Thank you Ray and I'm glad you like it! It's full of great songs, and this is just a fraction of the repertoire! And of course, in addition to the good atmosphere, delicious beers are also a good idea!😅

@viktorlieszkovszky9683 PEEVO!!👍 🍺 🍻😋

Thank you very much!

Thank you Ray! Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! Viktor from Alps

Thank you very much !

Thanks Daniel for the comment, Yes you are right! The owner asked for 6 strings because they are not only playing Rolling Stones songs, but also a massive 4 hour concert with about 10 artists. So the guitar has to meet other criteria too!

Thank you Andrew for the useful info, I didn't know that and I didn't know this brand! I think the construction itself is good, the owner has been using it for years and is satisfied with it. And thank you also for watching my videos and the useful comment!

Unfortunately, for some reason I'm only seeing the comment now, sorry! Yes, there are quite a few bars and restaurants along the main road, but not next to each other! Between the hospital and Tesco, there's a favorite of mine, the NADAO PUB. Great permanent band, large concert hall, cold drinks, good food and everything you need! It can be seen in another of my videos!

Thanks Gary! Yes, many people like this neck radius. I've seen similar ones on PRS and ESP-LTD guitars, I think they work under a Gibson License. Unfortunately, this was the owner's request, so instead of the guitar gathering dust at home, this great guitar is back on stage and in the studio!

Thanks Ray! Yes, Angus Young didn't have much to choose from when they started the band, but maybe they still had the thin-necked Gibsons back then. Now they make guitars specifically for him.

Thank you very much!

Thanks Ray! The owner was really very happy! Because he earn him family's monthly income with this instrument! He almost didn't recognize it, he said it was a new guitar shaped for his hands and style!

@viktorlieszkovszky9683 A Telecaster is very uncomfortable to play. I have many physical ailments so I totally understand! I'm happy for him. 👍🏻

Hi Ray Master! Thank you very much for you watching all my videos and writing positive comments! I am very grateful for it and it also motivates me to keep doing it! Thanks!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Thanks Victor! 👍

Hi! Thanks for watching my videos and commenting! Yes, it's much easier to make! Unfortunately, I don't speak English well, but I said in the video that unfortunately I have now closed my rented workshop where I could do these loud operations, I am now doing this in the living room of my apartment. Since I live in a condominium and have 4 neighbors, I thought I would show you how to do this without machines! Of course, the most accurate way is to cut it with a CNC machine in 5 minutes! Also, I personally like the Japanese handwork line very much and I try to make every task in this way!

Hi! Thanks for watching my videos and commenting! Of course you are right, but in this case the neck pickup is 15 Ohm and the bridge pickup is 20 Ohm. If after I finish my work and the owner tries it and is not satisfied with the sound, it is likely that the pickup will be replaced, which I will not do. So that there is never a problem, that's why I'm makeing it now!

Hi Ray, my friend! Well, first I sharpen it with at least P260 sandpaper, then grind it on a whetstone! I like to use water-based paints, but also the natural materials that surround us in the kitchen! Ex: Turmeric yellow, coffee, etc. I will present them in another video! Yes, you should always pay attention to the fact that water-based paints will be 3 times lighter after drying.The time and labor to repair the instrument never increases proportionately with the amount, so it always remains a semi-hobby. That's why a master instrument made by hand, be it a guitar or a violin or any other instrument, costs thousands of dollars or euros, while a cheap wood CNC-cut and stringed costs a few hundreds! Greetings my friend from the Alps

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Victor I can NEVER sharpen my chisels or knives properly. When I see yours cut wood like warm butter...I'm Amazed and impressed! Turmeric I injest regularly...however 🤔 as a stain! 👏 Wow! If you were close I would have you make my Telecaster SO much more comfortable to play and sound GREAT! I love watching you work. You never stop amazing me! Thank you...Very much! USA...Ray 👍🏻

If my scale is correct, it was about 5-5.2 kg.

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 that is heavy!

Thanks Ray, I hope you like it when it's done! It's a bit unusual for me to work on a telecaster, but it's really true that it's too difficult for a street musician to use it all day!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Viktor Yes remember when you built a Butterscotch Keith Richard's Tellicaster a few years ago? That 🤔 I think was easy compared to this. Good luck! 👍 Waiting patiently for the next video. Thanks Ray

Hi! It is a completely simple L-iron that is galvanized. You can buy it at any home DIY or equipment store, I bought it at Obi, about 1.5 euros. Thanks for watching my videos and asking questions!

Hi Ray Master! Well, the BumbleBee's is a capacitor, an oil paper solution from the 50's and 60's, which is still used today. Of course, the newer technique is the ceramic capacitor, orange drops, which is also good, but I like the old sound better! As a matter of fact, the short sinusoidal signals created by the string resonance in the pickup propagate in the form of a weak current, which can be AC ​​or DC. This is stored and passed on by the capacitor so that it is always passed on in an equal amount. It balances the measure. Thank you very much!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Xcellant! I like old too Victor! Better sound. Thank you!👍🏻

Hi My Friend Mr.Ray! Thank you very much for the kind words, I'm trying to do everything to the best of my ability, but I still have a lot to learn! But I think you're a better guitarist than I am a mechanic! I make not boxing but it's similar, I did Thai boxing from my teenage years until I was about 30 years old. I loved her very much and later she became my Thai wife. You can also see my travels in Thailand in previous videos! Best Regards my Friend!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 I appreciate you kind words as well. I bet you are a better guitar player than I. You are just humble. Me I just have fun. I asked about boxing because it was the only sport I ever watched. I also was ringside for huge big boxing events at Foxwoods Casinoand and Mohegan Sun in Connecticut. I went to many mixed martial arts as well. I will watch some videos from your wife. 🥊🥊 Take care Viktor 👍

Thank you very much Ray!

Thank you Ray!

Yes, and the Standard Corvette bass guitars were not even equipped with 2 P90s, only 2 single coils. So it is possible that this is a Custom guitar made to order! Unfortunately, the owner does not know its exact origin!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Now it's a Original Viktor L. reissue in perfect condition! 😉👍👏 Thanks so much! Take care!👍

Thank you my friend Ray! I always like your kind words and it's also good that you always watch my videos! I still have to experience a lot in the field of guitars, because a lot of things are not written in the big book about how to fix them. I have to improvisation often! Greetings from the Alps!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 You ALWAYS get the job done...and Better than ones I paid to do work! Enjoy summer! 👍🏻😉

Thank you very much!

Hi Ray! What a story, we could certainly have a good time talking and telling stories together! I think I know which guitar you're talking about, I knew it was like a Silverstone? I had an amplifier for them!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 100% Correct! Yes Silverstone! I should have known you would know! Stories...I have a million! Das 😎 all! 👍🏻😉

Danke Hazim! Der zweite Teil des Videos kommt bald, vergessen Sie nicht, ihn auch anzuschauen! Das ist eine supercoole Gitarre! Bei Ihrem nächsten Gitarrensaitenwechsel erhalten Sie auch eine gute Hals- und Tremolo-Anpassung!

Hi Ray! Thank you again for your kind words! Yes, this tremolo is a very high quality and precise type. But this also only provides the same memory that Leo Fender created in the early fifties! Here, too, you can see what a genius he was in the field of guitar production! Regarding the vise tuning key, I used to wind the string on it at least 3 times to get the angle of 3-5 degrees so that the other vibration of the string does not give a glass sound! Luckily more and more people are watching my videos and thus my customers are increasing, but still it will remain just a hobby for a long time. Viktor from the high Alps

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 My instincs tell me you are a electrical engineer or high tech field?🤔 Your knowledge is not that of a typical hobbyist. No matter you are very impressive to watch. Best wishes. 😎👍

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Viktor Sorry to bother you. I have been thinking 🤔 about your comment. So with my locking tuners I should as of old leave slack and wind around the post a few times as you did in your video? This would make my string sound better? Thanks Viktor. 👍

@@RollingStoneZzzzz Only if there is no meeting point of at least 3-5 degrees from the tuner keys to the 0th fret. Since Telecasters and Stratocasters have parallel heads, the gibson head is not a parallel system to the fretboard. The bending of at least 15 degrees.

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 👍😎

Dr Ray! Thank you for your kind words Ray! I'm glad you like it!😊

Thank you very much Ray for the many comments and likes for always watching my videos!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Your growing! 👍🏻😉

Thanks Ray for watching my video again and I'm glad you like what I do! The Gibson owner is also very grateful! He will bring me the guitar back to the big repair in July. I hope to see this guitar in concert soon! I think the Stainless Steel frets produce a very nice sound, but it's true that it's very difficult for me to work with them. A thorough sanding is enough for this guitar, as the height of the frets is 1.30 and 1.45 millimeters. The second part is coming soon!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 I'm rough on frets. stainless steel last longer I'm told. 🤔 Waiting for follow-up video! 👍🏻👏👏 Thank you!

Thank you Ray!

Thank you Ray!

Yes, plastic should remain for LEGO toys😁. Thank Ray!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 😆 🤣 😂

Hi Ray! It's always nice to hear a lot of words of praise for my work! You really don't need that humbucker, a large membrane microphone is definitely better at a concert. If so, then a piezo pickup would be a better choice than violins!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 My daughter in law is a concert violinist. We just went to a symphony orchestra show last week. So acoustics are important. Resonator... 🤔 "Definitely" no pick up! Keep the videos coming Viktor! Thanks 👍🏻😉👏

Every steps of yours mirror what *I* usually do. Since I just ordered the very same guitar (a B-stock) from Thomann, I'll let you know when it arrives. You"re right about strings: heavy gauge electric strings are the right choice. Go on, brother!

Well, I don't see the point either, because it seems easier to tune down and up during the song with the tuning key!🤔And if I use one of the drop tunings, I have it on another guitar!😁Anyway, I do what they ask me to do!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Absolutely 💯! The customer is always right! I love drop tunings as well. Neil Young's Cinimon Girl is in Drop D. Love your work Viktor. Have a great summer. Das 😎all! 👍

Hi, thank you very much Ray! Yes, winter time here in the Alps not so much job. I had to do other work and for the most part I only had setup work that the client waited for and they did not ask for a video! Yeah, I saw that Ed Sullivan show, it's awesome.Until then, all the best! Viktor in Alps😊

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 Viktor the Alps are so beautiful. Went to Zurich in 1999. I too am doing labor to make ends meet. Stinks to have to work when I should be retired! Take Care! 👍

First of all, thank you for watching my videos and for asking! At 0:54 you can see what string I used! For acoustic guitars, "Martin Guitars" Bronze or Phosphor bronze 10-strings work very well for me! It's very warm, but at the same time it has that metallic sound, low, middle and high notes! Even after 3 months, the tinkling sound of the bronze is still there! I'll put the link here! www.thomann.de/at/martin_guitars_m170_the_originals.htm

Thank you For some reason I didn't see the packet of strings

Thanks Ray! Now there is quite a lot of "immediate" repair work where I can't make a video. But I'll try to make a new video soon!

@@viktorlieszkovszky9683 No pressure Viktor. I love your work. I lean alot from you! Thanks! Ray👍😎
