Strat Style Build

This is the entire Custom Stratocaster build edited down to one video. This was almost 400 clips. I've posted the different steps in the previous monthsif you want to see a step in more detail. I've left out small things that wouldn't be too enjoyable to watch like most of the sanding. I hope you enjoy it! Subscribe to see the demo coming soon.

Mid watching .. good God that's beautiful!!!!

Thank you! I wasn’t going to go that red but my son encouraged me to do it. I’m glad he did

Great build! That top is stunning! I'm guessing you're just like me and too impatient and have to finish assembling and play the guitar before polishing it. If you want a couple tips on polishing, I just found out about eagle abrasives super bufflex and super assilex total dry sandpaper. I follow that with menzerna 400 on the red menzerna pad meant to go in a cordless drill. Before I was using cheap 3M and turtlewax products and was always disappointed in my polish. It's cool to see someone else making videos for the love of building a guitar that isn't a big youtube channel focused on views. If you don't mind me asking, what video editing software do you use and would you recommend it? I just finished my first scratch build and want to post it but have zero inclination to start editing the long full build video.

Thanks for the tip on the polishing. You’re correct I have been busy and it’s cool to just get to see it done and play it. As far as editing I use CapCut on my phone because I can edit anywhere. It’s super simple to use. I appreciate you reaching out and talking build. Keep in touch and send me a link when you’re done with yours!

Thanks! Quilted maple is pretty cool figured wood

[@diegoavilavasquez7227]

Hi excelent job. What kind of glue did you use to paste the abs guitar barrel? Sorry my english. Greetings from Chile.

[@Studtguitars]

Thank you! The body, neck and fretboard I use super glue or CA glue. Glueing the quilted maple to the body I use Titebond 3

Откуда появились прорези под звукосниматели и арматуру в верхней деке? 10:07 - Прорезей ещё нет. 15:50 - прорези чудесным образом появились. Пропустили операцию? Почему? Кант так и остался не очищенным. И вообще эта красная "наклейка" с белым кантом абсолютно ни к чему.

[@Studtguitars]

I filmed almost 400 clips to make this video. I filmed those cut outs in the body but forgot to film routing through the maple top I glued on at 3:13 I’m not sure what sticker your talking about

[@old_falc]

@@Studtguitars Отзыв вовсе не отрицательный - ваша работа достойна восхищения. Я только обратил внимание, что из описания процесса выпала операция. PS И, на мой взгляд, если бы оставили переднюю деку в таком же виде, как и заднюю, то гитара выглядела бы богаче и красивее, красная с кантом.

[@Studtguitars]

Okay no problem. I see your point. Thanks for your comments
