before was my dream guitar :(
Love the schect!
I like the "before" too... I would build this kind of finish for myself...
Schecter called me. They want their red pt back
Dan: this guitar is perfect. Also Dan: lemme irreversibly modify it!
I love it! The kill switch is a great mod and the grille accents are amazing looking! Great custom job as usual.
Love the way you take your own ideas and use your great imagination to come up with some really awesome looking guitars. I will be very interested in seeing what comes out of the Great Guitar Build-Off of 2020. Stay safe and healthy out there.
Great video.
Hope you and your family are safe and healthy with RVing in these pandemic times.
These are some of the best build videos on the internet. Enjoy the sunshine.
Dan always blowing minds! I just wished he would try to make an "acoustasonic" style guitar =D
Health and Safety: Always heat strip paint in a well ventilated area.
Dan: * heads to the woods *
Made me laugh
Hi Dan, another great mod, thanks. The up-coming "The Greatest Guitar Building Competition" sounds really exciting and I'm pleased your involved, you deserve a place in the line-up. I was going to say good luck but who needs luck when you have the skill.
Excited to see what you do with your crimson kit. Been following them for a couple years and always amazed by their knowledge
Although I like the og schecter more but if ur happy with it, Rock on brother!🤟
I agree. I've just always loved the Tele Deluxe look 🙂
Just from the thumbnail: you freakin nailed it.
Edit: Looking forward to the competition, I'm excited to see you guys all craft!
This kind of video was exactly what I wished for when you moved you life to the road.
You get to see so many places, places with used gear that could need an awesome GunsAndGuitars Makeover.
So yeah another great video Dan!
Keep it up and keep your family save ^^
That guitar looks much better. Excited about your great guitar build off guitar.
awesome guitar Dan. Good luck for the build off by the way
Daaaang! This looks amazing friend! Love the added grates! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
Really enjoy your channel 👍🏻 thanks for all your great work & the ideas you give me.
Beautiful guitar before and after. I love what you did with it. Awesome job man. 👏🏽
I love how you take modding to the next level. That guitar looks awesome!👍😎🎸🎶
That's fricking bad ass. I love the after look. Great job.
Finally this video is out! So excited!!
I love this build man! Super cool!
The recessed pick guard with metal knockout is so boss. I love the location of the kill switch. Can’t wait to see it finished!
Matt - you do so much with a tiny shop
It’s all skill and imagination
Proud to watch your videos!!
Sick guitar! Your finishes are beautiful
Love that you went through with it. Really did a great job!
This has to be one of the best looking builds you’ve don’t Dan, really love the concept and execution.
Great stuff Dan it is a channel like yours that made me get going with mine just so honest. I point people to yours when they talk about guitar mods. Keep up the great work
Great video, nice rework of the guitar. Schecter makes some nice stuff!
This is the video I've been looking forward to. Refinishing guitars is so oddly satisfying!
Great guitar! Wonderful video,cute helpers,keep it going!
That's a very nice finished product. Sounds and looks great and unique.
Hey Dan! Welcome back buddy, glad to see another one of your awesome videos... As always!
DUDE! You are MUCH more anbitious than I am! Lol, ME, I probably would've gotten a kit?
I liked that finish, but that's me of course. VERY impressive job you did with it though.
Gotta say top notch man! Very inspiring too. I'm about to embark on a Tele build myself,
with some assitance from a friend. But really looking forward to it! And hey Dan, please you &
your family stay safe. And good luck with the search for a mobile home, or home on wheels?
Nicely done man!!! Really awesome!!
Dan that is amazing! That inlay is so cool!
I give you props for doing all this work out of an RV. Good on ya !!
Dan, you are one talented guy. Enjoy your new guitar.
possibly the most beautiful guitar ever. A perfect hint of many ingredients .
Looks good, hope it’s finished soon. Have a grate weekend
imo
Outstanding vid on a piece of work that deserves no less.
Great stuff!
imo
Nice! Love it. I just like the toggle in a different place.
You’re so good at what you do it’s kind of mind boggling sometimes.
Guitar remodel is a such a cool concept! Great video!
Men thats sick i love that Tom morello kill switch style button, all the sounds you can make with that is amazing
That looks awesome! Great job, I get a steampunk vibe from it!
5:57 What I have found works really, really well here is a hammer drill clamped into my moxon vise with a drum sanding bit attached to it, so that the bit stands straight up. That is how I do tight curves on my guitar builds, and it is also how I make my wooden bridge pin pullers (which are for sale on Reverb).
Super amazing job man. You really inspire me to modify my guitar.
Very well done as Always
Dude, I'm so jealous. Wish I had the workshop (and imagination) to come up with that. Looks awesome and sounds great!
Now that's nice n' tarted-up. Excellent work!
Cant wait to see your build off guitar started 🇺🇸👍🏻
Definitely unique . From here looks like excellent work .
The pickguard and the mesh looks really good
Dude.... I didn’t think this was my dream guitar until I seen this..... I need this
This guitar looks sick. I've been wanting to modify my first bass (B.C. Rich Warlock Revenge) for a while but wasn't sure what to do about the binding. Never thought about rounding off the edges like you did here. Keep it up Dan.
Thanks for the great video brother.
After seeing the badass re-design you did for this axe. I can't wait to see what you do for the build off. One thought... The copper tape would have looked awesome as a background to the grate. Especially when the sun hits it just right.
Also I totally said “would ya just look at it” right before you did it was hilarious 😆
Awesome job dude.
Sweet it came out great!
Love your "spindle" sander, man! :)
Great new look of the schehter
Can't wait to see what you can do with the Crimson Guitars kit.
Good helper you’ve got there. I can’t seem to be able to use that type sander. It always jumps around. Super cool guitar!
That is beautiful wood grain indeed!
That's pretty slick dude
That guitar looks sick.
Very beautiful guitar
Okay this is epic AF
You really have this figured out👍🏻 Godbless!
If you ever go big , I would definitely love to work for you
I have the emerald and love it!!
Ooo I need to get in on that crimson guitar kit building
Great idea !
That looks sick
nice one Dan!
Ngl Dan I like both but yours was super creative looking so I like it more
Very nice!
Hey Dan, on the intricate work you might try a scroll saw. It gives you an excuse to make those gingerbread style doll houses for your daughter. For some reason, that grill work you put in reminds me of the basket-weave leather carving done on a nice revolver holster.
I've always hated the tele deluxe style pickguard. You made it look goooood!
augh killswitches are a pet peeve. reverse killswitches are much more intuitive to play and just as easy to wire! put the ends on the output and input of your master vol, turn down the knob when you want to use the switch and it bypasses the volume pot on press.
I'll teach you that when you get a little but better at guitar, buddy lol. Love it
I might have left the back and sides red, but redo that top. Still gorgeous!
Great job Dan,
Not sure if you're aware but Matt at Texas Toast has said that any of you guys in the GGBO that don't have a full workshop are welcome to do your build at his workshop in Denver.
Could be worth checking out.
Take care mate.✌
hurts me to see that nice finish go..
All I can say is wow.
Different but cool good job dude
Personally i would probably use a different colour on the body... but damn. This is so good looking. Well done mate
One of my favourite yet, although a translucent white finish might look a little more stunning, just my personal bias though!
Let me say that every person can do whatever the heck they want with their property, but I've had a LOT of Red Bull today, so... First, the reason Schecter would cover that wood in an opaque finish is because EVERY piece of Alder (and most other woods) is beautiful. By that logic every single guitar needs to have a transparent finish. Then what? No staining? It does change the appearance of the natural wood. "Every guitar must have a tung oil finish and nothing else!" Second, you kept going on about how gorgeous the wood grain was yet covered most of the front with an EVEN LARGER pickguard! All that being said, I actually like the steampunk look of the final product so cheers to you.
Wow! Looks awesome man. Suits ya! I love the candy apple red myself, but I can really respect this. The only change I'd make to mine is trying to chamber it a bit. Wish I had the skills, tools, and time. 😃 Also, I just really HATE sanding. 🤣
I´ve never seen a killswitch on a Tele!, great job
Jonny Greenwood? Joe Trohman? Matt Bellamy?
Franky Gonzaldi Matt Bellamy doesn’t count 😂 John 5 and Joe Trohman
Okay and dahm! You are going to give Ben with Crimson a run for his money. Very very cool mods done.
If you would have made your masterpiece from a cheap standard guitar or diy kit I would give a big thumbs up. But....I was cringing watching that beautiful Schecter being skinned alive!
If that were me, and I had done that to such a pretty guitar, I'd be sick at my stomach and devastated. However, if that's what makes you happy and it's exactly what you wanted then that's great, the mods were great. I keep an extra older pbass that I've refinned a couple times, currently shell pink.
I like how the pickguard and mesh look and I like the electronics mods but I would have stained it some sort of red with a burned wood grain.
Hi Dan, awesome! How much weight relieve did you actually get out of it? Keep up the good work! Love your channel!
Whoa!! First time I've seen you without a hat on. Now I know it's really Joe Rogan I've been watching all this time.😁 Oh, I absolutely love the guitar. Well Done sir.😎
Nice!
could u do a video on how to put a floyd rose on a string through guitar cuz i got a ltd v 200 i wanna put a floyd on but cant find any videos on it and im trying to save as much money as possible
I'm one of those folks who hates seeing a nice guitar modded, however, I really like the look of the final product. I'm conflicted, but it's not like it was a vintage Stratocaster that you did this too. I wouldn't mind that guitar in my guitarsenal one bit!
