How much increase in action can I expect after the initial setup when adding the strings (HT) and allowing a couple of weeks to set (building a blanca). I'm exactly at this stage ready to glue the fretboard and preparing it for the setup. My neck angle is shallower than yours (1mm fret 0). Do you use the same 3.5 and 2.5 spacers or should they be thicker since the angle is shallower to get the same action? Thanks

Thanks Pablo, how much extra depth do you normally add to the fret slots in relation to the tang size when you cut them to avoid as much a possible having to re-cut the slots after you plane the board like you do here, Is 1mm adequate?

I had just thrown out an old lamp today... You bet i rushed outside and got it out the bin... Thank you!

Me gustaria saber como sus abuelos trabajaban sin estos productos modernos. Muchas gracias: tengo un proyecto con una guitarra vieja. Cada hombre respecta alguien que conoce su trabajo. Tambien quiero decir que Ud. habla un ingles excelente.

Mr Requena, Thank you for a very informative series. I have used this series a few times now as a refresher. They are a wonderful resource to the group of amateur builders.

These are the best videos on carving a neck that I’ve seen. I have made 6 necks, 3 classical and 3 Maccaferri style jazz guitars, but am always looking for better ways of doing things. Gracias Pablo!

Hi Pablo. This is a very nice rosette and I would like to build it. Do you accept payments for customized subsets of your larger body of coursework? Meaning, I need the dimensions, pixel layout, and brief instructions for building this rosette. I say brief instructions because I watched all of your free videos that explain the aspects of advanced rosette work. Thank you!

Thank you Mastero Requena. I was trained by a European Master Luthier when I was in my early twenties. Now, at 68, I continue to learn from the best of the best.

Pablo, is that tube made out of steel or aluminum? Thank you.

Thank you so much for this wonderful series of videos ❤

Sounds and looks great, Hope to build one like that one day.

best lesson

Thanks!

Excellent video. Thank you for sharing your knowledge.

Gracias Pablo por tu laboriosa tarea de mostrar el procedimiento de rosetas, para un aprendiz autónomo, tu canal es oro del bueno!. Sin dudas sos un gran luthier.

Me consta que es un gran profesional, se le agradece que dedique su tiempo a compartir sus conocimientos (siendo español, estando en España etc, etc), a todos aquellos que hablen ingles. Al menos podría tener el detalle de permitir subtitulos. Pero es normal así somos lis españoles. Qué pena

Thanks for video! Wish it come several months earlier when I tried to bend padauk bindings with quite a lot of runout grains for ukulele))) I used aluminium tape instead of sacrificial strip of wood, but was ready to glue some linen, as Ken Parker does for neck. Also, it's really hard to find non-LED lamp (incandescent lamp bulb?) nowadays - I think there's some limitation at EU for them already and standard DIY-shops or supermarkets doesn't have one... I was forced to go back to raw-iron pipes and gas-torch. But it was really pleasure to bent wood with heat from actual fire!

Thank you!!! GooD)))))))

Thank you for sharing your know-how 👍❤

Superb craftsmanship Pablo, thank you+++++

Hi Pablo. Many thanks for your amazing series. Your attention to detail is wonderful. Question: have you experimented with CA glue for the pore-fill? Using a product like Glueboost Fill & Finish Pro with their Gluedry Accellerator could vastly shorten the time required to wait for the material to dry, and it claims to be crystal clear. What would be the cons?

Algo desafinada no? se trata de las cuerdas muy nuevas y no la espera?

Thanks for the video Pablo ... I learned something new. You presented a lot of good information, however, I think you should include more visual information to reinforce the information you present.

When you made the templates for the heel shape, did you use a contour gauge to transfer the shapes from a finished master guitar? Gracias mi amigo mejor!

Hello Pablo from Alabama USA. Thank you so much for the 12 hole conversion trick. I had a guitar that really needed converting due to a bad neck angle. I found a 12 inch long 1/16 inch drill bit and got it in one day. I made the jig as you suggested. I had the job completed with great success in less than 30 minutes. Wonderful idea. Thank you so much. Ernest Pattillo

Hey Pablo, I’m about 7 sessions in using your method, it is wonderful, I am average 2 applications per session. I have not added the oil yet. How many more shellac (2 lb cut) only applications before using oil? Thank you

Loving these videos, thank you for your knowledge and sharing, it is huge.

I was wondering if measuring the bending strength (simple three point) could tell me if the bars have a lot of runouts?

I think several luthiers have used harmonic bars with the grain running horizontally instead of perpendicular.

Runout is an important issue that is often overlooked. The same issue appears in the soundboard thanks to all mayor suppliers who refuse to split their quarters before sawing the soundboards.

Thank you for the clarifying this, great video again 😊

thanks Pablo!

Hi Pablo, Thanks a lot for your great videos ! However, I don't understand the measurement. I have made a simulation on a 3D software. When I take a 25 feet radius (7620 mm), the depth for the diameter of 530 mm is 9,227 mm. To have 6 mm depth you should have a radius dish with a diameter of 430 mm or a 11,7 m radius. Are you Ok with these ?

Awesome info!

Muchas gracias, Pablo. A mí, como aficionado, me enriquecen muchísimo tus conocimientos de experto que, entre paréntesis, no es fácil que alguien los comparta. Saludos desde México.

gracias Pablo! siempre aprendiendo contigo, saludos.

Thank you, Pablo for this detailed information about “run out”. this is something I have heard about but didn’t know how to find it in the brace pieces for my guitars. We can always make our building better, you have just helped us to do that.

Excellent video Pablo. This validates what I learned while building my latest guitar, having paid much more attention to splitting and selecting brace wood than previously done. Thank you!

Very helpful as always. Thank you Pablo!

Hola Pablo, como estas? Se que es un video viejo pero igual no pierdo nada con intentar preguntarte: existe alguna otra alternativa a la piedra pomez? En mi pais consigo la piedra pero no en forma de polvo, por lo que queria saber si se puede probar con otra cosa. Muchas gracias y excelente el video!

Many thanks,very informative

Kudos to the photographer. Not a sound and patient. And good angles.

Is the connection between the back strip and the back purfling/binding the same process? Will there be a future video to show how that is done?

Good explanation, Good luck.

I'm watching this series of videos for the third time to see the details. The spectacular work, your diatics and generosity are fantastic. I'm sorry for living far away and not speaking English very well because I'm Brazilian. But it would be great if one day you could come here to Brazil to teach a course. I've been building guitars for several years but I always learn something new from your videos. Thank you very much.

the guitar is resting on the tuners !!!

👏
