Homemade Guitar "The Cricket"

[madcaps1]

Pretty cool, thanks for sharing. I think it is a keeper. Good job.

[allabtMando]

Dear God that sounds amazing.

[LeftyCenter]

It's a travel-sized guitar. It's supposed to be small.

[staubfc]

let me tell you my opinion, it looks too light and the body is way too small :x

[moneer1000000]

great job man the guitar looks so cool and simple ,

[stillsmile19751975]

nice job !!!!!!!!!!!!

[laiholapso]

why use wood when you can play with the wings made of air

[shadowg38]

is it really hard to make a guitar like that or is it just the inner guts (wiring)  in the guitar that makes it hard to make? (if its hard to make)

[LeftyCenter]

@shadowg38 The wiring can be tricky, but the neck is probably the hardest part of the guitar to make. Like I said in the video, I didn't make this one's neck). It's hard because the frets all have to be the same height and perfectly spaced, and stuff like that.

[snickersfan15]

Respect, dood! :) I wanna try building one of these little crazy guitars.

Niiceeee Amazing Pickups Really Well Built Aswell

[MsCaleb79]

That´s a real cool guitar looking real good, and I wish you a good day!!!

[Nick5379]

I want to make a band where we all have to make our own instrument, like a jedi constructing his light saber :o

[mrlandroverdiscovery]

Looks a little like the base ball Bat guitar made for John Fogerty u should try to make one like his

[CableLizard]

What kind of a single pickup do you need for a one pickup guitar ? Neck or bridge ?

[LeftyCenter]

@CableLizard You can use either one, really. I don't remember which I bought, but I kinda positioned it in between where the bride and neck pickups usually are.

[superlou1s]

How's the weight/playability because of the small size?

[LeftyCenter]

@superlou1s The strings don't bend quite as well due to the shorter scale length. The action is a little high (at the lowest possible bridge placement) and the intonation is a tad off, since the strings can't be individually adjusted. Other than that, it sounds great and everything.

[t0psecretshit]

good job man! make more guitars

[shaqene23]

Make a video on how to make that bridge plz

[guitarfan0218]

[ht448]

[swishitjoey]

for a guitar with a body that you took from your bunkbed and a 12 dollar pickup.... it sounds pretty good haha. nice job.

[haydenralli2]

hey did you get the harmonys rite when making the guitar?

[LeftyCenter]

You mean the intonation? It's pretty darn close. The bridge is actually adjustable forward-back and up-down. It's one solid piece so you can't do individual adjustment, but it works well.

[dippyegg97]

thats awesome!

[tectruss]

whats the song u play @ 1:58 to 2:05 or did u make it up?

[LeftyCenter]

I made it up. Want a tab?
