🔥🔥🔥well u did a great job bro I’m happy for you that’s a hard work right there for people who understand how many hours and effort u spend on the project it looks really good bro I’m happy for u bro been here on the Chanel since the beginning keep up the good work and stay positive 👊 greetings from germany 🍻
There's a reason that over half a million of us have subscribed to your channel. You are knowledgeable, talented, and super entertaining! You are killing it with this build and the amount of work done on it mostly by one man is crazy! Of course it's going to take a while and you can't automatically be a pro at every single thing you do but if you can just keep trying to do better tomorrow than today and improving yourself, and even knowing your limits and asking for help... If you do that then I can't understand why anyone would talk down on you and if they do then they shouldn't be taken seriously. Keep killing it!
FYI...it was you EXO along with JP and Steve Meade who brought my love for car audio back. So let me say thank you! I watch all 3 of you guys build, rebuild and build for others over the years that i have jumped back in at 45 yrs old.
I'm 46, and these guy's brought back into car audio, with a vengeance no less, since my day's from the 90's about 10 years ago and have never looked back.
Dude I got my microscope out and ...nada. Nothing. Nothing wrong with this project AT ALL. You aren't knocking it out of the park, you are knocking it out of the freakin' galaxy! I'm ALWAYS super-excited when you're coming at me with another build video and it's ALWAYS been 100% worth it.
I don’t comment much but when you thanked your wife for being there for you and she said of course. It was so genuine. I’ve been married for 10 years and man we dudes get so caught up in ourselves sometimes in projects and those lovely ladies strengthen us with just simple words. It’s beautiful. Shoutout to your wife and you for taking this project on for so long. It’s amazing and so are y’all.
Your words at around minute 30 nearly got me to tears. I may be only 15 but i am proud of you for saying that out loud. You are doing a great job at entertaining your Community and you also are doing a super good job on the build. ❤
Bruce your honestly and authenticity are refreshing. You are an inspiration to many of us and we appreciate all you do! Your videos were the first ones I found on RUclips when I decided to do a system in my car after being out of the car audio world for almost 20 years. I had a lot to relearn and discover but because of you I believed I could do it. Thank you!
I'm just a nobody, small fish in a big pond kind of person. I've commented in a previous video with all the reasons why I like Exo. The biggest, most important one being humility. I truly appreciate it. The struggles you presented are real and if we were honest with ourselves we deal with the same issues as well. Thank you for giving us a glimpse of your reality. It is refreshing. Especially when you have the power of editing. It makes me want more. It makes me WANT to see your work. I'm pretty sure I have the same sentiment as every one else when I say It's your build. It's you ride. It's yours Exo and while I know you want to be open to opinions and advice at the same time who cares. As I build my 1970 Beetle I eventually came to the same conclusion that I'm doing it my way for my reasons. As for the one or two that have something negative to say well I just don't care and it's their problem. I like to sing the Frank Sinatra song a lot. I did it my way. In summation and for what it's worth, I am super happy for you Exo. Take ease!
Ah yes, the inner critic is your worst enemy. I'm so proud of you to even talk about this stuff. Some of us suffer greatly in their own heads, but you keep pushing through and help thousands of other souls. Love you man
I have been watching this build from day 1. Gotta tell you that I think you are one hell of a 1 guy show. You have done this entire build by yourself, and it's amazing, don't swear or care about what any trools think. I personally think you are the man! Keep up the fantastic work buddy!
Everybody's talking about how long it's taking to complete, but he's a working man with a regular job, and he's building it out of his pockets with minimal sponsorship. EXO, if you turn this into a business you can give Steve Meade some serious competition.
You're the most humble builder on youtube that i know of. You're doing all of this yourself without any fancy tools, which is amazing. I never saw the original built, but this is next level. Taking all your learnt from the old and updating with the new
Most builds don't even paint at all, 99% of us watching would say it looks awesome, you're going to win every show, can't wait to see the thunder my man!
I have watched every second of this build since the beginning. The work that goes into this entire production is insane. And every episode is so quality and edited to perfection. I feel like i speak for all of us in saying this. Your doing an absolutely AMAZING JOB. and dont let anyone allow you to think otherwise buddy.
30:10 all that emotion just shows your truly proud and happy with what you made, i know tons of people jump for joy when they see you upload and its not because they wanna see what you may have messed up but so they can see what magnificent thing you've done this time..... keep your chin up Bruce, your doing amazing
Ok, I just read and 'thumbs upped' a few hundred comments and I never saw one that was negative or even critical about your choices or your work. We're all on your side Exo!
this build in itself is awesome ,but the fact that you've done this by yourself, sets you at a level above those who have had theirs done by somebody else, heck yeah
Man this has been heck of a journey so far. When I see these new videos pop up I stop what I’m doing and watch. The enclosure looks amazing. Don’t worry about the naysayers. Your attention to detail speaks for itself. Very proud of you and all the hard work you’ve put into it. This will be a RUclips milestone as far as a beginning to end audio build.
Came for the sweet sweet bass, stayed for the positivity. Been watching a long time. I love that you addressed the feelings because that's real, and it's real tough! Happy to see you overcome. BTW I'm watching on a pretty big screen at full res and it looks AWESOME. You've put so much work into all the small details, you're allowed to not put 125% into every single possible thing. Can't wait to see this thing blow the roof off once you finish!
I can't believe the insane amount of time engineering and work u have put into this build especially factoring in the fact u did 97% of the work yourself. I'm blown away EXO YOUR THE MAN
You're the best install on RUclips by a mile. Detail, skills and the effort you put in is first class. Not forgetting how long you take to make these videos for us to enjoy. Ignore the idiots, simple as that
The look of Passion for Excellence in this Mans eyes is truly Basshead heart felt, I shed a tear of glee for him, I'm there with him trying to hold up, place into, give him motivation, you Sir are doing this for us we thank you for," 16 Black Tons of Fun." Guinness book of world records should be knocking on your door soon. This is ART of BASS,at it's finest!
I was a certified installer for Pioneer electronics in the late 80's and still love car audio. You absolutely rock, brother ! And so will your build !!! Keep it up .
Brother, the ones that talk trash or tire kick are just people with no aspirations or goals. They’re talking to themselves in those comments. I just realized I’ve been following you for 4 years and have watched every video and not once thought, “he just messed up” or whatever. You’re a beast man. Make yourself happy and that’s all that matters!
EXO I've been watching for over 10 years and I love everything you do!! Your passion for this hobby is incredibly contagious. The attention to detail and hard work you put into your projects have been a big inspiration for me. Can't wait to see the end result of the Behemoth!!
Bruce, you never cease to amaze me with your work. This is an awesome build and extremely impressive that you accomplished this. I've been watching for 10+ years, and I love to see you've come so far.
I don't comment much, have been subscribed since the beginning, and have watched you over the years. It's good you have those feelings about how people see your work. That's what makes us better. Guides us to perfect our art. This build is absolutely stunning, and it really shows the professionalism and progress you have made over the years. We are all very proud of you, Bruce. You have come so far, and it really shows. Amazing job. Keep your head high brother!!
The detail and time and energy not to mention money spent on this build is so incredible. I have to get a demo of this in person when it’s done. This is amazing EXO.
Thank you, for being open about your struggle. I think we can see how much you have learned, from your previous projects, your quality is so high. To see you so happy, the project finally coming together and is looking so good, makes this one of my favorite videos of yours.
Bruce you can’t let what other people think define how you feel or you think man. If you do that, you’ll never be happy or satisfied with anything. It’s not worth it. If you do want or listen to anyone’s opinion, listen to your loved ones or your close friends, not people on the internet that don’t have a clue who you really are. Excellent work by the way. 😂😂😂
There is nothing wrong with someone giving their all, no matter what the results. Kudos for having the guts to try something new. It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks but you!
That's what Trolls do to people. They don't realize there's a human being with feelings that's being hurt and that can make a person over think the smallest things. Looks beautiful, Exo!
Anyone that speaks down on your work is only doing it out of envy! You my friend are an artist. Build what you want and be proud of what you've done. The amount of work and detail you have is second to none!!
Never doubt yourself. You are doing an amazing job, mostly by yourself, with a super complex and time consuming build, that the “haters” could NEVER complete.
Duuuuuude! This build is level 10 thousand! I've been doing car audio for 35 years and getting to 25% of what your building would be a life accomplishment!
I can only imagine the stress and weight this build is on you and your love ones. Just know there are a lot of people out here finding joy in your build. I'm definitely one of them cheering you on. The last two years have just been crazy for me. I really look forward to your videos and progress on your build! Thank you.
In an electrician and believe me when I say a HOLDING screwdriver saves A LOT of curse words man! Love watching your wire management because it’s my daily at work. Very satisfying
I'm a fellow Electrician - I studied him hard when he did the garage wiring 😂. EXO has impressed me for years to make the most out of every tool he has. Many men didn't even understand the screwdriver graffic he edited into that bit.
@@bringmeyourweak his craftsmanship in general is really impressive. I have coworkers who do worse electrical work than he does and they’re considered professionals haha
Don't ever call your feeling stupid. Don't ever apologize to people or to yourself about how you feel. As for being sensitive. That in its self makes you a great person. Your work is top notch and I definitely envy you. Thank you for sharing your story, your build and most of all your feelings.
Truck is looking fantastic! 100,000 dollar build, easy and you did it all. The bedliner is beautiful! Don’t ever worry about what idiots will say. Those of us that have done similar things appreciate what you have done!
As one of your fans that’s been following you for years… do what YOU want man, this build is absolutely amazing. The amount of detail you’re putting into this one is incredible and anyone that has anything negative to say can f themselves. You’re doing an amazing job brotha!
Bro, you are an absolute inspiration. You have nothing to worry about when it comes to what other people think. Us Bass heads WORSHIP your commitment to your project!! By far the most meaningful build on the planet hands down. Keep pushing brother!
exo ive been watching you for some time now.. and when you where beating yourself up about the paint i totally feel your pain but i just want to remind you the only one beating yourself up is you... sometimes when im at work and i cant get my machine up and running and i try all the tricks in my book,im usually the go to guy about a problem or advice on how to fix things and when i cant fix it, i just beat myself to death. but if you take a step back and look at it from a distance youll realize its actually not that bad and notice some of the biggest things become the smallest obstacles..sometimes our passion becomes so strong it gets in the way of ourselves and we end up spiraling outa control. having to much passion for what ya love is a gift and a curse my friend.. keep up the work..........dont worry about what people will say because after your done with this van you wont be able to hear them anyways!!!
Nice work EXO! Better than anything I ever thought of doing & I've been in electronics as a career for 20 yrs. Keep rockin it & keep being real, you don't know how many ppl you're helping to just navigate life. You're a blessing!
Thanks for sharing everything, dude! You're seriously teaching life lessons through absurd bass builds haha Making the world a better place! Thank you!
What an Awesome Job! There is no way I could even try to attempt to do what you have accomplished in this build! My mind is blown on how you figured everything out before even starting this build! Wow, Great Job! You are a very intelligent and passionate person, looking forward to the finished product!
You're so raw, uncut, and vulnerable and I love that about you brother. Always be yourself and nothing else and never care what anybody else has to say. None of those haters could even come close to what you're doing. Much love to you brother. ❤❤❤❤
I'm shocked how much I anticipate your videos. Your videos are so awesome. I can't imagine how difficult being a RUclips super star would be. I hear RUclipsr after RUclipsr talk about how negative comments from viewers bothers them. It is brutal. You are not alone. You are one of the best content creators out there. I appreciate all that you do and all that you put up with to create these videos. Your workmanship is second to none. Know that most of us really love your videos!
I think you're doing an incredible job on this build, man. If anyone is dumb enough to criticize anything about your project, just tell them to do one better if they think they can. The passion that you are pouring into this really shows. This is a labor of love, and if you love it, then that's all that matters. Screw the rest of them!
damn exo, i've been watching you for years even after i grew out of the car audio scene, and i am still amazed by your attention to detail to do things properly without going the lazy route. your attitude and character is inspirational dude. such a humble and talented guy.
All that matters is that you like your work. This build is for you! This is your passion! With that said, this is far beyond anything I would be willing to do myself. I think what you've done is amazing.
The amount of man hours EXO has put in on this build is amazing. Real fabricators see this and are in awe. Every step that he finishes, only reveals more man hours of work. THIS IS THE HARDEST WORKING MAN ON RUclips! Then this beast goes inside and edits for ever! Not once has this man even complained during this build. You sir a true inspiration.
I think I’ve been watching for 10 years or longer. It feels that way. Bro you are a legend in the community no true bass guy doesn’t know who you are. And anybody who knows you is going to put down anyone trying to talk shit about anything you’ve built. Because YOU are building it while other people are BUYING it
The build is so damn awesome looking. Awesome its slowly coming together cant wait just patiently waiting for new video's to drop. Holy crap thats alot of wire sorry you got a directional rca ran the wrong way. Wish i had 6 of those cells lol thats a huge bank of cells.
I'm glad you pulled yourself back together on spraying.. Like what others said, forget the haters. You did this, with some help of course.. Those haters aren't doing anything but hating.. It looks like a sweet build, bro.. Thought out and well executed.. Can't wait to come rolling up to you show and seeing your loud and proud creation... GGs young Man GGs .
This thing is gonna knock the soul outta quite a few people I am quite sure of it. Your hard work and dedication is now becoming something even more than I expected. Respect.
Showing the difficult stuff and the solutions that worked is helpful to others who think it's just done with no trouble. And the hot glue tip is something a viewer can store in the back of their mind for when they encounter a similar problem.
We are only limited by our own willingness to just try. That's where exo comes in. You've done more then 95% of anyone else by just trying. Keep your chin up dude! Well done sir!
As a old school man, your doing a great job, and just remember that you can't please everyone. If you're happy with the job, that's awesome and you have the right to be proud of it. Nice work, looking forward to seeing it, and wish I could hear it,
BRO!! Your legit!! Don't let people bring you down. It all stems from how jelly they are that you get to live a life and creat amazing things and they can't. Keep up the amazing work we all love ya. EXO FOR PRESIDENT 2024
Best video yet EXO. Fantastic! Nice to see all the mistakes also. I feel like a complete nut case when I'm building, and is good to see, even the best struggles with builds. Thanks a million for the video!
The look after your spray painting is amazing! I get what you feel about the fear of failing when you put your heart and soul into a project, especially something you haven't tried before, believe me i have eyes watching my every move on project upgrades on my ambulance, you feel the judgement at every step... But I've learnt to not let the remarks guide me or drive me down and continue to learn and improve myself. Hopefully EXO, you will do the same!
exo buddy myself and many other fans have been watching you for years not waiting for the perfect outcome but following you on this journey sharing your love for music and bass. you sir are an role model for many out there
Appreciate the behind-the-scenes transparency. Been watching (across different accounts) for roughly 10 years now. It definitely doesn't feel like it's been that long. Thanks for sticking with it and putting out informative and entertaining content. The build looks amazing!
Be proud man. I've seen lots of builds, but none of them have a story like this one. You and this have been a source of inspiration since the build started. Keep it up!
It's easy to be to close to a project and to start to over emphasis the details while also over looking the project as a whole. I think it's time to roll the truck outside on a sunny day, get a lawn chair, sit 30 feet away, and just spend 30 minutes looking at what you have built. This project is so over the top, it was such a massive undertaking, and you have such a passion for the details. I find myself looking at the things you stress over and thinking "Man, it's not that big of a deal". But, that attention to detail is going to make this truck last, and I think that is your goal; something that will pound for years to come.
Anyone that's even close to being a bass head knows you have gone thru extremely tough times on this build you have come so far I can't wait to get a chance to hear it I'm 46 been bassng since 96 this for me has been inspirational because of how well you do things you go top notch on everything and use your experience with other builds to perfect the next always impressed sir you keep it up
If EXO is happy, im happy. I love the nice grey look to it and i hope he knows how happy a vast majority of us in the comments here are, to see him post another video. Honestly, i just about lost it when i seen this in my subscriptions panel today.🥰
The only guys that are going to make negative comments about your build are the ones that can't afford to do one of their own so they pick at yours. They probably have Walmart setups that meter a 135 on a good day. I think your build is amazing dude. The fact that you did all that by yourself is pretty unbelievable. I say this every video but I can't wait till it's done. It's going to be a main attraction for sure, event take overs ahead!
I wana Thank you, your knowledge taught me how to elevate my car audio game to the next level! I wish you lived close to me!!!! Your van looks amazing the passion shows.
EXO videos are not just bass and technical knoledge videos....its a whole lot more.... i am glad i found this channel on this platform...always enjoyed yor videos man ...learned a lot ... maybe will more...stay blessed sir,
Don't doubt yourself, man! Everything is looking insane. I have been following along the entire time and by far the sickest build I have ever seen. People will be too wowed to see any of the imperfections only you know about.
I can’t wait to see the finished product! I’ve kept up with this build from the beginning. I will say that I’ve not witnessed any shortcuts in the build. Most of the time you go above a beyond to make sure it is perfect.
SOOO HAPPY WITH THE RESULTS!!! 🤩
🔥🔥🔥well u did a great job bro I’m happy for you that’s a hard work right there for people who understand how many hours and effort u spend on the project it looks really good bro I’m happy for u bro been here on the Chanel since the beginning keep up the good work and stay positive 👊 greetings from germany 🍻
ME TOO!! (Haven't even watched the video yet)
Been waiting for this video
Everything looks great 👍🏻
If you cut the "factory" end off of the tech flex, which is melted to keep it from fraying, it should allow it to open enough to get the wire in.
to see the man go from a mini van with bass to this FUCKING EPIC van of detailed skilled labour is exceptional!!! FANTASTIC WORK, EXO!!!!!!
I can't wait just got a brand new 5.9 ltr engine put in my 96 Dodge truck. Miss my sound system
Especially the exodition named Frankenstein he built was very nice
Dnt forget his Toyota Sequoia
I thought it was a focking earthquake or something!!!! Frankenstein was a beast. And that was before the wall.
There's a reason that over half a million of us have subscribed to your channel. You are knowledgeable, talented, and super entertaining!

Still have my eyes out for an alpine 7831 with the 4v preouts lol.
I'm 46, and these guy's brought back into car audio, with a vengeance no less, since my day's from the 90's about 10 years ago and have never looked back.

Keep that same energy and give us a update after 30 years lol! After being married for 30 years I'm thinking back. thanks to my wife I'm still alive!
Your words at around minute 30 nearly got me to tears. I may be only 15 but i am proud of you for saying that out loud. You are doing a great job at entertaining your Community and you also are doing a super good job on the build. ❤
To hell with the haters 👍 Nobody is doing this much work all by themselves, and ain't nobody doing it this damn well either!
Bruce your honestly and authenticity are refreshing. You are an inspiration to many of us and we appreciate all you do! Your videos were the first ones I found on RUclips when I decided to do a system in my car after being out of the car audio world for almost 20 years.

I'm so proud of you to even talk about this stuff. Some of us suffer greatly in their own heads, but you keep pushing through and help thousands of other souls.
Love you man
I've never met EXO - I love him like a brother. The devotion to himself and the community is astounding!
I have been watching this build from day 1. Gotta tell you that I think you are one hell of a 1 guy show. You have done this entire build by yourself, and it's amazing, don't swear or care about what any trools think. I personally think you are the man! Keep up the fantastic work buddy!
Everybody's talking about how long it's taking to complete, but he's a working man with a regular job, and he's building it out of his pockets with minimal sponsorship.

It's official at this point - this is the most epic bass build on youtube.
Most builds don't even paint at all, 99% of us watching would say it looks awesome, you're going to win every show, can't wait to see the thunder my man!
Exactly it’s so cool

We can be our own harshest critics sometimes. Thanks for sharing your experiences and being a positive motivator!
EXO you are the truth!!!! I love your passion and you have grown to be one of the best especially with your eye for detail ❤❤
Man this has been heck of a journey so far. When I see these new videos pop up I stop what I’m doing and watch. The enclosure looks amazing. Don’t worry about the naysayers. Your attention to detail speaks for itself. Very proud of you and all the hard work you’ve put into it. This will be a RUclips milestone as far as a beginning to end audio build.
Always loved Exo. Dude is like most of us not some hyper spoiled kid but a dude who just makes that bass
Came for the sweet sweet bass, stayed for the positivity. Been watching a long time. I love that you addressed the feelings because that's real, and it's real tough! Happy to see you overcome. BTW I'm watching on a pretty big screen at full res and it looks AWESOME. You've put so much work into all the small details, you're allowed to not put 125% into every single possible thing. Can't wait to see this thing blow the roof off once you finish!
I can't believe the insane amount of time engineering and work u have put into this build especially factoring in the fact u did 97% of the work yourself. I'm blown away EXO YOUR THE MAN
no cap, my jaw dropped when you revealed the finished coating. It's absolutely stunning Bruce!
Dude. This build is completely over the top. And I don’t see many corners cut here. I am absolutely amazed by how far you’ve come.
You said many, but I think you meant any..
You're the best install on RUclips by a mile. Detail, skills and the effort you put in is first class. Not forgetting how long you take to make these videos for us to enjoy.
Ignore the idiots, simple as that
The look of Passion for Excellence in this Mans eyes is truly Basshead heart felt, I shed a tear of glee for him, I'm there with him trying to hold up, place into, give him motivation, you Sir are doing this for us we thank you for," 16 Black Tons of Fun." Guinness book of world records should be knocking on your door soon. This is ART of BASS,at it's finest!
I had a bad day. I was going to bed sad but I saw ur video an it gave me a smile. Thank u I’m looking ist right now🙏🏻
I was a certified installer for Pioneer electronics in the late 80's and still love car audio. You absolutely rock, brother ! And so will your build !!! Keep it up .
Brother, the ones that talk trash or tire kick are just people with no aspirations or goals. They’re talking to themselves in those comments. I just realized I’ve been following you for 4 years and have watched every video and not once thought, “he just messed up” or whatever. You’re a beast man. Make yourself happy and that’s all that matters!
EXO I've been watching for over 10 years and I love everything you do!! Your passion for this hobby is incredibly contagious. The attention to detail and hard work you put into your projects have been a big inspiration for me. Can't wait to see the end result of the Behemoth!!
Bruce, you never cease to amaze me with your work. This is an awesome build and extremely impressive that you accomplished this. I've been watching for 10+ years, and I love to see you've come so far.
I don't comment much, have been subscribed since the beginning, and have watched you over the years. It's good you have those feelings about how people see your work. That's what makes us better. Guides us to perfect our art. This build is absolutely stunning, and it really shows the professionalism and progress you have made over the years. We are all very proud of you, Bruce.

The detail and time and energy not to mention money spent on this build is so incredible. I have to get a demo of this in person when it’s done. This is amazing EXO.
Thank you, for being open about your struggle.
I think we can see how much you have learned, from your previous projects, your quality is so high.
To see you so happy, the project finally coming together and is looking so good, makes this one of my favorite videos of yours.
As a casual observer of this build, it brought me to tears. Dude you are doing what you were born to do
I posted the first comment not even half way through the video. Now I’m 80% through. Still tears, but fuck anyone who would hate on this. Fuck em
Can't wait to see this build playing! Another excellent and inspirational video. Keep up the great work EXO!
Bruce you can’t let what other people think define how you feel or you think man. If you do that, you’ll never be happy or satisfied with anything. It’s not worth it. If you do want or listen to anyone’s opinion, listen to your loved ones or your close friends, not people on the internet that don’t have a clue who you really are. Excellent work by the way. 😂😂😂
There is nothing wrong with someone giving their all, no matter what the results. Kudos for having the guts to try something new. It doesn’t matter what anyone thinks but you!
That's what Trolls do to people. They don't realize there's a human being with feelings that's being hurt and that can make a person over think the smallest things. Looks beautiful, Exo!
Anyone that speaks down on your work is only doing it out of envy! You my friend are an artist. Build what you want and be proud of what you've done. The amount of work and detail you have is second to none!!
Looks Great ! Your enthusiasm just shows your passion for the build ! Sometimes it's okay to step back and take a breath ! Clears the brain
Never doubt yourself. You are doing an amazing job, mostly by yourself, with a super complex and time consuming build, that the “haters” could NEVER complete.
Bruce, the transformation from Frankenstein to where you are now is incredible. Don’t let anyone tell you otherwise my man.
Solo and filming non the less !! Man is a one man army !
Duuuuuude! This build is level 10 thousand! I've been doing car audio for 35 years and getting to 25% of what your building would be a life accomplishment!
I can only imagine the stress and weight this build is on you and your love ones. Just know there are a lot of people out here finding joy in your build. I'm definitely one of them cheering you on. The last two years have just been crazy for me. I really look forward to your videos and progress on your build! Thank you.
In an electrician and believe me when I say a HOLDING screwdriver saves A LOT of curse words man! Love watching your wire management because it’s my daily at work. Very satisfying
I'm a fellow Electrician - I studied him hard when he did the garage wiring 😂. EXO has impressed me for years to make the most out of every tool he has. Many men didn't even understand the screwdriver graffic he edited into that bit.
@@bringmeyourweak graphic. Sorry I couldn't ignore it.
@@bringmeyourweak his craftsmanship in general is really impressive. I have coworkers who do worse electrical work than he does and they’re considered professionals haha
Don't ever call your feeling stupid. Don't ever apologize to people or to yourself about how you feel. As for being sensitive. That in its self makes you a great person. Your work is top notch and I definitely envy you. Thank you for sharing your story, your build and most of all your feelings.
Nice 🙂
you have come so far from the mini van with a sub to a van built full of subs. I love this build keep it up.
Truck is looking fantastic! 100,000 dollar build, easy and you did it all. The bedliner is beautiful! Don’t ever worry about what idiots will say. Those of us that have done similar things appreciate what you have done!
As one of your fans that’s been following you for years… do what YOU want man, this build is absolutely amazing. The amount of detail you’re putting into this one is incredible and anyone that has anything negative to say can f themselves. You’re doing an amazing job brotha!
Bro, you are an absolute inspiration. You have nothing to worry about when it comes to what other people think. Us Bass heads WORSHIP your commitment to your project!! By far the most meaningful build on the planet hands down. Keep pushing brother!
Ll😅ll??😅
exo ive been watching you for some time now.. and when you where beating yourself up about the paint i totally feel your pain but i just want to remind you the only one beating yourself up is you... sometimes when im at work and i cant get my machine up and running and i try all the tricks in my book,im usually the go to guy about a problem or advice on how to fix things and when i cant fix it, i just beat myself to death. but if you take a step back and look at it from a distance youll realize its actually not that bad and notice some of the biggest things become the smallest obstacles..sometimes our passion becomes so strong it gets in the way of ourselves and we end up spiraling outa control. having to much passion for what ya love is a gift and a curse my friend.. keep up the work..........dont worry about what people will say because after your done with this van you wont be able to hear them anyways!!!
Nice work EXO! Better than anything I ever thought of doing & I've been in electronics as a career for 20 yrs. Keep rockin it & keep being real, you don't know how many ppl you're helping to just navigate life. You're a blessing!
dude your build looks so CLEAN! amazing work
Thanks for sharing everything, dude! You're seriously teaching life lessons through absurd bass builds haha Making the world a better place! Thank you!
What an Awesome Job! There is no way I could even try to attempt to do what you have accomplished in this build! My mind is blown on how you figured everything out before even starting this build! Wow, Great Job! You are a very intelligent and passionate person, looking forward to the finished product!
You're so raw, uncut, and vulnerable and I love that about you brother. Always be yourself and nothing else and never care what anybody else has to say. None of those haters could even come close to what you're doing. Much love to you brother. ❤❤❤❤
I'm shocked how much I anticipate your videos. Your videos are so awesome. I can't imagine how difficult being a RUclips super star would be. I hear RUclipsr after RUclipsr talk about how negative comments from viewers bothers them. It is brutal. You are not alone. You are one of the best content creators out there. I appreciate all that you do and all that you put up with to create these videos. Your workmanship is second to none. Know that most of us really love your videos!
I think you're doing an incredible job on this build, man. If anyone is dumb enough to criticize anything about your project, just tell them to do one better if they think they can. The passion that you are pouring into this really shows. This is a labor of love, and if you love it, then that's all that matters. Screw the rest of them!
damn exo, i've been watching you for years even after i grew out of the car audio scene, and i am still amazed by your attention to detail to do things properly without going the lazy route. your attitude and character is inspirational dude. such a humble and talented guy.
God dang, you did such an amazing job. I can’t believe how professional that is. I could never do that.
All that matters is that you like your work. This build is for you! This is your passion! With that said, this is far beyond anything I would be willing to do myself. I think what you've done is amazing.
I have zero interest in Car Audio, but I love your passion and that keeps me watching every video. Thank you, you are amazing!
The amount of man hours EXO has put in on this build is amazing. Real fabricators see this and are in awe. Every step that he finishes, only reveals more man hours of work. THIS IS THE HARDEST WORKING MAN ON RUclips! Then this beast goes inside and edits for ever! Not once has this man even complained during this build. You sir a true inspiration.
I think I’ve been watching for 10 years or longer. It feels that way. Bro you are a legend in the community no true bass guy doesn’t know who you are. And anybody who knows you is going to put down anyone trying to talk shit about anything you’ve built. Because YOU are building it while other people are BUYING it
HAPPY 35TH EXO!! I LOVE YOUR VIDS MAN!
The build is so damn awesome looking. Awesome its slowly coming together cant wait just patiently waiting for new video's to drop. Holy crap thats alot of wire sorry you got a directional rca ran the wrong way. Wish i had 6 of those cells lol thats a huge bank of cells.
Yeeee boiiiiii. Another EXO upload!
Yes sir we have been waiting for EXO !!!! Outstanding as usual !!!
I'm glad you pulled yourself back together on spraying.. Like what others said, forget the haters. You did this, with some help of course.. Those haters aren't doing anything but hating.. It looks like a sweet build, bro.. Thought out and well executed.. Can't wait to come rolling up to you show and seeing your loud and proud creation... GGs young Man GGs .
Been waiting ❤
finally, some exo content
Only true fans can like the comment
This thing is gonna knock the soul outta quite a few people I am quite sure of it. Your hard work and dedication is now becoming something even more than I expected. Respect.
Showing the difficult stuff and the solutions that worked is helpful to others who think it's just done with no trouble. And the hot glue tip is something a viewer can store in the back of their mind for when they encounter a similar problem.
We are only limited by our own willingness to just try. That's where exo comes in. You've done more then 95% of anyone else by just trying. Keep your chin up dude! Well done sir!
As a old school man, your doing a great job, and just remember that you can't please everyone. If you're happy with the job, that's awesome and you have the right to be proud of it. Nice work, looking forward to seeing it, and wish I could hear it,
BRO!! Your legit!! Don't let people bring you down. It all stems from how jelly they are that you get to live a life and creat amazing things and they can't. Keep up the amazing work we all love ya. EXO FOR PRESIDENT 2024
You know its a good day when exo uploads
Best video yet EXO.
Fantastic!
Nice to see all the mistakes also.
I feel like a complete nut case when I'm building, and is good to see, even the best struggles with builds.
Thanks a million for the video!
The look after your spray painting is amazing! I get what you feel about the fear of failing when you put your heart and soul into a project, especially something you haven't tried before, believe me i have eyes watching my every move on project upgrades on my ambulance, you feel the judgement at every step... But I've learnt to not let the remarks guide me or drive me down and continue to learn and improve myself. Hopefully EXO, you will do the same!
exo buddy myself and many other fans have been watching you for years not waiting for the perfect outcome but following you on this journey sharing your love for music and bass.
you sir are an role model for many out there
The national electric grid is jealous of the neatness of wiring and power transfer rates 😎
Appreciate the behind-the-scenes transparency. Been watching (across different accounts) for roughly 10 years now. It definitely doesn't feel like it's been that long. Thanks for sticking with it and putting out informative and entertaining content. The build looks amazing!
Be proud man. I've seen lots of builds, but none of them have a story like this one. You and this have been a source of inspiration since the build started. Keep it up!
Man that first coat looked good as gold but that second coat iced the cake GREAT JOB WELL DONE BRO
It's easy to be to close to a project and to start to over emphasis the details while also over looking the project as a whole.
I think it's time to roll the truck outside on a sunny day, get a lawn chair, sit 30 feet away, and just spend 30 minutes looking at what you have built.
This project is so over the top, it was such a massive undertaking, and you have such a passion for the details.
I find myself looking at the things you stress over and thinking "Man, it's not that big of a deal".
But, that attention to detail is going to make this truck last, and I think that is your goal; something that will pound for years to come.
Anyone that's even close to being a bass head knows you have gone thru extremely tough times on this build you have come so far I can't wait to get a chance to hear it I'm 46 been bassng since 96 this for me has been inspirational because of how well you do things you go top notch on everything and use your experience with other builds to perfect the next always impressed sir you keep it up
If EXO is happy, im happy. I love the nice grey look to it and i hope he knows how happy a vast majority of us in the comments here are, to see him post another video. Honestly, i just about lost it when i seen this in my subscriptions panel today.🥰
The only guys that are going to make negative comments about your build are the ones that can't afford to do one of their own so they pick at yours. They probably have Walmart setups that meter a 135 on a good day. I think your build is amazing dude. The fact that you did all that by yourself is pretty unbelievable. I say this every video but I can't wait till it's done. It's going to be a main attraction for sure, event take overs ahead!
You are an inspiration EXO!!! keep doing what your doing brother
I wana Thank you, your knowledge taught me how to elevate my car audio game to the next level! I wish you lived close to me!!!! Your van looks amazing the passion shows.
EXO videos are not just bass and technical knoledge videos....its a whole lot more.... i am glad i found this channel on this platform...always enjoyed yor videos man ...learned a lot ... maybe will more...stay blessed sir,
Don't doubt yourself, man! Everything is looking insane. I have been following along the entire time and by far the sickest build I have ever seen. People will be too wowed to see any of the imperfections only you know about.
I can’t wait to see the finished product! I’ve kept up with this build from the beginning. I will say that I’ve not witnessed any shortcuts in the build. Most of the time you go above a beyond to make sure it is perfect.
LONG time viewer same old classic EXO footage better than ever feels like im back 10-15 yrs ago never change my dude!
