Beautiful guitar but I always love the Les Paul design
New challenge make a guitar (from scratch) like a Lutheir
Mike I am great fan of yours and I will love if you try something like Cosmo anki vector ....
As soon as he started playing Dire Straits music he got a sub from me
before you got the expensive parts dont you think it would be wise to make a cheaper one first so you dont wreck the expensive parts?
lutrea
The moment he said strat I knew sultans of swing was going to be played. Most famous strat song in my opinion
That wiring job reminded me of what it looked like behind my old stereo system back in the day. A giant multi colored bird's nest built by a drunken bird. Personally , I would probably put a heavier gauge strings (10's) on her to fatten that tone up a little. Otherwise , it's a beautiful guitar.
I love the Sultans of Swing outro. The whole video was amazing, I've watched it like 20 times ❤️
9:20 song?
@Jamie Nelson thanks
Dire Straits - Sultans Of Swing
3:18 is he gonna build s car ?
Can you give it to me I need a guitare in lebanon is 1500 $

Can someone tell me why this guy from Scotland talks like he lives in LA
Because Scotland isnt all one accent.
it would have been so much better if he nailed Sultans of Swing. but he didnt
I'm sorry but what about the R888 Toyo tyres and a car project in the background Mike? :))
Lucas Brar

Sultans of swing
Nice choices in the bit you played
Next video “building my own house”
definite top 10 most cursed guitars those pickups are just fucking hideous
@Sam21 yea
@Orpheas Malliamanis *in your opinion
The body is crap the pickups look fine Also that tele headstock looks like shit with the body And that finish on the body looks ugly
9:13 What song? please!

Sultans of Swing - Dire Straits
That has to the ugliest guitar finish I've ever seen personally, sounds great though
What kind of car is in the background when he is talking about the pickups
can u do a guitar cover for back in black??
He plays guitar as if he’s about to slap bass
@Zargle that's how you finger pick. You cant really keep your thumb in and your fingers apart, because this strings are so close together.
Jamie Nelson just the way his thumb is sticking out and he keeps all his fingers together. It looks like slapping bass
What? It's just fingerstyle.
You did it, you can everything now
Can't wait to get a les paul with strat pickup😀😀
No offence, but that would look shite.
You should Learn bass
7:43 my pp size

The song he’s playing at the end you can’t play with a pick it’s possible but it’s a rule if you know you know
awesome guitar, but I've got a question for you: how come that delicious food looks even better in a bowl than on a plate?
You gotta know the right things to search
Holdup that isnt 25 frets
Man I really want to get a guitar but I don’t know what the hell kinda guitar I would want
Jamie Nelson cool
@0.10 Mbps Leaning more towards alt rock or blues
Jamie Nelson I’m not sure but I’m leaning towards alternative
What kind of music do you want to play?
@Mike Boyd, I challenge you to learn guitar percussion and playing strings from the fret
This dude can play guitar too??? Jesus talk about jack of all trades
"A MODEST LIFESTYLE" you're fucking kidding us ? I tried to design a cheap guitar on the website it was > 600$
