I was interested in some of the studf they were talking about and was yelling turn the camera... That guys mouth doesn't make the guitar... Haha Fluff get on ya boy man... Get on em!!!!!
For bass players this is a special company. For decades they made their name mainly on basses. The Stingray is the coolest bass ever made and a lifelong companion.
I love american guitar factories tours sooo much - an interviewee talks some pretty ordinary things, and interviewer to all his phrases - "whaaaah"😃 Camera guy - bro, you should visit a doctor - your hands shaking is frightening)
As a guitar maker myself, I love factory tour videos. I always find it interesting to see how their workflow is set up. Sometimes it gives me ideas for things to implement in my own shop, gives me ideas for new jigs, etc. Just curious, do non-builders find these videos just as interesting, though maybe for other reasons? Thanks for sharing, Fluff!
Cool! So, what parts of the working process did you see exactly, (completely)? Because I saw very little. "Nah, nah, all is working fine", said the tour guy when he was carefully pulling a snot out of his nose, thinking that the important parts were being filmed and no cameras were aiming towards him. If you would have let me a few more minutes looking at the tour guy, I bet you I would know the colour of his underwear.
Musicman NEEDS to make a reissue 1979 Louis Johnson signature model 4 string Stingray bass. When signed to A&M records along with his brother George and their group The Brothers Johnson, HE was the one who helped Leo Fender design the bass. Louis was getting royalties for his contributions until the family cut him off. He was the FIRST artist to commercially use the Musicman Stingray bass then came other folks like Bernard Edwards of Chic, Alabama, Oak Ridge Boys and others...The Musicman logo was inspired by Louis and his brother George. Louis NEVER gets the CREDIT he deserves for his input on this AMAZING instrument 😢❤
Drummer here. Lol. I'd love to work at any station in this factory I swear. Electric guitar is probably the most fascinating instrument in music history! I think I like building and working on them more than I like playing. Probably because I'm not that good. Getting better though.
Amazing company! My #1 is still my Valentine BFR, and now I can see why it's so good. Not to mention, they've got the best artist roster right now. Great video!
The spalt comes from mold. Different types of mold come in contact and build walls that are those lines. It's very delicate and highly toxic to work with.
This was cool, but it would have been one THOUSAND times better if we actually got shots of all of the machines/items and processes vs. watching dude just, *t a l k* about them the whole time.
ok so spalting isn't moisture its fungi and Burls aren't part of the root ball underground, they grow above ground and can occur anywhere on the tree, so home boy was dead wrong about both of those lol. Also "fanned frets" is a trademarked owned by Ralph Novak that they shouldn't be using without licensing it from Ralph, otherwise call it a multiscale.
Please ask the fellow about the tonal qualities of wood for electric guitars, all the tonewood vids are from non guitar makers, so a professional option from a working guitar manufacturer would be great,
I live about 40 minutes from the PRS factory. I don't own any but would love to get w tour when I get my channel going. Makes great content. I grew up a couple hours from the Martin factory too
Thank you for showing this off. Music man are absolutely incredible instruments a lot of folks overlook unfortunately. Good to see them getting some recognition.
not at all. A properly made glue joint is stronger and more mechanically sound than even the wood itself. The scarf joint can be there for preventing grain runout too, keeps it from pulling a Gibson and breaking when a fairy farts on it.
Camera guy, please for the love of God, show the items they are talking about. I don't need to see their faces for 98% of the time. Thanks.
You beat me to it!
I do appreciate the mics though so you can hear easily.
Yeah he sucks
I was interested in some of the studf they were talking about and was yelling turn the camera... That guys mouth doesn't make the guitar... Haha
Fluff get on ya boy man... Get on em!!!!!
I agree. We missed a lot of detail in the neck construction area because of forgetting to look where they look.
For bass players this is a special company. For decades they made their name mainly on basses. The Stingray is the coolest bass ever made and a lifelong companion.
Absolutely. As a young bassist 25 years ago I always wanted a Stingray bass. Now I have a fair few!
@@gazzy_burns the love of a Stingray is the greatest love in bass gear.
+1 Bongo 6 is great too!
But they didn’t show bases..MM is known for their Bass, and they did not show, what are they hiding? The crummy wood used??
World record for the most amount of times one man has ever said "WOW" and "COOL" in the space of 22 minutes 😂
Drinking Game
Lol!! I’m not going to say “wow” anymore.
WOW
Wahw
nobody:
fluff: WOOOOOOOOOOWWWWW
Wowwwwwwwwwww
I drank every time he said wow, pretty buzzzed now🤠
"Wow" counter: 24
I think you may have the decimal point in the wrong spot 🤣
@@pretendtobenormal8064 there's no decimal, it's 24 bro.

I find it interesting to see all the steps to a finished guitar! Fascinating stuff
Shit tour

I am very proud to be USA StingRay 5 HH Special owner! Thank you for a great expose and I love that STAX Records T-shirt!!!
As a guitar player, I also have a career in manufacturing, I found this video to be extremely informative, interesting and entertaining…. Loved it! 🎸
Okay. Leaving office worker life now and applying to the Music Man wood shop. I’m sure my wife and family will understand. 😅
“Kinda fun!” 😅
Watching this, the price points start to become more understandable.
Awesome! Thanks Fluff! I tried to get a tour a few years ago, when I was out in San Luis Abisbo, but I was there at a bad time. This made my day!
I’m going to say it again …I’m REALLY excited to see the new “Fluff” Armada EBMM guitar for 2023/2024 😏
Drummer here. Lol. I'd love to work at any station in this factory I swear. Electric guitar is probably the most fascinating instrument in music history! I think I like building and working on them more than I like playing. Probably because I'm not that good. Getting better though.
Superb video, thank you! Love music man guitars!
Cool to see technology in action ... I been doing PLC and CNC repair since the 90's.
Lot of wows and cools in this EBMM factory tour series.
I've seen many tours of the EBMM facilities over the years. This is by far the best one yet.
great camera work genius.
It was so interesting to see the music man method of guitar making, and the worker said that there are lots of different ways to construct a guitar,
Wow what a tourrr
Fluff to camera guy…”keep the camera on me or you’re fired”…🤪
take a shot every time Fluff says "wow" 🤣
Love this kind of content!! Great job, Fluff!!
How many times did he say wow in the first two minutes?
This is the episode of "WOWS" by Fluff!
That was awesome! Really liked getting to see some of the processes used for one of my guitars.
3:47 Fluff is just imagining.. Hmmm I wonder if we can just slap a neck on this baby...
Amazing company! My #1 is still my Valentine BFR, and now I can see why it's so good. Not to mention, they've got the best artist roster right now. Great video!

This was so cool to see. Very educational. Thanks for doing this Fluff!.
This was cool, but it would have been one THOUSAND times better if we actually got shots of all of the machines/items and processes vs. watching dude just, *t a l k* about them the whole time.
Progressed from Cool to WoW !..😅
I see two Mike Herrera pick guards. Unfortunately the will not make and sell them if they’re not installed on the signature bass it seems.
As Blair was talking about all the different type of maple tops, all I could hear was the guy outside the strip club in From Dusk Till Dawn 😂
Kinda forgot about that movie. That’s a good one. I’m gonna watch it with my son tonight. I think he’s old enough now, he’s 11.
Awesome. I really want to try a kaizen
rad. thanks 4 sharing this with us.

"wow"
.Actually a drop hammer to install frets. That is very interesting, the weight being the force standard.
Cool series, thanks!
WoW!!!
Is this a factory tour or reaction video? Camera guy in love with the 2 of you.
WOW
Eart does SS Frets........ and has excellent fretwork... so Music Man isn't the only one who does mass produced guitars with SS Frets....
Never heard of Eart sooooo
@@RiffsAndBeardsI know LTD 1000 series has had stainless steel frets and as of this year they are standardizing it to the ESP line.
I believe Mitchell also has ss frets
A majority of Schecter’s South Korean lineup has SS frets, LTD, Solar, there’s probably a few others as well.
B ass wood is that. My first guitar was entirely hard rock maple (guess the brand) with an ebony fretboard.
Please ask the fellow about the tonal qualities of wood for electric guitars, all the tonewood vids are from non guitar makers, so a professional option from a working guitar manufacturer would be great,
When do we get a fluff signature guitar
I'm just waiting for the day MM releases a 26.5" scale JP 7 string 😂😂
Can you rename this "two guys look at stuff"? 🤣
Schecter probably has more production guitars with ss frets than anyone
I got Wood !
Apparently target sells bathing suits that will let you tuck it away.
@@smelltheglove2038 Ideal!

Didn’t see much, just 2 guys talking. Bit of a shame
I hope Paul Reed Smith is watching lol
They said the fluff guitar? A signature coming?
I wish your camera guy showed more of the processing and less of the guy while he's talking.
on point! .
I’m with Fluff…the heavier, the better 👍
I don't care how many times he says. "WCW!" in the video can someone tell the camera person to actually show the items being talked about?!
🇩🇿Hello, I am from Algeria. I have experience in the field of manufacturing musical instrument boxes. I hope someone will work in your country 🙏
Day 208 of hoping for a Mr Sparkle sig model
Just great, now I want another EBMM guitar! Think my wallet is safe, local dealer has listed as unavailable. Guess there's always the SBMM!
honest question, does adding a scarf joint to a neck through instrument, kind of defeat the purpose?
not at all. A properly made glue joint is stronger and more mechanically sound than even the wood itself.
The scarf joint can be there for preventing grain runout too, keeps it from pulling a Gibson and breaking when a fairy farts on it.
Looks like more a the office episode. All the time record the two guys. What a bad camera man.
