The Made in Canada parts from the Bucketvai guitar are by Graphtech - Resomax is one of their product lines. I use their nuts and saddles when working on guitars. I've seen guitars from a few manufacturers come stock with their products, and they are decent parts.
Hey Trogly I see you were a little worried with wiring, Seymour Duncan has a wiring diagram website where you input your controls (volume, tone, push pull, mini switch, etc) and what style pickups you have and it’ll create a wiring diagram to show you how it’s supposed to go.
Fret tear out can be fixed with ebony sawdust (which someone actually sells) and drops of superglue... but that fretboard... it might take awhile. If you have tuners with pins (Sperzel, Fender) and not screws, Stewmac sells a drill guide that’s perfect for those jobs. I’ve seen the baseplate system from another brand, it’s interesting, but I’m concerned the outline of the plate will make an impression like the lettering on yours.
LOVE to see the workshop videos!! It's nice to see someone who not only has the "know-how" like you do, but the "caring touch" as you do. Great stuff. I hope all your customers appreciate this.
Lol that's because he has a Buckethead Les Paul that someone used Steve Vai parts on lol. I am going to be refinishing my Gibson TeleBird guitar. Yeah look it up, you won't find one lol. I bought that blue Gibson Firebird Zero Austin did a video on in 2018, and I bought it with the sole intention on refinishing it and customizing it using the Firebird body but Telecaster style pickups and appointments lol. Here I thought I was being all original and then I see that several others have done exactly like what I am planning on doing to the exact same model guitar! Maybe I should use Iceman stuff instead of Telecaster and just call it an IceBird? lol.
FYI...Lizard Spit fret polishing is fantastic for cleaning and polishing frets...its about $15...probably 5-6 fret jobs or more...I highly recommend it!!!
Here’s an easy fix for the pickup base plate without modifying it in any way. Take 2 saddles from a tune o matic style bridge you don’t plan on using, super glue or hot glue them to the underside of the base plate, lining up the holes. Imperial pickup height screws (Gibson, SD, emg, dimarzio) fit perfectly through a saddle hole. I figured that out myself when someone drilled out emg pickup bushings I had bought. I’ve done this on 3 guitars over the last few years.
You've officially converted me on silverbursts. As long as I can remember I've HATED them, and could never understand why somebody would EVER choose that finish. And now I NEED one more than I need that second stimulus check. TF Trogly?!?!
the difference in the bridge and neck pickups, measure the distance from pole to pole outside measurement only, not center to center, the neck is most likely 50mm, the bridge 52mm.
Darn! I was really hoping for fun you would do a quick playing demo of the bucket head with the pia pickups in there. Just to document something a little ridiculous that would never otherwise happen
With the neck pickup you can go to a hardware store and get some machine screws and nuts and glue a nut to the bottom of the plate and youre good to go. I ran into the same problem with some emgs i bought for a crappy epiphone i bought so i could have a guitar with actives and used the same solution.
Yo, Trog GOD, I've found a way to fit metric switch tips on Les Paul's. Start by choosing a drill bit that is slightly larger than the smaller metric switch tip opening. DON'T use a drill! By hand, twist the drill bit into the switch tip until you "bottom" out. It's been my experience, that you'll have to use 2 different sized bits to reach the desired diameter to perfectly fit a Les Paul switch. Yours in Bizz, David
Yeah t buckers are decent and I could find a home for them too. But those do look like the old school dimarzios. I prefer a buying a modded guitar because you know someone at least played it and it wasn't a factory dud.
good trick if your pickups have widened feet, solder a nut the size of the pickup mount screw you're trying to fit onto the foot, and it'll catch that.
@@ethanballard7627 really? That would depend on alot tho I've been in this for over 30yrs intensely and never heard of that one b4 cause after hearing that statement I feel now like almost all of them buckers are upside down now I'd have to look how there wound
@@williamjordan4929 it's so you can put the adjustable pole pieces closer to the bridge. If that doesn't give you enough top end, then you can lower the pickup, then raise the adjustable pole pieces. personally, I'd rather just change the pickup.
@@ethanballard7627 well it's always a particular preference for whatever I'm goin for I've done alot of experimenting which also builds on experience I dont think I've ever seen a total expert ever for long running lol it's one of the greatest ways to Express an art through music. Not m
Yeah, me too. I really liked the different gold aesthetic on that Buckethead. Were I in the market for one, I would have asked to keep all that gold bling. :) And as a DiMarzio straplock lover, I would never have touched that either. But I understand if the goal is to return to stock...Would have been nice to HEAR those Pias before all the work to take them out...
I thought the whole Vai/Bucket hybrid looked great. I would have offered it for sale first with the option of converting it back, and then done the work after the sale was confirmed.
So when your in doubt about which pickup is neck and which is bridge check the distance between the outside pole pieces (center to center). The neck should be the one with the shorter distance. Cool Video, :)
Hey Austin - I know this has been brought up before but as someone who was like you and used steel wool pads to clean his frets, I have come to the conclusion that it's true, you should not use steel wool when you clean anything on a guitar!! Numerous professional Luthiers on You Tube have said the same thing and so I think perhaps it's advice that should be adhered to. Now, I have cleaned thousands of frets using steel wool without any issues at all. Just like I have used a steel wire brush when cleaning my grill, I never had any issues until about 3 months ago when I bit into a piece of steak that I cooked on my grill and got a piece of wire shoved into my gum!! 3M makes a synthetic steel wool pad that I have not used yet but from what I am hearing it is great! It works just as well as the regular steel wool pads without rusting, crumbling apart or leaving anything behind. So I would suggest you check into those, "3M synthetic wool pads". Another alternative that I have and do use is regular sand paper, 800-1200 grit works best. I use the type generally used for automobiles, the "wet and dry" type. Usually they are the kind that are black. I have also used just a regular Scotch Brite pad as well. But give it a try and yes I know, "I have used them for years and never had any trouble at all" - but do you really want to take the chance that the one time a steel wool pad does do damage happens to be on one of your "holy grail" rare finds?
@@davidkastin4240 Yeah I usually a polishing cream and a rag but when it comes to polishing up the frets on a used guitar for the first time I will use things like Steel Wool pads, but after hearing what professional Luthiers have to say about it, nahh there are other things one can use that don't have the possibility of harming a guitar like how the steel wool pads can, and often do.
Here is a tip. Next time you get stripped pickup threaded area's on pickups get some blind nuts and epoxy them in the enlarged pickup holes to create threaded area to screw into. If you cant find blind nuts to that pitch a thin nut would work. Better than trying to change base plates.
Maybe some sorta curing light or UV lamp to age the wood/paint? Dentists use a curing light for composite fillings. I'm totally guessing, but it might work. No idea really.
Dear God that silver burst is in crazy good condition it's barely even yellowed. I'm not a collector I'm a player.I don't care if it looks like somebody beat it with a hammer as long as it plays good and sounds nice. But wowie-zowie can I appreciate the quality of that instruments build!!
I have to admit, I thought a "buckethead Gibson" was going to be similar to a panhead Harley. Didn't not realize Buckethead was a person. Thanks for making me learn something today!!! LOL
ive collected as many screws off guitars as possible over the yrs and had the same issue but luckily i found two self tapping slightly larger pickup screws and it saved the day! hoarding for the win
Just starting to learn how to solder myself, I bought a cheap Arbor Flying V to practice on so i wouldn't destroy my Fender Strat haha Today's episode really motivated me to keep at it!
What do the red buttons actually do on the bucket head guitar? I’ve heard them being referred to as kill switches, but I have never had first hand experience with them or what they do when you’re playing.
Hi Trogly..! Love watching your videos..! i have 3 on my channel, but due to being hospitalized in April, from Congestive heart failure, and Covid killing my business for w while, i had to put my project aside. Now i can barely afford my bills, let alone building this guitar. Its is a PRS Neck and Body. I was curious what you are doing with those gold Ratio tuners and the Vai Pia Pickups. Man, i would love those..! My friend Enzo is gonna do the finishing for me, as i can't myself. Any way you can help me out..? Either way, i really enjoy your channel. All the best to you..! Tarynne
I actually really liked it with the upgrades, not my fav pickups but the look of everything was nice, dare I say a gold pickguard would look good on it? Haha, nice that the mods weren't permanent though so no harm no foul
I do agree that in today's world I want all original. 45 years ago I was swapping out pickups, tuners, knobs, pots and bridges. Today when I see the covers off pickups on a vintage 70s model of anything I am disappointed. I have had quite a bit of luck getting NOS parts for several for several 1970s Ibanez guitars. In today's market a vintage guitar is not like flipping a house. I want the originals in the guitar. I do not want harvest gold appliances in an old house that I purchase today.
Solderins P/Ps is not that hard. I'm far from being an experienced solderer, but even I managed to wire my Epi SG for coil split and parallel/serial. The Freeway switch 3X3-05, that is a real challenge! You really have to be an experienced solderer for that!
I'd love to see you put all those parts from the bucket head into an Epiphone to make a great playing and sounding guitar similar to Phil McKnight's Sharpen my Axe
Hey Trogly. Try out Fret rubbers made by Crimson Guitars from England. They are amazing. No metal gets on the pickups, no scratches on the fretboard and even different grits for a better polish. Don’t use steel wool any more that’s under your Niveau! #Crimsonguitars #tools #luthier
Not sure if you would be interested but there is a guy on Facebook selling what he says is a rare Gibson Les Paul Korina. Frank Beatrice on the "Guitar and Bass Gear trading post. best of luck
Im really interested in trading my guitar but i basically live in a hole so my only option would be to trade online. I was thinking trading on reverb but i dont really know how i am to do that safely. Do you have any way of trading guitars through reverb safely? Let me know if you do. Thanks!
Gibson is the only brand where upgrades are frowned aponned! That's the difference between a collector & a player. I'm not hating just stating facts. What ever floats your boat! 🎸🍻
Always had to scavenge to find any tools I can use to perform maintenance to my epi lp customs and Jackson v and my epi lp standard, but I recently got that Ibanez multi-tool, and it is so much better! Love th thing, totally worth like the $22 bucks I paid for it!
You should look through his videos and find the one where Austin makes his own rear access plate - it will leave you with nightmares for weeks to come LOLOL.

I would have gone with Tender Chicken but okay
You really love the Buckethead guitar, don't you? haha
Hes bought like 20 of them
One of these days he’s going to sell one to me.
I can't blame him I love them too
A friend of mine has a buckethead lp and im not a gibson fan but that things just about plays itself

I’m really curious about how that PIA pickup sounded like on that guitar though.
I want to hear the pick ups from the Steve Vai Buckethead. You gotta find something to stick em in so we can hear them.
have you any idea what make the pick ups are that came out of the buckethead ?they look great
LOVE to see the workshop videos!! It's nice to see someone who not only has the "know-how" like you do, but the "caring touch" as you do. Great stuff. I hope all your customers appreciate this.

There you are, I’ve been watching some of your older videos waiting for you to upload
on the enlarged holes on the baseplate: get the appropriate size bolt for the pickup screw, and solder it on the little legs of the baseplate.
FYI...Lizard Spit fret polishing is fantastic for cleaning and polishing frets...its about $15...probably 5-6 fret jobs or more...I highly recommend it!!!
I bought a FireFly Black LP copy and will be putting the Vai Utopia pickups in it. Black and Gold with the Gold Hardware of course.

Also, when you use steel wool, use a small neodymium magnet in the wad of the wool to keep the steel wool particles from flying around.
With the neck pickup you can go to a hardware store and get some machine screws and nuts and glue a nut to the bottom of the plate and youre good to go. I ran into the same problem with some emgs i bought for a crappy epiphone i bought so i could have a guitar with actives and used the same solution.

Just being honest here, if those are the late '70's Dimarzio's I'd rather have them
Are 70s dimarzios good? I have some modern ones, but don't know the history of the brand other than they pioneered cream covers.
Chris Gayle
Any old pickup will be great unless it uses a ceramic magnet.
@@chrisgayle4360 I have some in a Dean ML that I have and I dig them. As with anything though pickups are subjective
Yeah t buckers are decent and I could find a home for them too. But those do look like the old school dimarzios. I prefer a buying a modded guitar because you know someone at least played it and it wasn't a factory dud.
Sweat causes those metallic finishes to yellow or green as well as the moisture and acidic nature of sweat reacts with the metal in the finish
Trogly's in the🐾 HOUSE!!!
good trick if your pickups have widened feet, solder a nut the size of the pickup mount screw you're trying to fit onto the foot, and it'll catch that.
The yellow’d out custom is so cool
what does having an upside down neck pickup do? i know dimebag did that too
If your neck pickup is too dark, you can flip it around to add a bit more top end.
@@ethanballard7627 that’s pretty cool

Paper towel and automotive chrome polish > steel wool. It's a slower job, but you can polish the frets to a mirror finish.
More videos like this. Liked hearing how you restore and what you do to maintain these guitars. Very informative!
Well, this should be exciting
I really like the bucket head
I was so excited when i got this notification
I like that you actually said"quadrple zero"......generally in the industry we say 4 ought....

Dude, use E6000 and glue little nuts to the pickup base plates. You can use silver solder for the little nuts if you have soldering experience.
I’ve used jbweld and put the same size nuts as screws on the bottom of the plate
Maybe some sorta curing light or UV lamp to age the wood/paint? Dentists use a curing light for composite fillings. I'm totally guessing, but it might work. No idea really.

You should use a vapor respirator, that mask your using is used for dust applications. It useless on solder vapor.
And useless against the covid...sorry I couldn’t resist!!!!
you could just give the tuner base plates a quick go on a grinder and that would remove letters making them nice and smooth and no imprints !

Nice ..love the buckethead..how much do you want for it ..?thank you
Hmmmm, both the studio and standard BH sigs had 496r and 500t gibson alcino pups not dimarzio??
You could peel that sticker off the back of the headstock and put a UV light on it for a couple weeks solid.
Those Steve Vai Utopia pickups are pretty amazing. I put a full set in an Ibanez not too long ago.
What do the red buttons actually do on the bucket head guitar?
I’ve heard them being referred to as kill switches, but I have never had first hand experience with them or what they do when you’re playing.
use a dremel or a tiny drill to shave out the switch so it will fit, I do this fairly often because ebay
