wild how inconsistent technology can be now days with it so complicated. Seemed like AOL never had a hiccup till someone picked up the phone. 🤣👍

[@Drunken_Hamster]

@@heavymetalATC Found a way to get it working. Glad to see the Mythbuster strung up and breaking in those strings and pickups. And you were DEAD right about that repair being invisible cuz I sure as shit assumed the crack line was that piece of grain you pointed out, lol. Can't wait for the next video! Also, I think my favorite part of the Mythbuster has to be the trick Bigsby+roller setup. That and the finish. Not hating on the pickups, but in the years since you started the project, you've both made and discovered more about pups and pup theory, so the Z coil and hybrid-90 are perhaps a bit "dated" I suppose(but never mind that!). IDK what you're doing (or already did?) for the other electronics, and it's been a while since I deep-dove guitar electronics theory, so I'll hold off on that to see what you cook up. TILL NEXT TIME!
