Hey trogly theres a guitar museum in Chattanooga called songbirds,its amazing,i can't describe the stuff there,some of the stuff there( Hendrixs guitar,some of the only first fenders and Gibsons,the first black gibson,first telecaster with a certain finish,theres a fender prototype there with a foam pick guard with the pickups below it,first Gibson explorers and flying v,and so much more and its amazing and after this i recommend to get a tour there) also it would be cool to see a 7 string Gibson sg if you wanted to check that out

I actually met Steve during the 2019 tour and he was a really nice guy. I got an album signed by him and got my poster signed as well.

It's awesome you had a chance to own such an amazing piece of history.

You’re so lucky, I’ve tried to get an album signed by artist who don’t have a 10th of his talent and they just blow you off that they are all that. When that happens I loose interest and don’t buy another thing by them. I did meet Neil Young in the 80’s, he was amazingly kind, just an average guy. I would like to think most are great people. 😎

Love your videos. I'm a conservator by profession. Bubble wrap in direct contact with a surface like that can cause irreversible change/damage. Wrap the instrument in acid-free tissue then bubble wrap if you want so no plastic in contact. Also (sorry to rage), the switch tip... put it in a zip bag and write on where it is from with the serial number of the guitar. So easy for removed components to become disassociated. If you want to 'improve' packing, it would make sense to contact a conservator (American institute of conservation?). That bubble wrap may be there for decades. Thanks for all your friendly content.

[@mentalcog2187]

To me,.. that is the most fantastic guitar. Not because of the history but because of what it is. That is the epidemy of guitar craftmanship, artistic expression and passion simply as it sets there. Could never part with a piece of art of that caliber. Playing it would be a must and yes,.. showing it off would be a must. Again,.. not because of history or the fact it's a genuine Gibson Les Paul. Those things simply make it even more special. Beautiful Guitar. Just Wow!

Your guitar museum is fantastic! I LOVED my tour. And especially getting to play Jimmy Page’s original 1275, and Alex Lifeson’s white version! (I preferred Jimmy’s, I must admit!), not forgetting Zappa’s original “Roxy” white-faced headstock SG! That was a dream come true for a Zappa fanatic like myself! And George Harrison’s rosewood Tele from the Apple rooftop gig was another highlight! But the killer was getting to play Macca’s original Höfner 500/1 bass! That was another dream come true! How you managed to persuade McCartney to part with such an iconic instrument is anyones guess, but well done! Ps. I case you were getting confused by my comment, I’m a time traveller folks, and just got back from Trogly’s guitar museum in the year 2052! Unfortunately the technology is only capable of taking one person at a time (that’s me, of course!), but once I get back from my next visit to Area 51 I’ll have enough parts to beef it up so someone else can come too!! It’s an expensive trip, so start saving up yer pennies, people!

[@Rick-uu5yo]

Sad day indeed Austin. You may recall that I played this guitar in 1978 or 1979; it was on tour in the UK as part of the "MUSEX" musical equipment exhibition roadshow. I understand that Howe used it on some of the Tormato album and Gibson borrowed for the exhibition tour it for its showcase value. I was 16 or 17 at the time; my friend Max (bass) and I attended the show, filling our plastic bags with leaflets, stickers and cheap freebies and checking out exotic equipment that was way beyond our reach. Following the demonstration of The Les Paul, there was a large crowd of guys just standing in awe; I had nothing to lose and asked the presenter if I could play it. He gave me the thing without a blink. Max grabbed a late 70's era Gibson bass and we performed our best interpretation of Xanadu by Rush following which there was a mad rush by everyone else to play the thing. Good memories. I am sure you will miss this guitar a lot. I wish I could have bought it.

[@jaedengarcia8249]

I was thinking about getting a guitar and I was going to ask what you thought about making a huge comprehensive comparison of les paul custom v standard v modern v classic v studio v tribute v junior. Giving them ratings on sound quality and playability and such relative to eachother. Then you could go over prices for new and used and give the general value price for each as well as which model is the best overall value. Thought it would be really helpful to people new to this and wanting to buy and just good for that information to be out there from an expert like you.

I learned the hard way about what not to put on a guitar. I sold a beautiful 66 Gibson Les Paul. I wrapped the neck in bubble wrap and used scotch tape to secure the wrap. I thought I was careful not to let the tape touch the neck but I was not careful enough. The neck finish ended up with three circular rings and the guitar rightfully returned to me.

If you check on reverb, there's been a lot of pricey stuffs that just sold

Imagine having it any time lol

[@giovannicerva5522]

Oh no, not the Steve Howe guitar! Oh man, I hope you don’t come to regret that one. What a beauty. Thanks Trogs!

[@Mollohandro]

Great content! That’s got to be a lot of emotion involved with sending off this guitar

Well while he was packing the guitar it really looked like a funeral.

When packing your guitars, I am surprised that you don’t use Fragile stickers, it does make a difference, after 50 years delivering parcels I should know.

He's got fragile tape

That's amazing brother! I always loved Steve Howe. He is in my top 5 all-time greatest guitarists. He's a brilliant player. Im a giant YES fan. I lean toward the earlier albums. And up to Drama. Then I drifted....But Bravo! And good for you!
