Welcome to the portal into my universe! In this realm you can travel to guitar factories near and far. Imbibe on the magical cocktails I create that are elixirs to the soul. Transform yourself through vintage suits, fabulous hats, haberdashery and eyewear. Experience the music that churns the deep, dark waters of my imagination. I try to post videos regularly on guitars, guitar factory tours, hats, vintage clothing, suits, glasses and eyewear, cocktails and wine.
Taylor Guitar Factory Tecaté, Mexico: Guitar Production
I am a purveyor of stringed musical instruments (among others things). This is a video of the Taylor Guitar Factory in Tecaté, Mexico. While I did not add in narration to the video, I tried to format and edit in a way that the story tells itself. From wood storage and processing to tops, backs, sides, necks, fretting and polish.

Hola cómo puedo contactarme con la fábrica, necesito muchas guitarras!!
There's a lot of s*** in this comment section Great video! Who is the jazz group covering "fade to Black"? Despite the hate in this comment section, I actually really appreciated it. Super cool cover
9:41 I love the tamagatchi music playing in the backround
What Wood for Its neck is it?? My home is near with guitar home industry..electrik and acustic guitar.. Indonesia
Y el nitro las quiebra
I would like to know what are the requirements to be able to work in one of your factories?? I love guitars and like many I would also like to know how to take care of them and build them: any advice???

My guitar is 25 years old now and still nice guitar to play.
What kind of hat is that?
Looks yummy 😋.
Its not Takameenee. Its Tak-a-me-né.
Min 2.49 the dude in black is Mune (right ?) i work with him back in the early 90tis at ESP Europe (in Düsseldorf/ Germany) I was the salesman back then
That looks so cool and suits you well. I really wish more people wore hats, they add so much character. I started wearing a black wool homburg this year for no reason other than to try something new, currently have a crow & magpie feather in it. Now i need a hat pin! And might have to try a Bolero next. Cheers.🎩
I have a baby from them that l adore. It smokes my baby Martin made just down the street. Taylor rules
I have a Taylor from Mexico and its just as good as the us models.
Great video! About the documentary (see comment below), how can I reach you? I can't seem to find any contact information on your channel. Thank you!
Is there a track list for the music used in this video? It's amazing
Love my two Yamahas!!!
I finally own a GS MINI (Rosewood)..although it's a used guitar i'm really happy with it..
Meraviglia!!!!❤!!!!
it makes me so grateful to know that so many people worked hard to make my guitar
I'm wondering what the salary of a worker in this factory is. Or can Mexicans be paid much less than the same workers in USA ?
Thank you very much for assembling my guitar. Unfortunately, I couldn't see exactly when mine was on display.
These poor workers making 50 cents an hour with no bathroom breaks.Andy Powers and his criminal cohorts still selling MIM gutars for $1200 😢
They sell guitars not gutars
What is the machine doing at 3:24? Is it leveling the frets?
No. Rather confident the machine is a belt sander. So, it levels the finger board (fretboard).
Looks pretty hand made to me
ESP. Simply the best.
Nothing compares. To ESP.
Is it a Nike factory? No, Taylor guitars! The word manufacture was wrong...
u know u gonna see some fire handmade shit when u see some green machines
100% employee owned! I’m glad I bought my guitar from them. Big baby over here.
Can I contact you about the possibility of using a couple of shots from your video in a documentary I'm making?
Certainly
Great! How can I reach you?@@BradleyJohnson13
@@BradleyJohnson13 Hi again! How can I reach you? I can't seem to find any contact information on your profile. Thank you.
@@BradleyJohnson13 Hi again! That's great, thank you. How can I reach you? I can't seem to find any contact information on your channel.
These are more "hand made" that the ones made in the US.
Best guitar I own
I immediately buy 2 ESP Guitars if they not showing this ugly e-ii on the headstock. E-II M-II looks and sounds weird af.
Impressed with the love and care that goes into each guitar…😏
Bought my daughter's guitar made there. Surprisingly well made and good setup off the shelf for $700.
hi Brad, how about bringing over some of Takamines hi end guitars back to the states.... Takamine used to have exceptional master luthier made guitars and you cant get them here anymore yet they are still sold overseas
Yes, working on that. You are correct
@@BradleyJohnson13 I have a Nashville TNV series from 2003, after hundreds of gigs its in bad shape. I am looking for a replacement for it but theres nothing even close in terms of materials offered from Takamine that I can buy in the states. Do you have an estimated timeline of when this might happen? If its much longer I'm just gonna have to find another used TNV, and even that is near impossible because people dont sell them.
Thanks for the lesson; I learned a lot. You've got me subscribed.
Thank you for building such incredible Guitars...Everything Yamaha makes is great ..I own a 1989 Pacifica 721 that i Love .my brother bought a Revstar. I want so bad a SG 1500...I love Yamaha guitars..Japanese Guitars are some of worlds best ..their craftsmanship is perfect
Nice to see so much of the actual hands on work. After buying a 214ce dlx it’s cool to see what went into your item. I still feel the American factory is only higher because of bloated salaries. Damn shame America has become so expensive and most workers are unhappy.
Interesting@!😮
@BradleyJohnson13 - In what city was this factory? Do you know if this factory is called “Yamaha Music Craft”?
(In the description) Hamamatsu is the city, which is in Shizuoka prefecture, and is also home to Kawai. Yamaha Music Craft is the name for the division of the company that manufactures and sells wood.
Best guitars in the world right now.
ESP 🇯🇵👌🏼
after watching this, i feel like my $700 GS mini is not worth it. Its like some sheets of plywood being glued together and varnished.
lol you’re clueless. $700 is cheap for a guitar. Some of these guitars in this video are $2000
ESP 🇯🇵 for ever ! I work for ESP, when there was only ESP Tokyo , ESP Düsseldorf and ESP New York back in the late 80tis early 90tis I work for ESP Düsseldorf germany as a salesman , awesome times FCK ESP USA ! (im sorry but that’s not a original ESP to me)
Hello Bradley! I really want a Made in Japan Yamaha guitar, where can I get one? I love the LL series and Red Label series guitars
Hey Bradley, When the CNC carves those necks, are they only rough carving it so the craftsman can finish final shaping it by hand, or does it carve it to the final thickness. Do you remember if the craftsmen do any work to the neck after it comes from the machine?
Yes. They get finished by hand. CNC takes away the bulk of the repetitive work
Is it still possible today to order a black Explorer MX 2 model, exactly the same as those used by James Hetfield in the early 90s?
