I've just had that exact same thing happen to me. Put it in the case in one piece, took it out the case in two pieces. No idea what happened, the case only travelled from one side of the room to the other.

My Les Paul has broken, exactly like this. Just sat in the case and it cracked. :(

Fantastic, I have a similar issue, I'll keep you posted:)

You are an artist!

Can you do my 1975 tele custom, please? Haha.

Do you have to install splints , no matter what kind of break , any other options?

Excellent repair!

Easy, use a torx head just a bit bigger then the nut hex diameter tap it in so the torx head jams into the hex head and adjust, then wiggle out

Why do Fender make truss rod nuts out of toffee????

What kind of glue it is ?

There is no such thing as a bad Gibson only bad Gibson owners. Gibsons don’t drop themselves. I’ve never had one spontaneously explode. People are Idiots

Brilliant a true craftsman

Votre travail est remarquable. Si je me permets une observation, sans conséquence sur votre excellent ouvrage, vous avez insisté un peu trop sur le sablage et le polissage de la face en haut en decolorant assez visiblement la partie basse de la G de Gibson.

Cool

Whats the cost?

Wow 😱 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻🙋🏻‍♂️🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷🇧🇷

this bs will never happen with a fender 😴😴😴😴

Does this happen often with Les Pauls?

Great work! I hope I'm not being redundant. What glue did you use on this repair and why did you switch from Titebond? Thanks

Spectacular work on one of the more difficult electric guitar repairs. Always a good idea to video these repairs as there's a real possibility the rod might snap or break at the anchor weld. See also Ted Woodford's video "American Strat Rides the Lightning" where he uses electrical heating to loosen the walnut plug.

Looks like a chinese serial number its probably poly not lacquer

Awesome job! Which glue did you use?

7:45 Так не правильно! Надо не стучать, а давить сразу с четырёх сторон. Всё просто) 10:35 спасибо, что услышал меня заранее) Уже лучше! Так держать! Моя несдержанность меня снова подводит( Простите!

BEAUTIFUL job.

That's insane. Shame on Fender. When I first discovered that Fender painted over frets I decided I would never buy another guitar from a company that would do such a thing. And I haven't since. Even though I prefer rosewood, but it's a matter of principle.

Late to the party. Beautiful work sir. My question is how many hours labor do you feel you have in this amazing repair?? Cheers

Is EVO Gold fretwire mainly used on electric guitars? Because I was debating on having it used as a re-fret on my acoustic- just later on, at a future date.

Nice video. It seems like you are using a router bit with bearing on top to copy the jig 5:26. I am unable to find such a bit for a Dremel. Where did you buy this router bit?

I'm doing my first evenr fret replacement and I went with stainless steel, it was taking forever to file the ends and I came searching to see if I was doing something wrong. Glad to see it's not me 😊 the frets I bought did say it's not recommended for beginners but I didn't listen 😊 after 2 evenings of work, I moved to crowning and I can tell this will take couple more evenings. Let's hope it will be playable in the end. This is my learning experience and I am using a cheap guitar

What was the thickness of the ceder after planing?

What is that metal circle on the bottom of the heel of the neck? My Dean has the same metal circle and there is a grub screw in the back plate that will hit it. I assume it's for adjusting the neck. Other guitars I have do not have that grub screw or the metal plug in the neck heel.

Great work, glad to see that the guitar repaired and not thrown away........

If the player does not want to keep the old fretboard at all, how about use a Japanese saw or a multi-tool to cut all the way through and then plane the neck? I guess it is easier than struggling with removing the layer of glue.

Nice job, as per your usual. I've subbed to many Channels I rarely get to your videos until they're a month or 2 old. Any way, great job!!!!

Do you need to worry about glue getting down in the truss rod area?

Luthiers gotta love CBS necks. 2 tons of polyurethane.. They basically cocooned their guitars back then.

NINETY SIX dollars for that StuMac fret kisser. Their stuff must have some gold content or something. Also, what about nut height?

One thing i never do is leveling SS frets up and down the board.But side to side. That is, if you are using sandpaper only. Since you are using a diamond stone, it might not get the rough top. For anyone leveling with sandpaper beam, always for side to side. not up and down. Or else you will spend many hours sanding away those burs on top.SS needs to be 99% smooth if not it will feel raspy to bend on. But totally worth to check high frets and try and hammer down those tall ones. The less leveling the better.

Work of art that repair

Awesome video. So good.

Thank you for another wonderful video. May I ask; why not try to slide the frets out the other way, as in tapping from the treble side? You mentioned they were slid in from the bass side so I would think they would slide back out from there they came more easily then continuing them out on the treble side? Perhaps there’s a reason. All the best from Canada!

A good v ideo but you relly must stop tuttung!!

How does this happen??

I think you are actually making a mistake hiding the repair on the back of the neck. If I had a repair that good on my PL I would want to show it off. Great work, a pleasure to watch.

идеально!

My toxic trait is thinking that after I watched this I should go try this on my strat… having none of the tools or experience.

What a great job. You are very talented.

Amazing work, a pleasure to watch ... 🙂

Excellent work as always.
