I just discovered these videos a few hours ago, and am enjoying them almost as much as you seemed to enjoy creating this work of art, Ben! And as a thank you, and in case you still haven't found out why Mod Podge is called that, I can tell you! It is a play on the French term, decoupage, which means "to cut out", or "a cutting out", and is the name of the crafting technique of using overlapping cut pieces of paper and lacquer, glue or varnish to bind them. This craft became popular in the United States the 1960s and into the early 1970s when I was a kid. However, as it became popular, it was soon discovered that most of the binding products were hard to work with, resin based, and took a long time to dry. So naturally, someone came up with a formula which worked better than any of the other common products for this application- a water based, quick drying glue of the proper consistency to adapt to differing methods of application- like brushing on (as you did in the video), sponging on, dripping, dispensing from a tipped bottle, using fingers, and of course, full dip-coating - and that was cheap to produce, easy to clean up- very important when a classroom full of 3rd graders are making collages- and which dried and stayed clear. Obviously, this was a superior product for the production of "modern decoupage", or.... Mod Podge, for short! The second half of the name is simply a phoenetic spelling of the back half of the French word, decoupage. I can't say with 100% certainty that this is indeed the true origin of the product's name, but I suspect if it is not exact, it is very close to it, as it is the explanation which my paternal Grandmother gave to me when I was about 7- back when Mod Podge was still a fairly new product. It makes sense to me, even some 45 years later, and I am willing to bet my Grandma didn't lie, make it up, or even stretch the truth- it wasn't in her character. She didn't tell fibs to keep children happy- she told true stories of her youth, or my father's childhood antics for that. And when asked a direct question, she would admit she didn't know, unless she did know. So I do trust this explanation, and even if you are skeptical, I do hope you enjoyed reading it as much as I enjoyed reminiscing, and remembering my Gran'ma, Ramona (Gahr) Thole.
I've been playing repairing and building guitars for over 50 years. Very enlightening. Thank you for sharing some of your inspirational ideas. Time to buy me another kit guitar and have some fun.
I'm absolutely in love with this guitar and I cannot wait to see what it going to become. It's like watching your child grow up to be someone amazing. I would absolutely love to have this guitar. I'm a huge fan, and I've just started watching your RUclips videos when the first video of this guitar was posted. Since then, I've binge watched so many of your builds. You are an inspiration, and I am going to start building my own kit guitars and see where it takes me. Thanks for sharing your work. You're awesome.!
Your excitement is highly contagious I love the sheer joy you bring to this and every other build I see that you have so much fun like a child living it's dream carry on like this good sir
Love this build! I can't wait to see this guitar finished. I must say I think Ben Crowe is one of the best if not the best presenter among the guitar you tube channels. More please sir!
I'm loving the great build Ben, I've been watching your videos for a while now and they're really inspiring, and I am amazed how you can do all of this carving and bevelling of the sound holes by hand as well as all the other things you do in other videos, e.g.the complication, its just amazing! I am building my own guitar this year because of you too! All the best in lockdown
Thought my vision was changing, but after careful examination have come to the conclusion that your tattoos are becoming more visible. Adding color, or just a touch up? Very interesting project, happy to see the joy in your work. So many people just show up for the paycheck, really great to see a craftsman playing and giving the rationale for his choices along the way. Carry on my good fellow, what be next?
I'm absolutely loving this series. Its the sheer creativity that is making it for me. You've inspired me to make sawdust from one of my guitars again you clever boy. Right...to the shop....
I have been "tinkering" with guitars for 30+ years. The first ones I actually made were in the shape of an axe head and the other was a trace out of an ibanez destroyer that I got at the local music store. Mostly tweaking different things, playing with wiring, components etc. Lately I have been considering getting a kit and not just put it together but to make it my own. Your ideas of carving/beveling the outside like you did in the first couple videos I think is both very interesting and would look to make the guitar easier and more comfortable to play. The thing I am liking the most so far out of this build is this video. Who knew you could make a burrito holder out of a guitar :)
Just happened across your channel because of this build, and now you have me exploring past builds.....damn you!! I have no time as it is! Wonderful design! You, sir, have a deliciously twisted imagination, and admirable skills! Is the contest open to subscribers from the US? Thank you.
Norm...welcome aboard!! If you're going to try to watch everything, well...good luck - we'll see you in about 2020!! (It IS worth it, but don't blame us for the lost time!!).
This is one of those rare channels that always gets a like from me even before the video starts, as I know it'll be fantastic. Great work on this kit guitar, Ben. I've got my fingers crossed, having placed an order this month.
Not sure how I found you... but this build and channel is very cool... binge watched to 4 at work.... don't tell anyone. Hope you do more creative builds.
Dude this is an amazing build. Ive been following this from EP 1. I considered buying a t-shirt or a pick or something from you guys just to get into the draw but I'm in New Zealand so it's not really practical. This inspires me to finish all those guitar projects that are just sitting around. You are a legend Sir.
Really looking forward to seeing how this ends up. I am the only person who thinks that this section looks like a bird? With all that silver foil it could even be a Metal Duck!
Notice the different colouration to the two parts of the guitar. The Hollowed/Be-Hexagoned (?) piece has been handled so much that the oils of your hands have darkened that piece by comparison to the rest of the body.
Will you install a lighting system to give depth and color? You could add different color lighting tape around the interior sides and top to have the interior glow in static, random cycling, or programmable colors. Better yet, make it like a light organ that changes colors as you play, with light colors matching output frequencies and light intensity matching volume levels. BTW, I'd personally paint that whole part as dark a purple as possible just this side of black, with green highlights, then paint the chamfers gold or cut brass or copper pieces to line the chamfers. That with a subtle light kit inside would be stunning.
Love Ben, hate Facebook! It is good to see I'm not alone, NOT on Facebook! The guitar will be what it will be. With what Ben & Company have done in the past, it will be very good! Thanxz
Mod Podge is essentially Elmer's white glue watered down a bit as I recall. I've seen some cool RUclips vids of people pasting & sealing things like comic book pages to guitar bodies, lots of possibilities. Can't wait for the 90 hour build vids later as well as the completion of this guitar, looking really cool thus far!
maybe should have gone with brass foil with this one Ben...nothing says steam punk more than brass and aluminium just REALLY cheapens the look of a GREAT guitar!
just saw this and I have to say it is an impressive build and I personally would love to have it. I would also like to say that I would have made a slight change in that instead of using the aluminum foil I would have went copper. I personally think copper would have looked superb against the natural wood colors in a flat or gloss clear finish.
I use Mod Podge for my sculptures this year and sold the first one for $150! I would send a photo but can't in comments. BTY my sister and her family live in Orkney!
Another technique would be to use Size and gold leaf/silver leaf/copper leaf, with which you can achieve either a rippled or smoot effect, and is a technique I have used to add gold leaf to inlays, etc., and may be easier to achieve a similar result. Quo @ Quo Guitars
It looks like it is going to be wonderful and I'd love to win it so I checked the shop. But I'm no luthier so I mostly fancied Christophers master built or perhaps the Raw Series Descendant. And it just seemed an excessive way to enter the draw. Very enjoyable series though - right up there with the 12 and 9 hour builds.
go to the art supply store and get a silver leaf kit it will turn out much better and be a hellava lot easier because you only need to paint the size on the parts you want the silver.
You talked about mesh, I'm assuming that's out of the picture or you wouldn't see the foil, adding the edge light might be cool to reflect off of it too, I don't really know how well all that shiny newness will fit on a guitar from some dystopian future. I had a little chuckle at all the crinkled up foil, but of course you can burnish that. Just waiting for the payoff with eveyone else! Boy, I really hate suspense!
Not sure if I'm sold on the tin foil around the honeycomb. I quite enjoyed the wood look of it, and also if I wanted it to look metallic I personally would have wanted it to be less... crinkly? If that makes sense. Still, you're the designer, not me, so I definitely want to see what you do with it and how it looks in the final build! Damn, I dont even play guitar (not for lack of trying), and this just makes me want to build them lol.
just started watching this ep and as soon as you started the tin foil I thought that copper tape might be a better looking option. the copper tape you use to line the pickup pocket. but don't know if copper tape would be as workable as the thin tin foil
1) I hate fb and got rid of my account 6 ish years ago. 2) elucidate is a good word. Perhaps not word of the week worthy though. 3) repeating things. On the first or second video in this series, you said (I may be paraphrasing slightly) "one of the things I don't like in cyber punk is using superfluous things that aren't needed." It gave me a chuckle. 4) I might just give the CG Instagram a look.
Judging by the quality of the wood that you use, i will concider your prodect first when i decide to build my own. Always wanted to do it from scratch but at this time, a good kit seems more plausable since im limited on tools.
Surprised you didn't use some form of copper tape for the hexagons, given your previous long-standing "affair" with all things "Cupric". (Stanley Cupric???) :-)
How do you spell Facebook? - "BIG F**KING BROTHER" - I am amazed at how easily people have followed each other over the edge into this insidious void. Wake up from your trance and see what is going on! You did ask for comments. Sorry but I couldn't resist. Great videos by the way - Thanks.
Cool Design, only i have one Problem with the AluminiumFoil technique. Why did u not use Aluminium Roofing Tape? It is a little thicker, and will give such a nicer surface to look at and to reflect the light to create the Sparkle that thing needs. Otherwise Very Nice jobs on all the other work you have been doing. Keep it up Sir
I use copper tape for shielding and it's infuriating to work with as the adhesive has significantly more grab than the tensile strength of the tape so it it's difficult to do complex shapes without tearing it.
I can barely swap out a pickup without feeling like I want to throw myself under a train... I still find this really addictive to watch though. Oh, I hate Facebook and am not on Facebook.
Kind of looks like heat shielding foil that you see in aerospace and other high temperature applications, so it's fitting, because cyberpunk isnt meant to be sleek and brand new, with the occasional exception. Also, It's sad that there's no point in entering the competition (and thus buying stuff from the store) because I'm left handed and could never play the guitar if i got it.
I've just spent 17 minutes of my life watching bald guy glueing some tinfoil onto cut in half guitar body. I enjoyed every second of that process. Am I weird?
Enjoying series - as I enjoy all of your vids... If I was doing this? I'd paint the interior of this piece flat black and work from there. Just sayin'....
Typo in the link in the description. The address for the shop is: crimsonguitars.com/shop/ This is an awesome looking build so far. I can't wait to see what's next!
I'm new to guitar building, and perhaps I missed it in the videos but... Why do you use tin foil in the cavity? Just for aesthetics or does it also have a functional use? 🙂
Thank you for the inspiration crimsons guitars! You guys inspired me to start making guitsrs and today i got accepted into my countries luthier school
Took the time and effort to bevel the honeycomb - I am officially obsessed with this fantastically talented dude's guitars.
And I am very grateful that you took the time to leave such a nice comment, thank you! Ben
Ben, your excitement for this build is infectious. Can’t wait to see how it ends up looking!

It's all about having fun, I honestly think that is the most important thing in this life, enjoy what you do! Thanks for watching! B

Thank you so much. Welcome to the Crimson clan, we hope you enjoy your stay. Good luck with your own builds.
You are having a blast doing this project.
Your excitement is highly contagious I love the sheer joy you bring to this and every other build I see that you have so much fun like a child living it's dream carry on like this good sir
Love this build! I can't wait to see this guitar finished. I must say I think Ben Crowe is one of the best if not the best presenter among the guitar you tube channels. More please sir!
Turns well made kit into priceless work of art!!!
It really is nice to see someone who is enjoying their work!
There are few things more fun to me than making.. Thank you for watching! B
I'm loving the great build Ben, I've been watching your videos for a while now and they're really inspiring, and I am amazed how you can do all of this carving and bevelling of the sound holes by hand as well as all the other things you do in other videos, e.g.the complication, its just amazing!

These episodes are never long enough!!! Man I really hope I win this beast, every episode I fall more and more in love with it hahaha
Thought my vision was changing, but after careful examination have come to the conclusion that your tattoos are becoming more visible. Adding color, or just a touch up? Very interesting project, happy to see the joy in your work. So many people just show up for the paycheck, really great to see a craftsman playing and giving the rationale for his choices along the way. Carry on my good fellow, what be next?
at ep6, i reallyy enjoy your excitement and creativity!! cant wait to see the end result!!!! ( yes i am watching this in Dec 2019 xD)

Norm Jacques pretty sure it’s world wide 🙂
Excellent! Thanks! :-)
This is how they get us Norm, I found these guys the same way! Now I'm hooked!
LOL.....Here's an idea: Let's blame the Russians!! ;-)
Norm...welcome aboard!! If you're going to try to watch everything, well...good luck - we'll see you in about 2020!! (It IS worth it, but don't blame us for the lost time!!).
This is one of those rare channels that always gets a like from me even before the video starts, as I know it'll be fantastic. Great work on this kit guitar, Ben. I've got my fingers crossed, having placed an order this month.
Ben really "sells" these guitars. I keep hoping they'll make a BASS KIT (hint hint, Lord Odin .. please.)
Mod Podge is short for "Modern Decoupage." Decoupage means taking a picture or pattern and gluing it to something else. Loving this series so far!
Man I wish this episodes were longer! I cant get enough!!!
never seen anything like this before, 10 outof ten for originallity
I'd love to see what this would look like with actual cast or cnc'd aluminum or steel inserts.
I'm very much enjoying the series!Learning and hoping to gain My own inspirations for a build!Thanks for sharing brother and good luck to all!
Mod Podge... designed for decoupage in the 60's or early 70's I think hence Mod and Podge as a take on a shortening of decoupage.
Not sure how I found you... but this build and channel is very cool... binge watched to 4 at work.... don't tell anyone. Hope you do more creative builds.
Dude this is an amazing build. Ive been following this from EP 1.

Great build thus far cannot wait to see the result. If we were on the same side of the pond I would certainly throw my name in the hat
That's some mighty fine work chamfering with a scalpel like that.
2:42
*Eyes widen with intrigue and awe !o.o!
Really looking forward to seeing how this ends up. I am the only person who thinks that this section looks like a bird? With all that silver foil it could even be a Metal Duck!
Mother of pearl inlays!!!
Notice the different colouration to the two parts of the guitar. The Hollowed/Be-Hexagoned (?) piece has been handled so much that the oils of your hands have darkened that piece by comparison to the rest of the body.
You put an amazing amount of Time and effort into this build. Thank you for sharing.
Perhaps a quiet LED with a queen bee inside the honeycomb would have ramped up the overall shock of the guitar :) well done bro :)
Will you install a lighting system to give depth and color? You could add different color lighting tape around the interior sides and top to have the interior glow in static, random cycling, or programmable colors. Better yet, make it like a light organ that changes colors as you play, with light colors matching output frequencies and light intensity matching volume levels.

Love Ben, hate Facebook! It is good to see I'm not alone, NOT on Facebook! The guitar will be what it will be. With what Ben & Company have done in the past, it will be very good! Thanxz
I am hoping you fix LEDs in the sound holes, I want to see how you power them. Great job so far, keep fighting the good fight.
An excellent series so far and can't wait to see it finished👍
Ooooo....I'm glad I got to #6
LED-strip on the inside?! .... your carving skills are excellent.
Mod Podge is essentially Elmer's white glue watered down a bit as I recall.

I personally think copper would have looked superb against the natural wood colors in a flat or gloss clear finish.
You should call this guitar "Trypophobia"
I'm really loving this new editing style!
I use Mod Podge for my sculptures this year and sold the first one for $150! I would send a photo but can't in comments. BTY my sister and her family live in Orkney!

Very enjoyable series though - right up there with the 12 and 9 hour builds.
Yes chap, no face book for me. This is going to be a nice guitar bro.
Thank you Mike. It was fun to remove all constraints and just play with this one! B
Haven't touched facebook (other than an odd messenger conversation here and there) in almost 2 years. Best decision ever.
Omg you are changing the tonal properties of the tonewood! :-D
go to the art supply store and get a silver leaf kit it will turn out much better and be a hellava lot easier because you only need to paint the size on the parts you want the silver.
You talked about mesh, I'm assuming that's out of the picture or you wouldn't see the foil, adding the edge light might be cool to reflect off of it too, I don't really know how well all that shiny newness will fit on a guitar from some dystopian future. I had a little chuckle at all the crinkled up foil, but of course you can burnish that. Just waiting for the payoff with eveyone else! Boy, I really hate suspense!
its looking sick so far mate
love watching your technique, betting this guitar will ooze thick sweet emanations, well done sir!
You should’ve put modge podge over the top of the foil too!!(just a thought/possible tip)
You're incredibly weird and I really like it, followed the build every video and love the progress.
I LIKE THE FACT THAT THE LINK TO WIN THE GUITAR IS A NON-FUNCTIONAL 404 PAGE. AWESOME!
Can't wait to see it finished
personally not a fan of the design aesthetic, but i can't deny the craftsmanship!
Aluminum on the inside and gold lead on the outside detail would have been an interesting choice.
Not sure if I'm sold on the tin foil around the honeycomb. I quite enjoyed the wood look of it, and also if I wanted it to look metallic I personally would have wanted it to be less... crinkly? If that makes sense.
Still, you're the designer, not me, so I definitely want to see what you do with it and how it looks in the final build! Damn, I dont even play guitar (not for lack of trying), and this just makes me want to build them lol.
Have really been enjoying this series! Great stuff :)
You, my friend, have some god damn patience.
just started watching this ep and as soon as you started the tin foil I thought that copper tape might be a better looking option. the copper tape you use to line the pickup pocket. but don't know if copper tape would be as workable as the thin tin foil
I find this man to be a delightful break from the norm 🙂
I feel like this video is a whole step back. Loved the wood look, now I can't help but think it looks really stupid.
I am currently bingeing my friend
thank you Ben
Bee nests on guitar look coooooooooool
Hmm I’m not sure about this build. Loved the skervesen style chunky half carve, but the hex holes aren’t doing anything for me.
i have to say , im surprised at the lack of copper leaf xP
It might be kind of cool to put some LED's in the hollowed out section.
1) I hate fb and got rid of my account 6 ish years ago.
2) elucidate is a good word. Perhaps not word of the week worthy though.
3) repeating things. On the first or second video in this series, you said (I may be paraphrasing slightly) "one of the things I don't like in cyber punk is using superfluous things that aren't needed." It gave me a chuckle.
4) I might just give the CG Instagram a look.
Judging by the quality of the wood that you use, i will concider your prodect first when i decide to build my own. Always wanted to do it from scratch but at this time, a good kit seems more plausable since im limited on tools.
I would’ve painted the inside satin black, but that’s just me!
Mod podge is apparently a shortened form of "Modern Decoupage", according to it's creator Jan Wetstone.
Ooh, i did not know that. It does the job well to be sure. B
Surprised you didn't use some form of copper tape for the hexagons, given your previous long-standing "affair" with all things "Cupric".
(Stanley Cupric???) :-)
How do you spell Facebook? - "BIG F**KING BROTHER" - I am amazed at how easily people have followed each other over the edge into this insidious void. Wake up from your trance and see what is going on! You did ask for comments. Sorry but I couldn't resist. Great videos by the way - Thanks.
first time ive seen anyone use an agate for burnishing aluminium foil :)
i love the design and all, but i loved how those woods looked so much i am a bit sad that you are covering them up.
Cool Design, only i have one Problem with the AluminiumFoil technique. Why did u not use Aluminium Roofing Tape? It is a little thicker, and will give such a nicer surface to look at and to reflect the light to create the Sparkle that thing needs. Otherwise Very Nice jobs on all the other work you have been doing. Keep it up Sir
Case of Seeing Something, pauzing the Video to Write Something up, press play to Have the precize Explanation you needed. Hahah
I use copper tape for shielding and it's infuriating to work with as the adhesive has significantly more grab than the tensile strength of the tape so it it's difficult to do complex shapes without tearing it.
This might look really cool on a Coppertop Guitar
Coppertop with the Hex Shapes made of Aluminum
Maybe even a carbon fiber guitar
I can barely swap out a pickup without feeling like I want to throw myself under a train... I still find this really addictive to watch though.
Oh, I hate Facebook and am not on Facebook.
Kind of looks like heat shielding foil that you see in aerospace and other high temperature applications, so it's fitting, because cyberpunk isnt meant to be sleek and brand new, with the occasional exception.
Also, It's sad that there's no point in entering the competition (and thus buying stuff from the store) because I'm left handed and could never play the guitar if i got it.
I've just spent 17 minutes of my life watching bald guy glueing some tinfoil onto cut in half guitar body. I enjoyed every second of that process. Am I weird?
go with it man
Enjoying series - as I enjoy all of your vids...
If I was doing this? I'd paint the interior of this piece flat black and work from there. Just sayin'....
Simply amazing!!
Typo in the link in the description. The address for the shop is: crimsonguitars.com/shop/
This is an awesome looking build so far. I can't wait to see what's next!
I'm really curious with the final view of this!
I'm new to guitar building, and perhaps I missed it in the videos but... Why do you use tin foil in the cavity? Just for aesthetics or does it also have a functional use? 🙂
im enjoying these video's mate thank you very much
If those are sound holes, wouldn't covering them with aluminium make a rattling sound?
Mod Podge = "Modern Decoupage"
Ben! I didnt realise you were in thor 3! :P
Sloth... Yes, the Skurge role has been pointed out numerous times before!
Tim Beaton glad I wasnt the only one to realise it :D
Can you guys do a hard tail strat kit?
