My Biggest Goof Ever! - Gibson Les Paul Husk Build

[@rustynutz466]

awesome job ! sucks about neck tendon and the glue falling , what a heartbreaker . The headstock looks really good thanks for showing the repair

[@davehopping7212]

PLUS the satisfaction of bringing it back to gig-worthyness!

[@hotcakesman]

don't sweat it, happy little accidents are part of life! You did a great recovery job and rescue as well! Thanks for sharing!

[@Icantdrive55]

You did a great job on the headstock repair and the build in general. It turned out great! 👍

[@RickAltizerMusic]

You are a man of many talents and surprises!! Great video and story.

[@TheTapeFarm]

And facial hair don’t forget the facial hair 🤣. Thanks so much!

[@ItFigures89]

That headstock looks incredible considering the damage. You did a fantastic job for your first time. This was clearly a trial of patience, and you killed it! What a cool little banger you ended up with, to boot. Keep rocking!

[@TheTapeFarm]

A trail of patience is the perfect way to put it. Thanks man!

[@LightWingStudios]

Fantastic recovery! Sounds terrific!

[@TheTapeFarm]

That was a nailbiter for sure. Thanks!

[@Joshua_Wilburn]

Great video!! That is such a bummer about the mishaps but u did it!! And it looks and sounds fantastic!! Great job bud!!

[@jjdillon2007]

Excellent salvage of the headstock. 👍I like the fact that the grain is filled, but it still has a matte/satin type finish.

[@TheTapeFarm]

Agreed. The body is awesome. A buddy of mine in NY had/has an SG that had the same look to it when we were high school.

[@vanshankguitars]

I should look at a husk for my next Gibson...

KILLER MAN!!!!!!!!!!

[@TyRoxYaMan]

Excellent video Keith I’ve always thought about buying a cherry sunburst Les Paul standard off the stratospheres eBay store and building one I found out about Doyle coils Les Paul’s right hand man that builds super legit PAFs and this makes me want to build a sunburst Les Paul even more!

Anything I can do you contribute to another man’s Gear Acquisition Syndrome (GAS) is always worth it.

[@robbehr8806]

In some ways, I like the sound of a monolith body better than sculpted. It turned out well. Consider the glew to be part of the personality of the guitar.

[@TheTapeFarm]

That’s what one of my buddies said as well. It’s part of guitar’s “story” now. That is a very healthy way to look at it.

[@paullatta]

Those Seymour Duncans sound great. Why no tunomatic bridge?

[@TheTapeFarm]

LP Specials have wraparound bridges.

[@paullatta]

@@TheTapeFarm Saw that it had a wrap around. Is it enough to keep the intonation correct or is this not an issue?

[@TheTapeFarm]

@@paullatta oh yeah. Those Gibson Lightning bridges are pretty good. That said I was thinking about putting on a Gotoh adjustable wraparound at some point. But the Gibson bridge is working great.

I realy enjoy your videos- your telin' it like it is- refreshing amonst guitar channel hyperbole" look at this"-Re the spill: remember-things could be worse - a CA Glued Goatee a much more painful , and much harder repair- !than a headstock !........ BTW .....whose autograph is on the bass?....

[@TheTapeFarm]

CA fingers is bad enough… goatee!?! 😵‍💫 The autograph is Neal Morse. I bought the bass from him and asked him to sign it for me. I’m a high fan of his.
