Part 1 of 3.

Watch all three parts if you're interested in this type of thing. It's a really nice build.

I watched all three parts. I was amazed at his craftsmanship and patience. Then I saw in part 3 that he made his own pickups. That put it over the top. It's not exactly what I would ask for if I could order anything, but it's certainly one of a kind. The fourth video where they give it a proper audition, should be added to part 3, as it kind of justifies the effort. I wonder how much it weighs?

Watched all three as well. If he could play as proficiently as he builds, he would be amazing. On second thought, perhaps his fingers were worn out from all that work.
