Not too long ago I started learning to play the guitar. And of course, ever since I also started contemplating to build my own guitar. So far I was pretty overwhelmed by how much specialty tools are needed for the different tasks. But since I also managed to open a Capri Sun from the top once, you finally gave me the confidence to also start planning my first guitar build. Thanks for that. Great video as always. PS: The guitar looks awesome.

@@dt2419 You can make fret cutters. It's literally just an end cutteing pliers that's had the jaws flattened. Certain tools are indeed specific to luthiery that you can't find in big box stores. Single cut files is a good example (for filing down fret edges and leveling the frets), triangle files with rounded edges to avoid damaging the fret board. But you can build from basic hand tools, it just takes longer. Gauged nut and bridge files (specific to the string size you choose)

A great tip for anyone pondering to take such adventure is to try and do progressively more complex repairs on affordable guitars. For the last 2 years or so, I've already gutted and soldered whole new electronics for one of my electrics, done many setups from my own guitars to friends' and some I've bought and resold, installed guitar nuts and, more recently and fairly more interesting, glued a neck scarf joint back together and replaced a classical guitar wooden bridge whose original cheap composite one had unglued itself. This sort of small jobs really give you a feel how everything comes together and the big difference small details make on the whole instrument. Some day, I hope, I'll have the experience to properly try and build my own guitar.
@acoffeewithsatan
@acoffeewithsatan 4 жыл бұрын
As a final note, affordable guitars offer a great template because you can easily get your hands on them, they're not such a valuable or rare item that it would cause too big of a loss if the repair turns out flawed or straight up breaks the instrument even more, plus many of these would otherwise be thrown away or sit around unused, and some hours put into it will also give it a new life, even if it's not luthier-grade work.

Thanks for a great video. One suggestion: since guitar nuts are usually made of bone or plastic, they eventually wear out (the slots get lower) and need to be replaced. Using CA glue means it will be hard to get the nut out without taking some wood with it. A tight fit (looks like you achieved that), a small dab of wood glue, and string tension will be enough to hold the nut in place. When it's time to replace the nut you'll be glad you used wood glue.

@lohikarmi235 4 жыл бұрын
wood glue can actually be a bad idea for glueing in a nut depending on the strength of the glue. In most cases just a minimal dab of CA glue is enough to keep the nut from sliding and when replacing it it's just a matter of carefully lifting it with screwdriver to break it free. I've never had the nut pocket break on me while doing it that way

@RyanPullin I think this is it, when i removed the nut on my fender american there didnt seem to be anything but some kind of thin residue on the one side of the nut, facing the bridge, like it was a sticker almost, or a line of thin glue/shellac but nothing on the bottom or other side of the nut or cavity to indicate any sort of adhesive.

what a flashback you just took me through. as a soon to be graduating senior in 1980, I decided to "just wing that mother" and hand build a flying V design (slightly offset upper to lower end longer) with a strat style neck. I literally had no idea what I was getting into, nor knowledge as to how it would turn out. I used mahogany body and maple based neck. The guitar turned our great and I played it for years until I eventually gave it to the eldest child of my parents neighbors. about the only thing I did differently was that I preset the wiring channels within the layered body, thus producing a clean front and rear with just the wood to show. Great memories, and great video......

Great video. Just a little tip, make (or buy) the frets radius a little smaller than the fretboard's. The fret moving laterally helps in locking it into the wood. You can also put a little bit of glue to fill any gap beneath them

Loved how you embraced the cracks for the face.. I REALLY love the grain running up the fretboard.. i was equally anxious and hypnotized while you were hand sawing those fret slots.. i cant imagine putting all that work in and realizing once i played it that the pitch is off for one fret.... playing that thing the first time must have been the most satisfying playing experience ever.. excellent job

Love some of the tips I’m gonna be stealing from this, questions: Did you ground the electronics to the bridge? What pickups are these? (Brand and series) Could you play some clean chords to hear the True Tone of the combined parts and wood? Lastly, how did that sawdust in the CA under the frets work out? Because getting a complete bond without gaps or weaknesses is crucial to sustain and tone.

KarlKnowsMinecraft use a printed template of whatever body shape you’re making and trace onto some thin plywood. Trace the plywood template onto whatever tonewood you’ve selected for the project. Use the bandsaw for any major body cuts. Use the sander for finer smoothing and shaping. Then, use the drill press for the pots, switch holes, and a forstner bit for the neck pocket. The chisel isn’t entirely necessary, but I used it to make sure the neck pocket fit properly. Use the router for making the control and pickup cavities. I bought a neck online. I recommend sanding to a pretty high grit personally, but sanding and sealing is up to you. I hope this was helpful

Slightly over radius the fret wire so that when you tap down in the middle of the fret it generates an outward/sideways movement at the edges I can give you more pointers if you like, but...

Alrighty I'm inspired to do this! I just planted an oak sapling, give it 30-40 years to grow and I'll be able to harvest wood off of it. Then I'll start making it!

Should try using a floating, double-locking tremolo like the Floyd Rose. It might take a few days to get used to it, but after that you'll never want to use normal tremolo.

Chris!! Can you please make a SketchUp tutorial?? You have hands down the best plans, skills and animations compared to any other woodworker I have seen. Huge fan of your designs and work you produce! You're going places.

Please go into detail about the electronivs next time. It can make or break a guitar depending on wether you use cheap components or a noisy circuit and it would be nice to know what you went with. truss rod isn't used because of temperature changes. It's there to counteract the strings trying to bend the neck in. Also if you can I recommend fish glue or Hyde glue instead of super glue so you can remove part for repair in the years to come
