Greco Telecaster type - '70s Japanese electric guitar restoration
A regular at my favorite bar asked me to repair his 1978 Greco. In addition to the poor condition of the neck, the electrical system was also damaged and no sound come out. The truss rod in the neck was at its limit and could not correct the warping any further. I decided to remove the original neck and leave it as it is so that I can repair it in the future, and put a new replacement neck in its place.

'70s Japanese Electric Guitar Fresher Restomod
Переглядів 3,8 тис.Місяць тому
I bought a junk electric guitar from the brand Fresher, which was sold in Japan in the 1970s, at an auction. Most of the hardware was missing and the paint was in poor condition, so I decided to try to make a restomod with the help of a friend. I had a hard time because the specifications of the parts didn't match the specifications of the parts currently sold. My friend refinished the guitar a...

Greco EW-82 T.O.M
Переглядів 3517 місяців тому
At the end of the year, I got another guitar. Greco EW-82 T.O.M is a guitar built in Japan around 2010. It's a guitar that seems inspired by PRS McCarty, but with a detachable neck. Since it has T.O.M. bridge, the response is quick and direct, making it a guitar that suits rock sounds well.

Repairing the junkiest Les Paul type guitar ever
Переглядів 2,5 тис.8 місяців тому
I bought a Les Paul type guitar from an unknown manufacturer at an auction. Although it was written that there would be no problem with playing, the guitar's neck was severely warped when it arrived, and the strings were over 1cm high at the 12th fret. Since the truss rod was also at its limit, I decided to try correcting the fingerboard and making a refret for the first time. It took a year to...

I really enjoy your videos and always look forward to new content with excitement. Great work! However, I personally believe that preserving the original relic on a guitar is important. These guitars shouldn’t be cleaned too much. The patina and mojo must stay intact. With the neck replacement, some of the original mojo and road-worn character might have been lost, which is a bit unfortunate. However great content and keep on!
Thank you! I know very well that it's important not to clean old guitar too much. This time, I wasn't confident in fixing the original neck, so I decided to keep it in its original state and temporarily put a new neck on it, but I'll try to restore the original neck someday!

Hi! Watched all of your vids about yamaha pacifica line of guitar Im buying my first electric guitar and cant seems to find the different between the sound of 112v and 112 vm or should i pick the 112j. Which one would you suggest? Nice restoration btw
Thank you for watching the videos. Personally, I like the slightly distinctive sound of a maple fretboard, so I like the 112VM. However, if you're looking for an all-purpose guitar as your first purchase, the 112 might be more versatile. However, either way, there's no doubt that both guitars are worth more than their price, so you won't regret whichever one you choose!
Glad I found this video. Someone gave me an old Squier Strat that hadn't been used for a long time, but it's very dirty and I'm looking videos to get an idea how to clean it. Thank you.
Thanks :)
I love Suhr the most , im kinda bias ,lol, b/c suhr is one of my dream guitars.
A bit of the chime has gone but probably a better fit for a Les Paul😊
i prefer 012 :O sounded amazing
Cool video. Some of those old lawsuit guitars from Japan play very good. I want to know where did you get that small power screwdriver? I've never seen one like it. If ya don't remember does it have a brand or model number?
Thank you:) The screwdriver I use is VESSEL BALL GRIP Rechargeable Screwdriver Cordless No.220USB-1U
@@croquetteguitar Thanx just ordered one on Amazon. 😸
Do you mind sharing where you got the Gold tuning pegs? I have an Aria Pro II Custom that needs that exact set. PS - great job by the way.
Thanks :) I don't know the exact model number of the pegs I used for this repair, but they are made by Musiclily. Maybe this one www.amazon.com/Musiclily-Semiclosed-Epiphone-Electric-Replacement/dp/B015J0OY66?ref_=ast_sto_dp&th=1
A strat guy that I am say that the nasal sound of covered hunbucker dont sit well with me
That is a drop dead gorgeous looking Classic brother. Beautiful top and finish on it. As soon as you slapped those nickel covers on, you made that sucker look every bit as beautiful as any custom shop R9 does at first blush. Good job man, great guitar!❤
Why would you put it before the overdrive instead of after?
Because he wants to mute the unwanted String noise
Takanaka Blue
😎
А "колокольчик", крышечку, чтоб закрыть анкер на головке грифа, почему не поставил?
I'm impressed that you noticed that. Actually, when I installed the nut, the cover somehow interfered with the nut and I couldn't install it. I'll think about a solution soon.
@@croquetteguitar 😀👍
Superb work! What an amazing transformation! ❤❤❤ Nice playing at the end.👌👌👌
Thanks :)
The paint work... 😐
Well done! Love the gold hardware! How did you cut the plexiglass? You just kept going with the box cutter until it went all the way through?
Thank you! The cavity cover was made by roughly cutting the Plexi glass with a cutter and then rounding off the edges with an iron file. (8:09 -)
"Restomod". What a stupid word. 🥴 Guitar looks killer though. Rough finish but I love that blue. 🤘😎🤘
Thanks 🤘😎🤘
Nice work with the frets, however I would have left the paint alone. I believe it would be a good idea to consider re painting the top again.
Thank you. Although the refinish didn't go well in some areas, I'll keep it like this for a while as a record of my first attempt and think about repainting it someday!
so much effort and then you do that spray job, my man why??
We wanted to create something unique look this time, so I asked a friend of mine to paint the guitar with an image of an old English pub sign.
Very nice project 👍🏻
Thanks :)
おみごとです🎉
ありがとうございます😎
Bro you had pretty guitar ❤
amazing comparison!!
動画やnoteを拝見しています。 丁寧な編集で、生まれ変わって綺麗になっていく楽器を観ているととても楽しいです。 最後の試奏の時に演奏されるオリジナル曲も何気に良曲で、いつも心地良く聴いております。 これからも動画を楽しみにしていますね。
ありがとうございます、とても励みになります。最近は細かい部分が気になってしまい一本の修理にかける時間が長くなり、投稿のペースが落ちてしまっているのですが、これからも投稿していきますので見ていただけますと幸いです。
Going for $220 now. I still think its a good value. How's yours holding up?
Somehow that PLAYTECH sounds the best of all 3 to me. Maybe not as comfortable to play as others.
Nice !
You should have replaced the switch while you had it torn apart……my 2 cents
If only the body weren't poplar.
Post the link to buy it thanks
Amazon
Link to buy??
Perfect sound, donner👍
NO difference...strat.😮
I think the difference in sound is not big. However, the playability was completely different :)
And now? what is the difference? You can't buy skills!
i bought the pacifica 012 and arived 3 days ago.. like the feel of the guitar..
Thank you! I love it so much I memorized the tab 😊 Please give us more!
what song is that on 2:42 ? that sounds amazing dude
Thank you. It's a song I wrote for this demo, and it doesn't have a name.
Over the sratacaster it's boring 🎸 every musician has or not has one . Same goes with all other High End Guitar's 🎸 Boring 👍🏼
Noteよく見てます 今何本目なんだろう、通常メンテに加えてリフレットも出来たらもう古物商取って事業が出来そう そうなったら100本なんてスグ行って人生も変わりそう
Note見ていただいて、ありがとうございます。ようやく50本を超えたところで、意外と100本だとまだ人生が変わらないんじゃないか、などと感じ始めているところなのですが、とりあえずこのまま100本いくまで頑張ってみようと思います！
that's tone was on fire
Thanks :)
thanks.
Nice one! I had a few greco's, and all of them were absolutely great.
Thanks :) I'm a Greco fan, and this guitar is in the top three Grecos I've ever owned.
That was really nice, son. I'd like to hear more from you.
Thanks :)
How different is this compared to squier classic vibe tele?
It feels like a completely different instrument. The Classic vibe has a more typical Telecaster sound, and the Bacchus has a warmer sound. I feel that the Classic Vibe has better finishing quality as an instrument.
Made in Japan?
It is made in Indonesia.
Did you tune yamaha pac012?
212 slightly better for smooth sound
Yamaha pac 012 !
Gorgeous guitar! I've just starting looking at these. The matte green one caught my eye. A step down from this I think, in their line-up. But then I saw this nice deep blue... I want it! LOL Don't need it. But want it. Seems as though the pick-ups aren't great, based on your comments, and others. I'd change out the bridge pup. But this is a cool guitar! You play great, too. Subbed.
Covered vs uncovered is more about esthetics. Little audible difference. I can barely hear a difference and certainly not in a band context.
