How It's Made: Electric Guitar (Part 1)

[jorgevalencia97]

can some one geve me the name of this music background!!! please!!

[iheartnonamejane]

Thumbs up if you know Kylie!!

[chez117]

The only thing i don't like is that when they put the primer, sealer, wood stain, lacquer, it kills the tone of the wood. For best performance of a guitar, just add paint and add some rubbing compound to make it shine.

[jorgevalencia97]

any other video with the same song please.

[jorgevalencia97]

some one knowsthe song from background thast fantastic soud i love it its like electronic music and anbient please help me to find it.

[theorthianguy]

:D Godin! I love my Godins! I have two!

[wzbzbz]

I like how it takes half a year just to make that block of wood.

[link8675309]

all i hear is computer guided machine. gibson goes old fashion, one person cuts the neck and doesnt need refrences. thats why gibson is better it has more of a warm sound

[stkal210]

It's the Godin Guitar Company not a Gibson bullshits

[jorgevalencia97]

i been looking for this song a lot time ago!!!!

[jorgevalencia97]

man i love the music on background!! waths the name?? please!!!

[XeroJager]

Oh, and i'm totally going to be biased, i swear by ibanez, but gibson is pretty damn boss too. If i had to record any sort of rhythm stuff, give me a chunky ol' les paul, but otherwise i'll stick to a prestige neck.

[johnnypk1963]

Gibson is iconic but hardly the best made guitars....please. I have 1 and love it but it's far from the best a true luthier can produce.

[TheBobohj]

haha fools my bass is hand crafted

[sixstringfretter]

Why do they take a board that is the width of a guitar already, cut it, then dry it, then glue it, then dry it again? Why not just use a solid peice of wood? Not only would it be stronger and glueless, but it would eleminate an extra two months of dry time. They all do it, so there must be a good reason. Does anyone know it?

[notsooutcast]

*cough* Glitterati *cough*

[JTNickelz]

@LaMarche7 That was my first year of playing the guitar, the fretboard and the neck were the same thing to me. Sorry to offend you, perfectionist.

[angelite143]

Gibson's the best.. Expensive though

[Jaffet1990]

Gibson is my shit

[coal1987]

Gibson is Best!!

[DutchStratPlayer]

how can you lay frets the whole day without become crazy???

[ZAKxOFxTHExDEAD]

an actual tv show that's useful

[BrickMovieProduction]

Cool machine for the frets

[BournemouthVEVO]

silly how it's made. i wanna know how guitars were made before computer guided technology.

[md2020live]

I've made guitars with fingerboards made from of Bloodwood, and another made out of Ziricote. I've also seen builders use flamed purpleheart and padauk for fretboard material. There is no limit to what wood you can use, however some woods are better than others... Bloodwood for example dulls your tools very quickly.

[Guitar101Dude]

if your clumsy get a maple guitar.

[mickthomsonify]

i use a wood called purple heart for my my guitars. i wish they would make a video to show handmade guitars, the real art work of making guitars. no artist uses a machine to draw his paintings/ sketches. machinery=cheating.

[md2020live]

@mickthomsonify amen! nothing compares to a quality handmade guitar. once you play one, you don't want to go back to CNC'd guitars...

[WampaProductions]

strange i love a good aged maple neck

[myway43]

Got to love those Godin's!

[sabbath994]

@myway43 i got a freeway clasic, and it plays better than my lespaul goldtop

[slashlp118]

thumbs up if you are a guitarist and already knew how this was done

[MrOzMendez]

@slashlp118 never

[MrOzMendez]

How It's Made: Part of an Electric Guitar

[JTNickelz]

@MrOzMendez Part 1 here.

Part 2 in that general direction ->>

Put it together and you have pretty much the whole guitar.

Learn2troll

[MrOzMendez]

@JTNickelz So, you're saying that you're a troll......

[JTNickelz]

@MrOzMendez No, I'm saying that part 1 of a video is just part 1. You said only part of a guitar is being made, but that's because the video isn't exactly finished, as obviously stated by the terms "Part 1" and "Part 2." Your criticism is faulty.

[FacebookChicano]

@OPOCHKA a clamp doesnt need to be modernised at all. what would it do? clamp the wood down 2 seconds faster?

[DUY1337GUITAR]

of course hand made guitars are a lot better :)

[ReebHound]

They're making my schecter hellraiser avenger as we speaK!

[007007688237]

i really kinda wish they would've shown how an electric guitar is made by hand it would've been really helpful for me to make it as a woodwork project

[JMSGuitarz]

@007007688237 Go check Ruokangas Diary.. There u will get some rly good tips : )

[007007688237]

@JMSGuitarz will do

[Pamahana97]

HA! i love this show XD my mom hates it but o well at least i know were what we use everyday is made so

[lH0VA]

@Pamahana97 How can your mom hate it?

[TheEagleOfTheNight]

google godin guitars and click the MUSICIANS FRIEND page, ull c its not that cheap

[animelover7101]

niice

[57msikora]

[foolintherain100]

this might be how to make a guitar, but any guitar where the head is a different piece from the neck (at 2:32) is a really cheap guitar!

[Providenceangle]

@foolintherain100 I bet you they charge a lot for that cheap neck...

[TheKrsman]

how did you get this video

[SilverBullet741]

If you cant tell what brand these guitars are you are STUPID it freakin shows it

[MrShreddyz]

i like my american fender strat its great

[geetarbube]

i have a Godin Freeway Classic and a Seagull M-6 cedar acoustic...they are high-quality, great-sounding, affordable guitars...my Freeway classic has a Start sound for about 400 bucks!

[NortonCherry]

This is how factory guitars are made, but guitars are still handmade in their thousands by luthiers using a very different approach to this. There's a DVD called "A Complete Custom Electric Guitar Build" (and a YouTube clip too) which shows how a guitar is built "by hand"!

[PSIboy66]

yay Godin!!

[Thel3rian]

i thought gibsons are supposed to be hand made >_>

[liberalsocialist353]

it be a godin

[tumuchtym]

nah. Only the heavenly Ibanezez. Ibanez Rawks!!!!!

[Gooshgooshasdqwe123]

@tumuchtym Fender.

[Shrieken213]

@tumuchtym LOL Ibanez is only for shredding

Gibsons are for everything, and sound better than Ibanez.

[JTNickelz]

@Shrieken213 My cat sounds better than Ibanez.

[Shazeen82]

@JTNickelz Whats up with Petruccis Ibanez or Bensons Ibanez?

[JTNickelz]

@Shazeen82 They modify their guitars, don't they? An Ibanez straight from the factory just doesn't sound good.

[iamunnameable]

@JTNickelz I happen to be the proud owner of an Ibanez Ventura electric/acoustic with a bottom cutaway and it is one of the best guitars I've ever owned. I have an Epiphone Les Paul and currently have my eye on 3 Gibson Les Pauls. I have and probably never will modify them other than a string change or a good disassemble-clean-reassemble. I hope that you can understand.

[metachozoite]

@JTNickelz nah all guitars are made equall...a guitar is a guitar...its the person that makes a guitar shine...its a gift of the spirit...(guitar playing is)

[XeroJager]

@Shrieken213 False as shit. You can do anything with any guitar, doesn't matter what it is. As for sounding better? Depends on the hardware/wood the guitar is made with. Gibsons are generally made of mahogany (les paul, flying v, explorer, etc etc) which have good resonance, no doubt, but shit, they are a bit overpriced as balls. I'll stick to a Ibanez RG with some bare knuckle pickups.

[trousien]

they aren't showing gibsons? even epiphones are somewhat handmade but are assembled in other countries

[arsenalfanforlife]

hnadmade as long as they have been touched by human skin

[alexandruszekely]

this are godin

[ronspeck]

Almost all guitars are factory made but some gibsons are hand made, those my friend are Custom Shop Guitars... that's why the customs are so expensive.

[laskt9]

i dont think these are gibsons though

[Songwriter4God]

Duh! You must be so ignorant if you think they are1 They show it! Godin! The stupidity of some Youtubers is amazing. (Not saying your too bad, as you didn't say, like "You're all idiots, it's obviously a Fender." (Fender 'cause it doesn't even have a "G" in it.) You also said that you don't think they're Gibsons, makes you smarter than the rest.)

[laskt9]

wow you must be the smartest person on youtube! i was replying to someone elses comment.

[Songwriter4God]

You phrased it like you were saying you weren't quite sure but didn't 100% think so. You should've just said they're not.

[NEWLOLY32123]

looks like a gibson ES-335

[Songwriter4God]

It's a Godin Pay attention. It shows them putting on the logo, and it goes on the body, not headstock. Gibson puts it on the headstock, like most companies.

[Ibroadcastmyself17]

im so entertained by this show i drool watching it

[prznenabella18]

guitar center $200 for a beatifull guitar lol lol lol lol

[JTNickelz]

Rosewood necks look the best. I don't like the look of maple necks. And ebony necks... Well it's just an opposite of maple. I like to be in the middle.

[CrimsonFingerBoard]

@JTNickelz

but it all depends on what tone you want to get for me i play carlos santa, evh, stuff like that and i like to used maple necks better becuase i like to see the neck age its cool

[deathrib]

@JTNickelz I prefer rosewood necks for the feel. Maple necks are lacquered over and feel unnatural to me. Ebony fretboards are usually too flat and feel like you're playing on a chalkboard.

[deathrib]

I posted the vid to my band to show what the cables look like going into a Godin guitar. It's kinda like an umbilical cord than just your normal cable.

[asdfcrow]

@JTNickelz Ebony Feels MUCH better than rosewood, the grain amazingly smooth.

[AnOddMusician]

@JTNickelz you mean fretboard? there are no guitars with rosewood or ebony necks.

[JTNickelz]

@AnOddMusician Yeah that's what I meant, Mr. Specific lol

[AnOddMusician]

@JTNickelz lol yea, but it would be pretty awesome if there were. an ebony neck would never warp practicly

[tango616]

@AnOddMusician yes there are...

Musicman have rosewood neck guitars.

[md2020live]

@AnOddMusician the George Harrison Fender Tele sig had an all rosewood neck and body.

[Mr98giuliano]

@JTNickelz i like ebony , but there aren't electric guitars with ebony fingerboard

[JTNickelz]

@Mr98giuliano Epiphone Les Paul Prophecy GX. :)

[Mr98giuliano]

@JTNickelz Oh, that's true...you're right! :) Thank's!

[RozzaCello1112]

@JTNickelz lol yeah hurrah for nonconformity

[fuckyouall10123]

looks like they making a fender neck XD

[daffodillers]

i normally put on that amount on my fingernails, but a guitar! NO way!

[Trauma1972]

22 coats of laquer R U Kidding me? Is that the standard? It sounds waaaay excessive...I own a Fender Standard Stratocaster and I don't think they use 22 coats of anything...(this is not meant to be start a flame war about Godin guitars...I know they are good guitars). anyone know if 22 coats of laquer is normal?

[ronnysoeberg]

"up to 22 coats of laquer". I'm sure some guitars have 22, but as he said "up to", i'm guessing that's for the more flashy models where unfrickenbelievably high gloss is desireable.

[HimHimAndHer]

UP to 22 coats, anyways you have to remember these are very thin coats, look how fast he goes over.

[11slash711]

Cheap guitar's have a lot of laquer, gibson uses

6 coats

[MitchStefano67]

omg wow

[MikeyTSH]

Gadin guitars? WTF?

[5GUITARGUY5]

its called godin you idiot. they are canadian. i have a godin acoustic and its the best one i ever had

[JTstratman13]

Man I love this show!

[aclamadas]

lol thats not the normal babes voice

[ladiesmantwooneseven]

i have gained a whole new appreciation for my guitar.

[bloeregard]

psshh, and this is the easy way to do it, you should see it when it's hand made ;)

[ladiesmantwooneseven]

that'd be cool.

have you made one?

[bloeregard]

i've made two so far. just takes a lot of planning, measure twice cut once, and a lot of elbow grease hahaha. very rewarding though, and they look and sound great!

[alexzeegreat]

i want to make my own guitar too but i cant figure out how important it is to get the moisture out or how to go about it...

do you do this?

[bloeregard]

it is fairly important. however, most woods that you buy will already be at an acceptable level of moisture, just be sure to ask if it has been kiln dried or air dried or something. if you buy wood off a website or ebay, the seller will usually list a moisture content, anywhere from 5-15% is pretty good. if you for some reason decide to cut your own wood out of a tree, then make sure to let it set in a cool, dry area like a garage or something for a year and a half or so.

[alexzeegreat]

thanks for the tip man..

[whiteexpress94]

the guys who made the guitar for bands like Secondhand Serenade,The JoBros and so forth must be so proud ....

[whiteexpress94]

i mean guitars.plural...

[MCRisREVENGE7]

That makes sense. Don't start something again.

[MCRisREVENGE7]

and yet, you're watching it

FAG

[JacobP2008]

Doesn't that controdict itself, Like gay homo and don't don't.

[rokstr3]

hey does anyone know where to get 2 part acrylic lacquer. I can find poly, and nitrocellulose but there is an acrylic finish that dries in 2 hours and i can't seem to find it. by the way that blue guitar in the beginning of the clip has no finger inlays except one.

[falcanary]

so what's a 'gay homo nerd'? i mean, i know what a 'gay nerd' is or a 'homo nerd' but ...... whatever, nevermind.

[MrJackanthony]

@falcanary lol:) Maybe a straight nerd? Double negative and all.

[willmer88]

haha. he calls it "ultraviolent" light.

[jrusso7660]

No he didn't. He said, "Ultraviolet."

[maor1993]

i have a question.

if the wood gets damp again when they put the glue why not glue the blocks first and save 2 months of pre drying?

[godofwarc93]

because if they dont it will warp before they glue it

[sk8erzbmx]

oh, BTW, its not the finger board, im pretty shure they call it the fret board.

[deftonesordie]

only when it has frets ; )

[cinnacook]

all guitars have frets

[CHOCOmoney826]

not true, there are fretless basses. and it can be called fingboard or fretboard

[cinnacook]

but there not just a guitar its a bass

[armyovhadez]

There's fretless guitars and basses.

[lordtyamat]

@CHOCOmoney826 : Aply to work for them and be partners, so you can share ideas!!

[Guitar101Dude]

@CHOCOmoney826 no only a fingerboard not a fret board. cuz it doesnt have any frets and im a professional guitar player. DER

[AlucardZero]

Some guitars don't have frets at all.

[UEtke745]

The terms "fretboard" and "fingerboard" are interchangeable, with the latter actually being the more technical term. Fingerboard is more appropriate in some respects as it the term of choice by most, if not all, major guitar manufacturers. Also, there are fretless basses and guitars. Though fretless guitars are considerably less common than fretless basses, they have been utilized by the likes of Steve Vai, Frank Zappa, and Pat Methany to name a few.

[XMitsuhideX]

haha second!

Thanks a bunch, I've been looking for this episode for a while!
