  • WHERE DO I BUY ONE

  • I had another look and i think you should open a Custom Shop and build these and try and compete with Jackson,Esp,PRS,Gibson etc take it to NAMM..see what they think.

  • Sad case contraption!! What a waste of money and energy,i wouldn't want this if someone gave it to me for nothing!

  • poor guitar....

  • bro ill give u 600$ for that shyt lol!!!! pink sparkles are calling my name...!!

  • that 3/4 locking nut is fucking amazing wish my lock nuts covered 3/4 of my strings

  • te only reason he diddnt put frets on it was because he was too lazy

  • So here's my question, people make custom guitars, oh wait not just a custom, but an 8 string!!! Better! Let's make it fretless, ok, you've got it made good job, it works!!! But can you play it? Oh hell no, WHY? WHY ARE YOU WASTING YOUR TIME?!?!

  • oh shit!!!!!

  • I apologize for completely missing "Homemade" that is out of control, good sir. The "V" as well? You're a savage.

  • Learn to play on 6 strings first.

  • pink sparkly doom... epic name

  • looks like a toy

  • the neck doesnt match the whole guitar the brown neck would go with a black neck :)

  • wow sweet partial locking nut omg i wish my lock nut covered 3/4 of my strings cause thats just awesome :/

  • lol i saw this guitar on wikipedia!

  • How can you have a homeade Jackson guitar, wouldn't it be a Troy Guitar?

  • Great playing, horrible looking guitar...most non metal guitar ever, this isn't Gem and the Misfits....

  • @troyguitar i love how this guy zomfgiquit saiys this is falaming gay

    check out this Geo - Dance to Dubstep he has this on his channel

    made your day hasn't it lol

  • either i have beer goggles on but i think i see frets?! I thought it was fretless!

  • @bennysmurphy14 fret markers

  • @bennysmurphy14 Those are just lines drawn in so people know where to put their fingers, but still get that fretless sound.

  • @AsaBay2 more liekly he just removed the frets from an existing neck. the headstock looks like that of an Agile guitar, who do loads of 7s and 8 strings.

    so yeah the lines are just the empty slots from the fretwire before

  • what kinda pickup is that?! it looks like a jazz bass pickup

  • this is awesome

  • why the fuck would you do this??

  • @Podgy666 because you cant

  • pink sparkly guitar. way brutal

  • @Death66reaper6

    111111111111111

  • why the hell would you have a fretless guitar? say goodbye to sustain.

  • @shaterproofblosm Errm. Frets, sustain? Logic = none.

  • @shaterproofblosm doesnt have that effect on a bass :b... dunno about a guitar, but fretless basses have fine sustain (:

  • @shaterproofblosm It's awesome for deathmetal. u should try to listen to nile's ithyphallic

  • Man, I love that finish. How did you go about getting it? I would love to rip your imagination off and put it on one of my projects, lol

  • This is truly a horrible guitar I'm sorry, but its just wrong on every level. I like the colors though!

  • what is the point of fretless guitars?

  • my god such a cool idea fucked up by an ugly guitar

  • people hear someone play fast and they automatically assume they are "shredding" and that they are really good. speed is good, but it's not everything. this has no melody to it and it's too dirty. not good shredding in my book

  • awesome :)

  • as soon as money salio to contruir? where I can command to do one?

  • es una guitarra hecha en casa?

    is guitar made in home ,??

  • how much did it cost you to make that thing?

  • @GJRM18 Probably 10 bucks, look at it -.-

  • @OnyxBeastGuitar cant tell if trolling or just really stupid

  • You SHRED.

  • 8 string of pink sparkly doom epic lmao

  • FOCK. Nice. 

  • Wikipedia brought me here.

  • you suck

  • i also might been drinking :DD:DD but how those really work?? if theres no frets how it still can produce the sound? doesnt the string like touch all over the neck? im a newbie to fretless

  • tabs:

    111111111111111111

  • MESA BOOGIE FTW

  • that is fucking pure homemade badass =P

  • lol at people that put excuses to why they aren't playing well in the description. i find alot of guitarists think there alot better than they are and when they hear themselves recorded they wonder why they sound like shit and make excuses, but really, its just a lack of skill and the lack of being able to tell.

  • @chooch187 I think the fact that this is his first time ever playing an 8 string guitar is a pretty damn good excuse.

  • @chooch187 I agree. I suffer from the opposite. Seriously. It's like, "Whoa, I didn't realize I had it in me" ;)

  • Yeah...

  • i willgive you £150 for it

  • olol !!!!!

  • Ah dude you should have made like bedazzle inlays!!

  • What. The. Fuck.

    this is pro. (:

  • best name for a guitar ever!!

  • just stating my oppinion here, but why on earth would you need an 8 string guitar. thats what bass is for? and if your that determined to get that low couldnt you just drop your tuning? oppinions?

  • @ryan4951 its very simple, at lower tunings, most especially to 8 string levels the strings become very loose which can be uncomfortable and unresponsive, the 8 string allows one to have the deep bass notes whilst maintaining normal string tension and it also ensures (generally) that the pickups will be setup to pick up the low notes without the muddiness you would get if you de-tuned a 6 or 7 string, it also allows the high end to remain very tight for soloing and you can get brutal low end...

  • @ryan4951 also, many guitarists want to emulate bass notes, emulating some bass frequencies is all part of exploring music and how you can be different from others, if you don't know who he is already check out Tosin Abasi from Animals as Leaders because he demonstrates this perfectly and he is an incredible guitarist too.

  • @qwertythecrazyllama i got it, i still think that alot of bands that use the 8 go a little over board. like a ridiculous amount of open power chords

  • @ryan4951 I Agree, the best 8th string usage is polyrhythmic, when you're just hitting the open F# or E at odd intervals with the bass drum or snare hits in mathematically complex music music like meshuggah and Animals as Leaders or even in simple meters but when your being all Dino Cazares about it with the power chords ALL the time it kind of loses its appeal...

  • @qwertythecrazyllama EXACTLY!! its amazing to finally find someone else who gets that.

  • oh my god i need one.

  • Than how do you do a dive bomb?!?!

  • @M3talCovers You could still hit a harmonic or hold a note and dive it down without frets.

  • epic guitar, great tone.Nice playing Last year i made my first guitar a les paul 59, i did a very good job on it. i was wondering where you got you plans.

  • omg you should totally bedazzle that motherfucker.

  • So what if this guy cant play that well, i would like to see you guys make your own 8 string fretless piece of.... shit... that needs to.... go into a furnace.. or used for firewood

  • @IISaintNZII he made it for fun clearly...... he states that he doesnt play fretless check his other video he has chops just not with that guitar

  • @StinkyWeenis haha yeah i kinda guessed. i cant even make a guitar so i give him props :P

  • dude learn to play, u seriously suck, make a one string guitar first and stick with it, or just chop ur arms off

  • I'm sorry idk if it's the guitar or if you just suck but this is terrible.

  • pink sparkled ist cool. however, this looks gay.

  • a floyd rose on a fretless guitar.. what a useless idea..

  • what type of pickup is that? you could totally use some more bass to your tone, no sense in having an 8 string with no balls. totally dig it though.

  • Man is this Nevermore I hear at 0:41??

  • lol i know what everyone was gonna say gay lookin guitar then...you started shredding lulz

  • i used to play like this and it just sounds like SHIT!

  • gay shredder? you mean the main villain in the Ninja Turtles cartoons was gay?

  • @ESPLTDM50boY each to their own i guess

  • Guitar looks sick. Its your amp that sounds lame.

  • why would u put a 'floyd' on a fretless?

  • Not gonna lie, that thing is pretty awesome.

  • Ugly

  • THAT THING WAS ON WIKIPEDIA!!!!!!!1

  • Anybody who thinks this is gay probably couldn't build anything HALF as good as this.

  • don't listen when people say it's gay. there just not comftable with their sexuality. if it had frets and emgs i'd buy and pplay it :D

  • this is awesome

  • even its a bullshit guitar for your work you should be punished like a sex offender!

  • i never got the use of a fretless guitar

  • you are god

  • So... What..? C.C. Deville plays for Meshuggah now?

  • It Would Have Been More Awesome as a 6 String With a Jackson Head Stock, It Looks Nigger Rigged like a mother fucker haha

  • What's with the six-string floyd? And how the hell did you secure the other two strings?

  • this guitar is so awesome man great job
