You’ve really upped your game with your production skills.
Thank you for showing this man the respect he deserves.
Well done.
I ordered a few picks from Patrick back in 2016 and they changed the way I played from that point onward. The amount of power I was able to generate just by using those picks was astonishing and carried over when I resumed using conventional picks. The man is a living legend. Thanks for this documentary!
Thank you so much for your kind words! I'm truly humbled to hear how the picks have impacted your music. It's feedback like yours that inspires me to continue crafting with passion and dedication!
I've got a variety of his plectrums. They are worth getting into.
Ahhh Patrick, I have been following him on Facebook for years! He makes awesome guitars and guitar picks!
I love his picks! He built me a HUGE triangular one with fluorescent bits in it, I absolutely love that pick.
I have multiple hand problems, so huge respect just for the idea and thought process behind the picks, unfortunately, I'm a bass player and picks are forbidden.
I get real Carl Thompson vibes from Patrick. A man so in love with his craft that it just oozes from every pore. If they haven't meet, I truly hope they do before Carl passes on. He's in his 80's now...
Please, luthier gods, make it happen.
Brother I see people using picks all the time while playing bass.. I wouldn't say that it's forbidden and maybe it's because I don't like the idea that there isn't a law that says that you are committing a crime
So just do what you feel is right for you and play how you want man. It's your life and choice.
Much love brother ✌🏿
Awesome video. cool guitar. Also love the down from the sky riff. More trivium plz
I just got some of Patrick's plectrums not long ago, the torlon is definitely a unique experience. So much respect for the work that goes into his plectrums and guitars. I really want to try one of his guitars. Noticed some used ones listed in Japan at shops so I may pop in and try one during my trip next month!
I have a plectrum and have been fascinated with his work for years, great documentary
🙏🏻🙏🏻
My god was this a high quality video, you have a good eye for filmmaking, and bringing more eyes to tiny builders is exactly what the community needs, thank you for what you're doing and please keep it up!
Was hoping for better weather conditions to get some nice cinematic shots but I made the most of it hahah
Damnit the iceman is sick
PEEK is pretty awesome! Very expensive too
I love those side markers!
Haven't been fortunate enough to get my hands on one of his builds, but have owned a few of his picks and they are fantastic! Crazy how a simple change of picks can improve your playing for the better. Tone and comfort, both.
Interesting video and guitars!
luthiers like hufschmid and hapas remind me that there are still people who really care about guitars as an instrument and not a commodity. thank you for this video
So many awesome builders, I wish I could help support them all.
Sharing these videos helps already 🫡🫡
Wow I will definitely check his plectrum and his guitar work , is phenomenal. Great interview and keep the good work❤🤘🏻
I almost passed on this but gave it a shot. What a video! It's great and I hope this guy gets the attention he deserves.
Nice guy! As a chemist I've used PEEK a lot, and while it is quite hard and resonant its not quite indestructible ;) The fretboard looks quite flat, is it 20 in radius or truly flat?
Thanks for your interest! I'd like to clarify that PEEK is indeed very durable, making it an excellent choice for parts like a guitar nut, which is virtually indestructible in such applications. As for the fretboard radius, it's actually 12 inches, not flat or 20 inches in radius.
@@HufschmidGuitars Wow my eyes deceived me on the fretboard, maybe the psychedelic markers distracted me. Its a nice guitar and obviously a passion project. I wish you a good balance of art and commerce.
Hufschmid makes absolutely amazing instruments. I just wish that he made left handed ones.
When i was on social media until 5 years ago i kept drooling over Patrick's guitars and workmanship
Have a look at lothario guitars
Couldn’t agree more that Patrick is the most innovative and talented guitar builder in Europe and the world really. Patrick built me the Kelly inspired guitar pictured in this video and it is my most prized possession and has spoiled me for other guitars. He was a pleasure to deal with and it was fun to watch his progress during the build on social media. I’m glad to see his work featured so prominently here in this format. Truly great to see him get the credit he deserves.
I guess you haven’t seen Carillion Guitars then…
Aww man, I didn't know he offered a custom Kelly style along with the Iceman, as if I needed another reason to daydream about owning one of Hufschmid's guitars.
6:03 DEEZ NUTZ
You should include the guys information in the video description
so u dont use the thicc pick anymore ?
Not sure why but I've been blocked by Patrick on Instagram despite being a fan of his work, having shown a lot of support on his posts and bought picks from him in the past 😅😆
Great video by the way, more people need to know about Patrick's work.
Same here. It’s quite unusual
Yup. Asked him a question about what tuners he used and blocked med aswell
This seems common. He’s really fucking himself doing that, I wonder why he does it?
Sounds like he's a c*nt
Sounds like a great business man! Lol
Gosh from the saw is the law to down from the sky🤤
The saw is the law bro!
Only dude I see on RUclips doing Trivium Riff covers
😎😎
😎😎
Because you posted the video: this does not click with me. But i also could not afford sth. like that.
What happened to that guitar from Serbia?
Nice doc, dude!
I've always thought if someone would honeycomb chamber a body,......it would resonate for days.
brian may uses a sixpence coin simillar to an aussie 10cent coin
Really digging the new direction you're taking the channel in.
🫶🏼🫶🏼
I guess this proves the Ibanez RG body is the best electric guitar shape.
are those alumitone pickups???
Yes! 🔥
whats the scale length? what tuning did you have it to? awesome vid thanks
I was honestly expecting some bespoke shovel guitars but these are pretty cool too I guess.
Hi kaylen
Which small and portable modeler is that at 7:49?
Mooer Prime P2!
Mooer Prime P2
i thought the red button was the self destruct button
Ngl trivium on that sounded crazy
Excellent vid. One day...
❤❤❤
he should make a channel of him building the guitars
Are these the same pic's that KDH played in one of his video's...?
Yessir!
This guy blocks a lot of ppl that ask him questions. You have to underestimate the Swiss ppl by nature don't have time for nonsense. Lol
Does he hand cut those nuts? Ate they scalloped or made for a 6vstring bass?
He hand-cuts and hand-scallops them out of PEEK!
The symbol is the face of an elite from halo 😅
This is great, I really enjoyed the style of filming and editing in this one
This guy blocked me for asking what kind of guitar tuners he was using.
Lol
I really really try to avoid being critical of guitar builders. And this is a mostly great looking guitar. But it looks like his starting prices are over 3k usd. The string ferrules on the back of the guitar are not hoe they should be on a 3k+ guitar. And it's not a terribly hard thing to get right
The misalignment or the string ferrules are inacceptable 4:38
There are amateur builders that do a better job.
That's done on purpose from what I know.
@@davids2629 Please explain.
@@bwa_8 from what I know a lot of multiscaled instruments have an angle with the 7th or 8 string being the most distanced to accommodate the longer scale.
Something along those lines.
If you look at 8 strings by Ibanez the 8th and 7th strings are the only ones not aligned with the other 6.
@@davids2629 I see what you mean, but that's not what we have here. The alignment is quite random and also the spacing.
It happens when you drill manually from one side, if you're not precise, the holes at the other side of the body can be misaligned.
Which is ok on a home project, but inacceptable for the price asked for these guitars. Just pause on the image timestamped, and tell me if it screams perfectionism.
the swiss tech luthier
This dude talks like you, are you family?
He has a French accent what are you talking about lmao
@@sixstringtv1 LOL 😂
The guy from 'Dark Art' guitars also makes great bespoke\custom guitars. And he is also from Switzerland. Go check him out.
I have a hufschmid Tantalum, its just kinda meh tbh
Sure
@sixstringtv1 I mean, don't get me wrong, it's a well playing guitar, and it feels good. I just haven't exactly bonded with it like some of my other guitars.
@@ralfmckeown3660Thank you for sharing your experience with one of my guitars. I wish I had known you acquired it secondhand, as I always appreciate understanding where my creations end up and how they are received. Each instrument I make is uniquely tailored to the individual it was originally crafted for, with every neck carved according to the tracing of the customer’s own hands. This personalization is likely why you haven’t felt fully connected to it.
weird theres no smoke on the water huh
Nowhere near what the title suggests but pretty interesting stuff nontheless, great video !
Absolutely near what the title suggests, each guitar Patrick has built in the past year or so has had some sort of innovation in it that has never (or rarely) been done before.
On this guitar in particular it's the inlay design along with the CNC-carved honeycomb Richlite top.
@@sixstringtv1 I was referring to the fact that luthiery is a wide ass field and I think talking about an electric only luthier and saying he's the greatest is pretty uninformed, I've seen a lot of quite frankly huninged guitars over the last few years and a lot of luthiers would in my mind take this cake, but it's one man's opinion, you can't possibly see everything that has been made in a lifetime, Luthiers do incredible stuff and this is what the message should be Imo
@@sixstringtv1 PS : I wouldn't call any of the things you mention innovations
An innovation by definition is just introducing a new product or method of doing something, so what you would call it personally is your thing, but while I do agree that other builders have built some crazy ass shit, doing something new with EVERY build is what sets Patrick apart.
As opposed to building a cool one-off thing to show off on social media and then going back to building regular spec guitars.
Still glad you enjoyed the video habibi 🫡
@@sixstringtv1 Yeah, he's far from the only one that's all, Luthiers are plenty and full of ideas people just prefer to buy garbage from big brands
My ;buddy got Gem777 when they came out...even I sounded decent it played so smooth
Looks like a copy of my Ibanez Jem Woodie.
Too bad after multiple emails, the guy just essentially refused to respond to my requests to do business. That aside, I still believe Giulio Negrini Guitars to be the best luthier in Europe.
I was weirdly underwhelmed by Negrini's guitars at NAMM.
They're amazing works of art, but I've played better guitars hahah
He refused to do a business with you and you chose him instead of Negrini? Something is wrong with that Matt
Always love seeing Patrick’s works of art online, he’s insane at what he does. I just wish he would come out with his own unique shape/shapes to really have his own 100% original works.
Oh and sick WhiteChapel and Trivium riffage.
would be a nice looking guitar if it wasn't for that stupid JEM handle. wtf is he thinking lol
How does it feel to have such bad taste 😪
i laughed pretty hard at this comment. touché :) @@sixstringtv1
Nice ad for this builder (nothing wrong with that).
Hardly an ad if I paid out of pocket for all of it, is it?
If you could read you'd know that, but I suppose that's a bit much to ask.
and what is actually "ground breaking" in that guitar ?
Did you actually watch the video or are you so used to scrolling TikTok and drooling that you instinctively skipped through most of it with your thumb
How is it the world most groundbreaking guitars ?
More than Teuffel, Aristides, Aluminati, etc ?
Aristides is an injection moulding company that happens to make instruments.
They're cool, but they pour liquid into a guitar-shaped tub and add pickups to it.
I think what bwa_8 is getting at: They are trying something new / different.
I'm sure Patrick's guitars are excellent, he has a great eye for detail, but there are a lot of builders building these blackmachine-y types of guitars. That should not distract from him trying out some cool materials and solutions, but I would not call it groundbreaking or revolutionary.
@@sixstringtv1 Pfff, that's a pitiful response. I could tell you this guy is making a copy of Ibanez JEM with a top made of recycled material, and the hexagonal pattern, wow 🥱.
Btw, at 4:38, you can see how well the instrument is crafted by not having the holes aligned at the back of the guitar.
@@darkforce2803 Thank you, that's totally what I'm saying
Not the world's most groundbreaking guitar related thing, but I find his idea for the fret markers very cool and useful.
I think you'll find Justin Johnson's shovel guitar is the most ground-breaking... I'll see myself out
Looks like a Steve vai collaboration
lol well it is hard to hear what that "masterpiece of lutherie" sound like since you crushed it's sound with such a narrow minded distortion effect
Look at Carillion Guitars… then tell us again that this guy is the best in Europe.
Soft wood.... Not the best, but very easy to cut in ☝️ A copy of the Ibanez Steve Vai.... They did cheep rg guitars with body drilling in same way (so ugly). Fixed bridge...because people don't know how to play guitar anymore ☝️ Van Halen did his own guitar and so did Yngwie Malmsteen and i myself build my own guitar because i know what i want ☝️
not everyone who uses fixed bridges cant play guitar. they aren't mutually exclusive you know :'D some people who record or play alot of sessions like myself just want stable tuning.
Paul Gilbert plays fixed bridges. Try to tell me he doesn't know how to play
Soft wood?
Richlite is a synthetic compound that although perhaps softer than the bastard hard woods (Gabon ebony, ironwood, purpleheart) isn't far off maple and is very dense, and the mahogany type woods (sipo & sapele) are hard enough for guitar construction, with some individual pieces being harder than maple.
didnt he run a scam back in the day?
Absolutely not
Grounddbreaking, revolutionnary, industry disrupting...It changes EVERYTHING!
People out there, check out Lothario guitars from Liverpool, england. Different from anything youve seen before
