Guitar built in woodworking class at Dale Jackson Career Center in north Texas. Built it in 4 weeks. All guitar parts from an Epiphone strat replica. Woods used lacewood & padauk. Own design didn't copy anything, and if it looks similar, it is definately unintended. Hope you like it... feel free to comment or criticize.

  • nice, I'd like to hear it! But im wondering....why did you go and leave it out in a hailstorm? Surface of the wood reminds me of hardwood floors where a few big dogs live, all pocked to hell. In any event, nice job!

  • @destructovision Thanks, it's the way of the grain when I hand sanded it down. I would play it, but I'd like to have a better amp, and better pickups really before I play it to do it some justice (Broke A**), but it does work, lol

  • dude Nice!!!! you even put a whammy bar!!! totally not junk on all videos no one almost puts the whammy!!..just a question do you have to be experienced in carpentry and such?..idk anything about that and dont have tools since im still 16 to make but i have a book that teach you..and im thinkin on taking carpentry in school

  • Yeah I suggest taking the woodworking class. Not only does it give you knowledge about setting up jigs, safety, and tips and pointers about doing stuff the easy way; it also gives you access to various hand tools, band saw, table saw, router, scroll saws, planers, and if they were willing to shell out the money, the sandmax. Some tools aren't essential, but its so much easier, and you can put more quality into it.

  • and its your problem?... go play the drums or something

  • @fishfood45 because it has no color it looks like crap? come on man u couldnt do any better urself...

  • @ddrummer9111 shut up... whats a drum without a guitar playing by it? NOTHIN... so go be dumb somewhere else

  • @AkatsukiArts oh yeah, my very first guitar was an "Epi" strat copy, very budget minded guitar, but all in all, a pretty quality guitar, considering i paid 100 bucks for it; great beginners guitar..at least mine was, i imagine it was made in the early to mid 90's, as i bought it in a pawn shop in '99.

  • epiphone do strat copies? lol

  • @bushidoway internet high five :D
