Today, we discuss the Fate of my 1962 Gibson Les Paul (SG) that I purchased from the original family earlier this month. When it came to me, the neck pickup was dead, the nut was cracked, it was missing a saddle, it was dirty and missing the original case! I fixed (most) of these issues in today's installment.
I've decided not to keep this piece. It was sold to me with the understanding that it would be put up for sale to find a forever home. After the initial demo, I was pretty keen on just keeping it myself - but ultimately, I'm going to focus on the Norlin Era through the Henry J era for my museum so I'm going to let this one go for the time being. If I ever start collecting McCarty Eras... I'm sure I'll regret selling this as the Ebony Block SGs are the coolest! I had fun documenting and restoring this one and I hope you enjoyed watching it.

Malcom Young did the same thing with guitars he had by removing the neck pickup. If you're ever unsure if you compare an item you know to be chrome to one you're not sure and vice versa the nickel will look slightly yellowish in most cases in contrast to the chrome. Don't beat yourself up on the nut. Don't know what you used to try and repair the nut but some glues are like water in the aspect of if it can seep out or you another spot it will. Less is more as far as glue goes. Some people use more glue than neccessary and that is one of the problems that occurs. The other is that it doesn't set correctly if theres to much sometimes and you may end up repeating the repair. My Greenburst like many Gibsons you have received had a loose strap button on the tail. I put glue in but misjudged and I ended up with some expanding out around the button. It happens. I'm going to repeat myself here. This guitar is the closest to getting a birth year model as I'm sure I'll ever see. I don't know that you plan to flip it or what but if you ever consider it if I could I'd jump on the chance. Some of the 60s model Fender amps have one or two things that happen. My 65 Deluxe Reverb ) real deal not a reissue) will sometimes have one or the tunes loosen or completely drop out of its socket. Most cases it causes the same issue no sound.

I have a 1961 Les Paul, I received it for my 11th birthday (Feb 9) in 1964. I am the original owner. It was on the wall of the music store where I was taking lessons. It's as clean as the '62 you have. That was a big day for me, I got the '61 LP and a tweed deluxe. Later that evening I watched the Beatles on Ed Sullivan, subsequently I became a full time professional musician and still remain a full time player. The guitar has been very well taken care of and includes the original gator skin case. It's all original. I don't play it out much, but I did play it on the 50th anniversary of the Beatles on Ed Sullivan show. It's an amazing sounding PAF monster. It nails the Clapton 'woman tone' effortlessly. I'll be 70 in about 6 weeks. I'm not working as much as in the past and would be open to selling it. I have pics available. Have a Merry Christmas and thanks for posting this video.

It’s kind of funny really’ I mean no disrespect to Austin but u can’t always find a guitar of that era especially that is in as mint condition as u like and in Austin’s case the condition is just so hard to come by’ I mean it’s a 62 SG! It’s amazing to find one at all let alone one that is that tidy with PRF’s I would just keep it’ if u are starting museum that is just such a prefect addition to the collection as far as I’m concerned 😉🎸

@musicauthority9939 Жыл бұрын
That is exactly what I thought happened, the enamel coating on the wire over a long period of time. will get brittle. and it will chip or crack in the winding of the pickup causing a short. it happens occasionally on much older vintage guitars. and it's a little more common on single coil pickups. you made an excellent choice having Lindy Fralin looks at that pickup. because he and his staff are extremely knowledgeable about most all pickups. especially much older vintage pickups. and he has as close to period correct wire as a person can get. and he has the most period correct wax for wax potting. and the most important thing is his knowledge of the correct spec's for all the pickups. the most important being the amount of winds of the wire. since the amount winds determines the ohm's resistance and the tone of the pickup. back when the pickups were made for that guitar they were hand wound. and now they have a machine specially designed to wind pickups. that has a counter on it so they can tell how many winds of wire are in the spool of the pickup. so he can get it right back within spec..and the also knows what the correct spacing between the pickup and the strings should be. so with Mr Fralin's help you should be able to get that AWESOME guitar back to original spec's. without it being devalued very much.

I recently paid a tech to replace my nut and he did such a bad job (the b string was filed way too low and sounded like a sitar) I decided I would just learn how to don't myself. I conxluded its actually quite easy. I was most worried about removing the old nut but after a little scoring around the edges, one tap against a wood block and it came loose. Then its just a matter of filing and sanding until it feels and sounds right.

Gibson pushed the ebony block stock with both the tusk and teaspoon I believe but imo, getting a nickel teaspoon is a great move especially for resale, tusk arms are always a great parts drawer addition if you ever dive further into “super vintage” too + most of the 60s examples in reach bare chrome hardware/tremolos. Fantastic conclusion to a jaw dropping example! Merry Christmas!!

Another great video! I really enjoyed the first one on this guitar. And I love this follow up. Les Pauls are my favorite guitars. And the early Les Paul/SGs are really interesting. I currently own a couple of SGs. Both Epiphones. I operate in a different price tier than you do. One is a 61 Special and the other is the new Worn Cherry with P90s. I intended to sell the 61 Special when I bought the Worn Cherry with P90s, but when I got it, I spent some time with both of them, and they are so different, and both so good. I’m really trying to do a one in one out strategy right now. Trying to keep my collection to lucky number 13. But, damn. I’m having a hard time figuring out which guitar I could let go. First world problem, for sure. I really enjoy your videos and your passion for guitars. And, we seem to have similar taste in guitars. Although your budget is definitely different than mine. And congrats for that. Carry on, Trogly. 👍

Merry Christmas, Austin. You took quite a bit of grief over the super glue (me included) that was a little harsh, but, not to try and add any more negativity - I'm pointing it out because it sounds like you're not understanding something and I wouldn't want you to do it again. When taping something off, you have to make sure that ALL the tape close to the possible invader is smoothed down, pressed down, whatever you would like to call it. You keep saying the glue got under it - it can't do that if the tape is securely attached to the surface. You have to make sure ALL the area of tape surrounding the target spot is smoothed over and attached to the surface completely that it is protecting. Running a credit card over it in your case would have probably done the trick to ensure full adhesion. I only say this because I am a painter, and we learn that after having to repaint enough times!

That reminds me of a 65 super reverb I bought at a thrift shop like $80. Now, the original speakers were gone in place of a generic 15", and the electronics were original, and toast, and it had some ugly brown fabric as a grille cloth. I bought new grille cloth, decided to stay with the 15" speaker (new warehouse) and took it to LA and had all of the electronics (tubes included) replaced. The Tolex was still on good shape. I ended up dumping like $700 into it, and while it was nowhere near original, it sounded beautiful. Problem was, I lived in an upstairs apartment that shook when I turned it higher than 4, and I had no gigs, so no practical use for it. I enjoyed it for a few months and ended up selling it to a young guy who sounded great playing my Tele through it. I was sad to see it go, but I got about as much out of it as I put into it, and now somebody's loving it for sure.

I have a vintage Gibson amp and I love it. It’s a G-30 from the 70’s. Solid state combo with spring reverb and tremolo. It’s basically Gibson’s version of a Fender Princeton Reverb. There’s no gain knob on it and I love using it with pedals. Without that gain knob I feel like I have complete control of the tones. Sounds great clean too. It’s actually a really good clean jazz amp. I hate jazz though. It was my brothers first amp when he started playing around 1980. He handed down to me When I started playing in the mid 90’s. I didn’t really appreciate back then. Years ago I discovered it in my moms basement and brought it home. I cleaned it up and just fell in love with the tone.

That amplifier I have an Epiphone of that era and I'll tell you the amplifier you have is really clean as well as the guitar. A KZfaqr Uncle Doug does good work.

Baking soda + superglue = superfast drying artificial bone for fixing nuts and acoustic saddles. You only have a few seconds to shape it or get everything in position.

I’m from Richmond Va. I’ve met Lindy Frailen. He’s a good guy, and damn good at what he does.

I would swap the neck to the bridge and bridge to neck with those readings. Cool guitar!

A keeper for sure. To find a pre 70 SG in that condition is rare these days, particularly one that is largely original. Most of the 60's SGs I have seen no longer have their original pickups and tuners. The value of the pickups is almost funny, I remember the first guitar shop I worked in having tin full of "useless old pickups", several of them were original PAFs, no one wanted them. They were typically swapped out for Seymour Duncans or Dimarzios (popular at the time). Merry Christmas to you and yours Trogly, all the best :)

You should do an episode where you try out a bunch of Fralin pickups: pure PAF, hum-canceling p90 (humbucker size), HC 90 with alnico rods, sunbucker, twangmaster, some of the mini humbucker offerings etc.

That's my guitar right there. Nothing prettier than an SG.

Merry christmas, very glad u got the pickup working again!!! Sweet guitar.

Maybe the neck pickup was originally the bridge pickup and was swapped around when it stopped working? That would explain why it’s hotter than the bridge now.

But weren't the solder joints on the pots untouched?
@ChuckNicholsonTRM Жыл бұрын
@@justinkase8642 right, Gibson didn’t measure the resistance of them before putting them in the guitars in 1962. It was just random installation. It’s not a surprise to end up with a hotter pickup in the neck position. It’s a coin toss.

That’s pretty cool! I’ve got a P90 from a 55 ES 175 that died and is currently out at Seymour Duncan being addressed. I don’t know yet what they’re going to have to do to fix it, but the goal is to replace as little as possible.

Merry Christmas @trog. Many blessings for you and yours. Next to the 335, the SG is my favorite Gibson.

Awesome video.. we're you using an amp for the dirty sound? It was beautifully knarly!!!

Great episode !!! If you ever find yourself in that position again with the nut or anything don't forget about RS Guitarworks in right there in Ky. They have done work for the greats such as Rich Robinson and Ricky Metlock.

Actually the bridge pickup sounds hotter than the neck pickup which is weird since it has a higher DCR reading than the bridge pickup but then again that would also depends on the height of the pickup itself like the neck pickup to be adjusted higher to match the bridge pickup which may have to be lowered to balance the sound of both combined.

I wonder what Gibson would have charged to rewind the pickup…
@trentflynn6568 Жыл бұрын
Get the amp in working order, and, set it up to demo at the museum. Since it is an actual ( Gibson Les Paul ), Amp. Just my two cents. & Merry Christmas to all of you and your families!! 🎄🎼🎸🎄

I'd like to hear it with the PU's switched. Higher winding resistance for the bridge. Merry Christmas!
