📚 Description: Today we review the Gibson Jimi Hendrix 1967 Gibson SG Custom. This guitar is actually REALLY good! I love the neck and the '68 pickups sound really good... but realistically, it is probably too expensive to use as a player. The aging job was completely botched on this example though - it is rather shameful to be honest. Instead of lightly grazing the top to create the checks, they gouged all the way into the body which just looks bad in my opinion. Gibson still needs to work on relics. Cosmetics aside... I love it!

One the best. Keep doing what your doing. Utilize that screen though!
I have a real deal 1961 custom was white now yellow 😂
The pickups sound fantastic!! I could get on board buying them retail if they’re issued.
Great Review and Demo work Sir, Thank You.
Also, a Shout-Out of thanks to Mr. Nichols for the demo, outstanding.
As for the aging, I've seen more than a few real '60s Gibson with the Polaris White that looked very similar to your aged example.
They're all a little different (real and relic), some of the vintage guitars I've handled made me think the finish was going to chip off in large flakes.
Something about the solid colored finish, they typically seem much thicker than a traditional transparent finish you'd typically find on a burst!
Just saying.
Ya, that just looks stupid...I mean, who wants to buy a guitar that is destroyed by some dude with a razor blade...its not real its a poser guitar...all aging is ridiculous.
I own the original broom that Jimi played before his Dad bought him his first guitar- $ 4999 + shipping
Do the bristles have low action?
@@PlayWithYourThumb no they vary
Is there finish checking on the handle??? 🤘🤘
@@monsterkxf No, over the years the handle has had to be replaced several times and due to wear and tear it's also had a dozen new heads put on.
But apart from that it's all original. (© John Sullivan)
@@spodokomodo1644 OMG LMAO!! 🤘🤘
*Trogley:* You should only ever so lightly touch the vibrato bar..
*Jared:* "Hold my beer!"... Blues.. *ERUPTION!* ...Blues...
LMFAO!!
Look up the live versions of David Bowie's "Fashion" Gerry Leonard, who was the guitarist he had at the time was using a genuine Sixties SG Custom and was going all Robert Fripp with its whammy bar.
No problem whatsoever and it's all down to properly setting the thing up.
@@RastaSaiyaman I watched the '02 rendition....Gerry is on a black SG / white guard / 3×p'ups, and he gives the vibrola a bash..! Is that the one you meant??
@@lueymeteora1410 Yup, although the 2003 version with Damon Albarn is even better.
When you’re in the moment you can’t worry about tuning or breaking a string
That's not finish checking... that's the Limited Edition Official 2021 Jimi Hendrix Washboard.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh shit
Hard to believe we have a ten thousand dollar guitar whose builder thought, "Should I smooth out these routs and make it look professional? Nah. This is good enough."
Unless the original production run also got special care and attention to clean up the cavities (unlikely), then it wouldn't be a period-correct replica to lavish this one with undue care either.
(And I don't "get" the whole fake relic/aging thing ... but fleecing collectors for pseudo replicas doesn't harm me either)
I cannot think of a single thing on a guitar that could possibly matter less than the smoothness of the cavity routs.
That's how I can tell a player apart from someone who just buys guitars to look at them. If they care about stuff like that XD
@@HeelBJC a player is never going to pay 10 grand for a guitar, so yeah collectors are the people who are gonna talk about it.
@TheMichiganfan97
I'm sure you don't mean to be dismissive or jump to conclusions, but your comment kind of bothered me. I am a player. I would never (be able to or want to) buy a $10,000.00 instrument - especially not one artificially "aged" with razorblades. But my point about the rout: there's something to be said about craft, about caring about one's work, whether that craft is making music or making instruments. And if you're charging ten grand for an instrument, well, do the job right. Make your routs clean. Take pride in your work - even when that work won't be seen by most people. I know a handful of luthiers, and when they work on my instruments, they take care in what they do. Just watch twoodfrd's account you'll get a sense of what I'm saying. (Link below)
I'm sure you're a cool person and, again, that you didn't mean to come off as rude or jump to conclusions. I'm a player; I'm not a collector. I maintain my instruments - none of which are very expensive. I have a Bass VI, a Precision I bought new in the late 80s (and on which a luthier put a nice fretless ebony fingerboard about a year after I bought it), a Carvin LB6 I bought new in the late 90s, and a cheap Ibanez TMB100 I purchased last summer. I'm not your enemy, not some collector who cares more about how an instrument looks than how it plays. And I don't want to argue with you or get into a flame war. I just wanted to explain myself. Craftsmanship matters - and it especially matters when you're a giant corporation charging ten thousand dollars for "signature" guitar based on an instrument Hendrix played on TV one time. We're on the same side, I'd think. It's Gibson that's turning the instruments we love into museum pieces for the wealthy to gawk at. And too often they do it with the attention to detail a small-time luthier would be embarrassed by.
Take care.

Sorry shady crap all around 🤔
Gibson should have a special run of historic SGs, that have pre-broken headstocks, but then repaired with splines.🤣
😆😆
Lol - if you can get them to do it, don't be surprised if it's a huge seller with players - not collectors - players. There's a lot of players out there who don't feel comfortable with a Gibson unless it's got a headstock repair. Contrary to what Trogly says, a repaired break is not a weak spot. Quite the opposite, it's now probably the strongest spot on the neck. If anything, it'll be problematic as it will shift the next break further up the neck (in most cases, that will be into the face of the headstock, into the tuning machines.)
Anyway, a lot of players, if they have 3 identical Gibsons from which to choose and 1 is clean and unbroken, 1 has a severe but professionally and almost impossible to see repair, & the last is the same but with the addition of splines, they'll snatch that spline job in a heartbeat.
A well done, professional spline repair will increase the strength of that neck & decrease the potential for future breaks to where many players I know prefer them.
@@dank8865 I was offered a choice of Epi LP's in a recent trade. A 59 reissue, and a Tommy Thayer "white lightning". The lightning has a headstock repair, I knew the guy was having a hard time selling it. Screw it! Let's run with the Lightning! I thiugh I heard somewhere that repairs are stronger, and I'm just a player. No money, no class, I just manipulate vibrations on a guit-box, love it.
gibsons break because people are clumsy. get a good case and dont wall hang it or put it on a stand if youre scared
The back of that guitar looks like the top of Homer Simpson’s head. lol
They totally overdid it on the finish checking. Ugly
Agreed
Totally agree, oh and for a preimum? No. They really need to start calling it trashing. Any pete townshend models up?
Awful for the price. Murphy Labs should be ashamed at letting that go out looking like that.
It really looks more like stretch marks now
I completely agree... WAY too much and way too obviously done with a razor blade. I’ve got a 69 SG that is finish-checked to hell and it’s not in any way like that.
Ahh the Hendrix SG... I gotta say, it would be great if they actually made it true to 67 specs. It can be priced whatever they want, but the fact they just used a generic early 60s RI body and joint is a big letdown. That is the WRONG type of joint. A true 67, including his original, has a bigger joint that extends to the 19th fret. It's simply an insult to SG fans to call it a 67 spec.
For that price they could have at least attempted to replicate the guitar properly.
Yes I think the horns were deeper too in that era
Yep. 100% its just a 61 Custom re purposed to make more money. I hate this guitar so much.
It’s stupid that they didn’t do the neck joint right. Took a look at fairly modern pictures of the Hendrix sg. No way the checking is so deep and dominant.
Gibson USA should do a 3 pickup late 60s, with a custom layout.
.
I completely agree with you. Not everybody knows this. Well done
That's what Gibson always does. In 10 years they'll release another one as "true historic vintage edition" claiming to have all details 100% correct that time...but then it won't.
10,000 for a relic’d guitar is more than I can ever pay . But it’s pretty cool
With 10k, i would buy something thats vintage with a story behind it, im a little different than most people in that i like late 60s and 70s guitars even though there looked down upon with 10k you can buy a strat from the late 60s thats all original and is a peice of histroy
A relic reproduction of a guitar Jimi didn't even like for 10 grand. Nope.
I still don't understand the relic scheme you want a relic do it the old fashioned way love the hell out of the instrument carry it everywhere with you play it all day everyday
@@davidrosenzweig1380 exactly!! 10 grand for a guitar that's beat to shit and never been plugged in!!! Hell no!!! People just want to cash in on everything,,, Eddie Van Halens Frankenstein guitar cost him less than$150 to build,,the body and neck were seconds he bought from warmouth guitars,,and these so called " RELICS" are going for 75 grand!!! The only thing that these ridiculous guitars have in common w Eddie's guitar is the 1971 quarter screwed to the body to keep the bridge from sliding forward!! Absolutely ridiculous!!!!!
A feel confident in saying that at least $2500 are going right to the estate and no where near Gibson.
Oh man, I LOVE Jared's playing technique
He is awesome 🤘🏻
I think most Hendrix fans will agree that the SG is a small, but vital part of Hendrix lore. It deserves recognition. Many Americans saw him play for the first time on the Dick Cavett show with that SG.
It’s the guitar that inspired a lifetime obsession with guitar 🎸. My dad showing me this on reruns of the Cavet show. Machine Gun at 6yrs old was life changing. I’ll never be able to afford this but man if I could i would.
GOD that finish aging. . looks like a backyard Relic.
Ok.... let's think about this logically for just a minute.... when Jimi bought the guitar it was BRAND NEW!!!! WHY IN THE HELL WOULD YOU MAKE IT A RELIC IF IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE A "REPLICA"????....HE NEVER PLAYED IT WHEN IT LOOKED LIKE THAT!!!.... some light aging ( such as pick scratches and some wear on the pickup covers and on the bridge where his sweat may have worn off a bit of the plating) would have sufficed....am I wrong on this??!!!...
TBoys Rock'n'roll... I totally agree! If money was no object and I could buy one of these I would rather have it look like it looked brand new not all cracked and beat up looking. I don't get that part either. Other than that it's a bitchin' guitar!
@@jonathanhudak2059 yes!!! It's one of the coolest guitars Gibson ever designed... I always wanted one... I will admit I like them better in the original white as opposed to this yellow/cream.... looks a little more classy...
It's probably what the original looks/would look like today which would kinda make sense; no real wear, just age checking (maybe the guitar spent the last 50 years in Canada...) and plating. Still looks kinda bad tho.
TBoys Rock'n'roll... Right it sure was one of their best looking guitars! To me it was my favorite. I bought a brand new SG Custom in 1998, off white, gold hardware, triple pickups for about $1600 or so. And to think I sold it to help finance an engagement ring and wedding that never happened....ughghgh! I think the white over time yellows with age so perhaps that's the look Gibson is going for.
@@jonathanhudak2059 I agree....but I really think that they should have made the guitar the way it looked when Jimi played it...and that 10,000 dollar price tag is ridiculous....agree?
Trogly's in the HOUSE!!!
“I hate to dwell on this…”. I would be livid if I had spent $1,000 on a guitar in that condition much less $10,000
The jam at the end was amazing
Theres an 81 rickenbacker with that level of finish checking on reverb right now. You should do more rickenbackers btw, id love to see more acurate and indepth representation of rickenbacker on youtube.
I bet you're talking about this one
reverb.com/item/37732556-1981-rickenbacker-4001-fireglow-w-chrome-pickup-cover-org-hsc?_aid=growsumo&gs_partner=Trogly
I second that
@@Trog yep lmao
@@Trog Check out the serial number.
@@PlayWithYourThumb woah thats gotta be worth atleast something.
Honestly my dream guitar. Not even just the Hendrix model. I literally dream about having an SG like this in my hands...ugh. The most beautiful guitar ever made in my opinion.
Same, dream guitar for me has always been a 68 sg with p90s instead of the humbuckers and a bigsby.
@@handwriting8804 THAT WOULD BE SICK!!!! I'm just a massive fan of SG's man.
A store near me had a 64, same colour, no vibrola. 12,000 they wanted for it. I was bold and asked if I could take it for a spin. They said sure to my surprise. It was gorgeous.
LandonWolfe... Me too I agree, to me the most prettiest guitar ever made! I bought a brand new triple pickup SG custom in this yellowy off white color back in 1998, it was about $1,600 back then and I think it was slightly discounted. Beautiful guitar. No vibrola or anything but the closest you could get to owning an original looking SG custom for a lot less money than an original. Man I would have never sold it! I love the Gibson SG and have 3 altogether
Sounds great! I'm very glad Austin also did a demo.
An extremely rare opportunity to hear JJN use more than 1 pickup- what an absolute treat.
Those are just the sexiest guitars to me. I don’t know what it is but that white just does it for me
Oh, and thanks for the coverage on this guitar!
I'm blown away by the sound of this masterpiece. 2 words... "MY GOD!" Love the way Jared James played... just joined his channel. Look forward to watching more of him.
lmao i love your demo playing Trog. good review as always mate
Wow on the playing demo!!
Great review!
That playing demo is rad!
Really nice tone demonstration!
While they're busy buying companies, they should pick up one that knows how to relic.
Or just stop with it altogether? I mean, how about we just wait until the guitars age naturally? Makes one wonder what these relic'ed guitars will look like after 20, 30, or even 40 years. I can't imagine that slicing through the paint with a razor blade will do much for the finish's longevity.
I’ve been lucky enough to see the real deal at Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square, this is an awful finish job. The finish checking is bad enough, but the finish did not need to turn to banana yellow. The original’s finish is minimally discoloured, not at all by this much. Shameful.
It just seems like gibsons ‘relic’ aren’t meant to look legit but they are trying make their own art design hahahaha . I saw the real one and I completely agree with u haha
the original is more ivory toned, no? i feel like youre right it's most def not that deep bananna creme color.
Great vidio as usual. Man I love this channel. I'd jones so bad without it .thanx again buddy
I really liked the playing Demo. Great job!
i wish they would stop relicing these guitars and just have them leaving the factory all shiny and not crummy. Who is asking for these half assed relics?
People with $10,000 to spend on a guitar they aren't going to play.
@Bogey trogly isn't a collector and he himself has demonstrated to only like really clean guitars.
@@midnite_in_november I think that he is saying that because if a company gets away with charging 10k dollars and have a really bad relic job and not even the correct specs they will just keep doing it
@@gerardosajidgamezsanchez6962 Nah, they're just on a learning curve, I would say.
It's incredibly pessimistic to think Gibson just don't give a fawk!
@Bogey he doesn't sell guitars at twice the price, he has explained before that he doesn't really gain al that much money because of the time spent on the videos and a lot of the time the guitars he sells are at fair prices. Trogly is a dealer that just has a passion for preserving guitars, that's why he documents them.
I love all the talk about checking, the vibrato not being the best, whether Jimi played an SG or not...and then Jared picks the thing up and plays the heck out of it vibrato and all. Really shows how focus too much on the guitar specs and forget to just play the damn thing and focus on honing our guitar skills
Nice one! 🙏🏻Thanx loved the vid! Jared kills it again...mr.goldfingers 👍
Trogly always coming through with content for when I have insomnia.
can we get a full review of that new bulb?
There would be a signature shoe shine box if they had a picture of Hendrix with one.
Beautiful painting!
Love the sound of those pickups
Yeesh I agree with you Austin. I love the late 60s sg customs (moreso to look at as I always felt the middle pickup gets in the way) but man the aging craze has gone too far
Serial number 069... nice.
if only 6 was 9.
Man I wish it was 0350365
Great review. Thank you.
He made that SG burn 🔥. Well done.
The finish checking sounds like a damn washboard.
You could probably shred cheese on that thing
@@eliasmsv3156 Also an effective option to sand down large amounts of wood quickly.
Oh my god it does...
Maybe that's what they were going for.
@@cyberbully7718 maybe so...
Cool vid
Holy Cow that thing sounds amazing !
Man, a tear came into my eye when I saw the case lid in that blue kimono finish. It immediately reminded me of the video with Jimmy playing Machine Gun...
I really like the color combo and hardware aging. That checking though... it looks like it was done with a dull chisel.
It was.
Are you referring to the guitar or Jareds hair ? 😀
Maybe they checked the finish on a crazy weather day? That looks rough. Always on the fence with factory aging/distressing.
Great tone and playability!
Trogly + Jared = Kickass demo
I’d feel so depressed if I spent 10 grand on a guitar
unless its a froggy bottom acoustic
I think I would have liked to have spent 10G on the job bonanamasa LP custom I played. It was priced at $3500. The finest guiear I have ever played bar none and I played all the top teir once a week.
Great playing demo
that neck pickup is amazing!!
I'd want em to take it back. That "relicing" has gone too far. That aint cracking. Thats Grand Canyon like Cuts
Jared rips! He's got a new subscriber
I love those SGs with the large pick guard
JJ Nichols rocks!!!!! I would love to know what fuzz he was using. Of course, he could make anything sound great. Keep using him for your demos Trogly, it's a good way for people like me who never heard of him to see him and these instruments really shine!
Nice light
Cool☠️☠️☠️👍🏼
Flat out gorgeous love this
Jared is the coolest great guest!!
The price tag is obscene....
Hendrix would have played the hell out of a Hello Kitty if given enough acid. Ps I LOVE my little Epi LP
Nice! Love Jared!
nice playing demo!
I've never understood the relic-ing craze. The whole point about old guitars is how they play, not how they look! Relic-ing is as shallow as you can get in the guitar world.
Good point. I think the relicing is or could be used into deceiving the mind, because it looks old/checking/aging/... it also plays and sounds old. And even though it isn't, you'll be tricked into it is.
I have a relic’d custom shop strat and it is by far the best new guitar I’ve ever played. The key to me is the relicd guitars, when done right, play like they are broken in. The neck is sanded and the fretboard rounded, which makes it incredibly comfortable to play. I love it.
That being said, Gibson, despite the fact I love a lot of their guitars, is awful at relicing. This SG looks terrible. Plus, it is a signature guitar that was played by the artist when it was new, so it should not be relic’d. If the artists guitar was worn, relicing to match would make sense, but that is not the case here
@@bechela1 There's a huge difference between a new guitar that's set up well, and an old guitar that's had years for the woods to settle and be played in.
@@terrypussypower
I have to agree with Andrew. I’ve played vintage Fenders from the 50s and 60s and Fender Custom Shop Relics feel almost identical and sound very similar. Personally, the Mexican made Fender Road Worns are close enough for me and a lot more affordable than either Custom Shop or vintage.
@@charlesbolton8471 Oh, I'm sure they do. But they sound exactly like the non relic-ed examples.
Relic-ing is just cosmetic. It doesn't affect the wood and the construction of the instrument one iota.
Makes me wonder if Hendrix had a bone nut recut for his Custom. I'd imagine so.
Given the timeframe of the one time he used the thing if he had it would have been done by Lemmy. Who according to Noel Redding could convert a Strat in under half an hour for Jimi.
Great playing by JJN!
I love sgs with the large pickguard and the original 61 neck joint. You don't see them very often.
Yeah. Historically, they didn't really exist back then, as the change to the later joint happened before they introduced the batwing. This one is technically a poorly made reproduction (spec wise) - the original has the normal 67 joint - but yeah I love the earlier joint for playability!
Two subjects that seem to divide the guitar playing community: signature guitars and relic-ing - here's both 'controversial' subjects in one instrument.
As for me, I like signature guitars but I'm not keen on the relic'd look - but each to their own.
I don’t see how people think it’s acceptable for Gibson to make crappy relics and sell them for 5 figures. I don’t see why people keep buying them if the relic job is so terrible. It’s pointless.
Dhgate has it for 400😆
All you gotta do is not to buy it. That's the beauty of it... No one is forcing anyone.
I hate them too. But as long as people want to buy them I think it’s fine if Gibson wants to keep making them.
Not all of us like relic finishes.
@@jfinester And this guitar has been made for those who do.
Faaaaark! Jarrod was killing it!! 🤘🏻🤘🏻🤘🏻
Interesting stuff. I've never been a fan of SG's and now I've seen two that I really would love to play on.... UGH
Got here asap, the guitar looks beautiful
I don’t get it. Even when my guitars are fifty years old I’ll still want them to look new. Hopefully this fad will end soon.
Doctor Biobrain, I agree! 👍
Depends for me. If the relic is done tactfully (unlike this sliced up SG) then sure! But if it's horribly done, no
Like or dislike the “Fad” has been an ongoing craze for well over 20 years..and it’s more popular than ever according to sales.. but again .. it’s still like or dislike.. if your guitar has a poly finish no need to ever worry about checking, that paint is THICK...if it’s a Nitro.. mmmm..maybe, but the ingredients in that are way different than what they used in the 50’-60’’s.. I can take them or leave them
lol same
I kinda love that finish checking as long as it's like safe lol
cool guest!!
Buying a guitar that's been checked or aged to me is like kids paying big bucks for already worn out clothes. 😟
Maybe Gibson should move to the cool spray method, but hey, that's change and might be too much for the elitists.
maybe a mixture of the two techniques
Great Tone!
great sounding guitar !
Hi Trogly great video as usual!!!! Keep up the great work. Question have you ever checked out Gittler Guitars? They look like a fish bone and they’re made out of titanium. They cost about US$8000. It’s a cool quirky guitar! Take care 😀😀
This is guitar totally looking nice but totally expensive
Jared is a beast! Love his playing style
Thank you! 🤘🏼

You can see the original SG laying on a Marshall plexi head on the Woodstock stage behind Hendrix! So that SG made it to Woodstock and was ready as backup that day. You can also hear its tell-tale nasally middle position pickup sound on the opening riff (and throughout) the studio version of 'Freedom'.
Trogly I must compliment you as I’ve watched your content for 5+ years. Your playing improves obviously too. Your pal Jared smokes at his thing. Jeffrey the old pro
Personally I really don't understand fake aging stuff, if I get a brand new guitar I'd want it to look new. It's like getting fake pecs 'cause you want the look without earning it.
I like the worn necks at the back.. can’t anymore even imagine playing a slippy thich laquor neck
Another terrible aging job by Gibson. It always looks so tacky. I feel like I could do better in my garage. Fender is definitely the king of the relic.
You probably could with a hair dryer and a can of compressed air.
Jared got some sweet tones in the hands.
that style/look SG just blasted me first time i saw it. like POW. (i usually didn't look to see what the bands i liked were actually using. only got into guitars more recently. but this is one that was an insta-fav.) i need it in a lower $ model.... like if epiphone makes one or some other knockoff is avail.
I cant believe the Price? Someone Plz Explain?
WTF Is Gibson Smoking?!?!
It’s instantly a collection piece. I don’t get how people don’t understand that. It’s a complete collectors item for the ultimate Hendrix fans. It’s not a guitar for the average joe.
Smoking on some crack
This needs a Epiphone version lol..
Beautiful guitar and my favorite SG variant a 1960s triple pickup Custom model! Love how it sounded in both your guys' hands! I just wish they wouldn't have aged it's so much. I could do without all of the finish checking...way too much of that. If I could afford a guitar like this I would rather have it look brand new. But anyway excellent video, thanks Trogly!
Hendrix tuned a 1/2 step down also. It’ll lighten up on the tension and help keep it in tune.
