I Built a Guitar Out of Ocean Plastic

I team up with 4ocean and attempt building a guitar out of recycled ocean plastic.

If ever one of your guitars needed to be put into full-scale prodution, this is it.

Now if 4 ocean could partner with a large manufacturer for guitars. That's a visually stunning guitar, and the guitar actually sounds really good!

[ashequestionmark]

This is genuinely one of the prettiest guitars I've ever seen, if you ever do decide to sell your creations I think a business making recycled ocean plastic guitars would be sick

[kyleclarke]

That is actually a stunning guitar. It's sad that the first fret-board failed because I really liked it but the second one looks way better anyway, so I guess it was good the first one failed. This needs to be put into full-scale production. Amazing job.

Following the recycling theme, it would be cool to see a guitar made from recycled/discarded vinyl records! Awesome work dude, this is one of the only channels I have notifications turned on for!!!

This is amazing and gut-wrenching in equal measure, and you definitely need to make one of these for Joe Duplantier of Gojira, because if there was ever a guitar that was meant to have “Toxic Garbage Island” played on it, it’s this one.

Ok, this is now next-level stuff. You truly are a good man for trying this. Question: are you taking photos as you go through your processes? You should publish a book detailing all the builds. It's so inspiring...

Wow! I love how the guitar is environmentally friendly and I learned about ocean clean up at the same time. Beautiful work!

I love how you still put in the footage where mistakes were made to show that everyone makes mistakes. Most creators would probably have just scrapped that part of the footage, but you decided to put it out. Honestly it makes the finished project even better

[dennisrossonero]

dude, all the guitars i've seen on your vids look GORGEOUS! And your ability to craft them out of seemingly anything is astounding.

I found your channel a little after I began playing guitar near the Beginning of 2019. I was a senior in high school, and I was going to spend my summer before college building a guitar with my grandfather. You inspired me to pursue becoming a luthier as a hobby. Since then my grandfather and I have spent every summer since the end of high school building instruments. Our very first guitar that we made during the summer of 2019 is still my favorite guitar to this day. I'm currently a Junior in Electrical Engineering, and can't wait to tackle our next guitar this summer. We began working on the neck over Christmas, and I enjoy every moment I spend with my grandfather working on our instruments. We've made several mistakes along the way that we kick ourselves over it but I wouldn't trade those moments for anything in the world. I always love when you upload a new video. Your videos are inspiring and always entertaining. I'll always appreciate everything you put into your work. Much thanks, and I can't wait to see what beautiful instrument you make next.

This guitar popped up on my Instagram feed and I instantly liked it. Love it, love it, love it!!!

[xneurianx]

I absolutely LOVE this. I really want to see more manufacturers embracing stuff like this. Sustainable guitar building is super interesting to me.

I REALLY want to see a bamboo build at some point. There are a few bamboo guitars out there, and a guy made a guitar as a school project or something and put the build on YouTube as well, which was cool.

[Allison_Leigh]

It turned out SO GOOD. You and 4ocean should team up and figure out how to get these into production for limited sale at the very least. Super cool.

I love how the neck is like an optical illusion how the straws at an angle make the frets look angled and straws straight. Awesome build!

man and that demo at the end. Beautiful melody. I think about sitting on the beach watching the sunset with that song.

[Pyxe_ZA]

I've binge watched a lot of your videos today, and I'm even more astonished by each design. Just when you think it can't get any better 🤯

[Pranaynaynay]

It's really cool to see this project and that you've got so many more tools in your workshop than when you started

[silv_sun]

It's really cool that you include the errors and problems you encounter in making these
Quality content man!

[ibrahimalshmrani]

If you could make the demo a little bit longer, or make an album of all your demos that would be awesome 👍
