Again me 😂.
I already told you that the guitars made in in Japan is awesome and flawless by any means!
But you just bring up a a rusty beauty left to roth to life.
Awesome job as always.
Greetings from Serbia.
Long live Japan.
All the best and stay safe my friend ❤❤❤❤😊😊😊🤘🇷🇸-🇯🇵 🙌🙌🙌
Pretty interesting neck joint. I thought it's deep glued, but in the reality it's even more interesting. Combines advantages of a glued neck and a bolt-on one at the same time
I love when a new video of yours comes to life! ありがとうございます
This guitar looked like it was stored in a garage in the desert with no case, exposed to sandstorms and dry conditions. Nice job restoring it.
ピカピカになっていく様子が見てて気持ち良いです
ナットが崩壊しなかったのがすごい...
I really enjoy watching you give neglected and abused guitars and basses a second life.
I LOVE the demo pieces at the end of your videos!
Excellent restoration for a really beautiful old Greco Led Paul relic.
Awesome job! Those Greco’s are real sleeper guitars. Keep up the good work
Relaxing videos, but man, I love your playing style. I anxiously await the end of the video to see what you will play next! Very nice, thanks.
綺麗になっていくのは見てて気持ちいいですね。
Damn! That BOCCHI THE ROCK riffs was so good! Good job on the cleaning. I hope you also do re-frets on your next videos. Keep it up!
That was a difficult one! Looks awesome.
The Arpeggio lick. 上手い!!!
That poor thing was super funky! Wow! Fantastic rehab on a nice guitar.
Great job! The meticulous work and dedication is enjoying to watch.
Great work !
You did a incredible job 👏
That's one beautiful guitar...great job.
very satisfying.. it is amazing how well those Gototh tuners shined back up :)
Крутая гитара, вернувшаяся с того света. Красивая и аккуратная работа 👍
What a transformation! It looks amazing now.
Another great job !!
I can't believe it's working , you did great job.
It came off great! Loved it
試奏で星座になれたら弾いてるの凄い…しかもソロパートまで
온세상이 봇치다...
Looks and sounds great! I love the freckles on the top haha
Estupendo, como siempre. Greco hizo algunos instrumentos muy buenos. Valía la pena rescatar esa guitarra. Ehorabuena.
Awesome job on guitar…Catchy tune at the end…
Essa guitarra é absurdamente boa.
Excellent work as always. I am dying to get my hands on one of those that one sounded really good. I’m gonna keep my eye open. They don’t come around in my area very often at all. I will search for the right one but that one looks great. Good job man.
Great job! You took us on a world tour with your playing, especially at 30:00.
リペアもギターも上手い
Oh my God...I have seen too many guitars like these in my career...
As ever you did a magnificent job...
What career is that exactly? 8vr had several close friends who were guitar repairmen/luthiers and this isn't something they see. I'm old, seen more old guitars than I can possibly remember and have not once seen guitars in this condition yet this guy finds them every week,how is that? This is total buuls**t, wake up.
@@TeleCaster66 A career that started back in 1980 after I had graduated from a luthiery school in my native France 🙂
You might be older than me but I'm not a kid anymore either although I wish I still was 🙂
I don't know which country you come from but in France and Europe in general ( and in Japan too it would seem ) people love to "customize" ( or completely mess up ) their guitars and then they'll often come crying to people like us to fix them...Either that or they'll find these on yard sales or "flea" markets...
That said maybe the Japanese have taken trashing guitars to a much higher level 🙂 who knows ?
Have a good day Sir
another fantastic video
I bet that think stunk like a casino with all that smoke caked on it.
I really love your work. I found your TH-cam videos about two months ago or so. I'm really glad I did.
What you are doing it's something I want to start doing. My problem is that people with guitars and that kind of shape still think they her worth more than they are.
One person whose guitar was as bad if not worse shape than the one in this video wanted what he originally paid for it! He claimed it's a classic and he knows what it's worth.
After six months online trying to stop it. The price was dropping every single week. I refuse to buy it even when it dropped to what I originally offered him. Weeks before that he had sent me an email and told me we could work out a deal. I just never responded.
Look forward to watching more from you.
Exuberance of youth, misunderstanding of the buyers premium, I can couch it nice ways, so as not to bruise ego's,but it is what it is, in the world of "vintage", let alone antiques?.
Great video ❤
Great job ❤
Ok so great job, it cleaned up nicely but ain't gonna lie a fret cleaning and fresh set of strings is all it needed imo bro that patina was amazing haha!
Very nice job.
Amazing, good job 👌
Nice work!
Those frets need to be re-leveled and crowned. It might even be a good candidate for a full refret.
On a plywood guitar, why waste money..
Those Maxxon pickups are howlin'!
何より楽器自身が喜んでいますね！
バンアパ川崎さんパートで夜の向こうへ、優勝です！！！
このECG550はフジゲンで製造されたエピフォンジャパンのELP-55Cとヘッドデザイン違いの同型機だと思います。
そう思うのは独自の3点ボルトオンネックの構造が全く同じだからです。
グレコ製品はフジゲンでも製造されていました。90年代だと思います。
ボディ部分はエピフォン製品と共用されていたと推察されます。
I watch these while I practise guitar. Makes my playing better. Or that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.
Greco's are great guitars. I purchased a Greco Gibson Byrdland copy when I was stationed there back in the early 80's.
il looks like Gibson les paul jimmy page signature . awesome copy Awesome restoration
Super really too good..🙏👍!!
WOW this is satisfying.
my kind of meditation. just wow!
Wow, I've been dicking with guitars for decades and never saw a bolt-on like that. Cool design, nice cleanup. Some of those lawsuit-era Grecos are cool as hell
I have to say, the rusty hardware and pickup covers do like kinda cool.
Bro, it’s amazing
Волшебство мастера🤩👍🏼
Hello, very nice repro but overall, excellent restoration. Bravo Man, more videos like this one !!!
Greatest invention of the 20th century by far....the electric guitar.
finally! a person who plays Bocchi The Rock songs on a Les Paul like guitar instead of the usual pacifica
I love how the cleaning was very gentle, until the guitar playing kicks in 😅
My mate has a nice Greco SG copy. Great guitars.
That neck pickup sounds sick
What a sweet looking rig I'm drooling 🤤 😢😅😂❤
i love this series you are doing! so great to restore these instruments and keep them playing music again👍 and awesome playing at the end too!
Can i please ask where do you find these very worn and weathered guitars? have they been outside for a while? or forgotten in warehouses somewhere? thanks again
I watched this twice and enjoyed it very much. The way the bolts are hidden in the neck pocket is ingenious.
Железную фурнитуру щеткой почистил исключительно😉
This baby (I'm guessing 1980) was in an atrocious state... Good job cleaning her up 👍🙏
Japanese Greco's are amazing! I'd love to find an LP Custom like this here in Europe, but they're very few and far between.
I don’t have too much knowledge in guitars. Would these guitars be considered lawsuit guitars?
This is a late 80’s/early 90’s model and was actually built in Korea. You can tell from the headstock markings. I have an early 80’s made in Japan Greco.
@@markusantonio4866 Greco was one of the companies prevalent in the lawsuit era but this guitar was built in the late 80’s or early 90’s.
Muchas gracias por compartir. Muy util esta informacion.
最後の試奏がthe band apartなのがいいですね
I don't realize where you find those instruments, but amazing job!
“Find” might me a strong term, and wildly inaccurate.
自分も汚ギターは大好きです❗️
国産の厚塗り塗装だと汚れがキレイに落ちちゃいますねー
ボディはもちろんですがキレイになった指板みるとめっちゃ嬉しくなります😂
Love it 👍🏻
Хорошая ра. И очень хороший инструмент. Очень хотелось бы в живую послушать
Great job though surprised you didn't remove that pickup cover before using a wire brush to clean it. I would be concerned that a lot of the rust and bits would get down under the cover. Looks fantastic though
Love to watch this (instruction)video. My only question is how to install all the wire(s) which where taken off. I don't have a clue where and how to do that. Are there instructions how to connect the wire on the exact right spot (again) I would love to see that.
Respect for the job you did.
I would love to own that guitar
12:33 I've found a good way to clean these small parts is to use some fine beach sand mixed with water and some industrial hand cleaner. Put these all together into a small plastic jar and shake together until the parts are clean. Works very well and doesn't leave many deep scratches compared to a wire brush.
So, do a thousands of miles trip to a beach. Wash your guitar. Walk back for decades. Man, you are old and forgotten, before you can play, that way. Ah, you ARE a Greco?
@@voornaam3191 you ok bro? You can buy beach sand from a hardware store.
That's a great tip. The hand cleaner will have a more coarse abrasive and limonene, a strong natural solvent.
@@mrbuttons1243 when I first tried it, I figured that if the soap was mild enough for skin, it's would be ok for screws etc. At work, I have been rebuilding a large, poorly maintained CNC grinding machine which has many small parts I have cleaned this way. Very effective and leaves a lovely bright finish.
Literally beyond belief!
bocchi?!?!
very satisfying to watch, thank you🙏
Awesome 👍
Damn it's a Tone Zone !
Excelente guitarra 👍👍👍👍👍🇨🇱
i like the bochii solo ahah
He put the black valum nobe on the bridge pickup it's supposed to go on the neck pickup. But great restoration as always
Nice cleanup, but you should have levelled and recrowned the frets, and i would have tried to wash the dirt off the body and neck better using polishing paste and would not have used the wire brush on the gold plated parts.
I Wonder how it got in that point. Great work and vídeo.
金属ブラシの代わりに、金属部分にスプレーを使用します。韓国では「PB-1」という名前で販売されており、ギターのボディとネックの汚れもよく洗い流します。たばこの煙からだと思います。
Реплика Гибсона? Мастер - и есть мастер. Красивая работа
That’s a cool old Greco and sneaky genius how they camouflaged the bolt on design they could’ve put a strap button on the one exposed neck screw and hid it even more.
I wonder if they thought early on Gibson were hiding neck hardware ? Possibly they built some of the early Grecos based off photographs ? I never realized that some of the Japanese bolt on LPs were like that, it’s very cool though.
I don’t think a well designed neck joint is in anyway inferior to set and neck through. In many ways a bolt on is better especially if you ever get into modding and changing bridges you might need to change your neck angle a bit.
Now it's all clean...time for a fret job
Haz-Mat suit? I've never seen such a filthy guitar. Sounds good -- worth the effort.
Top essa Gibson, original com certeza; só precisava mesmo de um trato.
Que belo trabalho ,um trabalho limpo 🤣 ficou show
Purple power would knock all that grime off within seconds.
Looks like you uncovered a beautiful ax . Sounds amazing. Where do you find these guitars in this condition at??
@@brianmorrison4865 bro, i clean and upgrade 2nd hand guitars and as far as my experience goes, those dirt and stains are legit. You have to be a professional relic guitar luthier to even make such dirt and stains like that. Did you even see the serial number of how old that guitar is? There so many old guitars stacked up on Japan surplus centers and pawnshops that are so dusty and you can pick one as dirty as this.
@@Ry_ValzFinally! Someone who understands a bit of Japanese culture and their huge second hand market, instead of just blindly calling these videos “fake”.
被災ギターですかね。"EGC-550" ─ 懐かしい響き
Agreed
Indeed
amazing job. But it needs new frets.
I used to have one, nice Black Beauty Greco Les Paul, sounded so cool. But a close friend of mine stole it and sold it.
一見セットネックかと思いきやボルトオンだとはビックリw
Well done on being able to clean the guitar. It really requires a fretdress to bring it back to playing condition.
Also how you can remove grime and dirt with buffing compound
