There's only one, you are the dragons keeper, Austin!

[@StudioBeast7575]

That dragon guitar is so unique it's definitely a keeper. You'd regret it if you did sell it no matter how much you get for it. I'd keep it if it was mine. Great episode tonight keep up the good work.

[@wadeguidry6675]

I love the purple interior of the L6S case.

[@dougwilson8489]

You should make that RD bass into a fun playing instrument!!!! I think the headstock and the body mods look really cool!

[@roberthokemusic]

Hell yes! Have some fun with that. Great buy and awesome headstock. Excellent video.

[@hippiebiker3399]

Can you splice the piece on the parted out RD onto your other one? Then have it painted, covering the seam. You could then have a pretty cool RD, painted to whatever design or color you want…

[@jda4879]

What happened to the little Wayne guitar??

[@groovydjs]

I have a spare L6S case if you need another. Like the other guy, I have no need, nor guitar for it.

[@michaelaiello9525]

Yes, (about the V) I’m a black and chrome guy more than black and gold.. I also am that L6er who’s original yellow interior case was damaged. It did take a little while but I got a near cherry purple interior L6 case at a really nice price on Reverb for my Cream Sparkle Midnight Special. The purple and cream combo is sweet! The perfect case makes the guitar look almost twice as good.

Established Titles, SMFH.

[@elamon51]

Woot woot Trogly's guitars 🎸

[@josephdalimonte5106]

Having some electronics on the RD bass would be cool! I like the art on the headstock a lot.

[@ghostknifeisland]

is that Gibson sign you bought maybe a guitar stand? like a display stand for inside a store? set the guitar in the cardboard cradle and the sign is out in front?

[@chilloutenvy]

LETS GO TROGLY

[@butchlauer]

Sure bring that RD schematic back to life!

[@jasonaustin3270]

Although it'd be a long drive I hope I'm still around when you open your museum. I'm coming to see it. I love the oddball history and your channel. Been here since the carpet days!

[@Masterfighterx]

Nice first fret woodgrain on the DM V, but again, $7.000 and you have paint issues...

[@gregorrowan5864]

Please do put that bass together! So fun!

[@allan1548]

I'd keep it the same color nat wood and make it a 6 string somehow. That is so rare.

[@eocamaco4053]

Always watched the channel on a tv, heard the opening acoustic lick on headphones for the first time... and damn! That hits the heart.

[@idoruZe]

If i've learned anything from this channel it is that Gibson's quality control is hilarious.

[@l5e2n9]

It's what makes a Gibson a Gibson.

[@jr2904]

Other than just being poor, that's why I'll go with an Epiphone version if there is one. 3/4 the quality at 1/4 of the price. I love my Epiphone custom shop alpine white SG with EMGs

[@jde9095]

fully agree great videos for sure but a good reminder to never buy a Gibson

[@averagecomrade5072]

@@jde9095 I feel like it’s a better reminder to look at guitars in store before buying

[@aprilkurtz1589]

@@l5e2n9 Besides the patented "E-Z BREAK" headstocks?

[@caphenning]

If it’s a bass put it together as a playable bass, pick some really oddball synthesizer electronics package to demo/document/display. It’ll never have ‘condition collectibility’ so may as well give it ‘oddity collectibility ’. The head stock isn’t really horrible, it has charm.

[@witchfindergeneralelectric8758]

You should hit up the custom shop for a 3 gold pickup, gold hardware, fancy neck and headstock inlaid SG Artisan! It'd be a one of a kind guitar for that case.

[@tallpaul1020]

Great episode as usual Trog!! Case Closed!!!! 🎸

[@mariogamutan6513]

I reckon to leave the buttjo bass as it is. I'd make it active with knobs and switches to fill those holes left behind. Definitely it is indeed an artist buttjo bass. It makes a quirk for your dream museum.

[@jonathanhudak2059]

That Dave Mustaine V in black is pretty cool but I like the burst one better. I wish that RD was a guitar and not a bass, would love to see it put back together and be completed and be rid of that ridiculous banjo headstock lol! Love that Artisan SG case and the purple interior of that L6/L5-S case as others have noted. 👍 some good finds Austin!

[@stevejarred6484]

Save the RB bass! I'd love to see how it turns out!

[@pastorrobhutto]

I don’t like the banjo headstock on the bass. Otherwise it’s a nice piece of wood.

[@Kahuna54]

You should put the Dragon LP in the snake pit case!

[@joermnyc]

Been looking for a new case for my ‘93 SG, good to know the original case might have problems (I just had an old unbranded TKL “universal” case that fits either Gibson or Epiphone (and it perfectly fits a Wilshire with the long batwing headstock too! (Tested it personally, it’s kind of freaky that actually worked!)) That lost Les Paul is just a nightmare, and then the refund debacle. Just had that with UPS. I bought a Sire Marcus Miller U5 (probably the best short scale bass priced around $500) from Thomanns, it somehow missed it’s flight from Germany, got here a day late, then lost another day due to a “mechanical failure”, I was like “Did a sorting machine eat my bass?” Thankfully it arrived undamaged. It’s a good bass, they even put in noiseless pickups (unheard of at this price point!), but they used the cheap import tuners that weigh a ton, neck dive, straight down. Have to get those hipshot lightweight tuners.

[@magicman12b]

I’m not a Flying V fan, but that Mustaine flame top is on Fire ! I would rock that if I could afford it

[@jr2904]

Definitely keep that bass and give it new life!

[@nilesanders5110]

Keep it. Put a couple Tele base pickups on it. Paint it dark metallic red. Black plastic.

[@gabrielbruno9826]

Seeing the VOS finish on the V can someone tell me what it means when you see a description having inconsistent VOS? Light on the finish when sprayed ,buffed up to much in areas?

[@ryanteague2133]

Yes! More short videos would be fun.

[@nathanielvargas3863]

That black Dave Mustaine V looks gorgeous and I’m not a fan of solid finishes

[@kentlangham5811]

Lack of a case was one of the reasons I passed on the last L-6S I looked at. I do love the purple interior though, it makes the natural finish guitars look great.

[@kelroundell6304]

I love the last case. I would never let it go.

[@davew8542]

Great QC again from Gibson on the DM V!

[@davidbreitwieser3591]

Hey, not a guitar but Wera make tools, and they make the cutest little guitar packout kits with some pretty cool items, you should try and reach out and review one!

[@paradiswest4395]

I think you should build out that bass Trogly style. Something cool and different.

[@boarderking133]

How do you get/afford all these guitars

[@philmanson2991]

Just bought a framed Ladyship title for my sister's dog, whom we call Lady Willow, anyway. Now, it's official!

[@russdesaulniers3112]

The RD was originally intended to be a John Entwistle sig bass.

[@between2guitars331]

That ebony V would be a perfect guitar for a Raiders fan!

[@brothermike434]

The banjo headstock bass is a wall hanger. Anything else is good money after bad IMO.

[@vernonhoover1387]

Bring the bass back to life. Cool to put the dragon in it's right case

[@darrenlawrence587]

The tanline match the bum perfectly. It's a Beach Babe Bass.

[@stkbkr1]

"CRAZILY," Definition- according to Trogly's: when one gets Guitarded in wonder and anticipation of all the new guitar boxes.

[@jcbass2u]

Keep the Bass, throw some period correct parts on it, and just get some enjoyment out of it.

[@aidansrc2724]

i know this is kind of off topic but do you have a main guitar?

[@sixstringer3783]

Take those tools away for that guy who had the RD bass and don't ever let him have any ever again

[@Johnny_Doe]

You need to make a project out of that RD husk and turn it into a banjo and sell it to Steve Martin..

I was about to say bass vi them you scrolled to head headstock.but Rd banjo bass could be sweet

[@gilwood7530]

I'm sorry , but I LOVE IT !!! Add more craziness to it and have fun ....that same weird art on the pick guard

[@TM-ev2tc]

You could do a Garage Band instruments series with that bass guitar.

[@galerae947]

So, that fancy "free" case was actually $600? Wow!

[@joetheman74]

When you opened the case on that Mustaine the first thing I thought was damn that thing is dirty for a new guitar he's going to need to clean and shine it up. Then you tell us that you actually paid for it to look like that? I've got some dirty old guitars you could buy.

[@rosbyduhart5884]

Did he say as a player & going to a gig? That RD bass/banjo looked like a cut was performed on the buttend too- right where the back strap button would be.. Busy as he is where does he find the time to gig? I probably didn't hear him correctly but be cool seeing him playing(face too) on stage somewhere.. Hey just dawned on me I can't recall ever seeing the trog's face?

Nice épisode man. I like that you delved into the case side of things. I’ve never really thought much about the different cases but I like the artist series one. Also i’d spray that bass for ya it’s just I live to far away so maybe not. Have it painted. Transparent deep blue or something. Could look cool.

“Free protector case… only if spending $50,000”… was this a hint at Greeny?!

[@musicauthority9939]

If you have access to all the Bass parts restore that Bass. because any Gibson Basses are far less common than Fender Basses. being as Fender is the undisputed leader in Bass guitar production. and Gibson Bass guitar production is much less common. hell you can't take two steps without running into a Fender Bass. where as you have to actually go looking for a Gibson Bass guitar. being as that is the case it should retain some amount of value. even though it's too bad someone screwed up the headstock. but you could keep it around so you can improve your Bass guitar skills. since in your line of work there's nothing wrong with being good at playing both the guitar and the Bass guitar.

[@JammerhakenTV]

I need a case for a 1987 Les Paul Custom Lite...if anybody has one laying around...it must have been a chainsaw gen 2 but with more padding I guess cause the lites are way thinner
