Love your videos. I'm a conservator by profession. Bubble wrap in direct contact with a surface like that can cause irreversible change/damage. Wrap the instrument in acid-free tissue then bubble wrap if you want so no plastic in contact. Also (sorry to rage), the switch tip... put it in a zip bag and write on where it is from with the serial number of the guitar. So easy for removed components to become disassociated. If you want to 'improve' packing, it would make sense to contact a conservator (American institute of conservation?). That bubble wrap may be there for decades. Thanks for all your friendly content.

Your guitar museum is fantastic! I LOVED my tour. And especially getting to play Jimmy Page’s original 1275, and Alex Lifeson’s white version! (I preferred Jimmy’s, I must admit!), not forgetting Zappa’s original “Roxy” white-faced headstock SG! That was a dream come true for a Zappa fanatic like myself! And George Harrison’s rosewood Tele from the Apple rooftop gig was another highlight! But the killer was getting to play Macca’s original Höfner 500/1 bass! That was another dream come true! How you managed to persuade McCartney to part with such an iconic instrument is anyones guess, but well done! Ps. I case you were getting confused by my comment, I’m a time traveller folks, and just got back from Trogly’s guitar museum in the year 2052! Unfortunately the technology is only capable of taking one person at a time (that’s me, of course!), but once I get back from my next visit to Area 51 I’ll have enough parts to beef it up so someone else can come too!! It’s an expensive trip, so start saving up yer pennies, people!

Sad day indeed Austin. You may recall that I played this guitar in 1978 or 1979; it was on tour in the UK as part of the "MUSEX" musical equipment exhibition roadshow. I understand that Howe used it on some of the Tormato album and Gibson borrowed for the exhibition tour it for its showcase value. I was 16 or 17 at the time; my friend Max (bass) and I attended the show, filling our plastic bags with leaflets, stickers and cheap freebies and checking out exotic equipment that was way beyond our reach. Following the demonstration of The Les Paul, there was a large crowd of guys just standing in awe; I had nothing to lose and asked the presenter if I could play it. He gave me the thing without a blink. Max grabbed a late 70's era Gibson bass and we performed our best interpretation of Xanadu by Rush following which there was a mad rush by everyone else to play the thing. Good memories. I am sure you will miss this guitar a lot. I wish I could have bought it.

The glue sets really fast & actually secures the box better than tape only. I've been doing this for years, never had a failure and saved a ton on tape.

Ok not trying to brag or anything but...have met Steve Howe at 4 different meet/greets with "Yes" over the years. He does not shake hands ( you are told this before you go in to meet the band) he is one mellow guy for sure and is very soft spoken in person. I know he has sold alot of his Guitars over the years..he also sold one of his Mercedes too. He signs things graciously and will speak with you in line as you move on to the rest of the band. 2017 meet/greet he told me I take good pics and I asked him if she still has this one particular outfit from the 1976 tour? He said "Yes, still has it back home in Devon" The guy is an amazing guitarist for sure and is now 73 years old. Anyone want to see some pics...post up your e-mail address and I can send to you.

Never saw this episode until recently but wow. that has to be the most beautiful color on a Les Paul i've ever seen. just curious though. Is there any guitar you have that you'd never sell.

Well while he was packing the guitar it really looked like a funeral.

When packing your guitars, I am surprised that you don’t use Fragile stickers, it does make a difference, after 50 years delivering parcels I should know.

This 'The Les Paul' is the first guitar that comes to mind when I think on the channel, I remember watching the video of it when I first stumble with this channel. It sure feels weird knowing it won't be around anymore. I guess it's time for a "new chapter".

That's amazing brother! I always loved Steve Howe. He is in my top 5 all-time greatest guitarists. He's a brilliant player. Im a giant YES fan. I lean toward the earlier albums. And up to Drama. Then I drifted....But Bravo! And good for you!

Not at all, I get it. It was a rather emotionally heavy experience...and Austin definitely did well at conveying that. I'm sure a good majority felt something very similar; it hit me like a ton of bricks, hearing those latches close...

Glad you did a refresher. Saw the Steve Howe in your Reverb listing but never bothered to watch the old video. Definitely nice to see a close up before you parted ways with it. Excited to see the new high end guitar you have coming in.

Most often I think a Les Paul is cool, nothing amazing. But even without the history, this was beautiful. I just wanted to hold her. What a work of art!

8:27 putting that guitar on that flimsy stand 1" away from the edge of the table... yikes

Steve's been my fave guitarist, regardless of genre, for nearly 50 years!
