Hey there, I just want to let you know you have a scammer in the comment section, using your name, via telegram. It was on your latest video I believe

[@RonH-tf7gi]

Hey Sean, just found your channel. You’re just one fun Dude. I am learning every moment from you. You take care and have fun cause I’ll be watchin!!!

[@Alleged_Mercenary]

My OCD won't let me have those pickups

[@TURBOCAST]

Cathy with the “ get your finger out that hole!” got me 🤣🤣👍👍👍

[@kennylee3906]

Thanks for the shout-out. It probably wasn't intended to me. Lol I like your channel and your wife's to. Keep up the good work.

[@kenhull2386]

Sean AND Kathy....Love your videos and live shows. You've inspired me to set up a small shop area in my garage and start tinkering on my guitars. I just bought a Mitchell MB100 bass and I'm starting on the frets and neck. I love the honesty you deliver. No need for fancy tools and bullshit, just get into the instrument and no lip flappin' 'cause what matters is how it plays! Great Channel!

[@gregcissell345]

When she said gigady I lost it,

[@Ron_Masterjohn]

Awesome Scar My Guitar time. I love these type of videos you do to learn.

[@keithneal4410]

As a player since the late 60s I think you playing demos are VERY consistent. Keep doing what you do.

[@fatemusic9062]

Thank you for all these amazing videos! I have been teaching myself how to do guitar work and maintenance from full setups to even messing with fretwork and swapping electronics, and I have learned so much by watching your channel. You are really good at what you do! Your channel rocks man keep up the awesome work brother!

[@ottovonnekpunch1268]

@09:44: NOICE come back, Cathy! I was TOTALLY expecting the "El-Kabong" response, but you clipped 'em with a zinger, instead! Made people SMILE! NOICE!

[@PipeCat1965]

This one has me 50/50. Body, bridge, and switch might be worth the money for a build project. My favorite part of these videos is watching his eyes shift around while he listens to the guitar for the first time. Speaks volumes. Always a fun time. Love the occasional "giggity".

[@FraJa1980]

Great video! This thing looks a lot like a cheap Dean banger guitar I used to have a while ago, it had the same fat neck and it was super light just a different headstock but the rest is spot on... even the square neck heel and pocket. Was a pretty lousy guitar tho, felt like a toy, high action flimsy electronics and a weird string spacing at the nut ... made a good slide guitar but wasn't very useful for other stuff so I gave it away because I had like 14 guitars back then before "the great guitar exodus". I currently have only 3 electric guitars, a Gibson smart wood exotic 2001 which is my baby ... needs a levelling and crowning job but that's THE guitar for me. Then a 1964 Eko model 100/1 that I'm restoring at the moment, did a fret level, crown and polish job, made a new pick guard and gave it new pots but I messed it up putting everything back trough the F hole I think ... worked fine when I tested it on the bench but put back in the tone became a second volume so I figure I broke or messed up the cap with the reinstall.... not looking forwards to that job I'll tell yah. Hate working on f hole guitars. And a cheap Harley Benton TE-52. Talk about fat necks... Jesus H Christ you could prop up docked ships with these things! But it plays very well and is just a great little cheap banger to have around.

[@TimRock1269]

I got a strat to modify from SHEIN, no markings on the box, and no name on the headstock. I ended up ordering a second and gave them both to my friends' boys. I modded them to get 2 more youngsters started.

[@MisterJWJ71]

I have one of the less expensive Gretsch Bo Diddley models and it has a scarf joint on a maple neck. I didn't know that was all that unusual.

[@marlan3rd]

Nice honest review. I thought it was interesting the way that you corrected the position of the pickup. Are you going to show a video of you making modifications to the guitar by sanding down the neck and changing the tuners?

[@MashaT22]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 I find the comments hilarious. Why would anyone question the fact that you got this guitar without any shipping labels?! Pretty sure your eyes work fine - you know how it arrived at your door! I agree, that’s a pretty honking neck. They probably didn’t want to pay the 1 cent it would cost to carve it down somewhat. The tuners are also a hot mess. We’ve seen much better options at this price point. Always an honest review at !

[@bass69player]

Thank you for these videos Sean. Really thorough and I like how you "correct" them when needed. Not everyone can afford a Fender or Gibson, even the Mexican or China ones.

[@ProjectCreativityGuy96]

I really enjoy watching Your stuff, Sean, as You could host Your TV show!!! It just boggles My mind how You never had any luck with becoming wellknown back in the day, as I think You have great potential! 😊🤘🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

It's fun to watch your craftsmanship at work 👍

[@petercase9583]

Wow cool box incognito, Sean this is another great show. Love the shop class stuff.

[@Edricofifrit]

I just bought the green version of this guitar. When I was first tuning it, it was kind of all over the place, so I popped the dust cover off to check the truss rod, it was not even finger tight. I put a little bit of tension on and after giving the strings a couple of days to stretch out and it's holding a tune fairly well. The only complaint I have is that the fingerboard is a bit rough, so much so that I can easily catch a string on it during a heavy bend. I'll probably see about putting a better neck on it at some point. After adjusting the pickups it definitely has that spicy Les Paul sound. A good beginner guitar for sure and most likely will be a great project guitar.

[@NaturesChild]

8:02 hope those screws are real short. wires look in danger

[@PeterQuill-rh3lm]

Not me waking up every morning to watch your newest videos watching, thanks for making waking up for school a whole lot easier love you guys!!🤘🎸❤️

Good morning!

[@Bbbbad724]

What is up Sean? You are the greatest, you and Cathy. Y’all mean a lot to me. I been down since I broke my arm and shoulder, and yall have cheered me up! Looks like the LP Special I gave my granddaughter. That is why I gave mine to her because the neck is too thin for me. That one is perfect for me.

[@eddieglenn322]

I like the pickups for what they are. But Kathy's p90's though

Thank you Sean you’ve help me work on my on guitars I’m new at it being 53 You and Kathy are a real inspiration to me I am also from Orlando it’s hard to afford all the things that go into guitar so thank you and keep up the good work

[@wizrom3046]

Fretboard wood looks like the Laurel wood on my cheap chinese strat. Its real wood, nice and hard, BUT really really dry and grippy on the fingers. You have to oil the heck out of it a few times until your fingers stop grabbing/squeaking during bends. And yeah I suspect it is dyed.

[@fatratz2012]

you have got the format for these cheapo guitar vids down pat superb editing great job sean and cathy!

[@Dlokey4315]

Been watching for months now and really like show and haven't missed one since. You are absolutely right about keeping the settings right on every video is key. Oh and Kathy😂nice come back on the " giggity " 🤣🤣 LMAO!

[@b.rodclark334]

Chunky neck w/a scarf joint similar to my Maestro Les Paul & SG Juniors and both necks remind me of my late uncle's '59 Les Paul Special. The next video should have a 'scarred' Ermik!

[@jimmyp63]

Hey, Sean.I hope you get this message safely. Have you ever tried out one of those 'Maestro' Gibson made Les Paul junior's??? They also have an SG junior. Just a thought & I thought about getting one of those. They're all over the place, used , at a great price.! And the quality's not too bad. See if you can Check-in to it would like to see You get into one of those things make it happen! Lol. Love everything that you're doing on this black Les Paul. I love how you made that 'jig block' to space pick ups for placement! Enjoy everything you and wifey do! Your minds seem to be way ahead of the instruments you buy before they ever hit the door step! Lol! You're like a mad scientist! I love it! Peace brother!

[@alioth2021]

I bought a Glarry with the same fretboard material. Those grain lines are very tight, but the leftover CNC markings may be contributing to that. I scraped mine with a razor blade and it made it look and feel better.

[@steveweilhart2359]

like the satin finish on the neck - yeah I was thinking the same thing don't sound much like a les paul - good work Sean & Kathy

[@frankperricone2065]

It does look a little like a Epiphone LP Special.

[@SEEKPRODUCTIONS100]

Sean and Kathy.. I really enjoy watching your videos. Really informative and funny. :D Also a hello from Canada!

I found that Teflon tape works great to tighten up a loose tremolo arm or a loose LP type bridge bolt.

[@jodybaird7886]

Thanks for all these fun videos. Quick question about your theme song: Why can’t I touch your scarred guitar?

[@scarmyguitar]

Cause it'll get your fingers broken!! lol

[@Gerry-cg6kr]

Only way to tell difference from small pot and large pot is do a ohms check on both.

[@jukebox5308]

PS -Sean I’ve used paper and cardboard to fill holes or help take up space besides paper is made from wood still??? Giggidy

[@Bbbbad724]

I have the 50s U neck on my Tele, and my Silvertone is nice and fat. I guess all the manual labor that has earned me this arthritis is why my hands are like baseball gloves. I had a helluva time finding leather welding gloves.

[@eclipsetheraindanbutler2478]

That looks a LOT like the Fojill LP that I got! TOTALLY different headstock, but in my review I pointed out that it had a Special body, flat, but the 2 volume and 2 tone configuration. The Fojill isn't a bolt on neck though either.

[@Bocephas1]

Sean that’s called Buyer Beware Delivery! No address. No return address. They can say, what guitar. We didn’t send U any guitar. 🎸💪😎

[@ianwebb8066]

I wonder if the hole under the neck plate is to hang it to paint

[@TheDrunkenScoundrel]

The 'Technical Wood' that Tagima uses on their lost-cost imports behaves like real wood. It gets dry and if you condition it it will absorb moisture the same as real wood. This looks EXACTLY like o=my TG Jazzmaster copy fretboard.

[@jerryhatrick5860]

Oh pickups have been crooked n tilted for many years. Fender W as the first to do it with the bridge pickup. In case you furgitted.

[@Bbbbad724]

That is the neck I wish had been on my Epiphone. Those sound like ceramics like Pearly Gates.

[@rockoutmichigan]

I'm like Kenny. I watch all the videos too, Hoss. Mad love from The Glove!

[@tombrackettjr.9308]

Sean, what is the reason for the holes in the neck channel? I mean I know some guitars have an adjustment to be like shimming the neck. But it doesn't look like on the budget guitars that is what it is for.

[@TheRealDealBobbySteele]

Would like to see you scar this one. I have a epiphone sl it is a bottom tier guitar but it’s my first brand new guitar I’ve ever had it is a Les Paul with single coil pickups it plays and sounds fine but I’m gonna have to scar it

[@johnmcdonald6602]

I got a Glarry blue burst LP style for 60$ on amazon a year ago that is just like that Ermik. Had to do the same thing the pickups to lol. Great video bud keep em coming!

I really like the style and the neck would be just fine for me, but why does it have have to be so screwed up? Cathy you cracked me up when you said Giggidy!

[@Gerry-cg6kr]

Why does every one carry right hand tuners but no lefts

[@drpc98014]

So how much is too much- fret height differences that is? I have a new guitar the has about 5 frets that cause the "tool" to rock. I can measure the difference using feeler gauges, The question is how do I determine if a fret needs to be filed. If I measure a .005 air gap is this ok or does it need to be trimmed down.

[@latheofheaven1017]

If you play one fret lower than a high fret, does it make the string buzz/rattle? If so, the high fret is too high.

[@drpc98014]

when shawn checks fret height he uses a tool that spans 3 frets. if he can rock the tool he fixes the high fret. i'm trying to determine if my high frets are too high, even though i don't hear buzz the tool indicates the fret is too high. since i've never done fret work i'd rather not file them if it's not necessary @@latheofheaven1017

[@scarmyguitar]

If the action is how you like it with no buzz then no filing needed.

[@drpc98014]

@@scarmyguitar ok thanks but after watching many of your videos and several others, it seems that everyone works on any frets that measure high regardless. fyi: I'm too new to playing to tell if the action is too high or not. I set the action height as shared by others. Finally enjoy your channel learned a lot.

Cathy is a real sweetheart. You need to remember that or you might get bonked! The good ones always keep their man on the straight and narrow. And (like with a mule) the best way to do that is with a thick piece of wood.
