Can you do it to the neck too

It’s never going to dull. Satin is rougher and doesn’t reflect light directly. Gloss is smoother and does reflect light more directly. What you did was smooth the satin down to a gloss. Left to natural wear and tear, satin will smooth down to be more glossy/shiny on its own. You accelerated the process and made it more uniform. It’s not going to go back to satin. If anything, it’ll smooth out even more.

Interesting. I accidentally smoothed areas of my satin guitar by mistakenly using the wrong cleaning product. Now I have to decide if I should try to rough the smoothed areas back to a satin or polish the whole thing down to a uniform smooth glossy finish. Your results look really good. But I’m still scared. Wish I could just undo my initial mistake. 😕

bla, bla, bla ............

So technically speaking, is it a 2022 Wood Library? Sincerely wondering as the owner of a 2022 Wood Library Modern Eagle V. I'm wondering if mine is a true one of one.

A small amount of time and investment for a huge return. Great tip! So simple too. Have a satin finished FG. It was the only thing I didn’t like about the guitar. Only had it a couple of months and they come out with a fully gloss version for a couple hundred more! Grrrrrr! I’m so pissed. Lol! Thank you ❤

I’m truly impressed. Thank you so much brother ❤

Absolutely gorgeous man! I’ll tell you a guitar I’d love to have would be an original Modern Eagle with one of those incredible denim jean finishes. To me they’re still the most beautiful guitars PRS has made to date.

I'm "late" but wanted to thank you for this. I cannot stand "satin" finishes on guitars and now I have more options!

Exactly the kind of review I was looking for. $59.99 right now at GC!

I gotta say, after having this exact guitar and now having specials, the specials are better. The floyd special on the standard is shite. I would always break strings on it and it would always go outta tune. The frets were definitely not as polished as my specials. The specials seem to just have better qc overall. Also the toggle switch on my specials are stronger? The toggle on my standard was loose feeling and no resistance when switching pickups. I do miss the ziricote look though and the feel of the neck. The neck on the standards is in fact smaller than the specials. The specials has the same profile but it's a tad bit thicker than the standard unfortunately

I loved this system when Bruce came out with it years ago. I actually played through a Mod 50 at NAMM when it was released and was totally onboard. I bought the M4 and a VHT 2-50-2 for power and ran that through a pair of Mesa 212 cabs. I had the Vox, Sl1, B Man, Sl2. I went in another direction and sold all of that stuff off. Fast fwd to now and im back on it! I just bought the Syn 1 and the Z Wreck! Killer stuff… waiting on the Syn 20 IR head.

4:54 use some paper or tissue or teflon to make it fit.

I have a squire strat guitar with a either satin finished or unfinished maple neck and fretboard. Can I just tape off the frets and spray some gloss clear coats, then buff ? over the satin ? or just use polishing compound on the fret board and buff ? Thanx

Great video. I have a Gibson Les Paul Faded which I am thinking of doing the same thing on. I am not sure if the lacquer is thick enough. Slightly worried about rubbing through. What do you think?

I use the headrush as it's the best sounding one out of the ones I've tried.

Hmm does the scarf joint ever brk? Im about to purchase a beautiful Egg Blue S2. Thx

Very nice. Good video 👍🏻

I was just wondering this exact thing. I have an epiphone korina Flying V 2024 inspired by Gibson series. It had a satin finish which I really don’t love. I noticed after playing it for a while the back of the neck turned glossy from playing it so much as if my hand was buffing it out.

Deusenberg les trem 2 classic looking too next step trem for glue in Angle neck guitar . Not like other big block trem . Deusenberg les trem +other trem are amazing. I had two Versions bigsby one on my les paul setit up right Grease up at nut . Stretch the strings it play so well . . This one I had on gretsch and les paul . Deusenberg should make a b3 Cooperating that style set lower if play it Further back . Got good, Break angle to work Deusenberg make great guitar too ant parts

I wonder if a matte guitar will look better after buffing.

Great video, was helpful!!!

Are you using the eris speaker as a Cab for the mini head?

Push downs only is only half a trem ;( These types of "tremolos" should be called "string slackeners" as that would be a more accurate term for them. These types of units have very little travel upwards, but if you're happy with push-downs only, then you may like this. But if you want a proper tremolo/whammy then get a StetsBar.

I'm a heavy tremolo user, and I will share you a secret that works in all kinds of tremolos... always after some abuse, finish the tremolo use with some upward final move. Always finish with an up move, and your tuning stability will improve A LOT. Just try it !!!. I have all my tremolos full floating, and this is my secret to stay always in tune.

My S2 is way better quality than the SE’s I own, and I enjoy my SE’s, but my S2 Custom 24-08 is just 🎯🎯🔥with the USA pickups!!!!

pretty rough video but does a great job of showing how easy it is. as a metal guy that's sick of the satin black guitar trend i appreciated this

I usually pick and change the volume pot with my little finger so I believe this bridge will stay in the way... because it's too high

I bought a PRS ce and have been very happy with it it just feels like higher quality than the S2

NO

Nice video. Satin guitars get shiny spots over time from playing so when that happens I'm gonna try this.

is it safe to do this on a coloured guitar body? i read somewhere that applying wood polish/wax to guitars with a satin finish can make it look blotchy - creating patches of lighter colour all over the body

I believe those are 85/15S pickups in the SE. The G&B makers mark on the back is a giveaway. They made the S pickups in two different places, and one of them manufactures them slightly different. Supposedly the S2's version is slightly better, but I've had them both and dislike them both. They just sound weak and flat. Also, the output test you did at the end, you had the toggle switch in the upward position on the S2, which is the split position. That's why your resistance was halved.

I’m getting a satin SG in two days (saturday 3/8/2024) and hope this works

It also really pulls out the grain, making both the light and dark grain lines richer. My only reservation is that if there is something in the compound that "removes" the original finish. I suppose it doesn't really matter as it is offering a protection to the wood all its own. I have a satin Taylor that I think could look a lot nicer if it was shined up a bit.

Just wondering if you have ever seen a Modern Eagle V with alder body with maple cap around. Super curious how it'd sound like.

Much appreciated. Thanks for taking the time.

Now I don't have this trem, but I would think other things used in conjunction with this tremolo would aid in tuning stability, if a person decides to go this route, which would include a GraphTech nut, or some kind of lube nut or roller nut, and locking tuners...ensuring the strings are pulled and stretched, the tuned up to pitch, then repeating the process: pull/ stretch, retune, until the strings show to be not going out anymore when pulling on them...this would all aid in tuning stability if this device is decided on being used...I think it's a cool option if you don't want to wood route/ mod the guitar, and keep it as "return to original" as possible. Thanks for the video!

Thank you so much!, now im on my way to polish my satin epiphone sg!!

I was surprised by the excellence of your video, which was made with passion and a lot of effort, and while watching the video, I was moved by your sincerity and effort. A video that went through a mysterious algorithm caught my eye and I fell in love with your channel. Thanks to your videos it surrounds me with beautiful and good energy.

I would like to give you my sincere praise and support. There is a wonderful talent full of strange charm who looks at your videos like a dream. The video I wanted to see so much right now was your video. Thank you

No, it's not

Overpriced and over-hyped. Pay more than 1k, for an electric guitar your just a fanboi

Thank you for watching your video, which was created with passion and a lot of effort. Your video of going through a mysterious algorithm caught my eye, and thanks to it, my heart was filled with beautiful and good energy. Your video really touched my heart. It made me emotional. This is a video I want to watch over and over again. I would like to give you my sincere praise and support. You have a wonderful talent full of strange charm that makes your videos look like a dream.

i am 65 having the same troubles, hope the feeling comes back.

I own that exact same guitar. I just do not have a case..

Hey Dude, Congratulations on your find, she is beautiful! It looks like you've had it for about a year now, curious what your thoughts are and how many of the 17 std. tones you use? I've had a wood library on my radar for a few days now but also looking at a library studio and 10 top special. If you had that choice today which would you choose and why. I'm at analysis paralysis lol.

Can using this process on the neck cause problems? Or is it just your personal preference? Also, how well does this hold up over time?

Thank you so much for your video. I've been looking for a solution for my satin finished guitars for a while now. I used UBeaut EEE Ultra Shine on my all mahogany acoustic and the result is fantastic. Applied six coats and hand buffed between coats with a microfiber cloth. Then applied a few coats of UBeaut Polish Restor

Thanks. This is exactly what I was looking for as I don't like a satin guitar finish. I'll be trying UBeaut EEE-ULTRA SHINE

I'm not sure with this particular company is a matter of whether or not it is worth the difference. The quality of the cheap import line from this company Rivals and in a lot of cases exceeds the best as far as quality control goes that most of the other big brands are capable of putting out at their highest level. If you don't have the money But you want the quality the SE is an incredible guitar. After that it really becomes a luxury for those that are fortunate enough to have the money to spend on The US made stuff that PRs produces.
