    Save the Nibs? Did you mention what kind of Frets your are putting in?

  • @jrumiano
    @jrumiano Před dnem

    You had the finger board off, that would have been the ideal time to install frets and bind the neck. A much easier way to build the fingerboard, as well as making binding fret end nibs. BTW, that's the way them make them at the factory.

    In 2016 the pickguard should have 2 5/16 pickup spacing it gets changed every few years.. Go figure Gibson has been saying they're the closest replica ever made since 1999 and yet it's different every single year and not smart people still hand over $5,000-$7,000 thinking they're getting the best replica ever made until the next year rolls around and a new even more accurate reissue comes out.. It's a joke! Gibson is the shadiest guitar company on earth, they make chna Chibson builders look like saints... A 1999 r9 pickguard won't fit a 2004,A 2004 pg won't fit a 2016,a 2016 will fit a 2024 but not perfectly.. And cream tone plastic is accurate, Gibson gets the color wrong ..In 1959 it was a bone white (that's the reason they called paf double whites) cream came around much later.. The cream was a result of companies looking at old aged plastic and trying to mimic the color, but originally it was almost a perfect white and because the plastic (vinyl and butyrate) ages on the inside and outside at the same time there's no way to accurately make a perfect replica of the color.. Even if we cut a 59 M69 ring in half we wouldn't see a perfect representation of the color because they age all the way through.. However, through pictures that just recently been found of 52-60 lp's and so on we can see it's actually a bone white color and not cream and Gibson as well as others have gotten it wrong the whole time... Sorry for the long reply..

    Since you were doing binding and frets, why not do it old school with binding over the fret ends…?

    It probably needs that brass for sustain. I made a walnut guitar body to surprise my Master Luthier. Upon seeing it he said, “That;s real nice Tony but it’s dead”. I said what do you mean. He said, “ walnut’s not a resonant wood. You never see guitars made out of it because it’s dead as rubber! It won’t have any sustain. He was right. He;d done it for 50 years. His pine bodied Teles were legendary around Shreveport Louisiana. Al Collinsworth.

    • @Gorillaguitartech
      @Gorillaguitartech Před 3 dny

      I don't believe in "tone wood" when it comes to electric guitars but walnut is definitely NOT a great choice for guitars. It's soft and doesn't like to hold glue. Being softer, I can see how it would be less resonant in general though. Thanks for watching!! 🤘

    You do great work and love this series. I bought this guitar from a friend that I was in a band with, he bought it at Guitar Indianapolis and I owned it for about 14 years, the neck originally was bare wood on the back with a red stinger on back of the headstock like Zach Wild, I had my guitar tech to stain and lacquer the back and match it up, I used it for my Ace Frehley gig that I used to do. The neck was a mystery and didn't think the guitar would be worth much so I had the middle pickup routed. But now that you have been taking the neck apart, I do think it was an acoustic neck from previous comments.

    • @Gorillaguitartech

    You said you used to work for Agile so... Is the chibson of any worse or better overall quality and value compared to the Agile LP looking thing?

    • @Gorillaguitartech
      @Gorillaguitartech Před 7 dny

      They were very close. I have played and set up literally hundreds of Agile guitars and most of the time, they were very nice and could be played straight out of the box. I have only played two of these guitars from this manufacturer and they both could use a setup and a fret leveling. Nothing major. It's hard to say if the next one will be good or not. As far as being close to a real Gibson? You would definitely fool the average person from stage.

    • @Trainskitsetc
      @Trainskitsetc Před 7 dny

    The 3 Mimi toggles work in this order the closest to the chicken head knob is the phaser ( pickup selector has to be in the middle position) the other 2 are as follows middle is coil tap for neck pup and the one closest to the tone knob is the coil tap for the bridge pup. Plus all the electronics are passive until you flip the mini toggle on for the booster and the chicken head is a 5 position tone filter

    How come is it that I have guitars from the 60's and 70's, the truss rods of which I've never had to touch, I've only made minor adjustments to, play perfectly well with low, comfy action and were not expensive guitars to begin with and this is a 7 year old Gibson signature model that required massive repairs? Can Agnesi explain that?
