i don t think most people understand the value of this video... and how many luthiers keep secrets this relic parts... for example fender custom shop doesn t let anyone to see how they relic their guitars... thank you sir for all you do

Thank you. Many people tell me that I reveal too many secrets to the general public. But I don't think so. I really try to show everyone the intricacies of technology and I have a specific goal for this. Once upon a time in the nineties, my father and I studied ancient icon painting and fresco painting because my father lived by this, as I do now in Les Paul. But at that time there was no Internet, there weren’t even books on this topic. The Soviet Union has just died (praise God). Before this, this whole topic was taboo. We looked for information in handicraft reprints. We asked the simplest information about technology from artists who knew something and had some experience. but they all did not want to share even the simplest information about the technology. This really infuriated me. Now my father and I have walked this path and painted dozens of churches in Europe and the Balkans (the cradle of the original Byzantine fresco). Where are all those artists who hid the technology? I don't know. technology is just like the pentatonic scale. Just because you learned it doesn't mean you'll play like Clapton. Therefore, I am happy to share my experience and experiments. Because if someone follows my path and becomes better than me, then I can learn new things from him. This is happiness. This is how art and progress work. I consider KZbin to be an analogue of the Great Library of Alexandria. This is the gold of the modern world. I'll be happy to leave a part of me here. And on Patreon I will tell everyone about this in even more detail.

Even back then, you had a couple of videos showing your evolution in techniques. Thank you!

I laughed for a long time now! It's funny, but I have two types of music masters I know. The first of them repair completely killed instruments, and, in fact, make a completely new master instrument from a 200-year-old violin or guitar, with a dried out, cracked and broken soundboard, a broken neck, and dead pegs, which will sound great and will last, perhaps for another hundred years. Other music masters, like you, on the contrary, use a new working instrument to make something very similar to what the first music masters repaired. It looks like you won't leave each other without work! looool Super job, as always! This GREENY sounds like a honey with chilli! Awesome! Thank You for sharing! 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

Thank you. I've been using ToneRite for several years now and in my case it helps a lot in shrinking all the components on a newly assembled guitar. this works well on nice new guitars. on cheap ones it doesn’t work almost at all, since there is nothing to sound there. on already played ones the effect is less noticeable. In any case, it is good to leave the device on every night as a habit.

What is the point of using "correct" vintage type of capacitor but with capacitance of +30% ? 22nF ceramic cap will be 10 times closer to 22nF bumble bee than 29nF vintage oil cap.

@8BombCustom 9 ай бұрын

In my opinion, the choice of capacitors depends only on personal preferences. I have several vintage PIO Bumblebees, one film Bumblebee that sounds more interesting to me. According to measurements, all values show 0.028-0.029. In my projects I put vintage John E Fast 0.029 as they are exactly true to face value in measurement. I also like the sound of the K40-U9 and K42-U2. they all sound a little different. Ceramics can also be very beautiful. For example, vintage Mexican tablets that were installed on Fender. if 0.022, then they are very good for Les Paul.

First of all, great job. Given you have to invent a lot of stuff yourself, on your own, the compliment stands even truer. As a side note, you could have printed out the pictures in true size and transfer the damage pattern more easily AND more precisely; that especially is correct for smaller dings on the face of the guitar. May be, desaturate the image, highlight the pattern and print it out on translucent film in BW. Some of the stuff on the back (buckle rash) looks too deliberate, those noodle-like scratches, and you put too many identical circular indents on the back (see 14:56). Other than that, well, man, it's a pro job.
