Excellent craftsmanship! I love how the Japanese take their time, and pay attention to every detail without rushing. Great video showing all the little elements of construction. Thanks!
That back is stunning 😳 As a guitar builder (not a luthier) I know how expensive a huge piece of flamed maple like that would be, it’s so dam perfect! You pay through the nose for a piece with some nice areas of flame on it, that thing was all even flame top to bottom. Lovely seeing a master at work with materials that match his skill.
I don't care what country you come from, what language you speak, or what type of music you listen to. The mastery of this man's skill at his art is amazing. This man is a true master of his trade. As many of us have come to expect the skill of many of these craftsman in Japan, Korea, Tiawan, Indonesian, Vietnam, and several of these other Asian countries where major industrialization has not destroyed the traditional craftsmanship trades or where the people and countries have made efforts to preserve these skills of the traditional crafts and trades is a joy and wonder to behold and a treasure beyond price to the entire world.
10 seconds into this video it is showing someone (possibly Takao himself) carving against the grain. All wood carvers know to carve with the grain to avoid chipping and stick to carving. So, I'll give him that his skill and sharp chisels allows him to buck this rule of thumb.
Yes, indeed. But there are also many artisan luthiers like him, that build fantastic instruments in Europe and in the US. We live in a Golden Age of luthiery, with new intruments that rival and exceed those of Stradivarius in double-blind tests.
Absolutely fantastic, thank you so much for letting us watch. I hope the gentleman that made the cello has the equivalent of a foot spa for his hands. 👏👏👏🇬🇧
Thank you so much for posting this amazing master craftsman at work...as I marveled at his expertise, I found my mouth open...my gosh, that is wonderful work...
Arigato for sharing this video ❤️ I started playing cello a few years ago. This video has made me love my cello more, knowing the amount of time & effort a craftsman spent in giving a cello a life.

23:16 - I actually like this antiquing method, taking away varnish and then adding some darker colours in subtle places. I was recommended/told by my teacher NOT to do this.... but with the quasi-rustic way I made my instruments... it was almost like they *needed* the antiquing during the varnishing process to accompany my style as a luthier. The antiquing actually worked out extremely well and my teacher said he didn't think I could make it look so authentic. That was QUITE the praise [which I didn't think I'd hear him say to me ever]. R.I.P Master Arthur Robinson who taught me all-things-luthier and even life lessons and philosophy. Such a great man who many people from around the world miss deeply. I'm so happy to see the great man in this video going through every single process from start to finish. What a great result!! Much love from Liam in Australia!
Thank you for this incredible insight into the working of a master craftsman and providing me with the opportunity to learn more about this amazing instrument and the love and care that goes into creating every piece of art. Stunning and enriching!!
That's funny! A world class instrument maker and the first blocks of wood he mounts are split using a butter knife. It further proves an observation I had recently about Japanese craftsmanship. It seems that they use whatever tool suffices to do the work. If it takes a high dollar tool made by an extreme craftsman, then he will have it. If a blade made by himself and handled with bamboo works? Then that is what he will use. It points to a simple fact. Tools don't make the craftsman, knowledge, experience, and ingenuity make the craftsman. Excellent work.
No se requiere herramienta costosa para elaborar artesanías de alto nivel,se pueden elaborar con elementos que estén a la mano,bien reza el dicho,"la necesidad es la madre de los inventos",saludos desde Colombia.
Truly beautiful craftsmanship, and so interesting to see the differences in the way the tools are used. I am in constant admiration of Japanese, whatever they do. They will not be satisfied with anything less than perfect, even though they claim that perfection can never be reached. My deepest respects. 🙏
It must be SO satisfying to hear the beautiful music coming out of your creation! My first instrument was the cello in 5th grade and never once had I considered all of the painstaking work involved in making it. Bravo! Hiromi Paul Sanders
I could see this instrument being played by Yo-Yo-Ma, it's obvious as to why these instruments are so expensive. The caring craftsmanship shown here tells me that this instrument is built to last forever and sound as good 100 years from now as the day it was made.
Making a cello in this way must be akin to planting an oak tree - you know it will only really reach maturity and be it's very best long after you are gone from this Earth.
I would be so terrified that after so much work I made *just* the wrong cut, gouge, planed too much, applied too much force. And my fear of that would make my pieces all too thick and coarse. He’s a master.
Beautiful, a masterpiece in itself craftsman & artisans. I wrote a piece years ago re the cello may it touch our heart strings in continued harmony love & peace.
This is the work of a true craftsman and the attention to detail is incredible, if I could play guitar it would be an honour and privilege to own one of your masterpieces, well done.
Compétences, savoir faire méticuleux, precision du geste, rien ne se fait bien sans passion ! Œuvre d'art prolongée au delà de sa fabrication par le talent de l’artiste ! Félicitations
i wish i could be an apprentice/servant to a guy like this. i would love to make musical instruments for a living. but to learn personally from a master like this dude would be unreal
I like how piano music plays in the background while the video is about making a Cello. I guess he had to finish the cello first before we could listen to it in the background 😅😅😅
It's a wonderful video and I appreciate his craftsmanship so much. I wonder what the humidity level is in his workshop. I also wonder if his glue is equal to the glue of the age of the mold. In other words, if you guys noticed the mold is like from 1711 and so he's certainly not heating up super glue in that pot of his, so it has to be a recipe similar to 1711. Absolutely outstanding!
I love this piece of music but couldn't remember the title or composer. Chopin and Schubert did come to mind, but I wasn't sure which one, or what piece. Thank you for clearing that up. I particularly like Alfred Brendel's rendition of the piece. (He is still alive, by the way; he's now 93 years old.)
This was incredibly fascinating to watch! As a cellist, witnessing how much time and care goes into crafting these glorious instruments makes me appreciate instruments even more! :3
Nice! I was waiting for the moment to see how the sound post (魂柱) would be put inside. But didn't see that :( Such a pitty! It would be like a cherry on top.
As I was watching this it suddenly hit me that he has all of his fingers. I then watched more closely and he has several great wounds that he has earned pursuing his craft. It is an honor to be able to watch this master.
Doing this all by hand with a few tools, almost everything is manual, its so impressive. He must be very talented, I hope he is training someone younger :) Oh also, all the comments in subtitles are very usefull !
На самом деле уже нет, скрипку страдивари можно вырезать на чпу станке, при этом это будет идеальная копия, а то даже и лучше, исключая мельчайшие огрехи которые остаются при ручном, тем более на столько старом производстве.
@@develmax Ну, во первых на станке с ЧПУ скрипку не вырезать, это бессмысленно, т.к. верх, низ, бока скрипки должны быть из различных материалов, я так думаю, поэтому корпус скрипки клееный. А во вторых, можно механизм, состоящий из руки манипулятора и подключенный к контроллеру, запрограммировать и заставить рисовать "Девятый вал", но от этого продукт деятельности такого механизма произведением искусства не станет, а вот программу, сложный алгоритм, придуманный инженером, возможно-можно и назвать искусством.

Here is the piece- I saw a man playing cello Within the ruins of Baghdad Destruction enumerated Reverberating the echoes Bouncing starkly As the soulful melody Quietly found its linger Meandering through the passersby’s Pausing for the contrasts While touching the human chord His pensive set sitting pensively As fingers stroked the strings At one silent along the reed Haunting melancholy music Staccato's surrealistically serene Soothing wounds As a lullaby Loving parent rocking child Unable to drift asleep Holding a moment of hope Tomorrow tomorrow Gently touching pains chords Mellow fellow bellows I saw a man playing cello Sweet music Within the ruins of Baghdad Play on
A truly lovely video. Top quality visually too! I remember my first tool that my luthier teacher, Arthur Robinson, gave me. It was a "simple" knife made in Japan. I still use it for almost everything in luthiery/woodwork. The blade is so solid and sharp and razor thin! I think Japanese steel is renowned worldwide as the best grade of steel for basically any tool (anything from a small knife .... right up to a full katana). I also like how many of the planes in this video work via a "pull action" and not the typical "push action". I remember my teacher had many Japanese tools and on his rack of 6 saws: 3 of them had teeth that were designed for pushing, while two others were designed for pulling, and the last was interesting in that the teeth were neutral [pointing directly downwards] and had alternating teeth along the blade - *that one* is a little hard to explain without a photo or diagram!

Interesting that the music accompaniament couldn't have been in a key that had any more flats if it tried. Way to go, Franz. Tricky to play this transposed onto a 'cello.
The sound and quality of the wood is audible as he works it, every little tink and knock carries it. I have an archtop Gibson L5 that I run my fingers over just for the sheer pleasure of the curves.
Thank you for mentioning this! I was thinking the same thing! The patience required to place each and every one of those clamps is also an art all its own.
Sorry if this sounds irreverent: This fellow is a master. It would be marvelous if he were to collaborate with those skilled in CNC machining. This is happening with electric guitars, and the result is that many, many more people have access to high quality instruments. That said, this is beautiful.
Just personally: listening to violin (or any string music) during a luthier video is a little bit corny to me now. It was interesting the first few times when I was younger.... but if I see someone post a video in the near future where they're making a violin and "Meditation by Jules Massenet" is playing in the background....then: sound off for me!
19:30 - but if the branding is on the inside, nobody can see it. Wouldn't it be better to do it on the OUTSIDE of the body, so it can be identified easily?
Excellent craftsmanship!

いつも素晴らしい職人の映像をありがとうございます
あくまで肯定的な意見として書かせていただきます
私もものづくりに携わる一技術者として、動画を拝見する際は各工程の手順を頭で組み立てながら拝見しています
その中で、動画がカットされた間にその工程が完了していることが多々あり、これは仕方ないとは思うのですが
職人が丁寧に液体を伸ばすところ、丁寧にやするところ等々が省かれていることが多く感じます
あくまでエンジニアとしての感覚的な部分ですが、単に工程初期の動画を繋げたものも悪くはありませんが、各工程でどこにこだわって、どのように職人が仕上げていくのかがものづくりの真髄であると思っています
例えば、料理のレシピを説明するのであれば、何の具材をどれだけ、どの順で入れていくかを説明するだけですみます
しかし、優秀な料理人のコツを知りたかったり、どこにこだわっているから良い料理が完成するのかを見たい場合はそうはなりません
プロセスXには単にものづくりの手順を見せるだけでなく、技術者、職人の持っている本当に重要な部分に焦点を当ててもらいたく、期待を込めてコメントさせていただきます

23:16 - I actually like this antiquing method, taking away varnish and then adding some darker colours in subtle places. I was recommended/told by my teacher NOT to do this.... but with the quasi-rustic way I made my instruments... it was almost like they *needed* the antiquing during the varnishing process to accompany my style as a luthier. The antiquing actually worked out extremely well and my teacher said he didn't think I could make it look so authentic. That was QUITE the praise [which I didn't think I'd hear him say to me ever].

Here is the piece-
I saw a man playing cello
Within the ruins of Baghdad
Destruction enumerated
Reverberating the echoes
Bouncing starkly
As the soulful melody
Quietly found its linger
Meandering through the passersby’s
Pausing for the contrasts
While touching the human chord
His pensive set sitting pensively
As fingers stroked the strings
At one silent along the reed
Haunting melancholy music
Staccato's surrealistically serene
Soothing wounds
As a lullaby
Loving parent rocking child
Unable to drift asleep
Holding a moment of hope
Tomorrow tomorrow
Gently touching pains chords
Mellow fellow bellows
I saw a man playing cello
Sweet music
Within the ruins of Baghdad
Play on
