How To Make An Acoustic Guitar Ep. 43 (Gluing On The Neck)

[@Sea_Jay]

One day when I hit the lottery... I'm going to commision a Diftwood Guitar. Everything you build is a work of art and superb craftsmanship.

[@transmathematica]

But if Chris wins the lottery, he might retire!

[@chriswillmanmusic]

He’s a master ❤

[@life17is02music91]

Everything are on the little details and man you’re doing an amazing job to show how to do everything carefully et properly!! Nice to see you create dreams comes true 🙂

[@kapstersmusic]

Very cool to see it taking its final shape. Thanks for sharing these videos. Wish there was some way I could afford one of these one of a kind works of art!

[@jasonmiles8974]

Looking good! Getting close to the finish line.

[@brianogrady7900]

Hi always astonished at your attention to detail that’s why your guitars are superb

[@rosbyduhart5884]

I can't wait to hear it!

[@tonyhunt4250]

Man I can't wait to hear this! The anticipation is crazy.

[@renegadegl]

I hope Helene isn't too destructive over there. Good luck and be safe!

[@geamax1]

good stuff guys, main reason I started following your channel was this build.

[@petedazer3381]

Very beautiful guitar!

[@FirstMM]

I expect that you'll be glad when this series is done, but I gotta say I will miss seeing this beautiful instrument coming together every month or so... I need a new acoustic so I'm gonna get one built, but I am definitely going to do a follow along of this series to build my own as well. Watch out, rabbit hole, here I come!

[@leelossi1257]

great video! love the background music Chris.....guitar fingerpicking would be great too

[@ADFinlayson]

Last few builds I've done with this style mortice and tenon, I haven't even bothered glueing down the fretboard extension, there is absolutely no need if the fretboard and the plane to the is straight IMO. Guitar is looking lush BTW, I want one.

[@johngriswold2213]

If you get the fit right...;)

[@evertthebassist]

I was just wondering, for interest sake. What happened to the Woodstock project? All with mad respect. I have learned a lot from you guys and thank you for the content!

[@CatherineKF]

I’ve been wondering the same. 😊 loving the content.

[@likeakite]

Nice !

[@jaypaulson5181]

Love the work; and, at 8:22 “it’s not rocket surgery”… thanks for reminding us that you’re human!

[@johngriswold2213]

Another great video! I'm doing bolt on necks with the bolt down neck extension but if you are gluing your fingerboard down it is very important NOT to use Titebond III, which has the highest heat resistance and might be a nightmare to remove for a neck reset;)

[@architypeone8646]

Would be interested to hear your thoughts on dovetail joined necks vs bolted on necks.

[@jonahguitarguy]

Hey are you guys doing ok after the hurricane? Hope you weren't in its path.

[@davidedwards7172]

This maybe a bad time but your hair looks amazing.

😂😂😂

[@dalgguitars]

Such a pretty thing. (The Guitar)

[@BigJawnMize]

We are only a couple episodes away from Chris shaving his head to weave the stings out of his hair. Driftwood goes the extra mile.

[@smandez2023]

Chris walks into a barbershop: "What kind of cut are you looking for?" Chris: the "Founding Father". Just kidding of course Chris. Your guitars and hair are amazing! 😆❤

[@DriftwoodGuitars]

Pretty much!

[@MakewithJosh]

Lol… “it’s not rocket surgery”, I’m going to use that 😂

[@johngriswold2213]

First quote I heard was from Karl Malone (The Mailman, UT Jazz) in the early '90s;)

[@petersheely7246]

[@johnjlong]

I see that you used Titebond original glue instead of the LMI Instrument glue. Since LMI is no longer in business, have you run out of it? If so, have you heard that the "WilsonArt 30 Yellow Wood Glue" (which you can buy on home depot online Model# WA-LOKWELDWOODGLUE1PT) is the same as the LMI Instrument glue? I read somewhere that it's the same formula (they were the contract manufacturer for LMI) and it even glows under a black light. Just curious if you're familiar with this PVA glue at all? Now that LMI isn't in business, I figured I'd have to just use titebond, but if it is true that the LMI and WA are the same, I'd be interested in trying it.

[@DriftwoodGuitars]

I’ll look into that for sure! Thanks for the tip!

[@johnjlong]

@@DriftwoodGuitarsthank you for all of the videos!!

[@dudemanismadcool]

You might have the fastest growing hair in human existence.

[@picksalot1]

Why not glue the bridge first, so when gluing on the neck you can make sure it has the perfect neck angle and alignment? 🤷

[@DriftwoodGuitars]

You’ll see in the next episode

@@DriftwoodGuitars ok thanks, it wasn't at all offensive, it must be KZbin I've had a few lately on different channels so I must be triggering their al-bore-rhythm some how?

Please maker reviews of cheap guitars, show us how bad they are. Fuitars under $200 like yamaha, yamaha, fender, Cort, Kepma

[@tranquilitybase6417]

So when you finish this guitar you finally get a haircut?
