Gibson Les Paul Restoration 1989s

Please check out the new Gibson Les Paul refinish video.
• Gibson Les Paul 1997's...
It's a Gibson, ma'am! It's a Gibson!
I never thought I'd be stripping paint off a Gibson guitar... five years ago, I never would have imagined it.
After all, Gibson guitars are very expensive. The price is astronomical.
Thank you for your request!
The order was for peg hole repair, refinishing, pickup repair, and pickguard repositioning.
The front PU had a col break and was not producing any sound. The pickup of this age is a base pickup.
I was puzzled for a moment because I don't usually take apart super guitars like Gibson, but I found the broken coil.
I found a broken coil and repaired it while pulling my hand (out of focus).
I re-drilled the mounting holes for the pickguard and modified the shape of the pickguard a bit to fit this guitar.
I didn't have time to take a video, so you can't see the correction of the peg hole, but it was done. The hole was a little too big for the peg bushing.
The peg hole was a little too big for the peg bushing. Filled with sanding sealer and colored.
I thought I didn't need to rub the frets together, but the frets were too flat.
I had to grind the frets to get the roundness back.
The refinish is oil finish, maple top is colored black and then painted with oil.
I thought about using natural, but I found a big knot and colored it black.
The back is one piece mahogany, and it's beautiful...
I finished it with my hands. The finished photo was taken inside the house... I couldn't get a good shot... forgive me...
Please note that this is not a product for sale.

• Gibson Les Paul 1997's...
ギブソンですよ奥さん！ギブソンですって！
まさかギブソンのギターを塗装剥がしする事になるとは…5年前の私には想像もつかない事でしょう。
なんたってギブソン超高級品です。天文学的数字の値段がつきますね。
ご依頼ありがとうございます！
ご依頼内容はペグ穴の修正とすり合わせ、リフィニッシュ、ピックアップ修理、ピックガートの位置修正。
フロントPUがコル断線で音が出ない状態でした。この年代のピックアップは基盤のピックアップなんですね。
普段Gibsonなどというスーパーギターをバラさないので一瞬戸惑いましたが、断線したコイルを発見。
手をプルプルさせながら修理（ピンぼけ）
ピックガードは取り付け穴を開け直しピックガードの形もこの子に合うように少し修正しました。
動画を撮る余裕がなくペグ穴修正が写ってませんが、修正しています。ペグブッシュに対して少し穴が大きかったです。
ヘッドに以前付けてあっとペグのあとがあり修正しました。サンディングシーラーで埋めて着色
すり合わせはしなくても大丈夫かなと思いましたがフレットが平すぎる
コレはいかん、一応すり合わせを行いフレットの丸みを戻しました。
リフィニッシュはオイルフィニッシュ、メイプルトップを黒く着色後オイルで塗装。
ナチュラルでもと思いましたが、大きな節を発見黒く着色しました。
バックはワンピースマホガニーコイツはええ…美しい…
手な感じで完成。完成写真は家の中で…きれいに撮れなかった…ゆるしえ・・・
販売品ではございません、ご注意ください。

Very nicely done, Andy, as always. Hat's off to you.

[@AustinRogers1]

Very well done! Beautiful finish!

[@lukecuxton1514]

Great piece of work Andy

[@andreafussone5695]

great work!!! love the final result!

[@dsayan]

I have to agree with some. I wouldn't have done that myself on a 80's gibson. However, you did an amazing job on this one. Too bad it's a 3 piece maple top.

[@MissYaBigMan]

Fantastic craftsmanship! Too many guitar modification/restoration videos have someone obnoxiously talking rubbish with some generic music in the background. This was lovely and oddly relaxing to watch. You have a fantastic attention to detail!

[@Andybassguitar]

Thanks for your comment. I'm glad if you can enjoy the work sound. Please listen to the new video because the sound is clearer.

[@FAMUCHOLLY]

You are a TRUE master. Thank you for the education!

[@dicky4435]

Beautiful piece of twang. Love the natural color. Must've been great to play.

[@davidp5791]

beautiful showcasing of the wood itself.

[@lawrencelivingstone5651]

You are an artist of the highest order.

[@rdejianne]

Beautiful. The stain color on the top looks incredible and I love the satin back. Killer job. Ignore the haters.

[@javaks]

Whenever I see thick layer of paint and lacquer being removed, I can almost hear the guitar say "OMG I can breath again!"

[@m.a.c.8366]

thanks very much for sharing this restore, and yes all instruments are an individual work in of them selves and the artist only, excellent work..

[@Andybassguitar]

Thank you for your nice comments. Everything is for the players.

[@ecupirate0023]

Thank you for sharing excellent skills.

[@user-fm4gu2kk3s]

本当に素晴らしい仕事ですね！ やっぱり思い出とかがあるギターだと新しいの買うのは気が引けるし売りたくないですが、こういうリペアが楽器を生まれ変わらせてまた同じギターでこれからも弾けるというのは凄く嬉しいことです。

what was the turn around time for this project? specially the restoration of the finishes without the electronics? planning to put a new finish to my ebony lp into a goldtop..just wondering the time that would take..

[@diegogubernati2033]

great job...from Italy

[@JCHaywire]

I found my 78 Greco Custom lawsuit-era in Chiba, and much like you, I brought it back to life. Mine was sodai gomei day, but it appears that you just bought yours (nearly) new.

well done 👍👍👍

[@Andybassguitar]

I did well!

[@oka5983]

この様なお方にフレットすり合わせやフレット交換をお願いしたい。 近所の楽器屋には怖くて出せない・・・ やはりどんな仕事するか見れるとそれだけで安心感が違う。

外注に出してる楽器屋さんだとちゃんとしたリペアマンがやってることがほとんどなので安心してもいいかも。

It is Tamiya's grease.

[@Customwinder1]

The new colour of the top is awesome . Great work. 👍👍

[@andreasportelli6783]

Hi, I have a pair of hb-r and hb-l from a 90's explorer and I would install in my r8 les paul. But looking at the base plate, the bare wire is disconnected from pickup. do i have to reconnect bare wire on the pcb, then on the volume pot with the black wire? thank you andrea

[@bradfordgordon6552]

nice job

[@Andybassguitar]

Thank you!

[@Last_one_before_I_go]

You take great care in your workmanship and that is to be commended. I was fine with the back and side stain/color, but the top (face) color is a mystery...I see you noted it was requested work - However, I believe the customer requesting this work should have been taken out in a field and shot. If it were mine, a deep cleaning/polishing would have been my request - although only 30 years old, it has some character to the guitar that should have been preserved.

[@Andybassguitar]

I'm sorry I can't understand English perfectly. It's clear that protecting Old Gibson. Nevertheless, the guitar is a personal property and its shape, color and personal freedom. I respect it. I think it's good to remove rust and polish metal parts to protect your guitar. Sorry for not understanding all the comments.

[@twootters7433]

So the customer should be shot for wanting to something different to HIS guitar? Am I the only person who thinks that comment is purely insane? First it's a Gibson. Who cares. Second it's a Gibson. Who cares.

[@twootters7433]

@@Andybassguitar You did a beautiful job on that guitar it had character now and style. Well done sir!

[@nomojoe8150]

Two Otters Andy did do what the customer wanted and he did a very fine job, but you (customer) shouldn’t do this to a Gibson. Epiphone yes but not a Gibson.

[@odotbro]

Nice job,regrats...i really want that gibs

[@Andybassguitar]

Thank you. I'm happy. This guitar is a customer's guitar and is not sold. Thank you.

[@leevjr686]

Nice technique in recovering the serial number and the "MADE IN U.S.A." stamping. I'm having trouble recovering my White LP Custom ... serial # (?)2115120. Must be a 72 model because it has the volute and the missing dot in the "Gibson" logo. I purchased it 'used' in 1994 from a music store in Mississippi. Thanks for the ideas .... very nice craftsmanship. ALL in La. USA.

[@Andybassguitar]

In the case of Gibson, there is a feeler in the serial number and the filler is buried, so if you take it off, the serial number may become darker.

[@leevjr686]

@@Andybassguitar Excuse me ... I should have said it is a 1975 Les Paul, probably made on July 30, 1975, s/n 120, at the Kalamazoo plant. It suffered a brief flood in 2016 and has recently been repainted. The paint work is OK, but I want all the stamping showing so when it is sold one day, there will be no question of its age. Are you in Japan? I have ordered a black light to help me see into the wood. .... Thank you very much for any help and advise. ...... ALL , La. , USA ..... I repair toy trains and have worked as a tool builder, so I appreciate your craftsmanship and attention to the necessary details.

[@Andybassguitar]

I'm sorry I have difficulty understanding English completely. This sentence is also written by machine translation. It was difficult to fully understand the comments that arrived. I live in Japan. I'm sorry I couldn't help. Ask questions anytime.

[@jbrobertson2758]

Andy, I was hoping to hear that good looking Les Paul playing a melody with that sweet sounding piano !??

[@christosfragias592]

Can you please provide the brand/type of polish used for the bridge and input jack? Thanks.

[@Andybassguitar]

The polishing agent used for metal polishing is a polishing agent called pikael[pika-ru] It is a popular metal compound in Japan.

Thanks!

[@iamDBA1]

I get the point a lot of people are making about wanting to keep it vintage (and personally me I would have kept it like that myself), but you have to understand something.....it's his guitar (or an order, wasn't too sure of that), so the actual owner can do what they want.

[@Andybassguitar]

Is the 1989 Les Paul a vintage guitar? Of course it is good to value the old ones. But I also enjoy having my guitar in my own color. I like the original color too.

[@iamDBA1]

@@Andybassguitar I use vintage more in the aspect of "original" in this case.

[@Andybassguitar]

Sorry, I'm not good at English, please write a little easier.

[@Martin-xb7br]

great job!!! Disagreeing with most, I love the front of the guitar. Is it the color of wood or does it have a toner?

[@johnhetherington8830]

Great top thanks

[@labmita]

Excuse me, what were you spraying at 8:12 ? Was it something to coat the guitar or just an air duster?

[@Andybassguitar]

The head is painted with matte lacquer.

Thank you. There were words that I couldn't understand a little.

That's beautiful.

Thank you!

[@tyates4398]

THe way i see it, Gibson Les Pauls are the most over priced and over hyped buitars on the market, It's not like its a 58 standard that's irreplaceable. Just an 80's era paul with nothing special about it and no crazy provenance, and at the end of the day, it's YOUR guitar. I think it turned out beautifully, i personally would have left it alone but then again its not mine! Great craftsmanship. The Gibson purists are kind of like prius owners, smug and fickle.

[@handwashedstars]

this looks amazing! Way better than original IMO!

[@thosch7237]

Great video. Thanks for posting!

[@Andybassguitar]

Solid work. What lacquer did you used for this project Polyurethane or Nitrocellulose?

[@Andybassguitar]

The body is oil finish. The head is nitrocellulose.

Is that finish porous? Is it nitro? Has the tone and sustain been noticably improved?

This was more like a refinishing, not restoration.

[@nn6554]

[@Wargasm644]

Nice craftsmanship. But not too sure about the top color choice. But it’s not my guitar. I feel the owner has the right in making whatever choice they choose. Nonetheless, very nice work.

[@raceface_m2579]

What is the stuff used on the back of the guitar?

The oil finish is alcohol or acrylic lacquer? Can you recommend a brand for me ?

[@Andybassguitar]

Oil finish uses oil that oxidizes and hardens. Anything will do. I am particular about it, though.
