I think this one's actually an Ibanez, but yes, Gibson could do with improving the design. Trouble is, they did that in the 70s with a really strong 3-piece maple neck with a volute, then their customers didn't like that it was different from the Les Pauls that their favourite guitarists played back in the day.
Screws would not work. They would have to be drilled perpendicular to the neck into braces that fit the curve of the neck... And since your thumb slides up and down the neck, and you would have to also have it on the fret board, that would render the instrument unplayable. You lack the ability to think the situation through to the end result. This guitar is meant to be played again. I'm skeptical about it to, but I'm also not going to talk about something I obviously don't understand like I know what I'm talking about.

The suggestions in this thread are wrong. In any case, in the guitar repair realm you can only do as much as the customer can afford. Let's not give luthier advice to the people who do this for a living.
@@sirswift23 the "luthier" in this video is wrong. Sorry, but experienced people know. That's not arrogance, it's experience. She's awesome for going for it, and she'll learn from it when the repair fails after a few seasons, and she'll move forward in life successfully.
I worked at Gibson and Fender for a decade each, and both places we used West Systems Epoxy and Carbon Fibre cloth. It will never snap in that spot again,I can promise that. In 20 yrs, i never heard of the same guitar coming back except for Nugent's Byrdland....but its Nugent, so....

That was a clean break with a steep angle and a ton of gluing surface. If it was more straight up and down and more of an end grain to end grain joint, then you'd need to spline it. For this, no it's not necessary
ive got a break almost identical to this , im tempted to give it a try. It was repaired once before but broke again just from playing it a few inches higher.
Wach full here ;) th-cam.com/video/UEkZNkOBA08/w-d-xo.html 1. "Gluing the truss rod" - you can't do a metal+wood bond with Titebond, bc it's dont fit for this purpose. Beside that - truss rod here is in polyethylene film, and polyethylene, you know, dont really gluable at all. 2. "Truss rod non-adjustable now" - the nut located on the other side, and look first p, in case of any further questions about gluing the truss rod. 3. "Rubber, lol?" - in case of perfect fit of parts this is the best method bc it compresses from all sides and hold crack firmly. In case of any other clamp you get only two point of pressure, damaged wood and helluva lot of other issues 4. "SPLINES" - Nope, gluing cracks with THIS much area don`t need any splines. And doesn`t affect playability at all. It will definitely sounds bit different, but not so much as many told here and after all it plays again :)
@@MeCC2003 she fixing a broken headstock is she not. well it was my first one why you jelius cus you cant repair your own stuff. you have to pick on olthers to make you feel good..
This happened to my guitar, it was my pride and joy and also played my wife down the isle on our wedding day. Broke my heart when it got damaged. I had some one try to fix it but it was such a terrible repair I’ve never been able to play a single chord on it since. 😢
Nice result, but I’d have skipped the paint step. Sometimes customers request that things be done a certain way, so I’m not necessarily ragging on the luthier here. But I find you can get pretty solid results without having to paint over the wood grain by just using a bit of tinted shellac to blend the edges. Sometimes tinting isn’t even necessary, with a neck like this I’d probably just use a more amber colored shellac, not the super blonde kind.
I just realized all the guitars ive owned yhat had neck repairs,...... WERE NOT repaired properly. Incredible job. Beautiful paint match as well. Top shelf.
I wish I had a cool friend like you to just learn from your work is really cool and I like to play 🎸 I've got a couple Ibanez's, a couple Mitchell ms450's a Lucero acoustic and a Epiphone Les Paul traditional pro..... I just love them so much they're just gorgeous to the eyes and feel great with amazing tone !!!!! Lol anyway your a cool chick ❤❤❤❤
No offense I would have put 2 wooden stringers down thru the crack. Yes I work on guitars and there is a thousand different ways to fix them. They’re all different. But it did look really nice afterwards. Great job
"Mint condition, case kept, played only once"
Truss rod in perfect condition
Vintage . Relic 😂😂😂😂hahahahahhahaha
“Hate to get rid of it..”
I was thinking same thing lol
😂 I always make sure the neck is straight, luckily even my 23 year old shecter 7 string had a perfect neck, and I ordered it on eBay in high school
Wood grain has left the chat
Structural integrity left the chat
Hey cmon it look nice Even without The grain
Came here to say this
@@hafidz007it actually makes it stronger then before believe it or not
very sad
An original Gibson self healing neck. No glue or screws necessary!
Amazing...
r&d is getting some crazy inventions lately

There’s very clearly glue in the crack 😫
I’ve been at this 35+ years and can’t do it this well. That is tight and clean, perfect match and great buff. Nice work.
Looks nice, but before you can. See the wood grain, after you paint it. It will be a solid color
Agreed. But a working guitar again!
Yeah I'd rather still see the grain even if the crack is visible. Shows character
@@CaptainZuurpruimtruss rod???
Thats prolly the strongest part of the guitar now! Great work! Like it never happend
I Love Gibson Les Pauls and am grateful that a young person can keep them going into the next generations
Tanya, your is world class, your videos are mesmerizing, and the notes are concise and instructive. Thank you.
This is a beautiful Ibanez acoustic, reborn again , great work !
You brought this guitar back to life. Great job！❤
A woman the really works and have something to present instead keep talking rubbish about relationship and men. Wel done I'm impressed.
The stuff of nightmares... *shudders* GREAT WORK!!!
Fantastic amount of TLC here great Job 👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏

Another fantastic repair Tanya!
You should have pegged it to join the head stock back to the neck .....over time just the string tension will curve it
👍🏼 💯
Did you notice how much glue is on the truss rod. One adjustment and the things gonna explode

Spline inlaying, Ms. Shpachuk. Something to consider for reinforcing those repairs. Great channel! Love your work. Keep the vids coming!

Wow, you are really good Tanya! Very impressive. I am also a guitar repair technician out of Windsor Ontario Canada.
What type of glue she using sir my acoustic also broke
Hi Tanya . You are truly a Wizard with Guitars . I hope you're doing well and staying safe . 🎸
Amazing. This level of quality is crazy. Very impressed !
😂😂🤣
🎸👍🏼♥️🔥
The quality is that of horse shit ahabaha
WOW!!! I am so amazed by that repair! I’ve seen a few repairs on headstocks (I’m an SG guy) but I’ve never seen a repair that looked so clean.
These are easy repairs. This one was done very well
Beautiful craft work✌️👏🏻👏🏻
She'd never throw it away through her clean window, my dear Shed. Namastè.

Wood glue is actually stronger than wood itself. Glue two pieces together and they'll snap anywhere else before the glued joint snaps
That was a clean break with a steep angle and a ton of gluing surface. If it was more straight up and down and more of an end grain to end grain joint, then you'd need to spline it. For this, no it's not necessary
Nice it’s gonna sound even better now! They always do!

Nice work. If i had one break id take it to your shop.
Lovely, very talented hands. Great job.

Pretty sure that guitar will sound 100 times better now...guitars with broken headstock repairs sound amazing! 👍
This almost makes me want to break one of mine just to watch you do your magic. I wouldn't, but ALMOST.
Wow Stella job! You are a master of your craft.
Incredible work
Awesome work 🎉

Excelente trabajo,, pero porque no le pusiste refuerzos?? Es suficientemente solo con el pegamento??
Un trabajo impecable !😂👍
You have incredible artistry and skill. I am inspired and learning so much from you. Thank you.
Yeah, youre learning how NOT to repair a headstock!

Me encanta como trabaja esta mujer. 👏👏👏
Omg I have a 62 Gibson les Paul jr that needs this 🙏🏻
Is it true that broken neck yields an improved tone? Dude from A Perfect Circle plays a wonky Gibson, and some others I cannot recall the names.
YOU CAN FIX THAT?!?!?!?!
I thought they dead when it was like that!!! (P.s. I liked it without the spray paint better).
Looks great!
Gran lavoro da certosino

Lively work

Splines aren't the easiest to do, but they are the permanent repair. Thanks
No spline? Pretty confidant/brave. Nice reconditioning.
great repair. especialy hiding the break. The sandpaper was like nails on a chalk board though.
Wow - nice work.
Nice job. And the moral of the story is, never ever leave a guitar leaning on a wall, table, whatever. Just don't.
It will look nice up on the wall.
Play it
like most gibsons
That's friggin' amazing 😮
This is art
😂😂 just shitty repair ^^
I had 2 les Paul type guitars break in this exact place,they are known for it .
Yeah i had one too, a LP Studio Epiphone. Color wine, such a beautifil ❤ but, headstock broke on the same point 😞
I don't think I've ever seen a Fender with a broken headstock!
Nice work.
Excellent work
I just did this on a big body I found I glued it and brass screwed it,It sounds deeper than my small body I got from Thrift Shop 😂🎉
