- This year's build got a little out of hand for the Great Guitar Build Off
I wish I could say this was fun... but I did learn a lot from this build
Stained Walnut Body and Maple accent
Maple Neck and Ebony Fretboard
Seymour Duncan Hot Strat Set
HipShot Bridge and Tuners
![[GUITAR BUILD] The Balcony Stratocaster (full build + sound test)](/img/1.gif)
come to brazil 🇧🇷
Glad to see not everyone relies on epoxy or resin to make a totally cool build
@@machinebeard1639what if they use Craftsman tools?
Could definitely use some epoxy
Not only a great build but I can't even begin to imagine the thought process of not only building it but creating the idea in your mind. Excellent work.
As you say .. it's a bit delicate but the competition is not about building the most robust guitar.
Beautiful work and great video/camera work.
I struggled very much deciding what this build wanted to be. After the neck build I took a complete 180 and gambled on a new idea. Even after countless hours on the previous idea. Thank you for watching my friend very much appreciate the comment
hands down the most meticulous hand build I've ever seen. Stunning work.
Hey thanks for the nice word friend 🙏🏻
Now we know what to do with leftover popsicles sticks!
Beautiful build, totally unconventional that’s gotta win for sure.
Hey thanks for commenting. Collecting popsicle sticks as we speak
I once saw a guitar body made from coloured pencils, it was trippy!
This is amazing, i appreciate the amount of work that went into this.
looked more elegant around the 3:24 mark Loved the neck.
I also thought so, I love that heatsink look!
I am thinking of 3D printing a guitar body in PETG Carbon Fibre, this has given me some inspiration!
This is absolutely epic!!!! Good luck with the competition!
Thank you my friend 🙏🏻
Thanks for sharing this. It was helpful to see your process.
I’m glad to share the process. It’s nice to rewind and see the process from the start again
Top notch artistry!
Truly unconventional and imaginative! Painstaking build, especially in such a noisy environment...
Well done!!!!
Thank you it wasn’t easy when pieces start breaking on you!
Detail and craftsmanship is superbe !
Amazing! Good luck with the competition 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you very much my friend. It will be an exciting competition
I can only imagine the hours of chisel sharpening that went into making this amazing work of art!
Sounds great.
Imagine all that chiseling just to say fuck it.
That’s exactly what I saw. I think normal people don’t realize the time ratio of tool use:tool maintenance. I don’t love sharpening like some people, but a good sharp chisel is so rewarding to use and necessary for this kind of detail work.
😮I AM MOSHING IN MY PANTS RIGHT NOW!!!😂 SICK BUILD BRO!!! DAYUM...I WANT ONE!!!😮❤
Your builds are so creative!
Great work!!
Glad you think so. I hope to keep making them nice
Cool idea, looks like tons of work to make it!
You don’t know the half of it! Thanks for watching !
@@miamiguitarscustom Ive got a bit of an idea lol. Congrats awesome guitar.
Really nice work!!
Thanks a lot! Thanks for watching it
This is true craftsmanship. Well done. 👍
Thank you very much
Epic build!
Cheers from Texas!
🤘😺🤘
Thanks for watching my friend !
That is amazing 👏
Thanks so much for checking it out 🙏🏻
Awesome!
Thank you very much 🙏🏻
Looks great, sounds great.
I’m glad you do think it sounds nice
Fantastic workmanship beyond🎸🎸🎸
Thank you kindly!
Brilliant!!!!
Hey thanks for the comment !!
Very unique build, nice craftsmanship
Thank you very much. Love that profile picture!
Very awesome
Hey thanks for watching !
What a bold project 🔥👏👏👏👏💯💯💯
I’m glad you think it’s bold !
That was a huge load of work, but it was worth it in the end. Incredible! You have my vote dude and best of luck!
Hey man thanks a ton I’m glad you like the piece
Very cool guitar 🎸
Thank you I tried 🙏🏻
Very interesting and artistic guitar... I might have put a deep blue of the lighter parts though. Sounds fantastic too. Very well done.
Thank you kindly, not a bad suggestion thank you
Same as other comments, to imagine that is quite something, to build it something else!! Amazing job, good luck in the ggbo
Thank you Philip I’m pretty proud of how it came out, it’s not perfect but I’m very very happy with it
Ben will be proud of this. !!!
I don't know what's better.. the guitar or the demo at the end! I love it ❤
I’m biased for both !
insane!!!
That’s insanely cool
Hey thanks you for that!
Every part of this is unnecessarily complicated. I love it!
That was the frustrating part. When I found ways to make it complicated
now that is a unique design!
I think so too thanks so much!!
great result
I really liked both variants. The "simply slotted" body of the first half of the video already looked great. I wasn't expecting the change starting at 08:04, but it turned out great.
After I completed the build on the first variant I took a long look and it just didn’t satisfy something in my gut. Made twice the work for myself but I ended up happy in the end
Sick
This build turned out amazing, I don't even want to think of how much work all these individual parts were. I was complaining about the cutouts on mine, but you have like 20 times as many :D
Hey man thank you! Countless hours I tell you 🤕
Absolutely fantastic. A true piece of art. Killer sound demo too!
Hell yea hardcore. Thanks for watching friend 🙏🏻
That tone tho 🔥
I keep that thing on me 🔥
Beautiful! Is it comfortable?
I think that’s the best builder instrument demo I’ve ever heard. Bravo!
Thank you very much! I can tell you it’s not uncomfortable at all on the lap. I will say that one should be careful resting it on your body Bc of the rear panel is a little delicate
I’m a RUclips junkie!!!! But this construction blew my mind!!!!
Hahaha thanks for that !!
that fretboard is beautiful.
Simple yet nice right?
This guitar reminds me a little of of those dinosaur bone models you see in museums. Very cool, would love to hear some clean tones from it.
I think I had a human skeleton one like that haha
Almost no guitar builder can get away from the Strat!
Tried and true!
Cool artistic touch! Do you guys have guitar making classes? I'd definitely sign up if so.
Hey thanks! No classes just yet haha we started around 2019 and operate from a communal workshop finding time to do so outside of our regular jobs Thanks for watching friend
Beautiful build. Work of art. The headstock extreme angle doesn't bode well long term though.
Hey thanks for the comment! What angle are you referring to ?
@@miamiguitarscustom 11:07 the angle from the nut down to the string tree looks severe. Maybe it is just the camera angle.
🔥🔥🔥🔥COOL⭐⭐⭐⭐
Hell yea thank you 🤟🏻
And you make it look so easy...
Believe me. It was not easy
This dudes patience is off the charts lmao, imagine chiselling and sanding those slits individually 🤯
Imaging chiseling and it breaks
And it could break still
Very unique guitar but it is mostly just a wall hanger too beautiful to play at gigs but a wonderful piece of art
Sometimes you make the art. Sometimes you play the art
I would so play this 🔥
I saw the video of the guitar you built. I just love the way it looks. How much would you charge to build one for a lefthanded guitarist? As I said it's different like me.
Uff something like this would be labor intensive
More complicated is an understatement.
Hey thanks I’ll take that as a compliment !
that is just bonkers. i'm not saying i like the result, but damn, what a determination.
halfway through it looked cool tho.
Thanks for thinking it’s bonkers !
When your guitar playing is so hot, it needs a heat sink
Catch me in the pit 🥵
Carried away 😂😂 Looks like a build that could have been ejected from the nearest window on multiple occasions. Never seen a guitar quite like it 😮
Nearly tossed this one out the window many times ahahah
Nice riffage at the end btw!
Hell yea thanks ! Check out @siesta305 on Instagram for some Miami Hardcore
with the black paint, it almost looks like a burned top, but damm how ever did you get through the build without breaking those ribs from the cutting, ive would probably brake a few while making it xD
You better believe I broke a bunch
I redact my last statement. That was harsh and I apologize. That's a lot of hard work and it looked great. I hope you win.
Hey thanks so much my friend. All is well
I'm not gonna lie...a part of me died when you painted that walnut.
Ahaha be not afraid
Do you use wood glue for the frets?
Typically yes
Sir. If THIS GUITAR 🎸 Does not Win one Or Two Awards those Judges have a TASTE For 💩sh1t. This Guitar HAS so much Love put in this Design how Can Anyone Not far in love and the Sound is sweet with a taste of Metallic Sound. Well Done. Sorry but back to Work on Marking a Bass Guitar with this Design. Peace Be with You Man.
Why all the unnecessary caps?
I very much appreciate this comment my friend. Please dm me @studioroly_ and show me what you’re working on
Nice shape guitar, will that last 30 years of playing¡?
Maybe yes maybe no !
Dusto'Caster?
How long did it take to make?
I'd only be concerned about bumping into something and chipping off the edge! It's cool though!
Did plenty of that leading up to its final assembly.
ah an externally chambered guitar
Needs more chambers. Working hard right now
I love that he went to great pains to include the pickguard aesthetic, so many custom builders try to eliminate pickguards even to the point of those horrible single pickup surrounds that always cheapen the look of a "strat"
Thank you for the comment friend. If you check out my previous build I do the same. The illusion of pickguard has been a common theme I like to use
Incredible work. Well done!
Please get a push stick/handle for that table saw. I'm positive you're competent, but one mistake and your building days are screwed.
You’re absolutely right thank you for the concern thanks for watching 🙏🏻
@@miamiguitarscustom thank you for sharing that awesome build. I popped over here from r/luthier, where I saw your post. Glad to be your newest subscriber.
I would end up accidentally breaking off a bunch of those body fins. I already know it
He does a more expensive version with some body fins already snapped 😊
You don’t know how many I’ve broke throughout this build
@@miamiguitarscustom lol I can imagine. If you're anything like me and don't baby your guitars. Mine have chips and dents and dings in the paint lol
😎
🫨
Interesting too look at, but I cant imagine it is comfortable to hold.....
Ehh it’s okay
Did you try to defeat Ben at making an overly complicated guitar? :) I believe you succeeded :)
Great work!
Outdoing Ben is always the goal. Thanks for watching 🤝🏻
Please tell me you named it the “Slat-O-Caster”
I’ll name it whatever chibson deems it
one word dust collector
Gotta do it the old fashion way with a bench brush
Wow, talk about a labor of love... Awesome build. Must be a bitch to wipe down if it gets dirty! Good luck with the contest.
It was a bitch to build I’ll tell you that much
Вот это вау
Thanks for the comment! Do you live in Russia ?
Geeeezzz C'mon?
I had to do it to em
Prettiest panini ever.
I’m all about bread! 🍞
gets my vote - can't understand how you can pay for the wood, and parts, and make it, AND post it to me in the UK for under $200 🤣🤣🤣 - yeah - freakin awesome.
Yes, that's seriously undervaluing the piece. The labor and brand cost alone should be several times that.
Omg, what you are trying to say: custom guitar + shipping US>UK was in total less that $200 ?
Thanks so much for the nice words 🙏🏻 I’m sure we can work out a deal hahaha
Amazing but standard tone and volume knobs were a let down.
True wish I would’ve had a little extra time to fashion a nice set. Not too late to get on that tho
2:47 wtf moment...
this is crazy...
All that work just to grind it off lol 😆
When a raging case of OCD is a Good thing...
When you ask yourself “what if” too many times throughout the build
Looks very cool, but cannot be comfortable to play!!
It’s not terrible I promise
Probably the most beautiful Strat build I've seen in all my years......
Then to ruin it with that shit song on the end, was so looking forward to hearing its tone...
DAMN!
More Complicated????
I'm surprised you didn't when by this video.
Or maybe disqualified for over building...Too hard to judge.
Beautiful workmanship...
At the end of the day I’m happy with the guitar I built. Never doing it again tho
Ive just seen so much shit I couldnt tellyou whats goin on, how many different bodies, what for.....
DAMN
Очень сложный инструмент и прекрасная,кропотливая работа
Вы мастер своего дела, спасибо из России 🤘🇷🇺♥️
Hey thanks so much for watching and for the nice words! 🇷🇺
Mmmmm. I am not sure what to think. Obviously amazing woodworking skill. Really amazing. The look however is not for me. Wow nonetheless.
Hey thanks for the kind words anyways !
@@miamiguitarscustomAnytime friend. Your skills are absolutely top notch.
*promosm*
What does that mean!
гитарка ништяк, только ты тормозишь
What does that mean
It would’ve been nice to just see the whole damn guitar instead of cutting in different angles of someone playing it.
Fair enough! Wider shots next time. Didn’t have a proper booth to take quality pics so I had to cheat and get only close ups
Tune the guitar down 4 whole steps, gain on 11, play only the E & A strings & only use the bridge pickup. Ummmm.....o.k.
So what, if that's what he had in mind when he built the guitar?
Guitar was in standard tuning. Hardcore is music background. This is what I like to play
This guitar suits the riff played perfectly: both are pure crap.
DAMN
@@miamiguitarscustom Attempted sarcasm will not make stupid music and useless guitar any better.
DOUBLE DAMN
А сделай из говна гитару?
That might be a good idea too
Sorry but I just don't get it. 😕
What don’t you get. I’ll explain it to you
You diy`ers always have same problem, your guitars sounds worse than chinese squier.
“Sound” is what you do with it.
Tim Henson sounds better on a Chinese squier than you do with half a million dollars in gear, and your mom will still blow Tim after.
What pickups you got on yours
Terrible music? Sound. . .
Not sure about the guitar.
It hurts too.
Na that’s cap 🧢
