  • whats that pickguard called with the kinda crystaly look off it ?

  • Pearloid. Look up pearloid pickguard on google.

  • Can you make a tutorial of how to do that thing you do at 0:26? If not, could you at least point me in the direction of something that can show me how?

  • That's a flamenco technique I picked up from Professor Coleman at Saddleback College. I noticed Doyle Dykes using it in his country playing and I started throwing it in randomly. Kinda cool eh?

    I don't know how to spell it but it's called (rastiatho) Could someone help me here?

    It would be hard to explain in words but here I go;

    post your thumb stationary on the low E string then one finger of the left hand at at a time 3 2 1 v 3 2 1 ^ 3 2 1 v 3 2 1 ^ I don't use the little finger. Help?

  • Is this your favorite overall guitar because youve assembled it yourself?

  • @thebostonfan100 I had all these parts given to me and I did the best I could to make a class-A guitar. Is turned out great but not my favorite. My Gibson 175 I'm playing like crazy these days. Thanks for your interest.

  • I THINK PEOPLE SHOULD STOP BUYING GUITARS AND BUILD THEIR OWN!! ...WE NEVER KNOW WHAT THE NEXT "STRAT" OR "TELE" WILL BE. AND NO MATTER WHAT, YOU WILL BE VERY PLEASED WITH IT!! IVE BUILD AND SOLD ABOUT 8 GUITARS ALREADY AND I LOVE EM ALL!! THERES NOTHING BETTER!!

  • @johnhguitar sweet tanks

  • A Tele is my favorite electric guitar---but doesn't necessarily have to be a Fender---I like some other Tele type guitars too---the Yamaha Pacifica is like a Tele and plays good. I knew a girl when I was in college who had a AMES Telecaster style guitar she liked a lot------has anyone out there ever heard of an Ames Tele?

  • I've played a Fender Telecaster, a standard one, best guitar I've ever played. But I haven't played a lot of guitars though.

  • hi john excellent video. Fender have brought out a James Root signitature which has an ebony fretboard.
