Thread: New Pit Bull Guitars Wudtone Video

  1. #1
    Dingo Bass, Phil W and I got together yesterday to make our own Wudtone video. I thought I'd post it here before I put it up on the site, in case you regulars spot any errors, omissions, or improvements. We don't want to shoot it again, but if we need to insert some info slides, we can do that.

    Here's the link:

    Really good video!

    I would add two items to the flash card list.

    The first is that it is very important to make sure that after using the steel wool that the body of the guitar is completely free of steel wool debri.
    The second is just a trick i learned when sanding curves and tight spots is to wrap the sandpaper over a flexible eraser.

    I'm not sure if you wanted to mention the glue spills and the filler in terms of preparing the body. I know the factory are addressing these issues.....so these should be minor going forward but obviously may need to be addressed with current stock to get the desired finish?

    For us older farts it is also worth keeping a log (which i do using a whiteboard) so I can remember exactly how many deep coats, base coats, gloss coats I have applied to the body and neck. Also good for future reference!

    Miss Fiona asked the very same question....... :|

    There is always a workaround for glitches, mistakes and other Guitar building gremlins.....

    Thanks for the feedback.

    Yes, we will do a separate neck video... soon.

    I do have some footage of DB talking about paying extra attention to the glue residue, but deleted it to get the video under the 15 minute limit. I'll play with it again and see if I can include that bit.

    Cheers,

    Adam

    Adam, if you put in your phone number into something (i forgot where 8-) ), you can verify it, and have the video limit extended...

    Just watched the video, and it looks completely fine to me, apart from the previously mentioned filler / glue part!

    Cheers,
    Callum
