I know this is an April Fool’s joke, but I’m watching anyway because this guitar really does look sick.

[@mightyV444]

The joke went right past me! It's already the 2nd of April here in NZ! 😄 However, the cumbersome way of restringing this guitar did seem suspicious 😆

@@joebryant8500 I've never played a Jazz style guitar with only neck pickup, however with my Stratocaster I easily spend +90% of my time on the neck pickup only so it wouldn't be to difficult to imagine.

The gig bag instead of a hard case is the best part

The "strings through the output jack route" bit is great also 😄

How great would it be if Trogly pulled a double whammy on us and uploaded this today to make us all jump to the prank conclusion, but then announced that it is actually happening?

Of course, everyone already knew about April fools. But that doesn’t discredit the amount of work that must have went into such a well detailed, brilliantly edited, expertly commentated description of the subject, a beautiful instrument, spec’d and made to appear so real. A professional job.

That would be a dream come true though, since Trogly is mainly a Gibson player, and knows all of Gibson's history, it would be fair if get his very own signature guitar by Gibson. That would be a keeper but who know, if he regrets it or change his mind, he should get a signature LP! I've been thinking of that since I subscribed to him and watch the first videos from his 50's standards review, all the way to this day!

[@petertoft70]

The body on the Trogly guitar will be just a giant neck tenon

This was truly amazing. This is a good and honest satisfying April fools.

I'm assuming you did all the photoshop work for the guitar here and on your website which was also really good. It really honestly took me a second to notice some of the blending and shading issues that are hard to hide. You had me fooled for a little bit and it made me so happy. Thank You Trogly
