- Hello People!
Thanks for joining me for more guitar restoration videos! In this repair we'll do two finish repairs on maple and mahogany and a new pickup installation.
Cheers,

I really love those wiggly saddles. We all do.
You are the man who I try to emulate in my own work. Great job. Keep educating us.
Thanks, will do!

Glad you enjoyed it
Scott has done great work on my guitars. Highly recommended
Once, twice, three times a goo bloost. Your glue boost jokes crack me up.
Lol... Cracks me up every time
Great stuff. Your repairs are so thorough and, as I’ve said several times, Scotty, you’re a true master at refinishing / blemish repair. You’re a magician when it comes to that finish work, making old gouges and scrapes virtually disappear.
Thanks for another entertaining and educational video. I’m a huge fan on your work/channel. Have a great weekend.
Cool video Scott. 👍
Thanks 👍
very nice repair Scotty ,Mohawk quick fill Statesman oak is what I have .nope you would have had to sand it back off never mind lol
I love your honesty regarding re do’s
Herb; Joe Pass’ sidekick. They did amazing duo work.
Those strap buttons on the neck heel give me the willies. I wonder why people do that?
Hi - Not sure I'd describe Ellis as just a "sidekick" since his recording career pre-dates Pass by quite a bit and arguably much more distinguished . While he was certainly not as "virtuosic" as Pass, Ellis is on so many Norman Granz Clef/Verve sessions with Ben Webster, Roy Eldridge, Billie Holiday, Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Lester Young, Ella and Louis, with Oscar Peterson years before Pass.
Also, not sure about your strap button concerns -- is it because of installing the button or its placement? If the latter, it's safer than making a hole in the heel itself where the wood can split or in the acoustic body, and the angle works quite well.
@@rubiera58 Yes I agree they’re both equally distinguished and sidekicks to each other.
My concerns with the hole there is the placement. Seems like a sure fire way to split it.
I bought a new black ES 165 back in the early 90s and it had a typical Rosewood saddle and not the adjustable metal one like this one has. Not sure the one on this guitar is original. Could be I guess on the Herb Ellis signature.
I’m not sure either. Thanks!
The metal-over-rosewood is standard to the Herb Ellis model…
What was that guitar jack? Never saw one like that before.
It’s the StewMac jack installation tool 😃
No, not the black tool. That silver cylinder shaped input jack. It looked like half a roll of Lifesavers, with the threads of an input jack sticking out.
