    Never clicked on a video so fast.
    So nice of you to build that for your friend Eddie, he's in all his glory.. what a beautiful guitar!
    Brad Nowell is one of the most underrated guitarists and artists to ever grace this Earth.
    He had an IQ of 142 by the time he was only 12 years old, he attended a school called MGM Mentally Gifted Minors.
    Eddie has good taste in music.. if you can't tell, i'm a huge Sublime fan too.
    I'll be making a replica of Brad's guitar, thanks for posting.

    Dude, you are an incredibly talented builder, that Brad guitar is phenomenal. The guy was such an underrated player, for me he is one of the best players from the 90s decade. When you ad a drummer like Bud, that was an amazing reggae player but had the versatility to quickly and cleanly transition to punk rock drumming. I’m a bass player Eric is one of my inspirations to start playing. Those three guys were magic together(the addiction would hurt the live shows at times but man they always played their guts out), a real shame Brad never got to enjoy his hard earned success. I hope your friend enjoys that amazing tribute!

    Dan McDonald used to work on that guitar when we worked together at the Long Beach Arena. We worked the swing shift in the Electrical
    Shop. He would shape it and sand it during his break.

    If you want to make another custom piece that's really different I've been looking for something for a while and there is almost NOTHING out there like this outside of super custom stuff. I've been looking for a fretless, short scale, hollow/semi-hollow body electric bass. You would think that there would be more like that, even as niche as those specs are, but there's almost nothing on the internet like that. I think it would make a really unique project.

    • @17Codiferus
      @17Codiferus 4 месяца назад

      Pro Tip: Use whatever suits YOU the best. Whatever microtonal difference there is between gauges can be accounted for with EQ and would be lost in a full-band-mix context anyways.
      Even the legendary SRV switched away from his infamous 13's after one of his favorite techs demonstrated it was less demanding of his fingers (on brutal show schedules) with minimal tone difference.
      Guitar players are a superstitious/ideological bunch trying desperately to avoid the obvious truth: the overwhelming majority of any players sound is coming from the players themselves. Gear choice has _far_ less impact on the music (within reason, a blues jr is never going to be a slo-100) than most of us are comfortable admitting. There's a mountain of evidence out there of iconic musicians sounding remarkably like themselves through completely random rigs.
      Keep on jamming.

      The family still owns it, Brad's son just played it on stage. Check out Eddie Villa's channel (the guy I gave this guitar to). He has footage from Jakob Nowell playing it on stage with the rest if sublime: www.youtube.com/@EddieVilla
