As a guitarist and a guitar builder in the USA I am so impressed with this video, the extent that you went on the neck is beyond belief. Awesome job I could not have done a better job myself you took what resources you had and put a new fingerboard on, put new frets in leveled and crowned it. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼, it is obvious you do know what you’re doing, your refinish on the guitar is one of the best restorations I’ve ever seen on TH-cam. A wonderful job. Great work!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
You couldn't have done a better job yourself and you're in the USA?? Well, I guess that means it would have been impossible to do a better job then 😂
You mightn't have meant it to be but your comment came across as a bit patronizing!
@@FlameFlickers
I think you're reading too much into that.
He's just giving some background for context, his experience and where he is. "Couldn't have done a better job", taken at face value, is clearly a compliment.
Your comment could come across as rather gratuitous and adversarial - but I'm sure it also came from the right place.

Just visited his channel and not trying to make fun of him' watch his video on setting up the intonation on the tele.
He has no idea what he's doing. Pitiful.
こんなに綺麗にして貰えて、ギターは絶対喜んでいる
音確認で涙がこぼれそうのイントロ引いてる時点で最高すぎる、リペアも素敵、、
Perfect. You saved and kept it original. This one looked like one of the most damaged you have ever restored. You did a great job. 🎸
Amazing work, as always. I love that the rotting areas weren’t hidden under an opaque finish. They’re part of the guitar’s history and so they’re tastefully on display.
Ι don't care much about opaque finish, i prefer the natural look of the wood grain, but i would fill in the hole left after the rotten wood was removed, with wood dust mixed with glue.
@@theo9952 i would have filled with unicorn glitter and gold mixed with epoxy and then thrown the guitar away cause it had unicorn glitter in it.
In my years as a musician, I have never seen a guitar as destroyed as that Fender Telecaster. It made me sad to see how destroyed it was. I hope her new owner loves her and takes care of her as she deserves.
Looks to me like it was under water for a while.
A good while...
I thought that as well .laying in water .@@markrichardson239
He breathed new life into a train wreck. I minor miracle!
見事。次はパンツを修理してほしい
最初、素手で触るのが憚れるくらい酷くて驚きましたが、あんなに可哀想な状態になっていたギターがピカピカに蘇ってくれて嬉しくなりました☻
When I saw the condition of that neck, I thought for sure it wasn't worth saving. But you came through with flying colors!! Brilliant work.
Essentially an advertisement for guitar cleaners and polishes.
敢えて腐れを残したのが素晴らしい判断
I agree 👍
I agree...
Booring!

Best restoration so far--you brought that beautiful guitar back from the dead. I was so anxious that you were going to have to paint the body but the refinish job is amazing! Very talented!
I was hoping he would have painted it instead of leaving the dark rotted wood showing. "To each his own."
こういうリペア動画の最後にさらっと涙がこぼれそうを弾く辺りが粋だなと思います
Fantastic work, my friend! Love that you preserved the rotted portions! Super cool look!
That poor baby! Great video! I have an ES335 style project guitar that someone started stripping the finish from and instead of completing it, sold it to the thrift store. This video showed me a great way to "finish" the job. Thanks!!
When the fretboard starting breaking apart my heart broke a little
Looks like it spent more than 1 year outdoors..
With all the great parts of this restoration I respect, as a pro for over 35yrs I would NEVER suggest to anyone to use CA glue to glue-seat frets. For anyone watching that is new to re-fretting: after thoroughly cleaning your fret slots, and pre-fitting your fret, IF you are going to glue-seat the fret, please use slightly diluted wood glue (Tightbond 2, or LePage, or WeldBond, etc) INSIDE the slot where the tang will fit, and then press or tap them in as per your chosen method, but PLEASE don't use CA glue for seating frets! That's an absolute LAST resort for any fret work or fret repair.
I WILL say that a mix of wood powder and CA glue is sometimes good for repairing a fret slot that's very old, damaged, and has become too wide or expanded for fitting the new fret--you can even spray that with accelerator after applying. You can then re-saw or re-file the slot to fit your tang. That typically one the only safe, practical, or viable uses for CA glue when it comes to frets. Even a lifting fret from an older or worn fretboard can be re-seated with diluted WeldBond and clamped. If you do it right they never lift until re-heated and pulled for re-fretting.

Hey, so nothing trying to be an as* or anything just genuienly corious, how is wood glue suppesed to hold in metal ?
I have watched a few refret jobs and from what Ive seen most people use dialuted super glue.
Judging by the mark half way up the neck when you removed the finger board, I'd say this guitar way in a flood and then the insects got to it. Great work on this one.
A superb restoration Asyl. I also liked that you didn't obliterate the playing surface wood damage.
I actually spent the first third of this video trying to figure out why he would use rotting wood to repair a guitar. Great work btw.
Yeah - to anyone interested, I’ve got some rotting wood in my barn if you want it to fix it your rusty guitar - collect only, I don’t ship!!
That poly over paint finish was so thick, at first I thought it must have been a veneer.
最後の演奏もいつも楽しみにしてましたが、涙が流れそうになりました。
R.I.P チバ
シャロン弾いてくれたのが泣けました😢
Absolutely amazing.
You just taught me about 50 techniques.
This should be a required video for Luthier school.
I cannot possibly tell you how much I got from this.
And my many, many thanks!

At first I thought you repaired it using rotting wood then I realized it was just an awkward sentence.😊
That's what I thought too :)
涙がこぼれそう、最高です。
So... here's a conversation I had last night...
My wife: hey, it's time for bed (said with a wink and a knowing smile)
Me: Sure thing! I'll be up in a minute. Just been watching a bit of TH-cam, guitar resto stuff lols
My wife: Don't be long then (wink)
45 minutes later....
Me: wow, what a lovely restoration of a Telecaster. I could watch this guy for hours on end. Another original saved. What a guy.
Me: I don't think my wife will be awake and waiting for me... oops
;)
My first thought was “why would you use rotting wood to repair a rusty guitar”.🤷♂️ Love these restorations tho 👍🏻
I never would have tried to restore that neck!! Fantastic job!!!
That went from being a boat paddle to a well loved instrument.What a challenge!
Since I've been watching you refurbish guitars I believe this one was the worse off damaged one yet but you saved it from being firewood now look how wonderful it is absolutely stunning no not perfect but its awesome
腐食してるとこをレジンで埋めて
オシャレにする発想は凄い
Far out!
Awesome restoration work. Sounds great too! Thanks for posting 👍🏻👍🏻
Amazing rescue and restoration!!👍👍👍🎸
97% improvement. I would have replaced the metal pieces that were so pitted and I would have tried to get the rotted wood area to match with wood filler rather using clear filler that showed the dark rotted wood. The rest of the guitar looks really nice.
試奏の最初のフレーズ、涙がこぼれそう!
This video is great. Thank you for your time and effort.
I wonder where do you find these guitars? Some of them are real jems.
I also wonder about all the products you use, since i can't read japanese. Can you put a list with the products in english?
千葉さんへのリスペクトを感じられました。
One way that I've found to deal with dry rot damage on guitars is to soak the effected area in CA glue (that's super glue which is also called crazy glue in some places), you want the cheap thin stuff that you can buy in dollar stores, and really give it a good soaking, letting it get down deep into the soft wood. The super glue will not fill in big holes but it will give you a nice firm base to push filler into.
Hope this helps.
Would sanding sealer--if they still make it--work and be cheaper? It dries pretty hard.
@@FlipDahlenburg You can buy stuff specially designed to harden rotten wood at the home improvement store, it's the stuff they use on window frames and the like, I've personally never used it because the area of rot I fixed was small enough to just use super glue on.
@@FlipDahlenburg Minwax make a wood hardener.
Thanks
That is truly a labor of love. Great job! I was thinking about some sort of artistic carving in the bad part of the wood.
I understand why you took the stars off, but they were my favourite bit of the guitar.
Amazing restoration! Another great one 👍 ❤
You need magic for this job...
I love the character you brought out with this one! Awesome natural colour
What a fantastic job! You are certainly a proper craftsman. Congratulations on this fine restoration.
ナチュラルフィニッシュなのが良い…!!!!
埋めた所も渋くてカッコいい♥
Well, it LOOKS fantastic....
Fantastic restoration. I love that you kept the old pitted parts, and did not fit new chrome. It has a life story in its scars. Beautiful work.
It almost looks like this guitat had termites and wood rot 😮. Great job
rusted metal on surface and clean under the panel, yeah I believe it mate
There's no such thing as true genuine restoration on TH-cam. I'm not even being sarcastic.
I’m always amazed at the skill you have to get these old messed up guitars to a point where they are back to their original glory. Very impressive!! You are a very talented luthier. Plus it’s a great bonus to see the fixed guitar being played at the end 🎸🎸
Amazing work! So beautiful. ANOTHER ONE SAVED!
Really enjoyed this restoration! It calmed my brain for a bit. Thanks for posting. 🤘
Hello Friend, indeed one your best ! This MJT Fender Telecaster is well preserved despite its former condition and has been faithfully restored grace to your fantastic talent ! The fretboard replacement, is a piece of art and finally, this Telly has a trumendous vintage sound ! Well done Man ! Thank you so much for this amazing video, see you next...
I could not stop watching. Thanks!
Wow! Mastery of work. When I read your video title that it mentioned ‘rotting wood’, I thought ‘no way!’ But you were spot on! Can’t believe a guitar can get that trashed. I’m guessing longterm water damage? Well done, great work.
Wow! You really gave that guitar a second life! Amazing skill, incredible work. I enjoyed watching, thanks for sharing
Looks like it was underwater for a while. Nice job!!
これは、、、いい!!こういうレストア綺麗になるけどデザインくそ、みたいなことあるけどこれはまじで気持ちいい。ロゴもあの落ち着いた感じ選んだの最高!
love your work. thanks!
Great work! The title suckered me in: I read it as "I used rotting wood to repair a rusty guitar" and thought "that's a curious choice. let's see how this went..." 😹
このビデオを見たのは全くの偶然でした。 単に素晴らしい作品であり、保存状態に欠陥があるにもかかわらず、素晴らしい楽器でもありました。 ピックガードについては、時間を無駄にするつもりはありませんが、新しいものを購入します) 申し訳ありませんが、私は日本語を話せません。Google 翻訳者がこれをしてくれました
awesome work. seems like water damage at some point but you fixed this one up nicely.
救いましたね❗️復活の感動を頂きました❣️🌏ギターも人生も捨てたものじゃない…と教えて頂きました❣️またも〈ギターテレサ〉でしたね❣️🌏
Magical. So relaxing. I kept thinking: 'How can anyone possibly salvage that guitar?'
Astonishing work. Congrats for your result. Especially leaving the wood clear for everyone to see its beauty.
Excellent restoration work!👌🏽✨
As a luthier, I find this video interesting but you really need to learn how to use chisels and wood plane as not to rely on power tools all the time. For example the the truss insert should have been planed to ensure perfect square for the fretboard to sit on. Similarly, a chisel would have produce a far nicer nut slot and the transition curve behind the nut to the headstock face could have been carved to produce a nice line before sanding.
Obviously water damaged. It would be great to know the history of this guitar. One has to wonder if this guitar is a tsunami survivor.
I was thinking the same thing, I’m guessing it suffered so much being submerged in salty sea water?
@@SweatyHaggis the bridge was surely under salt water
WOW Your a true pro, and the patiences ..... like putting the puzzle all back together again!! Great Video
wow this is your best video I have seen of you restoring a guitar so far amazing. Do you know how the guitar got in to such terrible shape, looks like flood damage. You saved this guitars life after so much neglect
tremendos thanks for you work, you saved this beautiful guitar, i love old telecasters so much, it looks great and amazing. beautiful work.
試奏の時の曲がエモ、スクリーモ系ていうのがドツボで拝聴させていただいております。
This was relaxing and enjoyable to watch, great job!
生まれ変わりましたね、テレキャス、3つのピックアップで色々な音色がでて楽しみ❤
Thanks! I never knew they had so many screws, but it’s definitely quite the job to do. I used to bondo gas tanks that were beat to heck. I don’t miss sanding
and wet sanding by hand! Again thanx for showing me how to do this!❤😮
thank you!!
Some instruments are so badly contructed, that even with a ton of repairs, they need to be thrown away in the trash to be honest. Then you have neglected diamonds in the ruff, gems like what you have. That absolutely need TLC to bring them back to life. Good job man!
It takes an impressive amount of neglect to get a guitar body with termite damage. Great work restoring this.
I'm wondering about that UV cure resin used. I'd like to get my hands on a bottle of it, if it's suitable strength for filling in next to the neck socket.
(Though I suppose most of the tension goes down the body. Still...)
Perfect restoration, it turned out to be a real nice relic guitar. Amazing!
Too nice, in my opinion.
nice restoration, thanks for the video. have a nice Holidays
Great work as usual
It looks great, nice job. I watch a lot of cooking shows because I like to eat and those people never wear gloves, but here I watch a guitar show and I see gloves. Maybe those cooks need to watch.
it's such a miracle when a beautiful instrument is revived this way, well done ! 👍👍👍
レリックやエイジング加工に価値が生まれる中で綺麗に復活させる。

動画楽しみにしてます!
今後も頑張ってください!
Outstanding restoration, thank you for posting this video.
Beautiful work!! You did an amazing job on that guitar! I was surprised to see you reconstruct the neck, whereas most people would just throw the old one away and get a new one. But you really did a great job on it.
At least in three moments of this video, I wrote the guitar off & considered it garbage. Especially with wood rot, which I understood as irreversible unless the rotted/rotting wood were removed in a large section. Superb job!
Japanese translated:
The guitar is definitely happy to have it so beautiful.
I just restored an Ibanez RG series guitar. It wasn't as bad as this Fender but, it was neglected too. You're my motivation, good Sir!
ボロボロのギターを見て、前の持ち主がどんな人で、どんなプレイスタイルだったかを想像するのが好きです👍
Nice job all around and a sweet guitar when you got it done-enjoy it!
I looked up the serial number. It says:
Crafted between 2006-2008 by Tokai Gakki, Japan.
Just under 20 years of use and abuse on this guitar. Thanks for bringing it back to life!
Found that as well. Hope it doesn't go back to the previous owner...
In 2011 there was the big tsunami in Japan, which is probably where the water damage came from.
Amazing work as always. Looking at the neck alone, I thought it was too much work to restore.
ずっと見入っちゃいました。
So nice to see not only an unbelievably good restoration, but also a legitimate one that isn't faked. Great great work!
Also,forgot to say, whoever left that guitar to rot should be banned from ever even LISTENING to music ever again. Just criminal....😢😢😢
WOW !!! What a beautiful restoration. You gave an old guitar new life. Bravo.
Now lets see you repair those trousers.
Glad you checked intonation before the demo. 😉
What a beautiful save of a 20yr old '72 Telecaster Custom re-issue....
Beautiful work.
Excellent job... thank you for sharing your craft.
