[LookIDrum]

BLACK PEOPLE!

NIGGARS!

[Murill0Mike]

[Slavetskiy]

Roland in the box?

[0IKakashiI0]

3:07 Hysteria =D

[ibanezplayer76]

To much fuzz. Other then that. Nice guitar Bro

[koamarlin]

The guitar´s design reminds me a lot of the 60ies Framus Electrona

- however it seems to be an from scratch built Warmoth Z-Body ,right?

VERY well done!!

[Megaman007pr]

Where do You find the paint? Chrome

[CABRONZZ777]

it's alot of instruments mixed in one cool

[CABRONZZ777]

whats the song in 2:09

[TheInsomnia90]

i want this guitar !!!!!! how much???

[DeBuraInc01]

with that midi....who needs a piano anymore...

[vintastic319]

fuzz jesus id fuckin say so

[lookslikeharry2]

I spewed mountain dew everywhere when you played using the orchestra hit voice, fuckin hilarious

[dustsmallhong]

better than gibson firebird x

[trakkino]

pick ups impedance? they sound very high gain to me...

[Kenshin11212]

I completely shat bricks when that piano part started. Was not expecting that!

[skinheadreddog69]

this is a beast!!

[aqeb2000]

That Piano stuff was Crazzzy 0.o Niiice

[MrPentatonics4life]

did you put both of those effects in the guitar, casing and all? Or did you remove the electrionics? 

[LoyalKnightofOrion]

what do you have all the different knobs set up for? what hardware do you have in it? The guitar looks cool, sounds great, and has great sustain. I love guitar with amazing sustain and that sound great.

[fjferd]

Oh yeah, you want a Fernandes Sustainer in that thing if it already doesn't have one.

[Goldie6434]

I actually love the Fuzz, Im now Looking into getting a GK, and the Pitch Shifter sounds epic. :D

[rockster07]

I love to proximity sensor in the upper horn. lol

[MuSeMaN1000]

dude buy a noise compressor and turn doen the gain. this is messy.

[LKRstudios]

I like the bell part!

[u2m2i5n7abunnies]

this is the most amazing guitar ive ever seen by the way

[u2m2i5n7abunnies]

no doubt in my mind matt bellemy will have one of theese

[NearlyAMusician]

needs a little more bass if you ask me, but love it

[PanteraMan717]

To be honest, I don't like the fuzzy tones. Its a little overkill on a regular 25.5"scale.

Although, this would sound very if you did the same guitar with a 30" scale. Props for the chrome pickguard BTW!

[GARYBRONNE]

OK WHERE DO YOU GET IT?? HAS ALOT OF COOL FACTOR!!!

[senna01]

Looks alright, but sounds like shit.

[MuSeMaN1000]

awful.

[kramerstriker1]

whats it made of and is it expensive to make the body?

[KSixStringX]

I WANT ONE

[rockster07]

LMAO, 5:15 routing the signal through a midi to play a guitar sound? seems kinda redundant to me, maybe im wrong. lol

[shreddybits]

@rockster07 He's not routing the midi signal, he's actually turn one of the pickups volume back up. When the Roland G-Synth is engaged, you'll get a mix of the guitar + the synthesizers if you don't turn your pickups down. :)

[rockster07]

@shreddybits well I stand corrected. lol, thanks, that makes alot more sense.

[rlf09]

wow awesome this is amazing

[Airrick333]

BADASS!



[h1soka]

What song is that at 2:10?

[Peopretteps]

@h1soka sounds like the intro of Soundgarden with Black hole sun

[Ranulfpitike]

Oh...my...god...

How much for one of these?

[TheThroney]

i like the clean sound it gives

[yinyangthang]

Sorry. Just a God-awful sound.

[Bybiazmogis]

shit



[Sozialneutralist]

Cool. I knew there is no reason for me to learn the piano!

[Flavi017]

wooou awesome, where did you buy it? i would like to get one

[MuSeMaN1000]

ive just noticed your proximity probe on the upprt horn :D! love the synths... not sure about the fuzz sound - it needs more work. :P

[MegaCalvinHobbes]

I was thinking that it sounded like the beginning to "Plug in Baby Live at Wembley Stadium" and then you started playing it.

[thehefolomp]

id never get tired of that guitar

[deplanetiser]

if this is for sale, i WILL buy this.

[thomizz]

6:57 FUCK YEAH

[Awgez24]

@thomizz Boure FTW.

[combolado]

The phantom of the opera Buahahaha xD,great customization..soo you can add any sound possible with a custom guitar?

[michaeljackson407]

kick ass dude

[TheRealErob]

why would you ever need this?

[turttleboy86]

for sale?

[daurpm]

omfg!! loved the piano effect... and the bells.. and youre clearly a muse fan

[FallenSkaterss]

how much jezz i want it

[Phreakshow91]

killer guitar, man, but you should definitely put a looping function inside so you can modify riffs not just single notes.

[meetuncleajim]

mana nk dpt ekk??

[SophomoricHumor]

haha at the bells i thought it said MIDI - Balls

[ulmboy556]

what you need is some KAOSS in your life.

[MarginalLiaison]

@ulmboy556 - I agree, but if you want one you'll need a different body, a kaoss pad would never fit on that...

[0cscott]

I am so going to have to put a theremin in my guitar!!

any advice on how I should go about doing it?

[Saunantaus1]

Pointless shreding

[Chessmanexe]

WOW!

How would one go about building something like this :D

[BansheeGuitar]

No, there is no onboard pre-amp

[JulianTheGuitarist]

im lovin that piano and bells effect

[Kingddd333]

Awesome guitar

[gianlutallica]

This is sick as hell!!!! I loved it.

[frostbitestudios]

Holy crap. Where did you have this amazing guitar made?

[Ibik]

nicei sustains

[DistortedPerception1]

very ineresting sound

[srgtgrumbles]

how do you apply midi files to you guitar like that? and that is a totaly sweet axe by the way =D

[BansheeGuitar]

The guitar has a Roland GK-3 divided pickup just above the bridge which can link through a Roland G-20 interface to a synth

[4spida2fingaz0]

@BansheeGuitar I WOULD GO FUCKING NUTS WITH THIS GUITAR

[Patcha1993]

@gtarman8d YA but the cool part is that he built it himself lol. that makes up for it :P

[HillaryHitler]

Sounds like a Radio station that won't come in clear

[Nerka131]

its got so much fuzz coz its a in built fuzz factory and other stuff

xD

[korsunskyp]

lame

[StopTheVultures]

Where did you get your pickguard material good sir, I cannot find it anywhere, I'm not good at the internets, and I'm sure alot of other people here want to know.

[BansheeGuitar]

Its 0.8mm thick sheet steel cust to shape, polished, then triple chromed and polished again and again.

[fjferd]

There is an easier way and better way. 0.8mm 304 or 316 '#8' Finish Stainless Steel, this already has a mirror finished surface. It is pvc-plastic coated so you can have your shape laser cut, countersink all your holes, install then peel the plastic right off. Saves you loads of time and will never rust, it also is NON-Magnetic. I have laser-cut this on occasion. There is also aluminum material similar to it but it scratches to easily (being softer).

[eliten0Ob]

Awesome concept, but could've been done better. :/

[elnegronestor]

actives sucks

[Yowzow]

actives are good

its all personal oppinion

[CMAlexx]

i want that guitaaaar!!!!!!

[chocolatesprite]

to much fuzz!

[sharrer2]

sounds like a built in therimin lawl

[tonyrosam]

how much? $

[MaxxxZotti]

Ouch my ears!!!!!!!

[NickGuitarMalfara13]

1:42-1:50 how do u do tht

[BUBBAJ1010]

force haha

[nocheaterspleas]

What's the song you play at around 5:50? Sounds really familiar :|

[Muzikman127]

SO MANY POSSIBILITIES!!!!!!!!

I'm assuming the fuzz is a fuzz factory?

[BansheeGuitar]

No. Its a Fuzz Probe

[lvo1306]

@BansheeGuitar Which is a Fuzz Factory with an RF Antenna controlling the stab knob.

[MultiK1llZ]

how much $ ?

[MAXPAYNE485]

1:25 PLUG IN BABY!!!!!!!!

[kaleluk31]

guitar looks great but omg the noise was horrible what happened

[edmundtayhokim]

the sound is bad.

[Fluffypopcicle]

the midis are incredibly lush, and sound beautiful, but the fuzz distortion is horrible. if there were something that was an opposite of an eargasm that fuzz distortion would be it.

[SharkTooth57]

Fuzz theremin, dats crazy man!

[DrumGuitarist1379]

I think the violin part was cool because it actually sounds like a violin lol

[musefreak122]

plug in baby.. theres an easier way to play it without shifting

[MetalAlevosy]

naaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa­aaaaaaaaaaaaa very good!

[touyacvel]

it's amazing man.. cannot believe it. very well done! i want that guitar!

[gtarman8d]

Forgot to mention tho, I DO however enjoy the synth sounds, I was thinking of getting the gr-20 myself =D

[GeorgeyBoy13]

That MIDI thing... omfg dude I want that guitar. The piano and bells thing was just AMAZING :D

[telecaster471]

thats probably one of the best sounding and looking guitars ever. ITS AWESOME!!!

[SubAtomicStudios]

wait why the fuck do you need a pitch shifter knob thing when it has a trem?

[shreddybits]

Try, being able to play while the pitch is already shifted, so you don't have to worry about losing tonality?

[SubAtomicStudios]

oh yeah i guess. just, the way he was using it.. he used it kind of the way a trem would be used- dropping the pitch dramatically for a short period. he wasnt really playing for a long time with the pitch shifted.

[kanetrain12]

how did you emulate those bells and piano tones? That's amazing!

[avskrap]

Reading descriptions is a concept most useful when questions arise while browsing YouTube.

[BansheeGuitar]

The guitar has a Roland GK-3 divided pickup just above the bridge which can link through a Roland G-20 interface to a synth

[MuseManiack12]

its really nice with all the looks and pitch shifter and gadgets, but it sounds horrible

[Legolas2910]

the guitar is amazing

[bloodyfrets]

Hmmm no thanks

[rstar1990]

omg.... if i had that thing....

[SubAtomicStudios]

and a floyd rose on top of it all

[guitcrzy]

your guitar is really annoying!!! but cool!

it sounds as if there is a fly buzzing around!

[aekhoo]

fucking amazing love it expecialy the stock

[Olikid182]

is it heavy?

[BansheeGuitar]

Not overly so .... just a bit heavier than a Les Paul.

[TheSAJ11]

OH MAN , a piano ........ DAMN this is killer

[TheSAJ11]

AWESOME , for the effort by itself , awesome

[SamCurran41]

i dont understand why you make your OWN custom guitar but make it like matts?

[BansheeGuitar]

It was certainly inspired by Matts .... no secret there .... but it has lots of extras and lot of differences. So its not the same .... I think its fair to call it a custom as it was made to order and there is only one.

[notyourhomeboy]

warmoth body by chance?

[benjaminshinobi]

I'm curious, is there any information about what the inside of this guitar looks like, PCB..etc?

I've read a bunch of stuff about similarly loaded Frank Zappa guitars and I'm curious as to how it works when you have so much electronics inside the guitar.

[Sw33tishFish]

it sounds like there is a fuzz factory in there

[BansheeGuitar]

A Fuzz Probe actually .... which is a Fuzz Factory with a theramin like RF antenna.

[greendayroks666]

can anybody find a tab source for 6:58?

[drnrqsldch]

Yes, your ear XD

[kball69]

LAWL

[Schmendlow]

just search for "classico" by tenacious d it sounds pretty much the same :)

[notyourhomeboy]

bach's bouree in e minor

[1mdlmusic]

Great video. Love the guitar. The MIDI sounds remind me of a Casio PG380 synth guitar that I used to own. But that onboard theremin is really cool! Keep up the good work.

[3Deity]

Wow, is that t-shirt really an x-ray of your actual rib cage? [sic]

[SrDeMaFp]

Sick guitar! Your vibrato makes Kirk Hammett's vibrato sounds tolerable, though.

[jahenx94]

Sounds about as good as a circut bent toy or something a dentist would use.

[454james454]

Woo!

[notyourhomeboy]

this guys is smart. if u got a lot of money fuck gibson or fender or whatever brand. and just get your own one of a kind guitar

[LTDm50]

very good!!!! sounds awsome i really liked it

[Norbizzle2012]

Hysteria!!!

[pierrenpohan]

cool guitar dude!!

[SMart7751]

The instrument sounds are good, but the distortion sounds too digi solid state.

[KyleTpTp]

It not distortion.

It's the fuzz box that's built in

[rorroesdios]

(Tamacun?? 6:31) Niiiiiice : D haha Tssss awesome guitar man

[megustaguitarra]

pretty slick guitar you got there. the bach was epic.

[An0nym0uscot]

i think its so awesome, but i couldnt have one, getting finger prints on it would drive me nuts. i still thinks its epic though, 5*

[Tallukeah]

woah thats awesome haha did you make it yourself?? also that whammy-like thing at the top of your guitar... is that the same thing that matt bellamy has on his manson 007? is it the fuzz probe? im not sure :S

nice plug in baby riff btw :D

[BansheeGuitar]

yes, the copper plate on the upper horn of the guitar body is the RF antenna for the installed Zvex Fuzz Probe

[Tallukeah]

ahh nice how much did it cost? ive gotten into matt bellamys guitars loads and i kinda want to get a custom made :D

[kusgko]

All that costs gk3???

[BansheeGuitar]

I don't understand your point .... or is it a question?

[kusgko]

It is a question

(sorry i´m mexican)

[definemark]

thats sick.....i want it...

[dark5hadow]

hahahahhaha this the first time i see keyboard souns effects played on a guitar

[alanclimb]

get 10 times the stuff at a fraction of the cost. buy a roland guitar synth and it fits onto your own guitar

[BansheeGuitar]

But you missed the point that this guitar has a Roland GK-3 divided pickup already installed, which links to a Roland GI-20 MIDI Interface and a Kawai MP8 Professional Digital Stage Piano (or Roland synth if you like). So it's not a case of either/or .... it has both.

[DarkAngelEU]

awesome job, dude!! :D trying to build a zvex fuzz in my guitar too,.. btw, what song did you play in the pitch shifter part?

[BansheeGuitar]

If you mean the song at the 3 minute mark in the video (starts with overdriven guitar then the pitch shifter is added) then its Hysteria, by Muse.

[DarkAngelEU]

no, earlier =/ around two minutes and further

[blake122339]

how much does one of those cost

[BansheeGuitar]

No set cost .... there's about US$3,000 in parts and about 300 hours of work over a period of 5 months.

[Vigilante606]

This is so cool...I want one!

[BansheeGuitar]

Sorry, but there is only one .....

[quizno1992]

*jaw dropping*

[foamstrat]

??????

[trexatron7]

how much did that cost to make?

[BansheeGuitar]

No set cost .... there's about US$3,000 in parts and about 300 hours of work over a period of 5 months.

[soggytoast89]

wow bro wow

[Mettylus]

how much?

[BansheeGuitar]

No set cost .... there's about US$3,000 in parts and about 300 hours of work over a period of 5 months.

[snake10143]

Love the airsynth-style sensor with the fuzz! Incredible!

[JBryantMusic]

I can't really voice an opinion as I really don't like extreme fuzz.

[tommytomat0]

this is actually amazing!

who ever owns one of these beasts is bloody lucky!

[porunpeso]

U are Matthew Bellamy !! jejeje :P

[1vvk1]

awesome guitar, it sounds like matt bellamy guitar, congratulations.

[Zwikster]

this is what I call INOVATION!

amazing idea!

[davidbrucemusicvideo]

wow! amazing! really!

how much!

and i thought my PRS was versatile.

i'm a looping artist/ 1 man band for a living. i would tear it up with this thing!

[bigcountry4life5]

as soon as ur started playing plug in baby i knew this would be a muse inspired guitar, its just like matt bellamys
