It had 45 degree mounting tangs on the stock tuners like an Ibanez gotoh style and instead of drilling new holes for the Grovers that have the tabs 180 degrees from the top they spun the tuners back and used the holes from the cheap die cast. Hey at least those tuners are worth 30 dollars at least all day long, but like you said at the start of the video as long as the woods good you can mod it. As a friend of mine would say putting those nice Grovers on that guitar is like hanging a chandelier in a haunted house. The headstock is cool and the rosewood board does epiphone still make the bolt on LP specials ? It might be cool to put the maestro neck on one of those bolt on epiphone LP. I’d put a Gotoh wrap around bridge that can has intonation adjustment, If I were nodding that thing, or a PRS style bridge maybe. The neck on it or fretboard is nice by today’s budget guitar standards. In fact the older Squier necks with rosewood slabs are probably way better than the Mexican fenders with rosewood substitutes. Wow it actually sounds decent you might have a keeper beater there mod it and message it for playability but the first thing I’d do is fix the tuners straighten them out and drill holes in the right place and might as well throw a Tusq nut on it while you’re fixing the tuners and it’d probably have pretty solid tuning stability . Most 60 dollars guitar needs a set of 60 dollar tuners to stay in tune. Anyway that’s a pretty nice score pawnshops around here suck they look on reverb and see what like new guitars of the model they have go for and so they want 600 dollars for an ephiphone with 4 and a half strings rusted hardware and looks like it’s been drug through a ditch.

Love the video and found myself nodding in agreement with the discoveries you made. Now it’s story time: I was in a thrift store on July 4th of this year and everything was 1/2 off. The place was mobbed and for some reason I was somehow jealous of the guy I saw with a $25 First Act two pickup guitar that he was going to get for $12.50….until I found it. It gave your single cutaway a run for its money- My soon to be baby was brush-painted with gray house paint and had black paint covering the name headstock and truss cover. The nut was not original and overhung the fretboard by a ton. The only things holding it in were the rusty strings and a piece of cardboard wedged underneath. But it was complete-had a single humbucker (in better shape than yours), wrap around saddle that wobbled all over the place, original volume and tone knobs and all 6 stock tuners. But the neck was the best part-beautiful maple with rosewood fretboard, both in great shape-especially considering the mess that surrounded them. It was tiny and looked like a guitar a kid had just destroyed to piss off his parents. Still I bought for $6.50 (1/2 of $12.99) , brought it home, took it apart, stripped the paint off, and found a Maestro mini Flying V in yellow. When I researched it online, many called it a ‘Roadie’ but the truss cover said ‘By Gibson’, not Roadie like the red and blue versions I saw online. The stripper (or maybe the kid) ruined the finish but o think the scratches and thin areas give it character-sort of like the dents and chips you have on yours. Still messing with the set up because, like yours, the action on the higher frets is way too high…and I have no idea how to shim it…but after you rescued yours, I’m inspired! To be continued…

You may want to try shimming the neck to get the action down on the high end of the fingerboard.

I bought one from musicians friend for about $90, came with a new looking hard case worth probably $80. So I guess I paid $10 for it?. This one seems to have no issues except the leaning bridge and no good way to adjust intonation. The intonation is close enough for my 65 year old ears. What is really cool about is that unplugged it is the loudest/clearest sounding of all my guitars. I swear it sounds like an acoustic when strummed unplugged. Go figure! It also sounds great plugged in. I think i'll look for a couple more at the right price.

These definitely sound amazing acoustically, and that’s a great thing to check/test with any electric guitar. Unless the pickups are absolute garbage, an electric that sounds good acoustically will likely sound awesome plugged in. I love mine and want to get the SG variant of the Maestro!

I'm sorry I didn't say it in the video, but I'm pretty sure it was the Fender Twin Reverb setting on my Fender Mustang I v2 with everything dimed; it also has a little reverb applied and a tubescreamer patch with everything set at 5. This is all through a preset I built with Fender Fuse. It's an older software, but somehow it still works! This amp is amazing for recording despite its bad reputation. If you wanted to replicate it yourself, you could set an amp on a clean setting with the following general settings: Bass 7-8, Mid 3-4, Treble 6-7, Reverb 3-5, Tubescreamer with everything set from 5-7. If you don't have a Tubescreamer, you can use the same settings above on the overdrive channel. Set the gain/distortion to your liking, but generally it would probably need to be around 5 or less. Obviously adjust this to your liking, but that's a general way to get in the ballpark of what I got out of this!

Did you get rid of Mr. Bug! lol. Today my next door neighbor gifted me a Maestro just like this one. Thats why i found your video . I cleaned it up and replaced the strings.I did not adjust the action at all. No fret buzz that I can hear. The fret edges are a little sharp but not so sharp that they will damage your hands. If the bridge is tilted it is hardly noticeable to me. They found it in a storage locker and had no use for it. It plays smoothly, action is low. I thing the previous owner took good care of it. It has no dings that I can see and the paint job is flawless. I think I got lucky. In my opinion the string bridge holes were hard for me to see and i struggled to restring it, otherwise not bad for a guitar that sells for between $100.00 to $200.00. The bridge is something I might consider replacing. Any sugesstion? I am not a guitar tech so I would need a simple fix bridge. lol Thanks for posting. I really enjoyed your video. It was very educational.

I wanted a banjo so I found a person selling a Pyle for $50, as well as a white Maestro, also for $50. Wasn't interested but for the money I got it. Both were brand new condition so it was a no-brainer. Wasn't interested in actually playing it but it's nice to have a Jr style in the collection. Now I plan on a fret edge dress and a tune-o-matic set up on it, as the edges are bleeding sharp and the intonation is off 4 frets up! But the neck is straight and the finish is perfect. Hell, a hot pickup and some quick pots and tuner replacement (I have drawer-fulls of both) and I'll have a sweet little guitar!

You claim that since these are first guitars, they are cash grabs for the companies, who really don't care once they have your money (I'm loosely paraphrasing.) have a different theory about student pack and budget guitars. I believe that companies know that the first guitar has a 50/50 chance. If the first impression is bad, that customer might never want to keep trying. If the first impression is good, it can create a lifelong obsessive guitar player, who could, and probably will change music. That's a he'll of a 50/50 shot. It's more like all or nothing. I believe that budget guitars are a good way to get good quality instruments at low prices. My bullet mustang is amazing, and 100% stock. Thanks for the great video.
@BigJakeMusic Жыл бұрын
My opinion is somewhere in the middle of what you suggest. As I said in the video, Gibson wants to hook you and make you a lifelong follower, eventually upgrading to an Epiphone, then a Gibson. On a certain level, these big box store guitars were made as cheaply as possible, which causes massive quality control issues, but there is truth to trying to make it “good enough.” As I found with this Maestro and with my Starcaster Strat, the lack of QC can also lead to certain items being TOO good for what they should be. I love my Bullet Mustang, and I generally like Squier as a brand. My sentiment was aimed toward the tier BELOW Squier and Epiphone, but I mostly agree with what you’ve said here. Thanks for watching, I appreciate it very much!

Call it whatever you wish, but I call it exactly what its based on: a Les Paul Junior! Mine was a $70 cherry sunburst special 5yrs ago, although the pawnshop wanted more before I pointed out all that was wrong like a missing knob and two strings so they deducted it from its $100 tag. I was going to originally put in some work into it until I came across a Maestro SG Junior in the same pawnshop a month later and that was an $80 score. I decided on a P90 makeover for the Junior #1 with a few minor upgrades such as a lightning wrap properly compensated for a plain G, CTS pots with a retained green Chiclet cap and a LP Deluxe style pickup bezel I made with craft sticks and a styrene sheet. That P90 makeover was almost 3yrs ago and Lesmore's still rocks better than the entry-level it once was. The 12K S.A.R. humbucker had some good drive to it for a cheaply made pickup but it doesn't do justice for a Junior like a P90 with the pots wired to vintage specs. I love this thing so much that if I ran across another one, I'd do the same thing all over again!

Slowly tighten your truss rod until the first fret buzz goes away. Then, raise your bridge until the 8th fret buzz goes away. As long as you don’t have a twisted neck or the bridge leaning isn’t too severe, that should fix your problem! If the buzz doesn’t go away even after tightening the truss rod a reasonable amount, you may want to either shim the nut with something or get a new nut entirely.
