Fascinating video, thank you for sharing! Your skill with hand tools is very impressive and the guitar is beautiful! I couldn’t believe how well the face cut of the walnut top turned out, in particular, though all the planing and chisel work was amazing. I had a couple of questions from this build that I’m wrangling with for a similar effort… - it looked like you used a flat neck slot (e.g. no angle). Is that the case and if so, did you pre-measure the bridge height to determine the depth of the neck slot? - was the neck profile symmetric (top & bottom to the flat) or asymmetric like the Endurneck (angled slightly from the bottom at the neck pocket to the top close to the head)? - having put in fanned frets, did you prefer them to straight (square) frets? They seem to get mixed reviews… Thanks!

The headless bridges are pretty low, so there wasn't much break angle needed. I just sanded it into the heel. The neck profile is an asymmetric trapezoid, where the bass side rund parallel to the neck and the treble side parallel to the center line. As for the fanned frets, I'm not picky. I like them, but I have nothing against "normal" frets either.

I like the sounds of hand tools being used to make a musical instrument. It is refreshing in contrast with most maker videos that are just the sound of power tools, with a heavy guitar soundtrack. It's being in a traditional craftsman's workshop.

So I’ve been pondering the style of guitar I wanted to build next…I wanted it to be different but still traditional in a lot of ways…and I started landing on something similar to this…you have no idea how cool it was to randomly see this thumbnail show up in my feed!! Yours looks incredible!! I may have to adopt a few details of your design into mine 👀
@rauschguitars
@rauschguitars Ай бұрын
Thanks! The combination of headless, the chunky neck block, and the heavy tailpiece, gives the guitar reverse neck dive - which is more annoying that regular neck dive. Pay attention to the balance if you're going headless.
