Thanks for joining me for more guitar restoration videos! In this video we'll try to make a 1997 Gibson Dove a little less mangled.

Great work! That's my guitar. It is a good one and glad to have it back.
It sure is!
I a/b it with my J-185 with the same anthem pickup and I think there's something wrong with the pickup and they were good to send me a new one and switch it out! I will let you know how that goes. Great work and will be sending more your way in the future! Glad to know you!@@harpethguitar
I guess that hole in the side could serve as a sound port of sorts. Hard to believe the stuff that happens to guitars. At least you are there to clean up the mess. Another good job.
Hi Scotty, thank you for this interesting video. You really are an incredible luthier and I like learning from your skill ! See you soon...
My pleasure!
Nice work, truly a master. Russ from Sask. Canada. Cheers
Thank you very much!
Great job! Love video. I learn much from watching your craftsmanship!
Glad to hear it!
Pretty cool how-to tips, and even some never-do-this simultaneously. I THINK that equals win-win. Therefore, I uh nevermind.
These videos are like therapy to watch, so relaxing ☺️
Home run! I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again, Scott, you are a master craftsman when it come to these finish repairs. You’re like a mad scientist with all your drop-a-this and squirt-a-that concoctions, and your final results are as near perfect as a finish repair could possibly be. Really impressive; great job! Thanks for the video and have a happy new year!
Happy New Year!
Thanks 😊
If dipping my reamer in mineral spirits makes me cool and sharp, then imma go do it.
Thank you for the Video! I enjoy your work! Finish work always tortures me. We get to see the Del Vecchio on the wall?
I'm working on it!
why not use the side hole as a side sound port just tidy it up ??
Make the hole into a sound port. It’ll look like it’s supposed to be there.
I thought the same thing. There is a lot of sound coming out of there
Incredible how some people thrash their instruments just because. There doesn’t seem to be an innate need to do that as the guitar is not a combat weapon or a tool for hard labor but I am guessing the “patina” fad might have something to do with that.
What is the plan for the preamp hole?
We slapped a rectangle piece of red tortoise pickguard material over it and called it a day!
Hi mister St Dentist - is that a genuine Gibson? Or a Sears gibson?
🤣
I thought the same thing... that's GOTTA be a Chibson. The fret markers looked all funky. Maybe just camera angles, but that seemed a little off. 😅
The finish checking would point to a true Gibson. Chibson in my experience rarely have a nitro finish like that.
@@Furtheronmusic That's a good point!
On that hole in the side, it would definitely not look right, but he could bend a piece of woog the right size to fit over the hole, maybe paint it black, and then mount a preamp on the patch. Would it look right? Absolutely not. Would it look better than that hole? Yes. How do I know? I did a cheap Ibanez with a large hole like that and mine turned out just OK. Not great.
