"I feel entertained " is my favorite line. Most people enjoy watching others have fun, and that makes this odd video very interesting. Please keep up the oddball ideas for the fun of it. I think they will do well.
Wrapping the guitar in foil was pure genius, and looked awesome. I'm going to remember that. I also particular liked the gold Paisley prior to having more paint put on it. I didn't know you have Art skills. That was fun. Thanks
I don’t know about the foil but that purple burst paisley is awesome. Never thought I’d like it but I really do. I’m wondering if wrapping it in foil will work like some super shielding or if it will effect the electronics at all?
Matt Shaw without being conductively connected to any other shielding or any of the electronics thanks to the paint covering it, it won’t have any impact on the electronics.
@@UnrestingSpirit Placebo effect, maybe. The shielding doesn’t encapsulate everything, so it doesn’t become a true faraday cage to cut out the hum. The grounding of the building you’re in, and other interference creating devices has more impact. A soldering iron will cause insane buzzing, and you’ll hear a sound at home that you won’t hear at any shop you take it to for repair. The commercial grounding of the building will have you feeling crazy for not hearing at the shop what you know you’re hearing at home. I still shield when a customer asks, because the placebo effect is no joke. Most still insist on copper too, because it blocks a few more frequencies than aluminum, even though they’re not frequencies a guitar is affected by. Plus everything above about it being security theater for a guitar.
I was so ready to hate this, and then you did it again. It looks super cool. I think I'd ditch the purple burst, and obviously a thick clear and sanding for that 'professional' shine. The drawn paisley was awesome.
@@60CycleHumcast In all seriousness, I have several guitars with an Aluminium Foil Tape base layer for the finish. The theory is that, should I NOT like the results, I can peel off the tape rather than having to laboriously remove a finish. I've never disliked the results enough to peel one. Some guitars, I just left foil-coated. It gets dull and worn in interesting patterns. If a bit gets ripped, I just stick more foil tape on...
@@60CycleHumcast Ryan, put 'GFS Gold Foil Single Coil Pickups,' in that guitar! It would tie the aluminum neck and purple foil Paisley body together perfectly! They're cheep and and GFS's website is having a sale right now!
@@Reginaldesq Joking aside, a thin layer of tinfoil - with a tenuous connection to ground - is no use as a shield. 《SCREWS TINFOIL HAT INTO A BALL AND THROWS IT AWAY. ;-)
Ive watched this again and absolutely love how this came out! These are exactly the examples of why i dig this channel- hobbyist experiments with guitars, parts and imagination. Keep doing your thing Ryan. Sweet guitar finish and neck. Plus, that green marguerita strat is killer.!
Baguley is handing out $750 guitar necks now? I wish I could remember the brand but there’s a brand of foil that’s twice as thick as Reynolds and doesn’t wrinkle as much, very cool idea Ryan.
You have a fantastically creative mind! By the time I finished watching, my face literally ached from smiling. You have ignited so many ideas. I`m off to my workshop now. Thank you Ryan. Cheers 🍷
This is going to be really cool in 10-20 years after a natural relic! Also, I think this guitar needs some special pickup variation instead of just regular SSS. HSS or maybe even HSH, and then with some kind of weird pickups, like with the HSH you could put a lipstick style in there, or maybe one of those rail humbuckers in the middle with either HHS or HSH. Or if you do decide on SSS then one of those rails in the middle would be really cool as well! Or maybe filtertrons? That would be amazing too.
I wrapped an old Japanese LP copy in foil, back in the late 80s, with a similar look (maybe slightly smoother) to yours, but I left it at that and didn't sand or paint it. I tended to paint/wreck most of my guitars back then - my favourite being an SG shape that I painted the Band Big Black's album "Atomizer" on the front and "Songs About F***ing" on the back.
Ryan, at first I thought that you had completely lost your mind, yet as you carried on with it, it was like reading a good book, I couldn't wait until you turned the page! First, I found myself asking if you were right or left-handed. Overall, this turned out to be a very exciting experiment! Thanks much for your insanity!
i didn’t know you’re a leftie until i saw you hold the pen with your left hand. nice drawing by the way. have you ever tried to play guitars for lefties? but i personally would love the whole silver look before you spray painted purple and pink on it. with a silver or gray pickguard board.
60 Cycle Hum brilliant! Please do more crazy stuff like this. I’m not allowed to tattoo through covid restrictions here in Melbourne so things like this are literally keeping me going brother!
I'd love to see you do a reverse burst! Like the "outline" is the lighter color, with it darker toward the center. I've always been curious to see a finish like that, but I never see anyone do it.
Just my 2 cents. I used to do candy paints on model cars. Silver base coat with any candy color is terrific. Gold base coat will give interesting changes. Candy apple red on gold is a lovely purple. And I loved your paisley work. My brother did a guitar in hydro-dipping for me. Fantastic result. Check out the possibilities.
Ryan, you really have a taste for the bold, off norm, going off the beaten path. I commended you Sir!. I would have gone or stuck with the silver, chrome, tin foil, and then the black pick guard and aluminum neck. You just inspired me to possibly take a sportscaster I have with dual lipstick pickups in bridge and neck position and do the silver surfer concept I suggested when you asked for comments. If you don't mind of course? Most of my Strats are sea Foam, and my wife thinks there are too many that color. So the adventure just may have to happen.
This is so awsome. I have had the same idea for a bass. German Sandberg are doing it. I had a bass from them that had this metal finish and it looked awsome. So thanks for doing it so I could see how you did it ;-)
A-May-Zing! Google search "strat aluminum pickguard". That foil body and aluminum neck need an aluminum pickguard. They have them with all sorts of surface textures and etching. Gotta keep that theme going. Inspiring sir, Inspiring.
That looks stunning for it being made out of foil, very cool idea! I think if i were to try this i would gently hammer the foil rather than sanding it.
I like the effect you got with the foil. If the spray adhesive is not working so well, maybe using gold leafing size might work? I might try this with copper tape over a scratchplate.
I've spent hours of unnecessary research on some forums in thread about finding perfect paisley pattern. Your video became a reminder that black and white over olive green paisley can be achieved using freaking Sharpie. Thanks a lot ❤️
The Foil Idea is great I think. I have a Les paul jr. body that I plan to refinish and this fired me up for that. I don't know if the paisley works with that body shape but maybe I can do something slightly diff. Thanks Ryan, I'm on my way to home deport!
Keep going with it! Looks rough and ready, and I've loved many a guitar that could be described thusly. While you're doing the GFS thing, I'd grab a set of their gold minihumbucker pickups, and roll that configuration. Think it'd be cool!
I’m impressed! That looks really cool! I love the kandy and burst colors, and the hand-drawn gold paisleys (good job on those!) are a nice touch. Now-take a clear pickguard and paint it gold metallic on the underside; that’ll give you a similar look to a gold-anodized aluminum guard without having the gold wear off like it does on aluminum. Gold Lace Alumitone pickups will look great on that, and they sound good too. Gold hardware to bring the whole look together and it’ll be kool! The Lord Of The Bling!
If you need an Idea for your next finish project have you heard of a cloth top finish? It's something I've seen done by Texas Toast guitars, but it's basically taking craft store fabric and gluing it to the body to give it a cool graphic print! (depending on the fabric you use) I think with a cool funky pattern and maybe a burst to help blend it in so you don't see a seam on it would be a super awesome look!! Loving all these finish projects btw!! Definitely giving me inspiration for some of my projects I've been sitting on
Looks cool what about using wall paper like a "granys couch" also would like to see some of the cheap pedals put in to the guitar coz ill probably give it a go myself soon
Unbelievable... I had a band in high school named 60 Cycle Hum LMAO! Our guitarist's Dad said that's what it sounded like coming from the Garage. Thanks for an interesting demo.
def prefer this over the dip Glarry. The close up pics are more glaring then at a distance where I think this pink/purple paisley fetish looks pretty great.
i really need to learn to fix butched bodies, because i have been trying for a year to make my first guitar look cool (Yamaha Pacifica 2003)... i may try to do a wrap on aluminum and copper stripes or something
The concept sounded cool in the beginning, and I really like the result! I totally agree that you could have stopped at any of those steps and had a cool and unique finish. I'm excited to see this with pickups. I'm not sold on the black pickguard, but it totally works if you don't want to buy another.
Hi Ryan, I love the colour you've got on this, and the paisley looks great too. Do you think the foil has actually made much difference? I'm always refinishing my guitars as I get bored with their colours, and I've been inspired by this as I've always wanted a pink paisley strat, but I was thinking of skipping the foil, spray it pink, add the paisley and then burst and clear coat it. I did really dig the look of just the foil covered guitar - that'd be interesting to see what that looks like with LOTS of layers of clear coat.
That paisley came out really well! 💪 I would like a heavy silver metallic sparkle instead of the foil. ✨ Maybe the silver flake with black paisleys drawn?
I loved watching this trainwreck! Prep work is everything, and putting a rough surface at the base destroyed all hope of a nice finish. Silver flake base would have made a much better body. But. Your paisely drawing was nice. Watching a few videos would have taught you about flash time and using the 2k finish.
Gold lipsticks, hum bridge, single neck, with a Dan Armstrong regular middle, with gold trem and tuners. If you going outlandish, go full out. That would sound amazing too. And I'm always a sucker for black pickguards, maybe a pearl? Or maybe black trem and tuners?
Awesome idea I love it,it's turned out great 😁. I'm the same really impatient so cut a lot of corners 😅. I'm currently trying to finish my first ever guitar attempt that I started about 20 years ago ,tried multiple times to paint it but keep ruining it 😅,could be because it's pine. I might do something like you could be fun 😀
Looks really good! Great job with drawn paisley print. I believe I would’ve used a silver or gold base color instead of foil. Then you can add your artistic touches and when you sand in between clear coats, try a very fine sand paper with water. You’ll get a mirror smooth finish.

Today on 60 Cycle Yum, join Chef Ryan as he preps and bakes us up a sweet "Ryan's Wrap" branded Re-Fin treat that is oh-so-tasty. 👍
lolol
You shouldn't have sanded the the foil! A good lesson on "if it isn't broken, don't fix it)!

for me the purple burst is the best part

What might be cool is the aluminum foil, and then over the top of that van-halenish stripes of aluminum HVAC tape.
I really enjoy how you do what you like and not care if it's appealing to the masses.

That foil wrapped stage reminded me of the Noodles Duct-tape sig Talman. Very cool.
The purple and gold foil pen looks good too. Especially without the burst
a 100% new idea!!! one thing, besides the cool finish, this is the best shielded guitar I've ever seen...
You're an Artist! It ended up looking far better than I thought it could! Well Done Sir!!
Great touch with your pen. You are amazing with paisley, great job!

the world needs more paisley guitars
Looks like a hippy got ahold of a buddy's guitar and psyched it up for him. I dig it! Reminds me of my early days!
Was amazed how well you did the paisley. I think the best stage was Candy Pink and paisley!!!
Hey fellow-Lefty; that was some impressive, freehand paisley illustration...

Aluminum foil and clearcoat the pickguard ... burnish it with a 2x4 block to flatten the peaks on the pickguard ?
