for those who are curious, i checked the serial number and this guitar is from 95. Great video!
Yup, made in Nashville 10 January 1995, production number 502.
Now I don't feel so bad for them doing this to it 🤔
Oh quite more recent than I thought, looking at the tailpiece.
...I thought that guitar would be much much older than as mentioned...
Thanks, I was thinking it was older than that. I know Gibson did some funky stuff with their serial numbers in the 1960s and 70s making some of their guitars difficult to date.
Was hard to see that beautiful red wood get painted over, but am glad a new life was given to this instrument.
Quando ele deixou somente na madeira,ficou linda...quando passou o prime ,ficou muito melhor....a pintura ficou boa demais,mas prefiro madeira
Yeah the colour is shit
You fucked up the SG with the paintjob!
definitely woulld have done a wood stain.
I was so excited to see that clear coat go on the natural wood and then he brought out the spray paint can… so disappointing
You did an amazing job with that, though I think the wood was attractive enough to use a clear lacquer instead of a paint. It would have been really beautiful to be able to see the grain of the wood. Well done!
I thought the same but those filler plugs might have been a problem
I have used bamboo skewers for the same task. It ruins the grain pattern.
I prefer the original color , but, you did an excellent job with your project completion overall. Please continue to put up more of your work for those of us who are in the learning process. Also I like the way that you do not need to speak in your videos and simply show the before and after of your projects and the steps taken to achieve the quality that you display.
Original as in what the guitar originally came as, or from the video? I say this because it's not the original finish and honestly, it looks like crap.
Agreed. I would have like to see it get grain fill and a gloss clear coat but not bad.
I’d like to see u do better@@Masterfighterx
@@ou8126he’s talking about the doodoo brown that it started with. It was a cherry finish, but someone painted it over with what looked like oil house paint. You could see the brush strokes and all. Calm your tits
I was hoping for a clear coat or tru/tung oil finish, but I'm a sucker for wood grain. As it was it came out really well!
I would have NOT painted over the beautiful wood grain and left it natural wood with a satin gloss. However what you did is also beautiful. It took a lot of patience to do all that. Thank you for sharing.
zupełnie zgadzam się z twoja opinią wystarczyło pomalować bezbarwnym lakierem a nie malować jak płot to jest profanacja tak pięknego drewna trzeba mieć smak pozdrawiam
ぞんざいな扱いで傷んだギターを丁寧に修復されるところをいつも見せていただいております。素晴らしいですね。
見応え十分な素敵な動画でした✨
This is incredible, your channel deserves so much praise! 🎸
That guitar was beautiful with the peeling paint too.
SG 's don't look as good as a strat when heavily worn , but I prefer a new looking SG anyday !
Why? What is attractive about a guitar that looks like trash? Makes no sense to me.
@@okbouncer24 A worn guitar is often a guitar that’s been played a lot. Ask Willie Nelson and his guitar, Trigger.
@@geraldhills41 I would have just lightly sanded it, especially where the paint was peeling, and then put a matte sealer on it. The electronics would all be replaced, of course, but I like the road-worn look when it’s real.
@@benkenon I get that. However, he is the one who wore it out. It's his story that guitar tells. Nobody else's. Makes no sense for anybody else to play it because of that. I don't understand custom shop guitars as well. Why take a perfectly new guitar and beat it up and make it look old just because you want it to look like Willie Nelson's guitar? Why not buy a new one and create your own story. Just because a guitar has been beaten up and not taken care of does not mean you should leave it that way. Restore it and give it a new life and let someone create a new story on top of the story that already exist? That's just me. I would never want to play an ugly instrument.
You really did give this guitar a fresh new look! You did a fantastic job.
Nice thorough restauration! good job cleaning the metal bits
That tailpiece is a "Bowen Handle" from the '80's, minus it's handle and spring. It fits on the original stop bar posts without any modifications to the guitar.
This is the info I was looking for in the comments. Nice looking bridge, I haven't seen one before, or noticed anyway, and I'm pretty long in the tooth lol. I learned something today, thanks.
The original one for me was the perfect guitar with a lot of stories to tell!
I agree. Awesome guitar as original.
The Best part was hearing your playing, you have a very distinct guitar style, very progressive and heavy.
typical jap style.. clever, but no feeling... like a computer game...
To hear the guitar after you're finished is what I wait for. You've got a good thing going here. Cheers
Would have been cool too if it got sanded down to remove the flaking walnut finish and then coated with new lacquer. Giving it a true vintage look. However the refinish was amazing! Keep it up.
I wish they had at least done this with the beautiful back of the guitar, which looked beautiful and was fairly pristine. Yet they could have still had the color up front, if they wanted.
Beautiful work. SG's are my favourite guitars, so this was very enjoyable to watch!
いつもながら、素晴らしい復活劇を見せられました‼️そのお手並みの見事なことに今回は色彩の素晴らしさに魅了されました❤ギター愛を感じますね❣️🌏ありがとうございました❣️🌏
本当に凄い！
I bought a Korina Ibanez Flying V in the 80’s and had it restored a few years ago. What a great sounding guitar. Wish I did it sooner. I love watching this stuff.
For some reason and speaking strictly as a guitar-maker and repairman for years I have seen countless butcherized SG's on my workbench with many of these being in worse shape than this one...
For some reason Les Pauls, 335's, Flying V's, Explorers, Firebirds, etc... are rarely messed with but it's okay to mess up with SG's... Maybe it's because they're more affordable and less luxurious than Les Pauls so it's no big deal 😄😄
Anyway, I'm glad to see that nice SG restored and back in all of its glory...
I was especially impressed with your work with the serial number...
Great work as always 👍👍
Amazing transformation! Love that guitar!
せっかくの天然レリックを綺麗にしちゃうなんて。。。

レリックが嫌なのでは？

Beautiful guitar 🎸
Thank you for your hard work. That guitar deserved to be brought back to as it should be.
I just love it, what a fantastic work you did ! Bring legends to us back from the past !
Great result!
SGの修正、、とても見応えがありました！！
お疲れ様でした！
watching the test run at 2x play speed is a trip! great restoration
この色素敵です👍
仕上がりがめっちゃ綺麗
めちゃくちゃカッコいい感じに仕上がっていてビックリです🌟
Great demo at the end great playing
Oh man , that whole process was beautiful 🔥🔥🔥
So many people are gonna be mad you refinished this but I think you just made it last for another 50+ years!
I wouldn't have been able to paint that mahogany. I would have left it natural or cherry and put on a bigsby to cover a bunch of the holes. Nice work though.
Eh, it was made in 1995 going by the serial number. Not particularly valuable, so a good guitar to refinish.
@@jessebusenそのとおりだね。カッコいいギターになって羨ましい
Made in 1995??!! What, did they store it in a shed with no case the entire time??? 😂
I agree. That grain is beautiful; cherry or maybe a thin color. @@mrbuttons1243
Beautiful! Great Job!!
Excellent work!
You did a lot of work! Nice job!
Looks great. Awesome job
this is great I feel like im learning a lot and this is just fun to watch in general, love the color choice very unique
Excellent work and so satisfying to watch❤
Wow! That came out great!
Amazing work!
Good on ya u did well with this project hard work always pays off
As usual, that was a totally new and different instrument once you got through with it, and it looks and sounds amazing. That new color is beautiful! Well done, sir.
Pelham blue is the color. Great turnaround.
@@mitchmurrell753Yeah but it's like the color of aged/oxidized Pelham blue...great turnaround for sure.
Not new at all. Same guitar just restored.
Looks good man!
Beautiful color choice for an SG
あなたのビデオが本当に好きです。ギターはとてもうまくいきました。輝きを取り戻しました。色のコントラストが少しだけですが、その他はすべて素晴らしかったです。メキシコからこんにちは 🇲🇽🇲🇽
Very meticulous detail good job
Beautiful work
amazing job!
I'm totally fascinated and impressed by how someone can have so much craftsmanship and technical understanding. big compliment !
You don't make sense. How can you evaluate craftsmanship and technical understanding if you don't have any. It's a paradox.
Wow…what a transformation. And it sounds great, especially in your hands. Great job!
Cool restoration, like it.
Very nice work!
This looks really cool without the grain being filled back in. I have a mahogany guitar with that look and it's awesome.
From one craftsman to another.. Amazing work my brother.. Keep up the GREAT work.. Thank you for posting.. Peace, Love.. T
Enjoyed your playing also... T
Beautiful color, thanks for video❤
毎度毎度、素晴らしい技ですなぁ、、✨
That grain deserved a good finish, clearcoat and left as a natural.
His guitar, his choice.
Hello Friend, very nice finish on this old Gibson SG and as usual, amazing restoration ! Thank you very much for this delightful video ! See you soon...
Very cool work and nice color choise
Wow, that's one of the most satisfying and engaging guitar restoration videos I've ever seen. Guitar zen. And great demo at the end.
Wow an SG that isn't a boring shade of red or black. Color me impressed.
Pelham blue?
@@atomicrocker Pelham blue is infinitely more interesting than red or black on these.
@@Viper505repiV1 Ha ha, I have both colors.
I love the fact that he's able to fix all these (bass)guitars, and bring them back in tip top condition. but still has these big holes in his mesa boogie cabinet. when is he going to fix that?
I also love them videos buddy. great work.

Great work, great video ❤
I like the way you positioned the sticks in a four way pattern, so it gives you a centre hole for the screw.
Clever comment
Btw those screws are not usable anymore
You made this old guitar look new while people are paying thousands of dollars for the opposite. Very satisfying result.
That is a beautiful transformation.. excellent work.
Great sound.
Just some hand tools and elbow grease, lots of patience and good taste. What a great way to give this magnificent guitar a second life. Well done...
SGって汚いままもカッコいいと思ってしまうのは俺だけ？
He sanded out the belt marks. You should never refinish the belt marks. That's how you know a guitar was played. 😢
Repainting such a guitar is a crime. it's like repainting the façade of historical a building.
@@OVS888 There were spots that needed some love - like the back of the neck. And the peeling paint needed correction. But for the most part I completely agree with you.
An SG is cool no matter what.
Hey dude,..u have ruin the history of this guitar ...and u filmed you're destruction.of a instrument That traveled many miles.
Fantastic job!! Also, excellent playing at the end!
Great job 👏
I like how you left the grain open. Nice job
new becomes old, and old becomes new again. in an experts hands. well done.
I watched Stew Mac refinish a guitar and it is a lot of work and skill. I'm a Fender guy all the way BUT great job ❗️👍
I will admit I was not big on color choice, but could see it was painted before that tacky brown. As the pieces fell together color choice was awesome.
killieのTシャツでkillie弾きまくってる最高です
You do great work! Keep it up! 😊
Some fine craftsmanship. Nice work
great work!
I don’t care for the color and finish. I would have chosen a high gloss white. But, then it’s not my guitar. The restoration is first rate. The finished product is fantastic. Shows great skill and patience. Well done.
Interesting choice of colour ( Cherry or Walnut would have looked good ) but great job in bringing the SG back to life ..
Beautiful job.
Awesome work, and fancy new color too!
Stellar job! My very first guitar in 1965 was a Gibson SG standard with the whammy bar with a white pearl handle. In 1966.
How did one afford such a guitar back then?
@@s.i.s.t.m When I was in eighth grade, I rented a Gibson LGO Acoustic for $17 a month from a local music store that I took lessons from. That money applied towards my SG. That was $170 for the 10 months. I got the Gibson and a 15 W Ampeg jet for $360. I worked off the 190 balance and our family’s Italian restaurant for the summer of 66.
@@jammergreg what a cool story, thanks for sharing!
Love the color! The body maybe could have used a grain filler, but everything turned out great!
The time effort, new tools and maybe a lack of know how, plus maybe never going to happy with the result going for the standard/custom finish. Stick with what you can do, and work your way up with cheaper guitars?
I would have kept the wood grain. I have a 72 which is all original and in much better condition
Mahogany definitely needs grain filler
Lovely work!
良い色。
敢えてマッチングヘッドにしないところが、潔くてカッコいい。
I liked the natural brown color. But great job, anyway!
I would have preferred the natural wood finish and look, but still, it looks amazing. Great job!
I thought it was an ABSOLUTE CRIME to cover it with paint when it could have had SUCH a beautiful natural wood finish
yup@@L8rCloud
With all that covered up holes? 🤨
I also prefer the natural color of wood and I think the result would have been impressive given the great effort he put in
I would have cleaned it up so it was playable and stayed in tune and left it as is. The original beat up look was really unique. I’m not into relic guitars but sg imo are the only guitars that look good like that. Maybe a tele or Strat as well. I would love to find a beat sg like that. I have a 61 and a special that are all glossy and shiny and new. Would love to add a beater to the collection. Where would one find one like that? eBay?
Love the original finish. Love the new color finish. What can I say, it’s a Gibson SG. Their phenomenal guitars! Great rebuild.
exceptional work thanks
WOW! Awesome job. It looks great!
You might want to put a satin finish on the back of the neck or sand it smooth.
Good job on the restoration! My only positive critique is that I wish you would have put a better nut on it and also a complete overhaul of the wiring and potentiometers would have done wonders for the guitar...maybe thicker gauge strings as well...again, all just input my friend. Thanks for making the video again and for demonstrating techniques for guitar restoration!!!
Best one yet
Love that color! Great job!
I'm glad you did a complete refinish. You usually clean up guitars and make them playable and i thinknthat would have been a shame in this case with all the holes that needed to be filled. I didn't think the cream and black pickups were going to work but with the colour and strange stop tailpiece... it all seems to work. The open pore finish looks great. Awesome job!
I happen to have that tailpiece on a 79 SG. It's called a Bowen Handle. and yeah,,that one is missing handle and mine has a big spring that I don't see here.
Does it also allow you to raise the action for slide playing?
@@allenbetz1175 i wouldn't think so. If you want a quick and easy tool to setup your guitar for slide, check out the Grover GP1103 "Perfect" guitar extension nut. Goes over existing nut and raises action across the board. Quick and easy to remove and restore your guitar to normal string height
1995 SG standard... Great job... But like everyone else says I prefer it's usual Cherry/Walnut color.
Good job! 👍🏾
