awesome!!!!!! im making one right now with mahogany body maple neck and walnut fretboard

[joesteele93]

@LAREEandEarlshow sounds cool man, glad you like it

[AnDr3vV7]

verryy nice indeed..especially considering what you spend..just go to show how overpriced the likes of ibanez really are!.

[joesteele93]

@AnDr3vV7 thats true yeah, especially when ibanez are making hundereds at a time with special equiptment, cheaper woods, and workers who have been doing the job for years. Though theres no doubt, maming a guitar takes a lot of manhours in you make it yourself, thats probably what you pay for

[Poenut]

Very cool :) You are quite talented! And I love that you even made your own case to hold it AND your accessories (pedals, etc.). Nice work :)

[joesteele93]

@Poenut cheers, upholstering the case is actually one of the hardest bits, especially in the inside upholstering the curves of a guitar

Abso-lucking-footly GORGEOUS!

@jsteeleguitars nice it came out beautiful

[seifs4]

@jsteeleguitars ya i could see that.

[jsteeleguitars]

@seifs4 yeah exactly the automation is crazy that they have, though for me its a lot different to a handmade guitar, i dont think i could ever prefer a mass produced guitar now over a handmade one, i know it sounds cliche but a handmade one has the makers heart in in, and especially when you make one for yourself or see it being made, you know the guitar inside out

[jsteeleguitars]

@VEVOsuckmycock dont under estimate the effort it takes, but at the same time anyone could do it if they learn the skills needed, have the equiptment and experience

[jsteeleguitars]

@richardlpalmer thanks, took about 3 or 4 months of weekends basically

[jsteeleguitars]

@setogenico2 lol thats why i changed it to a toggle haha

[jsteeleguitars]

@seifs4 thats what i love! i dont like how so many have cheap plastic pick up rings, matte of personal taste i suppose

[jsteeleguitars]

@SuperCrazyChips dont worry its all there, just not in the video!

[jsteeleguitars]

@SuperCrazyChips hi sorry this is joesteele93 new account, frets are hard but once you learn how its simple enough. Carving the back of the neck well is probably harder and getting a neat tenon though
