That was an incredible learning experience. Thank you!

As usual, majestic contents! Thank you so much Garrett

beautifully played, Gary! I was really intrigued by the first video as I don't think I've ever heard you play on a cedar guitar before. All of the guitars have such a notable color palette for this music though, I really enjoyed all of the performances. Congrats and hope to see you soon.

and how do you get holes in it? Does it come in a sheet? Shall I google guitar shape balsa/w holes?

Nicely done Gary. The recorded sound of your guitar is lovely!

Hello. good show. Hmm,,,,I would like very much to see what pattern the bouncy particles would form with the strings on up to pitch, then with a violin bow make the SB undulate like crazy. and it does!. Have you or anyone else tried this.?? This method is how we find the "anti node for bridge location" on the guitars we make. But we don't use particles!! instead a K&K pick up glued on a pencil or a small stick, touching areas on the SB and passed through an amp. = Amazing acoustic revelations!! it's easy. Old Ernst might raise an eyebrow, he didn't have the electro wizardly things we have now.

Beautifully played.

very nice, lovely work

Bravo Gary! I love the way you play my music, so heartfelt. And that you also made these guitars, wow! They sound absolutely beautiful, so well balanced with a lovely sound. What a talent you are!

thank you!

Beautiful pieces, beautifully played on beautiful sounding instruments! Well done!

👏👏👏

Very nice Gary 🫶🏽 Congrats!! What a useful tool to possess to play like that 🫡

Can introduce your guitar n. What music instruments for recording

I'm currently laid up with covid. Your playing was just so lovely to listen to, and I love the tone of your guitar. Thank you.

Amazing! This luthier can play!

Beautiful!!

very cool! thanks for paying this forward... cheers

Muito lindo, parabéns!

fascinating a great great video thank you for the upload and education

Nice infomative video.is it because of the greater expension of the flatsawn board that it should be avoided.? Thanks

This is by far by new favorite channel! Thanks for sharing your techniques and truly demystifying the art of lutherie!

Excellent video series. Loving your approach with the objective scientific applications as well as the personalized insights. I’m wondering if you have experience with live back applications of your thinning approach? Do you experiment in that realm or use the more traditional rigid?

Hi Garrett, this is very exiting, you are giving really exact principles for guitar building, especially forming the tone. Thank you so much for this excellent job.

You rarely may see and hear a guitar playing luthier. Very high level performance. Very deep feeling of Bach.

First time I heared about this. Very interesting! Thank you very much.

How does double tops would work for steel strings guitar? I'm really curious. 😊

i invented the hinged bracing ststem. 😊

Meanwhile, the rest of the world tries to figure out how to feed themselves

this is the best explanation about “sounding” the “tone” wood on an acoustic instrument that I watched so far. And I did watch a lot of tapping videos where people want to come across as some kind of sound gourous, wanting to mystify the process and perhaps their own importance.. instead of just explaining the real world principles within which they operate. What I still don’t understand is why it has to be a wood plank and not some other material.

Fantastic work and a stunning end result.

These videos are gold. As an engineer getting into guitar making you scratch that itch for solid rational. Thank you.

Where does one get the balsa?

Quando la tavola sarà montata sul corpo chitarra con il manico , tastiera e ponte...TUTTO cambia...TUTTO cambia

You just overwelmed me. I'm a wanabe luthier on my free time. I've built about 10 string instruments. Each and every time there is something new to take in consideration. I had a narrow view of the sound and physics universe before. Now I'll have to take all of this in consideration too. Thanks so much for your time and effort. Loved the video. Explained it perfectly understandable for an idiot like me. Idiot for ideas... Best regards from Portugal

Dear Garrett, excellent video! You are very gererous to share your experience. Very inspiring, the information as well as the attitude. Thanks a lot and cordial greetings. Sascha

Hi Garrett, I really appreciate all of your videos. I was wondering your opinion on how much the age of the wood matters for a sound board (or even the back and sides). All things being equal with your precise flexibility measurements and bracing techniques, what difference would an aged piece of wood make in sound quality? Thanks!

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Thanks a lot! ☀️🌿✨👍🏻🙌🏻

May i ask where you bought the vacuumbag sealer strip? Ive been using a stickey compound but that is pretty finicky and needs to be replaced often.

Thank you for talking to our students Gary, and glad to see you made this presentation available to all!

great video, thank you for sharing your methods. Can i ask, do your guitars have a consistent body resonance? if so, can you asses at this stage, what resonance this guitar will end up at?

How can a get those books?

Hmm. We have an Vin. 1856 grand piano with a corrugated SB = bizarre.

Hello sir. Does the string tension affect the natural frequency patterns of the guitar?. Does it also affect the membranes, as skin on banjo? If yes, can we add braces to the membrane to craft some sound, or it that just not as usefull?

very informative thank you

Great video, making the mysterious guitar voice so clear.

9:35 such a great view, i dont think ive seen that before

Incredible video. Thanks a lot for the idea and the pedagogy !

Very interesting presentation. To my ear the engelman spruce when tapped always has a more musical sound. When you look at the spectrum it appears that the engelman has lower values between the harmonics -- the curve dips down more. Could you please comment on whether this damping between harmonics is a real factor in how musical an instrument sounds? Thank you.
