Custom Built Nintendo Guitar

[TAYLORD]

That design almost brought a tear to my eye.

[evelasq1]

Who would of thunk it? Playing the NES as a guitar instead of a video game console. Great single coil sound, great reverb and delay effects. Keep it up man. Peace, Flood!

[peteralbat]

And 3:35 dog ftw

[Lusiot]

Tetris!

[rawkgawdez]

i do not use this word often.... EPIC!

[narutokid32123]

the one thing to make it better would be if it actually still worked as an nes with tv-out. controller? pssh. strum to move! try playing super mario THAT way.

[ildaar]

The guitar is very cool, the playing on it sucks

[squiral247]

thank gfod its not a wii....:L :L xD

[HelenaHachechan]

SO COOOOOOOOL!!! YEAHEAHEHAEHAHEAH

[Time2grind420]

This is so freakin awesome!

[metallicspades]

i love that you played N64 game background music

[k0rn26er]

lol awsome guitar

[Bluesneakersneggs]

Very creative! I like your playing! There's just some timing that's off, but that's nothing, you get that in no time.

[axel12121000]

the guitar is fine. but your playing is shit!!!

[MrB4LLS]

@axel12121000 well, lets us see whatcha got? dont just talk crap

[metallicspades]

@axel12121000 who cares, this isnt a video about his playing

[TheOneSax]

The best use of a dead NES, amirite?

[cuntingham54]

That kicks so much balls it kicks gods balls!!!!!

[JK47Tubing]

Holy Sh!T @_@....that's awesome!!!!!

[wickedfkr]

How creative, how awesome, how long did it take?

[FailedMohawkTV]

[nick0mac]

[Jeremyvp]

[JetStorm17277]

[ChewyCervantes]

[mikeygheetarz]

bowsers just chilling on the headstock XD

[mikeygheetarz]

wtf...

[cratus90]

wooooooooooow ahah :D

[zoulet]

sick

[BlueZombie]

Love it man :)

And yes try alternate picking, you'll find using an up-down-up-down motion is much more effective ;)

[SamWBellis]

Try alternate picking you will be awesome...

[WhenWillEmoDie]

make a drum out of an xbox so you can beat the shit out of it

[EvilCracky]

Sick custom guiar

really nice one

[oswa0714006]

You can sell this arround $15000 jajajaj Nice Guitar

[BiologiePassie]

Ohmygawd! this is so brilliant!

[AnDRoIdmAN100]

Yes but... will it play my NES games?

[cahal360]

make a bass.. il buy it and play in my band at a gig. itl be... awesome

[Olekrok]

so only three of the strings works ? looks so because you don't play on the other strings

[luisproduccioneZ]

whats the name of the songs ?

[garrettgerbil13]

@luisproduccioneZ its one of the songs in tetris

[hyde097]

best guitar ever!!!!!!



[JacobSijsma]

Try alternate picking next time please...

[gbgg9409]

I'll take two!

[lllexoduslll]

Respond to this video...  That's neat. Do you have a Super Nintendo guitar?

[Cerberus1030]

Cool guitar & concept, but I agree with the dog's thinking at 3:35.

[strimbert]

Dude thats so fucking awsome!!! keep on ding such thing!

damn i like to have one of these!

[darkjets501]

if i had that thing... i would play super death metal on it XD

[Emjaywidebay]

wtf?!!

[thetruckster1]

This might be the coolest thing I've ever seen. I love the tone and volume knobs.

[halonothing1]

That's a neat guitar mod. How does it sound/feel though? Those pickups don't look incredibly high end. Still, regardless of how it sounds I'd want one none the less.

[bobniculathegreat]

i love the sound!

[cdemanelis]

Forget all the haters. This is youtube. Everyone is so quick to say blah blah blah "i'm so much better" "you suck" ECT. But none of them ever post videos to back it up. (N if they do it's a one in a million) I like it. The guitar is just too sweet, n ur not bad yourself. The only question I have is How di you make the body?

[diprose]

how long did this take etc...?

[97Ahuatzi99]

imagine playing that infront of 1000s of people while playing nintendo video game music

[SwaggaBoy666]

That's cause bc rich guitars are shit!!! Lolcats

[MrBoffom]

nice job dude, very creative, and better tone then my bc rich : /

[cylentshadow]

thats pretty cool.

heres a question 4 everyone.

does anybody know of a fx pedal or anyway to make a guitar have that old school midi game music sound. plz tell if anyone knows of such a thing

k. bye

[therealgtarbeast666]

@cylentshadow umm well i found some pretty close stuff with a pitch shifter, light chorus

[Taiji87]

@cylentshadow

Roland GR-20?

[YTInterview]

Plan to sell that thing?

[Nycewell]

Guitar is awesome! timing is horrendous tho.. also next time maybe try using a humbucker pick up? anyway good job on the guitar. It truly is 1 of a kind.

[Zombie1990]

This is really cool, but you should of used a graphite neck. 

[WalkerMacd393]

please put up a tutorial on how to make one!

[Loading17]

great work man!!



[Theloss52]

Looks cool, now all you need is to work on your time'n. +1 on the metronome idea (@ threehz).

[SLAPCHOPshamwow]

Steve Vai has really changed his look

[psychotic33089]

Sick guitar...really cool -CGC

[animalmoth3r]

it'd be sicker if it played midis haha

[fairypenguin22]

would have been cool to put a super mario level on the fretboard/fingerboard/whatever­itscalled.

[calvinscheuerman]

i build guitars, and this actually kinda confuses me.

how are the neck and headstock cartridge attached? i would think the string tension would snap the plastic. cool guitar though.

[ect301fps]

@calvinscheuerman I'm just making assumptions, but I'm thinking that maybe there is a wooden headstock and the nintendo cartridge is just a cover and maybe filled with something so that the tuning machines can get screwed in more securely without cracking the plastic.

[Pointycrown]

It is funny how people diss the fact that he is not good at guitar but in fact he made a guitar, and also.........HES THE ONE PLAYING IT! and you guys think your good enuff to say that he sucks when you guys can attach a video on how much you suck at guitar and not getting to play the nintendo guitar also

[CaptainHowdy187]

@Pointycrown There's some really pathetic sacks of shit commenting on this video. They're just incredibly jealous of the awesome Nintendo Guitar! They don't have one and couldn't make one if they wanted to and where's video's of them playing awesome guitar? Oh that's right, there is none because they probably don't even play guitar themselves.

[mexicano7771000]

is your dogs ass bald? 3:35

[DylanBStringer91]

That Is Awesome!!! I'm Speechless!!!

[edgeofsins]

Dude. I just so happen to have plenty of old nintendo games and an original nintendo lol. Too bad I am not experienced with guitar making though :(

[frufair]

maybe try some upstrokes next time

[CaptainHowdy187]

@frufair Maybe try making you're own Nintendo Guitar sometime!

[dorkfish94]

Dude. Epic.

[SuckMyTom]

fucking awesome but nes' are rare! you may earn milliions one day XD

[tallgirlsglove]

nice

[sherryjhnsn]

Awesome guitar.

[Zilgath]

Nice guitar, would be cool with a Nintendo controller as headstock though... IMO

[atbsawblade]

killer guitar

[hightone4ever]

Love the guitar Now I just wanna destroy my NES HEHE and the dog is loving the music, he is so happy he is waggin his tail

[ibanezbass671]

3:35 the dog couldn't hang.... nice btw

[sorrow710]

Holy crap! That's an incredible idea.. You could totally get a buck or two for that!

Great job!

(please no that's what she said comments)

[retepwiers47]

i want it. dave should sell me that guitar. seriously ,dave, you should make more i know alot of people who would buy one.

[apathywebcomics]

This is by far..the most awesome guitar I have ever seen in my life. I personally would pimp mine with some zelda and metroid items.

Oh it sounds nice too.

[Nils3OWN]

Nerd

[EDMAN9411]

you do NOT understand the power of NINTENDO

[apathywebcomics]

@Nils3OWN

Your point?

[tigerlala3]

hahaha this is fuckin tight

[ittboyx]

guys. obviously he was still learning.

[IAmSgtPepper]

This guitar is made of win. I'm speechless.

[halo3beta117]

finally i see someone else that use win as a noun

[captlionpants]

hahahahahahahahahahahahaha

[angryfatkid]

That...is...AMAZING. I'm stunned at how well it stays in tune, and the kind of tone you get. VERY impressive. I'd actually pay for you to make me one of those ;) Haha.

[tededface]

What song it is?

[RockenChich]

Tetris theme A.

Awesome guitar btw

[dsanzo]

Wow that guitar is cool. But ever heard about rhythm?

[Pointycrown]

wow, that reply was cool, how you ever heard of shutting the hell up and making a video of you playing a customized guitar put together by a nes system, and actually play better? I did not think so.

[SchecterMat]

hahahaha fucken cool dude

[MrCptGonzo]

Does this guy have any rhythm?

[Ironb3rry]

@MrCptGonzo

Do you know the actual definition of rhythm, or are you just a musically deficient critic who doesn't know what tempo is?

[MrCptGonzo]

I actually know the definition of rhythm.

[CaptainHowdy187]

@MrCptGonzo Do you have a Nintendo Guitar? No? then shut th fuck up!

[MrCptGonzo]

@CaptainHowdy187

Actually...you don't want to hear the answer :D

[esELmauri]

ahahahahahah

[riec0123]

.......Wow. I've seen some awesome shit before; but this blows them all out of the water.

[pokemoneinstein]

Guitar: 500/5

Guitar playing: 2/5

[kiloklo777]

I do

It's cool

[TheGreatGuitarist1]

no it's not cool.

and i know if you should play for some people then you woulden't play on that "thing"

[kiloklo777]

yeah I will

even I have my les Paul

I think thats cool

Imagine all the peolple wandering were you bought it

they all will like to have one

[xXxLAMBOFGOD12xXx]

I wanna play it too, maybe not when I'm playing shows but definitely at home for fun.

[aerosmithisawesome11]

@TheGreatGuitarist1 me, and a lot of other people want to play on that "thing"

[krysvelo]

Que pedo con esto.. estoy cagada d ela risa jajaja

[xxasshediesxx]

ok 4 words.....

I FUCKING WAN ONE!!!!!!

[crebbechi]

man you have to listen to powerglove

[mrtomcrazy]

MAN! THAT SONG IS NOT FROM SOAD!

[mrtomcrazy]

NERD! xD

I'm kidding. That was awesome, man! Love it!

Obs.: I'm a nerd...

[HardKore5250]

Awesome!! How did you do that?

[spoontard]

Amazing guitar. Get someone else to play it next time.

[brandon9271]

bit of a "Rhythm Fail" huh? hehe.. Nice guitar and nice tone though!

[freakfreak12345]

@spoontard Wtf? He plays it just fine.

[eendenmannetje]

@spoontard Dude, relax, he plays fine. He might not be a guitargod, but he has fun playing..

@zappermaster Awesome guitar man :)

[jerstamper1]

@spoontard he played it just fine

[CaptainHowdy187]

@spoontard Why don't YOU make one and upload a video of YOU playing it next time?

[timshadyshow]

I would be interested in buying 2 of those. one to tour with (the stage presence would be awesome) and one for an at home display as an art piece.

[MicahTheBeast]

I just realized I have ALL of the necessary components to build one of these laying in my closet!

*runs to closet and grabs NES, guitar neck, dremel tool, and soldiering gun*

[crickettitties]

i didnt expect it to have nearly the quality of tone that it has. props!

[MrChozo]

Now my playing with power what?

Your != You're

[crickettitties]

shut your fat fucking mouth you tool.

[biggyzoom]

Awesome. So, is that an actual NES for the body or a piece of wood made to look like it. I wouldn't have thought a plastic body would be able to withstand the string tension. Also, how is the neck attached?

[LordLemmysLabs]

Oh my god... I don't even play guitar, but I would learn to just for the soul purpose of using this guitar to play video game themes! THIS IS THE AWESOMEST GUITAR EVER!!

[obusco]

... It's absolutely not from SOAD ! HERETICS !!

[Tano76]

This Zelda song is not from SOAD, dude -_-

[bckinurhead]

bomb

[canadiancastor]

how can he have so little timing

[Zero1216]

am i allowed to watch this much awesome? i dont think i am. ill be right back.

[0rac1e]

The cartridge headstock looks huge and the tuning peg set up with string tree looks awkward. I would have preferred a NES controller for the head stock. Would have allowed for a 3x3 tuning peg set-up, ala Gibson.

[threehz]

good work. now it's time to invest in a metronome...

[threeyears]

This video would have been much better if he actually knew how to play those fucking songs. Why build a Nintendo guitar if you are just going to rape those tunes? It's not like they are hard.

[avalableusername]

hes one of those guys that buys 6 guitars the first month he learned how to play

[CaptainHowdy187]

@threeyears But building the fucking guitar was hard, do you wanna try it?

[davemasterx]

Sorry to be a douche, but rublind is correct, it isn't system of a down, I believe it is actually a band called "Rabbit Joint"

[rublind]

That Zelda song is not by System of aDown. FYI.

[DTa0]

amazing

[tallgirlsglove]

that is freaking cool

[Pustic2]

Looks and sounds great. Can you play a game while you play music?

[blockyimage]

Cool git-fiddle! Now I'm jealous. If I ask nicely will you make one for MY collection? Oh, nice, kind, friendly bro 'o' mine... pleaseeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.... :)

[atbsawblade]

crazzzzy cool i'll take one

[nicoooh]

That string routing on the headstock is wicked!

[psychodelicdragon]

my son will want one for certain!!!!
