The Nautilus SteamPunk Guitar

[xxXWingsXInXWarXxx]

I've been wanting to make a steampunk guitar ever since I saw one on DA, I saw this one there too, and I'm wanting to know what that lamp is...

[tonyborbony]

That's one nice guitar.... are you still making those? If so, how much?

[felipeandjason]

THAT IS AN AWESOME GUITAR MAN!!!

[misfitsfan445]

i dont like th big part at the bottom but besides its really nice and nice guitar playing

[guitarlad89]

HOCUS POCUS BY FOCUS YEAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!

[murdoc111]

How much did it eventually sell for?

[moses132049]

hahaha it took me a second to realize you were playing hocus pocus, sweet guitar dude

[R4MMV8SRT10]

what pieces were you playing squire? somehwhat dapper to my ears yes it was.

[drumdadio]

he's covering focus . this guy rules!

[Darre555]

this must cost alot 

[iwillstompyourgrapes]

The plasma makes it just completely fucking awesome...

[brentjames666]

thats pretty badass dude! =D

[Jabouh]

nice nautilus and nice hocus pocus

[DareAxel]

hoow much

[vividguy1]

i.. want.. that.. GUITAR! xD!! id give anything for that

[Jackalski57]

Kudos on playing the opening of "Hocus Pocus" by Focus as well as Triumph - "Magic Power", eh? btw the guitar's pretty cool too!

[zerovirus16]

about how long does it take to build something like this? i am a beginning guitar builder, and when i saw both this and the villanizer, i wanted to do a steampunk concept myself. what would you suggest?

[TheSpatulaOfDoom]

awesome guitar but I'd like to see you try doin the vocals for Hocus Pocus :P

[thundereaglecustoms]

@TheSpatulaOfDoom - lol, not a chance. No one wants to hear me do that. ;)

[Nyarlathotep9]

Your work is impeccable, as is your playing. The plasma lightning is a nice touch :).

[sircraigery]

I'm curious what you got for it. Looks awesome!

[b0lly]

i see nobody's commented here for almost a year...thundereagle, are you still taking commissions on the nautilus and villainizer? i'm surprised i haven't seen any photos or videos of them posted online by people who have bought them, i would be very proud to own one!

[thundereaglecustoms]

@b0lly - I've been making other models, just built one for T-Pain called "rEVOLVEr", which I'll be posting soon.

[b0lly]

the blue light was a genius idea, that thing looks incredible. would be a shame if only one of each were ever made!

[Stratplayer05]

Hocus Pocus by Focus for the win

[MrKiljan]

Fantastic guitar, I love steampunk <3

[WGSen]

WANT. WANT. WAAAANT!!!!

[Duststorm01]

Very nice :)

For those interested, the first song he plays (rhythm and then lead) is Focus - Hocus Pocus

[zalgocomes1]

That is a fucking AWESOME guitar. I applaud the person(s) who made it.

[tloztw]

strange world solo, nice.

[NamineKairiXIII]

Is that a mini tesla? So cool o_o

[THEMAKER888]

Whoo what is that thing at 0:55 ?

[mwadevilg]

How much does it weigh?

[thundereaglecustoms]

@mwadevilg - about the same as it did before mods. I build light.

[linktronics]

nice

[Szy626]

dam look asome

[DrSparrowShrike]

EPIC loving the telsa core

[epochofeden]

what did you finish the neck with on this and the villanizer to maintain the look, but to feel good playing

[Fallentemples]

one word: sexy.

[Ametore]

nice design, great playing

[Dchaosshadow]

why would you sell a one of a kind thing like that. who ever buys or bought it would just make more and it wouldn't be the only one anymore. It is still a sweet guitar.I would so buy it!! good design and everything.

[thundereaglecustoms]

@Dchaosshadow - because there's plenty involved in making them that most people wouldn't be able to do, or even figure out.

[neeterxxi]

Gorgeous workmanship, gorgeous playing. Almost makes me want to break out my mom's dusty old acoustic...

[damoninja]

fucking awesome.. the villanizer and this are two of my favourite guitar designs, got me inspired into creating my own ive got two in the works now.

[GriffkinPT]

Loose the "cristal ball" just.. otherwise I like it visualiy. As for the sound... awsome... plainly awsome... lots of sustain and defined treble ;)

[ELECTRONICSFREAK]

Beautiful Guitar. Sounds Great

[zaneisthemaster]

it reminds me of the game bioshock

[rockwizclown]

ugly nock off of dean ml

[thundereaglecustoms]

It *is* a Dean ML dipshit.

[lutrasaurus]

Nice guitar and nice playing.

[Brettney01]

I like the little blue thingy, lol.

But check out the Villanizer.

It doesnt have facy light-ups and other doohickies, but its still pretty amazing.

[completeguitartutor]

Awesome! What amplification are you using in this video?

[jas22]

i love how you blow us away-- not just with the guitar but with your impeccable playing, then you are all modest at the end!

amazing-- the axe, and our playing. can i ask - you were hitting that switch on the guitar. what does that switch do?

[TheMrjam5]

He's switching between pickups.

[Phreakshow91]

one of the few dean guitars i really like from their outward appearance

[ghlegond3]

duuuuuuuude nice DEAN ML. wishe you still had it

[zoxsk8]

Where did you get a blue plasma ball?

[nukeandfusion]

GREAT GUITAR!!GREAT SONGS!

[jeshie1233]

1.37 - 2.14, is that its an iron maiden song, but wat is it? i thought it was phanotm of the operah... or maybe the iron maiden

[GIGeorge23]

Hocus Pocus By Focus!!!!

Awsome guitar btw

[wonderboy1989]

Love the guitar, but I've just got to tell you all... The gear wheels are spray painted LEGO technic gear wheels! xD

[thundereaglecustoms]

Uh, yeah? And? If it works, it works. And, it works.

[wonderboy1989]

That's what I mean. I love it!

[xxXWingsXInXWarXxx]

@thundereaglecustoms That actually is a cheap and inexpensive way to do the gears. Metal gears tend to be a bit pricy these days.

[iamhoops]

lol, I noticed that too. But that's sort of the beauty of the design, isn't it? Those gears look so good, but you don't need to pull apart a clock or cut them out of metal.

Sweet guitar.

[welwise]

I have a baby dean, thinking of doing a similar job on it. Just for me tough heh. Honestly, amazing work.

[FretFrenzy08]

hocus pocus focus

[DjeneralBaklava]

Are those Lego gears? :O

Awesome.

No doubt one of the most beautiful guitars I've seen in a while.

[trcorm]

yeah those are legos. and that guitar is frickin amazing!

[CypherFTW]

This is awesome. It's one thing to create a steampunk guitar, but to make one that has as nice a sound as that is amazing. Lets hope you make some more of these beautiful guitars.

[ZyklnAeon]

what is the name of the song played from 2:15 to the end (I hope to find the tab somwhere)

[shreddalizer]

its guitART.lol.that thing is crazy lookin!but why?or i guess why not? would be the right question.

[fraggmental]

cool guitar...cool playin' hocus pocus :D

[zkk90]

cool guitar it looks a little bit like a very big explorer......

[IBiteThings]

that is the most sexual guitar i have ever seen in my life.

[XxMissNoNamexX]

Lol! That's awesome!

[Bookworm579]

That's hot ^_^ If only I could play... col

[IPunchaUInTheFace]

I FOUND IT!

I saw an image of this on another site and now I finally found it. Myehehehehe.

I am seriously in LOVE with every steampunk item there is OUT THERE. From the little simple spinning gears to THIS GUITAR. Oh my god. I need to make things like this.

<3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3 <3

[SmartDrug]

Beautiful piece of art, what did it sell for?

[thundereaglecustoms]

about 20 hours of continuous use.

[thundereaglecustoms]

Thanx for the kind words dude. ;) Theyre limited in the sense that every one I do is slightly altered to make it an original...other then that, I'll build one any time you want it. We also have affordable payment plans.

[22CaliburArmadillo]

great guitar, amazing style, excellent work overall.

I love the lego gears :P

[monkeyfacedking]

how much did it sell for

[thundereaglecustoms]

approx. $1400.00

[rAFiCoRe]

wow now thats a real masterpiece

[craiglerxst]

Beautiful! How are you powering the plasma ball?

[thundereaglecustoms]

It's internally powered by 2 AAs.

[craiglerxst]

How did you mod that? I thought they were mains-powered only?

[thundereaglecustoms]

You can find battery ones, however hard that might be, then scale down the electronics a bit.

[CoinWasher]

If I had a guitar like that, I'd be 3 years in the future, playing it on top of freedom tower.

88 MILES PER HOUR!i!i!i!i!

[NJlo]

Whaha, cool, Focus! I saw Jan Akkerman live just last friday! That's not the original way of playing it though..

[thundereaglecustoms]

Nope, thats the way Maiden redid the song on a B-side live single last album.

[destroyer1of1senses]

Shit that looks like something out of the Matrix

[chimaera01]

Ingenious! Keep up the good work man.

[marynowskhy]

hokus pokus... :D

[mudthrower3]

how could i get my hands on one of these or the villianizer? they are the coolest guitars i've seen in my life

[narutopowers]

The gears are lego parts arn't they? Thats a very sweet idea. Must find some paint for mine.

Sweet guitar. Nothing more I can say about it. 6/5.

[JanoElBozo]

Yeah, i noticed the lego parts right away... Very nice touch tho :D

[Gogglethief]

what is that last song?

[thundereaglecustoms]

That's "Magic Power" from Triumph, played as the lead guitarist Rik Emmett ended it when played live. (Or somewhat that way.)

[sabiaband]

Wo!!!! great sound!!! el sonido es bacano!!! me gusto el sonido de esa guitarra, al principio!!! muy severo!!! yeahh!!! rock & roll ! great video!

[tediumblithly]

how much did that sell for?

[thundereaglecustoms]

I honestly dont recall, I believe it was around 8 or 9 hundred at auction. I dont make them however for less then 1400.00 on commission.

[SilveniumTheDrifter]

That is awesome...XD

[mojool]

MAIDEN!!!!!

nice piece:))

[s8ntmark]

Great design, dude! Very UN-Steampunk music ;) But awesome just the same..very very very cool! Good job!

[thundereaglecustoms]

Thanx man. Nah no steam music for me, I just figure showing people both ends of a spectrum might be enough for them to know it's a very capable axe. ;)

[ducttapeoverlord]

It's the flux capcitor from Back to the Future!

[chimaera01]

Hahaha

[wedgejaeger]

HA, hocus pocus by focus. that is the most awesomest guitar ever, and the plasma glowy thing makes it even more so!

[kylelichterispissed]

amazing axe bro!!

[thundereaglecustoms]

thanx dude. ;)

[Goldenthrush]

WOW! How much does it weigh now? It looks and sounds great!

[thundereaglecustoms]

No more then it did before, no wieght is really added, everything added is Lexan, which is really light and non-breakable. Thanx for the kind words. ;)

[gruntsbaneook]

I love the bottom light part.

[corndodoubleg]

wow... awesome guitar, if youre ever playing in a concert dont smash it... haha... it even lights up!

[theBosstone]

that is THE most beautiful guitar I have ever seen

[XaqFixx]

This guitar gives me me a steam powered funny feeling 20,ooo leagues under my pants.

[Markinsdale]

*drool*

[reus3d]

You'd need to have something special about you to pull off using that in concert I imagine. I doubt the Jeans/T-shirt look would work.

Sexy guitar though. I love the lighty-up part.

[SirPadre]

An Idea for the next "steampunk" generation guitar! A Les Paul! I would love to see one of those customed!

[xeronicus]

man alive....

Any chance for a post apocalyptic styled thunder stick?

Thats just some beautiful work there, keep it up.

[Mangawitch]

So cool
