Hello from England, I'm a 77 yr old guitar player, and to my old ears, that is the best acoustic guitar I've ever heard. Also the most beautiful. Thank you.
That is absolutely the best sounding guitar I've ever heard , sparkling, transparent tone , with great articulation !
Beautiful mixture of clear rumble and bell like high tones .
Unbelievable sound, it's so unique that it needs to be featured in a body of recordings.
I'm so glad you used some sand shading. That really took those inlays to the next level.
How it sounds and how it looks = I WANT THAT!!!!! Gorgeous tone, stunning build. A masterpiece of the luthier's art.
Another wonderful example of your fine craftsmanship. Thank you!
You absolutely KILLED it on this guitar... The spinning, morphing 3d stars are captivating.
That’s a hella nice guitar, Chris! Your inlays never fail to amaze me. Keep’em comin’, man!
Absolutely amazing , what a beautiful sound out of a beautifully build guitar/ piece of art. Thank you for sharing your craft!
Absolutely unreal. Can’t wait to have you build my next guitar!
First off, the guitar is just out of this world stunning! I happen to be of Jewish heritage having had my family emigrate to the states a while ago so I can really appreciate the inlay work…BUT WOW, that sound! The first thing I picked up on is the incredible sustain you get out of it. I don’t know if that’s the African Blackwood or the spruce (or both) but it sounds amazing! You know somebody who has spent the time and money in producing this instrument will surely take good care of the woods.
Beautiful guitar - so happy I was able to see it in person!
You make a beautiful (looks and sound) guitar! The wood and binding look and colors are amazing. I love how the inlays tells a story. That is a great aspect of your build. Love it!
Absolutely gorgeous! Love that African Blackwood, and it is so nice to hear that Ancient Sitka too. These last two videos have given me some great ideas for the acoustic that I will eventually order. Keep up the amazing work.
Sounds great! I like hearing these different guitars. Makes me drool over having one.
That's the guitar to own and play! Sounds so rich in tone with distinct articulation! Just simply wonderful!
That is about the most awesome guitar I have ever seen! Beautiful!!
Absolutely beautiful…both the way it sounds and its appearance. Nice work.
Absolutely beautiful!! What a piece of art! Thanks for sharing!
absolutely best! inlays are incredible!
Only one word to explain the sound of that guitar is Butter!! It sounds so smooth and articulate. Amazing build
Wow! Love the bass response on that guitar. You nailed it Chris!
Amazing craftsmanship as always. Truly something to pass down for generations
Such a well balanced voice, you can hear every note so clearly.
WOW! For a "new" guitar, that has not been played a lot yet, the sound is formidable. I love it. And the art on the neck just kills it
Complex yet simple... This is what I describe about the aesthetics and the sound of this amazing guitar
Geez dude that sounds AMAZING
Absolutely beautiful guitar ! The sound was amazing, which I was listening through with a set of Bose speakers. I must say the low end was just spectacular and when coupled with the mid and high range of the strings was just sweetness to the ears ! Which can be said in reverse as well. Fantastic Job !!
I wouldn't even want to hold that thing for fear of damaging it! Your art is so much more than just an instrument. Stunning craftsmanship!
Listening this guitar makes you happy! Incredible! Being finnish and randomly got this video was a surprise right here!
Such strong tone with out being muddy. Mids and lows have very good articulation and highs sound clear and a bit bell like. Good balance. Beautiful guitar.
Absolutely beautiful!
Beautiful guitar , stunning, also love the stars of David !!
That's a beauty! Great tone. Nice work!
Top notch.! Very articulate, great build!!
The guitar is gorgeous, but the most impressive beauty of the guitar is the sound. There is no doubt that is one of the top five best sounding steel string acoustic guitars I have ever heard (based on your RUclips recording played over my studio monitors, which does not necessarily directly translate to live sound but is highly correlated). I'm super impressed with both the looks and the sound. Congratulations, Chris!!!!
When you hit that G major I was stunned - what an absolutely beautiful sound. Well done!
The sound is incredible!!!
That inlay is beautiful and so thoughtful!
That’s a killer fingerboard inlay. Damn!!
That sounds fantastic. Beautiful eye candy.I really like the color of the ancient sitca top.
I can say from personal experience that it is an AMAZING guitar. The detail on the inlay is spot on, I'd put this up there with a 1933 Martin that I had the honor to play onetime.
Great job!! That guitar is a stunner , I love African blackwood and that ancient sitka top wow!! And the inlay something else, I'm so jealous.
Incredible guitar brother! wow
This is a fantastic series!
Beautiful sound
Fantastic design! Well done! Just a beautiful guitar!
Well and nicely done!
Great looking and sounding guitar.
I hope it serves its recipient and their family well
Beautiful guitar and beautiful sound!
Wow sounds amazing. It is so nice when you play your guitars. Miss you and Matt performing that would be a nice addition again.
The way those stars of David look suspended and falling, morphing into 5-point stars in the flag is nothing short of pure art. I have done a fair amount of inlays, which I considered reasonably well-done, but I am truly humbled by this piece. Excellent!
Great job Chris!!!👍❤️😎🎸
Absolutely beautiful guitar and sounding guitar !
cool man , I'm still waiting for 3,000 yrs guitar lol
That series teaching me how to build guitar a lot... can't wait to see it again thanks Chris & Matt :)
it really really sounds great. Perfect job!
I would love to have that guitar. Beautiful inlay and a really cool theme. Love the look and the sound.
That is insanely beautiful!
My god that’s a beautiful piece of artistry
Very cool inlay concept. Well done.
Just stunning!
That is a great sounding guitar! Love the inlay!
Wow beautiful and it sounds just like it looks. You my friend are a artist👍🏼😎🎸
would love to see more videos on inlay, I have built more than a few acoustics but never had the confidence to do intricate inlay work like you do. You are a real master at it, the best that I've ever seen to date. Every time you show off your inlay work I feel like less of a builder haha, it's a great testament to your hard work.
This guitar seems to speak with considerable authority without being overbearing, or hyped - if that makes any sense. Love it. I need to win the lottery. Magnificent! Glad I found your channel! Oh…and pretty good inlay work, too! 😁
Absolutely Amazing
Amazing guitar, Chris!
That is stunning
Wow!!!!!!!! This is a amazing guitar. Sounds really really good and looks awsome. Great!!!
beautiful guitar and it sounds great seems to have alot of natural sustain.well done
Wow beautiful lovley sounding .
What a stunning piece. Sadly I'll never be able to buy a guitar that nice. I bet that one is worth 9 or 10 thousand dollars!! Still gorgeous. Everything about it is amazing but the inlays blew my mind.
Sounds like Heaven! The resonance, the Enveloping Overtone Halo!!
Stunning instrument!
Beautiful looks & sound damn nice job you are a artist amazing inlay thanks
Wow. That is stunning. I’d be nervous to play it. Been playin 26 years so I’ve gotten better at not dinging my guitars. But eventually it’s gonna happen. She’s gorgeous. Great job!
Gorgeous guitar. Beautiful inlays and fantastic sound. I wish I could like this more then once.
@DriftWood_Guitars.. 😂😂😂😂😄😄😄🤣🤣🤣🤣🤦🏻♂️
Magnificent build! Please do a comparison between this and the other when you finish building it. Would love to hear these side by side. Beautiful!!
I’ve been waiting 3000 years for this video
Waiting for a another tiny bench concert! Love those 👍
Fantastic sounding guitar
Really beautiful guitar! I would love it with the volute by the back neck at the head stock.
I thought Matt Chulka @ Eddie's guitars had the easiest job by getting his hands on the best sounding guitars in the universe and playing beautiful music . . . . . Well, you are right up there with luthier skills that make fine sounding guitars, and you both do excellent work!!!
Make another with some of your Brazillian wood !!! Great work !!!!
That’s sick!🙌👍👍
Wow- gorgeous.
Amazing.
Stunning gosh
GLORIOUS! I love the sound of the Walnut B&S, but this is a whole 'nother level. There is a shimmer to the highs, but the body shape and woods make it a cannon on the low end. The Bronze strings have you flirting with "too much of a good thing". Instead, this guitar seems quite comfortable living right on the edge. High Performance, indeed. Impressive.
p.s. In the spirit of poking fun at snarky comments, will we ever see the Woodstock guitar get finished. ( Sorry, I couldn't help myself.)
I'm not into Bling but that sound is awesome, very nicely crafted. 10 out of 10!
i mean it sounds great; looks unreal.
Awesome.
Sonic clarity!
Impeccable craftsmanship! Not my taste for inlay but well executed. The sound texture is outstanding. Well done as always.
been waiting since the first vod to hear this gtr
DANG!!! that there is badass!!!
If you sing with your guitar playing you definitely want a little bit of scoop to mids, IMO. Such a beautiful guitar!
personally, I like much simpler appointments than the driftwood style, but sound-wise, holy CRAP that's a nice sounding guitar. excellent work
This is the best sounding guitar that I’ve ever heard! And it’s drop dead gorgeous. Hopefully one day another log of similar wood will be found and also that I can afford a guitar of this caliber.
Wonderful sound and look. Which came you being able to play or building guitars. Good job.
Very bright.
