Nice bass! have a few

I don’t get why people put EMG’s in a Gibson Thunderbird. None of the Thunderbird replacements 😢they make come close to the TBird+ pickups. I get going with Lollars if you’re chasing different tone.

If you listen to Johnny Cash Luther Perkins my number one Guitar hero by the way used flatwounds and so do I because I love the way they feel and the way they sound I make my own custom set of pyramid flatwound usually they would be 11/48 I swap the 11s out for 9s the G of course is wound

I bought my Les Paul from a pawn shop. High E was contacting the bridge. Had been for so long that there is a small groove in the bridge. Not touching anymore. Thank you for your videos

Dave,I thought Musicians were here to feel the thickness of our skin!lol,Cheers!

Dave,sorry missed the live stream,isn't every week Pride week???lol,Cheers,nice to see Marge.

I return to this video regularly, great storytelling

Sad I had to miss sandwich hour. Down visiting and helping my 82 year old father.

Sounds nice

Nice reverb ad during the video

Play song

That sounds like you got a Canadian Park Jam

Hello to you Dave

Hold the phone! I just joined Dave on Patreon. This cheap bastard finally pulled the trigger.

Best looking piece of plywood I’ve ever seen.

I've been setting up instruments for 35 years and I never set intonation in playing position with no complaints. I never even heard about that until the internet craze happened. I love your videos exactly because they are not step by step how to. I'm a glad you are back.

Strats and teles are my faves, because of you I can repair and modify them to my hearts desire! Arigato sensei!

I'm 71 Dave and I had a pain stimulator put in my back years ago for the same problem. That was done after a boat load of shots burnt nerves and pain pills (I got off of the prescription pills myself). I know the feeling of having pain in the lower back (especially around L-5). It's a bitch. Hang in there brother. Hopefully they will get you straightened out soon. Word of advice that has been told to me; "Don't have back surgery".

Being an altar boy with those nasty assed priests was always a recurring nightmare for a small child ...those chibdons and fake fender strats were basically franken guitars from the factory....

It’s really funny to me just how popular these particular bc rich ironbirds have gotten since this video was released.

The chicken head looks like it’s supposed to be a veritone. Edit: I posted too soon. Lol

I did this very same thing to an Epiphone Firebird I purchased ( I went with one of those kits via Faber ) It all fit perfectly and the hardware was definitely far superior in comparison to the stuff Epi uses to keep costs down.... I'll be perfectly honest though here, the 'Tone' was certainly not that much of a change though for the moneys I burnt lol! The one thing that really made a considerably substantial difference was the 3-way switch though... the OEM switch just feels like trash heh. Would I do it again? No, I'd probably just solder in a new 3-way and call it good. PS ~ The flathead screws they use on the pickups are indeed a freaken joke lol..... I guess it's an effort to make it seem 'vintage' for the cork sniffers.

hi i have a Jap strat it dosent sound real great it keeps going out of tune notaion i think its called what can i do to make it sound 10 times better i thought of putting in the kinman pick ups anything else i can do to make it sound great

16:17 You're a magician, how did you get the bridge off with the screw still in?

Hashing out veritone switch wiring could be a pain. I do remember seeing a guy put that flavor of thing in a pedal enclosure a while back.

God Aye. ¨The More Often You Tweak - The Less It Needs Tweaking!! Cheers from Madrid.

that guitar intro is the same one used on vice grip garage.. which is a great channel too.. lol

That Chibson is a GSO!

Nice! Thank you!

Why not use a socket to adjust the truss rod ?

just buy a player Tele !

I bought a classic vibe Tele and loved it out of the box 📦 The pic-ups sounded great 😊

Won’t it remove the finish?

I have a 1991. I refinned it Fiesta red with matching headstock. have had it 20 years

Kevin Malone from the office is now a guitar tech?

I vote secret message!

Very good job Dave!

Side to side?

The Theseus' paradox...in Squire form 😊 I have a vintera 50s tele, i bought it because i loved the sound. I've spent a fair amount of time slapping myself whenever i've started looking at hand wound pickups for it 😂

Link to Part2..?

Would a 34" version of this be too unwieldy or Neck Heavy..?

Carbon Tax - 30% more??? That’ll save the planet !!! Yeah Canada, Yeah Turdeau!!!

Montrose rocks

19:16 to 19:19 wow, the tuning completely changes, compared to playing position, the neck cradle position makes the guitar go flat!!! This is proof positive! The neck rest you use is too high and gravity itself will pull on the height. Solved!

I enjoy the show, Dave keep it coming, thanks again Ken

Pure Italian plywood - priceless 😉 🎸

My old mum used to say, " old age doesn't by it's self". Just hit 72 and so far so good. Chins up lads.👍

I like to use nylon washers when I put in my socket. I paint my copper on all the way to socket out.

Indonesia is the HOT SPOT for guitar making right now, and they're making some fantastic guitars. Even China now is making some great guitars.

your thumps up button is missing :(
