Custom STRATOCASTER Build | With Bigsby
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 20 окт 2024
- This is the second addition to my homemade guitar collection. It features the iconic design of the Stratocaster, but has a few extras such as a Bigsby vibrato and cream binding on the front. The body is Poplar, and the Neck is Mahogany topped with a Rosewood fretboard.
The pickups are Fender Tex-Mex Stratocaster pickups in the traditional SSS configuration. Other features include a bridge from a Fender Mustang, and vintage Gotoh tuners on the headstock.
Many aspects this build were new to me such as the painted body and headstock, the binding on the front, and of course the beautiful monstrosity that is the Bigsby B50! I hope this build shows what is possible for anyone willing to put in the effort to build their own guitar. Enjoy!

Love the strat especially with the Bigsby on it
That is one of the most beautiful, handmade guitars I’ve ever seen, awesome job. I hope it plays as good as it looks. Absolutely beautiful.
Thank you very much!
Beautiful color combo and the Bigsby looks completely at home on the strat shape. Well done sir!
Thank you kindly!
I don’t play guitar, but I do appreciate the craftsmanship that put into this nice build. I always wanted to play guitar but my brain and fingers don’t compute, so I have to watch and enjoy other people play. I really hope that you have an apprentice so the skills that you have can be passed to the next person. We don’t want these skills lost.
Молодец человек,честь и хвала ,низкий поклон людям умеющим работать руками ,а самое главное желающим этого!
Thank you!
That acetone spill damage on the backside has a cool relic-y affect!
Awesome job, love the "dotless" fretboard
im proude to say this is my uncle. but this is one beautiful guitar, i dont care whats in it i want 14 of these.
I’ve been waiting for a second video! Looks fantastic, great job 👏
Thank you! Cheers!
I will buy it for $2999
@@dominicstewart9999 I’ll out bid you!
@@AnnaBell-rq8vf well you wouldn't lose the money and Bill wouldn't lose the guitar
Haha
Meticulous is an understatement. Great build!
Amazing job, nicely done! A stratocaster guitar with a Bigsby tremolo is a combination we don't see everyday.
Nice build! I especially like the mahogany neck and rosewood fretboard on a Strat style guitar. The painted headstock is also a nice touch. I love the blue top with the dark back and sides and the top binding. That looks very cool. I also think the Tex-Mex pickups were a nice choice. Some people don't realize how good those pickups can sound (they might overlook them, because they're not super expensive or boutique pickups). I used Tex-Mex Tele pickups on a Telecaster I built, just because they sounded so good. You built an awesome guitar. It's truly something to be proud of.
Thank you! I really appreciate that!
Looks and sounds dynamite! Thanks for sharing.
This colour combo is absolutely mesmerising!
You're the Bob Ross of guitar building. Love it!
Classy looking guitar, like a strat and a les paul had a baby, terrific job, I wish I had your workshop and talent!
Looks great 👍!!
Some very interesting choices (like drilling after painting) but very, very cool build. I enjoyed every minute of it.
I love the tone that the bigsby give to the sound of the strings. Good choice. 👍
Awesome job, definitely worth the hours it took!
Thank you!
That was a really great build. Great job. Really enjoyed. Thanks for sharing.
Sound bytes extra treat appreciated big time sounded amazing!

Love it, such a beautiful colour
speechless... beautiful ! Great Job
Wow, thank you!
What a handsome machine. Great work.
This is like my 3/4th times watching this video. I've watched many different kind of videos making custom guitar but this is the most (as for me) satisfying build ever. And i really love and enjoy how he's doing here.and I'm waiting for your next project building.❤❤❤ From India.
Wow thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it and thanks for watching!! ❤️❤️❤️from Australia!
Love your work! 🎸
beautiful work more upload plz
Love the 'slow video' feel of this clip. And the craftsman gets a new toy. Great looking guitar.
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it
@@greensguitars I probably would not be able to afford your output but I love the craftpersonship (is that a word) and attention to detail. I look forward to your other work.
Strat: the most beautiful and best sounding el. guitar ever designed! With it's native floating bridge & whammy it is a GORGEOUS instrument; with a bigsby, it is UNREAL.
Thanks a lot!
Stunning guitar mate. Absolutely incredible. Was inspiring to watch. You are a master at your craft.
Thank you! Cheers!
Wow ! Guitar and The sound ,Great work.
Thanks a lot!
Loved the fumble when you were doing the binding. Just shows we’re all human 😂. Loved the video.
damn it, i wish i can buy this one! nicely done!
That sky blue looks great with the pguard& binding mate,love it& it sounds ace too🫡
What a nice guitar!Wonna have this!Best work!Thank you!

Fantastic watching the video and the result is gorgeous. An individual guitar which is stunning.
Fantastic work! Great job!
Fantastic build. I watched the entire video, and it gave me some great ideas. Thank you.
Awesome, thank you!
Shear perfection friend great work, have a nice day, Brian UK !!!.😀😀👍👍.
Thanks Brian! You too!
Most beautiful guitar Ive ever seen!🎸💙
Thanks! I’m glad you think so!
brilliant ideas!!!!!!!!!!! Over the top!!!
Really great!
Lovely build and great craftsmanship, I look forward to seeing more! Interested as to why you went for a Bigsby when a normal strat trem would be... better haha
Strat trem better? Maybe if you like double stops going flat when bending. Bigsby is much simpler with less routing. The longer string length affects the tension as well. Arguably, there is more mass with a bigsby as well. There are definite differences between a bigsby and traditional 6 point Fender style vibrato bridge. Whatever floats your boat.
@@viffer5 the bigsby on a strat i thought would look weird but i like it......a good set up Bigsby is better than a strat trem...........
Cool guitar. Thanks! 👍
gorgeous!!
Amazing work sir. Thanks for the video
Du très beau travail avec de véritables connaissances.
Loved the video, that was great!
Thank you! I’m glad you enjoyed it!
We are from Brasil 🇧🇷 Parabéns pelo seu trabalho. Sucesso pra ti ! Att. Vankesh & Christina
Thank you! 🙏
Great you showed the acetone damage as well, just to prove it doesn't always go 100%. Excellent work, great video
Cheers! I thought it would be healthy to leave that mistake in the video to show that no one is perfect and that mistakes do happen. Thanks for watching!
A Bigsby on a Strat is absolutley where it's at!
I’m glad you like it!!
It would have been more shiny if you used a polisher or a buff, but your work is very good
Looks and sounds great 👌
Lindo trabalho um verdadeiro artista e criador de guitarra parabens. Limeira SP Brasil
Great job, beautiful guitar!
Gorgeous color on your S guitar ... love the turtle shell guard!
Thank you kindly!
Мужик ты крут,очень крутой страт получился,цвет просто отпад!!!!! Как говорится в русской пословице: "Дело мастера боится"
Thank you! 🙏
very beautiful!
Amazing guitar. Gteat job buddy. Love it man 👍💯👋👏👏🎸🎸
Cheers! Thanks for watching!
wow it appeared again in my recommendations, srsly watching this makes me want to learn how to play a guitar though I want it to be the same color as this, since my favorite color is blue.
Very Cool Build ,,A few things I would have done differently but I did enjoyed Your Video and the fact you didnt play Heavy Metal at the end and Played something Classy was Awesome ! Good Build !
Beautiful guitar
Every bit as good as I thought it would be! Love the paint, and did I see a few new tools in there as well?
Great build. Great player too
Cheers. I appreciate that!
According to what I've read the compound radius of the fret board is supposed to be 7.25″ radius (184.15mm). You did a good job making that jig to create the radius. 👍
Bloody lovely
Всегда восхищаюсь столярам, хороший инструмент у Вас получается. Спасибо
The carving of the neck is cool, it does seem like way more work than you actually need to do to get similar results but to each their own.
Beautiful!!
Outstanding work. Your skill and attention to detail is encouraging to see. Great taste too…
Love,
The Bigsby.
No, I mean…my name isn’t Bigsby. I’m trying to say that I love the Bigsby but it came out wrong. 🍻
Thanks Bigsb…I mean Andrew! I’m glad you enjoyed the video! 👍🍻
increible, excelente trabajo
Good job, couple things… I think you should’ve wet sand and buffed the paint job, put locking tuners and used a real bigsby, made by bigsby not the licensed one. If someone is Going to pay premium price because it’s hand made then everything should be premium but that’s just me.
I don't know how to play a guitar, but blue guitar is 😍
Beautiful axe brother!!! Nice job!!
Thanks 👍
Приспособа для радиуса накладки грифа понравилась.👍
This is the second video of yours that I've seen and Brother let me say - Your work is amazing! I love the passion you put into this and it's such a joy to see the outcome. Please keep going.... And do let me know if you can build and ship to the US
Wow, thank you!
You put my faith back in rattle cans lol
Thanks for the whole technological process of making an electric guitar, I really liked it and kind of serves as a good relaxation, in places it gave me goosebumps like in ASMR, and even knowing how to play - double ecstasy. ❤
Without electric cutting and grinding tools, the manufacturing process would take longer.. 😤 A 3D printer will do it almost instantly 😂
Love that color! Attention to detail in the worksmanship. Would love to see a build like the Rickenbacher (Tom Petty) or BB King style hollow body electric in the same color. Cheers. (I realize it is a completely different process...).
Great video!
I built a mahogany Telecaster back around 1971, with a Fender Stratocaster neck (hand routed the neck pocket and all the other stuff), Grover tuners (the screw lips were all in the wrong place and I had to grind them off! I told Grover they needed to move the lip 1/4 around the body of their in-line tuners, and they did!); two SG Standard humbuckings (the proper name for them!), and standard Telecaster bridge PUP. Had the old style Telecaster wiring and a Gibson selector switch to turn on and off, the middle pickup. This boat anchor was and still is a beast.
Keep going bro love your videos
Cheers!
Verry good hand made
Beautiful. All of it. Well done. It looks amazing ❤
Great work, nice build. Loved the Bigsby system. Only 1 thing I would recommend you change, get som wood-drills, as I see you use metal-drill :)
Awesome!
My lord, I'd buy that guitar. I'd buy it so hard.
Enjoyable video and nice guitar. Well done! Definitely a lot of work but it's a one of kind. Definitely worth it. :-)
wow so nice bro 👍🏻
Great job keep building I imagine Les Paul is next I hope
I thought to install the bigsby you need the strings. Amazing job by the way 🎉
Hermoso trabajo te felicito me encanta como quedó la guitarra armada y la combinación de colores muy bueno
Okay, So you’re building your partscasters the real way!! Not like I build em’ (assemble pre-carved and fully finished bodies/necks with electronics and hardware..) hehee! 😉
Awesome ❤
love how it turned out. thanks for sharing
Thank you! 😊
