So if the pickups are on quick-connects... and you're worried they've been swapped... Why not just swap them back?
In my experience if the guitar was being used on the road the quick connects are there in the event the guitar tech has to change a pickup it can be done quickly and then given back to the player. As you know your bigger bands usually have backup guitars but the player has his preferred guitar and will want it back as soon as possible.
Right on the money Philliph. Thatâs the exact purpose of the soldered end of quick connect pickups.
@@kevinwilson1124 yep pretty easy when you have several packs of new pickups with the quick connects already soldered on ready to go. Simply remove the broken pickup/pickups and plug the new one pickup/pickups in in less than 5 minutes. Canât do that when you have to de-solder and re-solder. In some cases Iâve seen it where the player wants to change their current pickups to a totally different set of pickups for a different sound while still utilizing the same guitar. Can be done over and over without putting a lot of heat into the Potts constantly which isnât good.
@@cataclysmicconverter yeah happens quit a bit with the bigger bands. As you probably know Oftentimes smaller/newer bands have a much smaller budget and only bring a few guitars and usually those are for different sets/songs.
Iâve seen up to 5 backups for a single guitar in some of the big name bands though. They all get pulled out restrung and tuned for every gig yet most of them never actually see a live gig.
@@cataclysmicconverter Right on lol didnât even think of that one. Good call! Yeah you are absolutely right player and tech both. Makes you really appreciate it when you get big enough and get a tech or two, at least for a while lol.
There was a time when the Scorpions were the biggest Rock band in the World. Quit a few years they sold like no other hard rock band!
Honestly, grandeillo wood is harder and heavier that rosewood of all kinds. That wood is closer to ebony in hardness and weight.
Denser, heavier, and harder.
True, the Custom Shop would be a phenomenal guitar if done up right. Problem would be that skyrocketed custom shop price tag. Hoping that they produce one for 2023 from the Gibson USA shop so it will not only be be a correct reissue, but will come with a more reasonable price tag, so that more fans could afford the model.
I love their acoustic guitars - Rudolf has an acoustic V and Mattias has an acoustic explorer shape.
I want them but they're custom and super expensive.
Release an ultra high end collectable Murphy labs relic custom shop version in 2024 so some lawyer can point to the thing hanging on the wall and say; âyeah; thatâs my Ravi Shanka v shaped sitar; yeah I think he was a Scorpio or somethingâŠâ.
I actually prefer the 70s rounded headstock
I'm not a particular fan of the Scorpions or of Flying V's for that matter, but this is a really cool guitar. I really think the fretboard looks great
I like the overall look and I like the sound. It actually seems pretty sonically Versatile, too
Yeah... most Flying V's are versatile. Just think about when they came out. It's not like they were intended for Thrash.
That guitar has me In Trance...
Scorpions were amazing everytime I saw them.
I take too much in the Saturday night đ”
In Trance my favorite scorpions album! Have seen them only twice in my life but just like you said they were fantastic every time!
I love it!!!
Pretty cool V. I don't mind the granadillo. It has a look similar to padauk.
Nice, doesnât the body & neck need to be absolutely horizontal to get an accurate measure of the headstock angle?
How to end the day on a happy note? With a Trogley video, but not only that, we have another Rudolf Schenker Flying V! I was hoping for a quick blast of Coast to Coast or The Zoo.
Coast to Coast is a good warm up song for my fingers that I like to play. Good call
For me in Italy his videos are the start of the day, theyâre just like coffee in the morning, I canât start a day without one at least đ
Now he has to buy a Duesenberg Schenker V too đ
Yeah I quite agree. I would like it if he would review one of the Heritage guitars they really are the only way buy a Modern day burst
Love it, love it, love it. You have this on reverb for over four grand, what would a clean one with no dings or bad blemishes with the original case sell for? This V has the best neck I have ever tried on a V, feels like a Jackson one in width at the nut and 12th fret. A real beauty.
I can't remember if you've made a video about the Les Paul classic custom? I'd like to see a video of that!
A 10" radius is rounder than a 12", not the other way around.
The added red color on the pickguard pulls in the reddish color of the fretboard, is why I believe that they did it. It ties it all together. At first, I was like, why didn't they stick with the black/white color scheme? I C Y, now.
The saturation of beyond is even that with which it is changed, which is, of course, nice
Trogly can you do the Gretsch Malcolm Young signature please?
Especially the new red jet version, seen quite a few of the beast
@@steveparish9210 I'd be down for him to do reviews of both versions
Given the choice I would take the red one! Such a cool guitar I wish trogly would do more reviews on Gretsch guitars
â@@jonathanhudak2059eh to me personally I prefer the single pickup version but maybe thats just me
I bought a Gibson Flying V Rudolf Schenker when they came out in 2013. The pickguard was black/white when the guitar was new, but the black discolored to a redish brown color. It was not like this 10 years ago! Nevertheless it's a great guitar.
This is so close to my 2015 Japanese Run Flying V. Same headstock shape, same neck height off the body, same AWESOME volute, same pickups (but not quick connect), and same fretboard.
Yeah, they're virtually identical. The neck profile on this one may be slightly thinner too.
Cool V Trogly! Michael Schenker is a bad ass guitar player, I especially love the stuff he did with UFO in the 1970s. This is a really cool find and it's in pretty nice shape as well. The red pickguard isn't my first choice I wish it would alternate black with white. But I wouldn't turn it down either, rock on!
Lol this is a Rudolph Schenker, Not Michael noob...
@Heinrich142 be nice! well I was just a brother away! đ
Wow, a GE fridge - Gibson colab!
I really look forward to your show every day!
Thanks for watching!
@@Trog Can you swap the quick-connect connectors to correct the pickup issue.
The switch is fine, the quick connects are attached to the wrong pickup leads.
Just swap the connections.
â@@cataclysmicconverterThat's how these came except for the pickups being reversed. That was either a factory screw up, or previous owner.
Hmmm... I just saw a Gibson, Rudolph Schenker fold out poster advertisement for sale on Ebay a day or two ago.
That model had a black and white (or an interpretation of black) as they got older the black turned brown. It has to do with the pickguard material.
It looks like, to get half the pickguard white and half black/brown or whatever color it is now, they used a clear plexiglass pickguard and painted the backside with it's color on each side and then sprayed white over that. The black/brown paint may have reacted to UV light and changed to what it is now.
Yes, I have this exact guitar purchased NOS from a music store in Santa Monica in 2016. The pick guard starts much blacker and becomes brownish red overtime. Itâs a mistake they made with the coloration.
For a moment there I thought you had bought a double bass to emulate freaking Paul Gilbert.
Great. Now I want an Italian black and white cookie and the stores are all closed. I need to invest in an emergency cookie vacuum container⊠đ
A fun fact on the pickgaurd color that im sure is going to cause trouble; There is no color Brown, its just a shade of Orange. Strictly speaking Brown is not a color.
Wow that fretboard is exactly how I like my rosewood to look. Going to have to look into a grenadilla board. Very nice!
If youâre into Les Pauls, the Signature T model from 2013 has a grenadilla fretboard.
Granadillo. Trogly doesn't know what he's talking about either. It's a very dense, hard, and heavy wood. You can find these same specs on a 2015 Gibson Flying V. They came in black, white, sunburst, and cherry. Closest thing you'll find to a 70's V.
It wouldn't be an episode until Austin felt a guitar with the back of his fingers!
Iâm glad youâre now doing the bit at the the end of your videos saying something like âif you like this video then you might like this oneâŠâ
Cheers from NZ đđžđ€
Custom shop 1-1 replica should be reserved for his brother!!
I like that Schenker V but I would have to stain the fretboard darker.
Nice one Trogly! Now just brings the original black and white from Michael (Who is the real mentor of the double colour scheme, NOT Rudolf).
Man, that off-center paint job would buuuug me đ
Reminds me of the black and white cookie. "Look to the cookie, Elaine."
I believe Rudolph's original had a black/ white pickguard. Black being on the white side of the guitar and white on the black side, or maybe I'm thinking of Michael's. đ€·
Michaelâ was the reverse color scheme of Rudolphâs: Black on top, White on bottom, matching pickguard.
â@@georgeprice4212 no. Michael was white on top and Black on botton wirh reversed pickguards. Check out One Night at the Budokan and you clearly see.
Michael's had the offset B&W guards. I believe the custom paint was done by the guys at Hamer around '80-'81. The color scheme emulates the V2 rocket. Rudolf was given his first sig model by Gibson in '85 with just the half and half B&W paint and no pickguard. Later models would have the guard but not offset like Michael's were. The last one seen here from '13 has the wine red/white pickguard. Michael uses Dean Custom V's exclusively now.
@@glaucosouza1971 because he BORROWED Rudolphâs Flying V for the tour. In fact, when Michael was in Scorpions, they agreed that Rudolph would play the V and Michael would play a Les Paul - during his first stint, that is. And there ARE photos to back this up.
@@georgeprice4212 your are right to a certain extent. When Michael borrowed the V from Rudolf it was all Black (and he also used a wine red Medallion in UFO). Michael indeed painted it Black and white, Not Rudolf. And the subject here is the painting not the guitar he started to use.
Who remembers the movie UHF and the lines "The Box, THE BOX!!!"
Cool looking V. I wasn't sure about the red but looks good with that fretboard.
Didn't he rip off his brother Michael with the whole black and white V thing?
He didn't. Gibson did. Giving Rudolf a B&W signature V was one of the most out of touch moves 80's Gibson ever did. The fact they never did one for Michael is even more embarrassing.
You incorporated the headstock angle, nice.
Salutations Austin!
Nice Flying V!
Currently, I donât have any Flying Vâs in my collection, but sometime in the future I will eventually pick one up, these guitars have some unique sonic resonances that is specific to Flying Vâs, I used to play one many years ago when I was in my first band, and it was actually owned by our drummer, it was an original Korina Flying V in the natural finish, he also owned an original Korina Explorer also.
I also had another friend that owned an early Flying V that was bright red from 1959, it was a very nice Flying V.
I have seen the Scorpions đŠ perform at several different events and they always put on a great show!
Thank you for posting these videos!
Please have an excellent and awesome day!
âïžâšđž
Is there an Ace Frehley black beauty due from Gibson coming out or can you find out?
I don't like the grenadillo fretboard or the red pickguard. Actually I don't even like flying Vs, ......so there.
For the record, Rudolf Schenker snd Michael Schenker hate each other like Cain and Able. I think Michael Schenker plays Dean Flying Vs. I think Gibson sued Dean, so those vintage Dean Flying Vs are out of production.
Austin. The design of the pick guard aka scratch plate on is like someone designing a room for a blind person that has no idea.
Whereâs the symmetry matching the shape ?
I know Iâm probably calling Apples Jony Ives but seriously I could never own a V from Gibson.
A Solar V ? Definitely
Greetings from NZ đđž
Very cool...love how light that fretboard is
We burn the sky now that's some Scorpions đŠ
You had me at awesome V. and then Rudolph đ¶đ”
I am lucky to have one of these.
Have to say, it does sound scorpionsie.
I just hate those split color guitars.
8:05 12" radius would be flatter than 10" just fyi
SCORPS. One of my favorite groups. Love it man đđđđŻđžđž. (Still Loving you, and No one like You. Great songs!!)
Shipping things over a certain size gets pretty expensive since itâs considered âfreightâ by UPS, FedEx, etc and itâs no longer priced by weight, but by box size. So that giant box doesnât make much sense.
There were some nice ones in there.
*Troglyâs Gibson Show
Im pretty sure your neck would have to be level to accurately measure the angle of the headstock.
Disagree. Gibson should be making more GUITARS and less "collector's pieces". Almost all the Gibsons we love from the 60s/70s/80s/90s were normal, Gibson USA, working man instruments.
The guitar player market is so huge compared to the collector market which is pretty niche.
Ah! The headstock angle measurement, cool! You said there'd be some of that!
Iâm afraid of big boxes. How many have been in that box?
đŠđš
Evening all!!
Hello!
Evening champ
Hellooo from Uk!!
Good evening sir
Hi yo
Oh yeah, 2:23 that's a real beauty right there
Thatâs a Michael Schenker design!
How about a full zip hoodie
I could have sworn Schenker Vs had black pickguard on the white half and vice versa. đ€ Who am I thinking of? Michael?
Awesome sauce..!! Michael is currently rocking a Dean version đ€đ»đ€đ»đ€đ»
With the light weight I should get one to save my back! đ
On another Scorpions note, Matthias' explorer looks thicker in the body than a regular explorer. I wonder if it is, or if I'm hallucinating?
man that is so cool!love your show
I kinda like the reversed pickup sound on this one.
Crack pipe burn, that's what that is!!
LOVE DRIVE IS THE SCORPIONS BEST ALBUM
Good butt rock tones
now you gotta do micheal schenker dean v
Hey could you at some time take a look at a Cort Manson MBM-1 guitar? It's hard to find any videos on it and idk if its worth saving up for. There is two versions one with a built in midi controller and one without (I have been thinking about the midi controller guitar)
i have a 94 rudolf V
I bought a squire 51 off the gear exchange it also came in a huge box lol
It looks like the same model that Gibson built in 2015 for the Japanese market. Small headstock, granadillo fingerboard Classic57/Classic57+... I had one and sold it due the neck had the same profile as yours. Too wide and too flat.
NICE! Very Nice was in the box.
The pickup selector being "upside down" is Australian...bad pun, sry. I'll see myself out.
Michael is the man !!!!
Naww! For me the best Scorpions song is The Zoo!
Hi.
A.. the big box was probably all they could come up with but that is weird.
B. I'm messaging Rudy to see what the significance of the red pickguard is... we'll see..
I had a 79 in white, well, cream... I disliked the short headstock very much but hey....
đ
You made the podium for this video and earned a Bronze Medal Andy.
@@sgt.grinch3299 cheers Sgt
Grenadilla wood will be familiar with you clarinet players out there
A drangus!!!
Easy. Check prease!!!
Immediately putting that device to measure headstock angle to work!
Good morning from Indonesia
Thatâs what she said
Headstock break-angle measurement, whoa.
Always doing more, I love it Trogly
would love to know if more Gibson's had lesser break-angles like this one (wouldn't have guessed this was not 17)
Pretty sure it changed to 14 degrees between 1968 and 2001. Then went back to 17 degrees
Whatâs in the box??
Looks like Mikes.
Who made the acoustic V that was black/white?
The Black and White apparently was a one off as only models by Gibson (the double neck and one of the single neck models) and one by Boris Dommenget (the other single neck) appeared in a google search, all in Natural.
@george price Huh....I thought for sure I saw a b/w acoustic V about 10 or 12 years ago. Don't remember the brand....but no I looked and all the acoustic V were Dean's. And they were black.
Oh well must be Deja few.
I thought it was the monolith from 2001 A Space Odyssey.....
Before I even watch the video, Iâm gonna guess that itâs one of those Firefly double necks!
Update: Aaaaand Iâm wrong. Pretty darned cool V, and most likely better quality than Firefly. By the way, if anyone out there is still listening to the Scorpions I would recommend some of their earlier albums. In Trance, Fly to the Rainbow, a
Lovedrive and Animal Magnetism all hold up pretty well if you like the bands music.
Hello t Iâm a crazy guitarist of 45+years and I lived in Kalamazoo for many years Pete Reno
Pete Mareno was my teacher I was his Apprentice for three years I know all the guys at Heritage and if anybody knows anything about the era of Gibson products that you like so much should know the name of Peter Marino but anyway the reason why Iâm making a comment is I like your show but you never seem to show any of the heritage products and I think people are missing out because they make some really good product
@@cataclysmicconverter no he was gone before I got there but I did get to meet âthe man himself Mr.McCarty
Looks so modern. Beautiful guitar
Despite my general aversion to signature guitars and only knowing a smattering of the Scorpions' songs, I still think I would make an exception for this Rudolf Schenker V.
