- I made this Precision Bass, but it was really difficult. It's a miracle I completed the project; it came back from the dead! Improve your English with Cambly.

I have one more question for you. As you can see, I have accumulated a lot of experience in DIY guitar painting in a limited environment in my small garage and without any special equipment. I make mistakes, which I fix, and I test things… SO, my question: Would you be interested in a beginner's course on guitar painting? As I’m trying to make a living with RUclips and guitar building, and I see this as a good opportunity for me, and for you, a way to get a really detailed lesson about painting when you don’t have a lot of equipment and to skip a lot of that trial and error learning curve. But before doing that, would this be something that interests you? And if so, feel free to let me know how much you would be willing to pay approximately... Or tell me if it's a bad idea haha
Pourquoi pas ! Et quel vendeur eBay as-tu utilisé pour le pickguard? Merci pour ta vidéo !
Definitely. I have painted 5 guitars so far and feel I still have stuff to learn.
I would absolutely follow it. I've been wanting to start refinishing guitars for a while now please do it!
If you are using cans to spray, you can warm them in some hot water in between shaking them up at the begining. This will help to loosen the paint and increase the pressure which should give you a better/finer mist. All of this should give a better/smoother overall finish I think. Worth the experiment for you maybe.

Thanks mate for this awesome work. The bass sounds really great and I almost play it everyday!
The mistakes are part of the job, the result is really nice in the end. I hope you’ll have other orders in the future you deserve it!
Thanks buddy!
it's beautiful!!!!! you need to be a full bass maker!!!!!!!!!
An element you might consider adding in any future P-bass type builds is to include the brass isolation plate underneath the pickup in the pickup cavity. I've included them on both of my P-bass builds and it helps with shielding from excessive noise with higher output passive bass pickups like the Duncan Quarter Pounder and also with active P-Bass pickups like EMG.
The finish looked like a mirror. Outstanding work!
RUclips is weird. After building 2 electric guitars for my son, this week I finished my first build on demand for a fellow musician... An electric bass. 5-string Rickenbacker necktrough.
Had it play tested by another bass player during rehearsel yesterday....
Today, youtube puts this vid in my feed ...
Nice work sir!
Wow! I can't believe how severely underrated this video (and pretty much your entire channel) is! Keep up the great work, I can't wait to see what you create next :)
You do quality work and you really care. KnowIng that a quality luthier was making my bass guitar, I would not hesitate to say, take your time. No need to rush. It would be worth it to me and less stressful for you. If my birthday was coming up quickly, I would still wait.
Once again, you've done a really good job. Still interesting to see your videos and what you went through to go to this result. And once again, thanks for the beautiful guitar which sounds great to ;)
Thank you. Your work is incredible.
What a journey, the result is really beautiful. Be proud of your learning and how you overcome your mistakes. Now I want an Archimbaud bass too!
you are a good advertisement for cambly- your english is very understandable. Really enjoyed the video- jeep up the good work.
Beautiful Job. If something can go wrong while painting it usually does. Great video
Awesome build, I wish that I knew more about this a year ago, when I built project rosegold.
what a beautiful bass! The gloss coat looks great
Your clear will adhere better if you do a light, quick sanding as a final step prior to starting the clear, unless it’s a flake. Then it’s just “hope for the best”😂
👍🏻
(I learned that doing a Jazz bass with gold flake base, topped with purple candy)
Super projet.
Je découvre tout juste ta chaîne et cette vidéo est géniale.
One of the best guitar making videos I've ever seen. As a guitar maker myself - Leeder Guitars, part of the fun is getting over mistakes, but I personally would NEVER use a battery screwdriver in the final assembly as one slip,,,, and its game over.
All the best for future projects. And well done.
encore du bon taff !!
Nice work.
Beau travail ! On fait tous des erreurs quand on apprend quelque chose, l'avantage c'est qu'on en tire toujours de belles leçons ;-)
Pour ma part c'est aussi grâce à tes vidéos que je me suis fabriqué ma propre Explorer cette année, tes vidéos sur la peinture m'ont grandement aidé !
Ma plus grosse bourde sur ce projet à été de vouloir refretter moi même le manche avec des frettes inox sans jamais avoir refretter de ma vie, autant de dire que j'ai bien salopé le job hahaha.
Pour autant la guitare est jouable et sonne curieusement bien ;-)
Je suis surpris de voir que tu n'habites qu'à 2h de route de chez moi haha, qui sais si un jour tu ouvres ton atelier je passerai volontiers te voir 🙂
Super ! Trop content de savoir que ça a pu t'aider :)
If possible, all of your flat surfaces should be block sanded in an overlapping X pattern. It immediately shows all the highs and lows and gives you a perfect reference for how much material you have left to sand as you go.
‘GuitArchi’😂
Nice bass!
What epoxy are you using to fill the wood? :) Great video btw :)
I love your guitars
What about Frenchy Guitars? Or maybe Frencher, in Fender script.
Pickguard.... 👍
Archi guitars is a cool name (I am bias as its my name lol) but Archimbaud Guitars is a great name
Bonjour, petite question, pourquoi y'a t'il des stickers noirs ressemblant à des dominos sur le bois pré-découpe ?
Au Québec, on a un magasin de musique qui s'appelle "Archambault". Archibault n'est pas trop difficille à prononcer pour les anglophones comme moi - at worst it sounds like Archie-bow for some people. "Archie" is too "simplified" in my opinon. Keep the name!
epoxy? hmmmm
Sure Leo Fender made half of those mistakes. Maybe even more. So kinda decent on your part. Keep working on your skills. You might turn into one of best builders in France.
Drilling that wire hole sucks. So easy to mess it up.
Yep, ahah
Archimbaud Guitars pourrait être maladroit : le plus grand ( et pas le meilleur… ) magasin d’instruments de Montréal s’appelle « Archambault ». Juste pour dire.
I'd avoid using Arch in your company name, as it might come across as indicating that you make archtop guitars.
I waaaaaaantu uhhh ruume weeeth a fuuune.
If you show you messing up, you do not need to tell us to the camera that you messed up. We know that you messed up. Trust the audience.
NEVER be ashamed of mistakes!
How will we all learn if we don't make mistakes?
Answer: We won't learn!
Great job "The French Guitar Guy".
Youv'e earned a sub 👍
Respect 👊 From the UK
EDIT: I didn't read the subtitles, your English is great, my brother.
Thanks a lot, really appreciate!
