  • At first glance, the design of this thing is totally crazy, maybe even bizarre, and there are a lot of choices made with this design that I never would have done myself, BUT when it all comes together somehow, not only does it work, but it works better than I could have ever imagined. With Fender tuners and a roller nut and roller bridge...and a Vibramate tremolo, AND strung with 8's, this guitar is super slinky and responsive! Thanks Robert!

    Honestly the choice of bridge, tuners, vibrato and pickup placement is brilliant! Namebrands take note. But 0.08s with Gretsch pickups? Imagine how good this would've sounded with PAFs and 0.10s. If that's the builders choice he is probably a very articulate player. Either way very nice build (turning a kit into a quality instrument, well thought of) and a great gift respect 👌

    What an incredibly cool and unique guitar. Hats off to the dude that made this. I love everything about this guitar; the shape, the old school looks, the rollers, everything! Filtertron pickups are so unique. Their tone has always made me think of being “frayed around the edges”. Such a distinct tone.

    The LSR roller nut is a proven winner with heavy whammy bar use. Jeff Beck Strat spec.

  • @TheDrunkenScoundrel
    @TheDrunkenScoundrel 3 месяца назад +2

    I love all the specs and how it sounds. It is gorgeous instrument....I think that ONLY thing missing form his concept is the the string gage.
    Try putting .11s on it.
    No joke.
    With that hardware package I bet heavier strings would be even better....and then you could try down-tuning etc.
    Hats-off to Robert.
    That thing is cool and unique.

    It sounds decent. Didn’t ya say it had Gretsch pick ups? Cuz I never thought about it but they sound priddy good, I think anyway. The body style looks like a Jaguar. And if it stays in tune that’s a plus especially without locks. I’m sure ya obviously can’t wrench on it. Tell dude to send me one so I can test it out. 😂 🤘 ✌🏼

    Very cool guitar. It looks like he did a very nice job putting it together. I have wanted to install a double roller system on one of my guitars for quite a while now, but haven't taken the time. Maybe this video will be the boot up the ass I needed to finally do it. It would be nice to hear a bit more about the builder, but I also understand if he doesn't want the attention.

    The vintage vibe of the body shape and the tremolo, along with the subdued color balance, makes for a cool pairing. It's like an executive's wood-paneled office from the skinny-tie era of the early 1960s -- with hardware and strings. 😄

  • @ottovonnekpunch1268

    I finally got around to seeing this video, Max! And I gotta say, "Don't judge a book..."! A first blush, this ain't your everyday Shredder's axe! But the high-quality parts, attention to build details and sweet responsiveness is simply jaw-dropping! As a hobbyist luthier, I learned a thing or two today! Outstanding guitar!👍👍👍

    @kryptych 3 месяца назад

    Beautiful guitar... it has a Jazzmaster/Jaguar meets Gretsch quality to it.
    I've been steadily outfitting my own guitars with roller-nuts and saddles - anything to reduce the friction and ensure greater tuning stability with bends and whammy dives. Great to see that he put that much thought into that aspect.
    I appreciate the principle behind the pickup spacing too, good thinking, although I do actually like those muddy neck/twangy bridge tones, LOL. Still, that guitar's tone is sweeeeeet.
    Not a huge fan of the color (might've chosen a black burst, or maybe a darker red), but it looks uniform all over, so I can't fault it.
    Chef's kiss.

    @PulauSwan 3 месяца назад

    What a magnanimous gesture, excellent features/specs .
    What's the intonation accuracy on the no.6 string? Looks like there is very little adjustment available, if the tuning is sharp?
    I've had this problem over the journey, and it's something I look for on all bridges. I am not being critical, although it may sound so. It's not easy being a luthier, which I am not. I'm a wanna be, coodabeen . Summary : Lucky Max
    Have a better day.

  • @daveweed2765
    @daveweed2765 3 месяца назад

    The only flaw that I see is where and how the jack is positioned. Right under the Whammy and to the front. Grabbing it quick you may grab the cable and miss the timing. I prefer straight jacks over the flat 90 degree ones.
    But honestly it looks and sounds good and the only flaw that I can see or mess up because flaws can add character is the posiot of the plug in with a whammy. Or technical... tromolo.

    these are those times... i remember times, whe guys were out of knowledge, so if they want to make a guitar, they've made anything with 6 strings. now we have times with perfect starting guitars under 200$, and even guys, that can afford to make experiments with ~200$ to just kick to someone with no loss. that's how perfection and evolution is built. at least these are perfect time for guitarcraft :D
