I agree with the two replies above. The web site describes the builder's attention to detail, selecting the right metals and wood, the right combination to get the best tone, no hum from the pickup, etc... and the guy on the video is blasting away with an overdriven sound, distortion and probably other effects, masking the true sound of the instrument. I'd like to hear the natural sound of the instrument. We can add the effects later.

This version of "Yesterday" is probably as close to "clean and pretty" as you'll get. I'm sure he has more examples on his YouTube channel.
