Just watched the 3 videos. Very impressive. I have been inspired, I just got a cool shaped guitar today for free of a friend so I might have a go at doing a paint job on it.
the reason people build guitars is either so they can get a cheap les paul or actually feel like they hve accomplished something, you have don neither
I sell kits with mahogany bodies and with flamed maple also ebony fretboards and different styles of fretboard markers. I have Explorers, LP's, Glying V's and SG's
Email me at ro@artelco.com or go to my website rmolsonguitars don't forget .com
i have a question, i know where to get the fret wire, and everything pick-ups aint a problem, and neither is the fret board, but where do i get the knobs and wiring system along with the jack port thing, what do u call that? and where can i get it? it means alot to me, thanks :D
im really interested in making my own guitar it would be my first one and before i even started is it possible for me to get the kit and the same pickups that are in like a les pual custom and it sound the same as the 5500 dollar les pual custom and i could paint it to be any color i wanted?
@xxprincebkxx there's a lot more to a guitar's tone than pickups. An experienced luthier would probably be able to build a guitar from scratch and make it sound like a real les paul, but i dont believe any beginners kit is capable of really sounding like that.
There's like 4 Adelaides lol, my friend's band is named Adelaide. Even though the name of this song is Adelaide not the band name, I searched facebook for Adelaide, and there's like 3.
@iorlasinaus hey nice design could u help me out with sum tips or sumthin i want my make my own and put some of my own design ideas on a guitar but i dont really know where to strt or wat to do and i dont hav much money. Any Help???
he bought i'm guessing a bulldog kit? feel free to correct me it looks a bit like that, maybe eastern maple tops... so stop giving him crap guys it still takes skill to put it together and get it working plus to give it a proper finish... i like it! :), mind if i ask for a video on you playing it? that would be awesome to here it's sound.
@Onyxaxe well actually i clicked on the video because it interested me, not because i wanted to listen to music i liked. i dont care about the persons music taste, and just because i told other people about my solution doesnt make me childish.
Why are you guys trying to detract from what he did? He doesn't have to chop down a tree in his backyard and get the wood himself to tell people he's building a guitar. I think it's a cool project.
hey Colierrannd2, u prime the guitar to seal the wood and sand it to smooth out the little imperfections in the wood, and smooth it out to get it ready for paint
I hope you'll forgive my ignorance but wouldn't sanding the primer just take the primer back off? Why bother with the primer in the first place? Could you please explain that? Thanks, and thanks for sharing.
awesome vid! the driving part freaked me out...thought u were on the wrong side of the road but ya know...im american...i do everything backwards lol awesome idea for the finale, id go with red main color and white for the rest. anyway what grit count of sandpaper did you use?
ya know what... if somebody could make a series of videos of how EXACTLY to make a guitar than that would be gr8. i dont care if its 10 or 100 videos in the series. as long as it gets into detail about it. none of these sped up videos or just like 3 seconds of every scene they recorded. That would be awesome to do.
No one can just make you a video showing you how to make a guitar. Every build is different, different measurements, different parts, sizes, scale lengths, etc. If you want to get into this type of thing you need to learn to work on the instruments first. Start setting up your guitars. Learn how they work, action, intonation, truss rods, scale lengths, once you get a general understanding of how the instruments work, you can get an idea of what you need to do to build your own.
can you tell me please where you get That guys face on your guitar, i am looking same kind of thing, Is there some sites or something that i can find?
hey mate, can you post or at least message me the list of all the tools you used including all the cans/paints/polishers with the brand names? Im doing the same thing here
there are lots of kits on eBay starting at 50-60, i got a nice plywood strat kit for 60, prefinished with all hardware included (cheap stuff, but i just didnt want to deal with the finishing)
