Great work! I love seeing these old guitars being given some life again, keep it up!

Yep $5 bucks camp fire guitar oh i mean burn it

The date stamp on the neck heel doesn’t mean “5th July”. The 5 denotes that it’s a Precision Bass neck. A Jazz bass neck would have a 7 instead. I believe that the color difference under the pick guard is due to Fender not spraying the red along the bottom edge of the front of the body because it wouldn’t be visible. Probably just a cost-saving exercise.

Vintage or not, The DS-1 is worse than the Metal Zone

There are applications for BOTH

😂😂 The modern one has cleaner distortion and is better filtered, sounds more like an Overdrive pedal....but if we're looking for raw Distortion and a muddier sound.. which is what distortion is all about..the analog 80s pedal wins😎

Mine 🤘🏻😁🤘🏻

Thanks for the rundown and inside look. I bought one in 2018. Looks exactly like that one, same butterscotch finish.

What's that scribble? I'd get that off professionally.

I have a 2008 USA-made SG Standard in Heritage Cherry. I was informed it had P89 and P90 pickups, but they look remarkably like those on that black SG. Not that it matters, imho, they still sound great! I bought it in 2009 (it came with a hard case) and I must have looked after mine a bit better than the owner of that black one! No dings or even buckle rash. I've never looked inside, so I don't know whether there are any bugs in it! I was also informed that my model was a 'rebuild' of the '69 SG... and had double-dipped pots. Any thoughts on this?

I think mine is pretty good. I used it at a wedding last week people loved the sound. And I was playing the silent guitar at that.

I have a 95 wine red so dark it looks black ebony board Chrome hardware bought it brand new in Spring of 96 at a Guitar Center over stock sale. When they were normally 799 I paid 649. Still have it turns 30 in July. It's done over 1000 shows

There’s no need to take the board out. Just heat the same end of the cap connection in this video and push the cap wire down.

I just got mine. Im from Malaysia, yeah it also out of stock here, but somehow only one shop is selling, and it is at retail price! I dont know what to feel, buying only after knowing it should already be discontinued. What if the new one actually will be better and price be similar, like many of their amps? 😅 But well what done is done, I got to contend with what I have right now

Speakers to small

I bought mine last week. Got the wine red. Can’t wait to play it

Если не видно разницы, зачем платить?

I have an 03 SG faded that I ditched the 490s and instead got Seymour Duncan 59 and Custom 5. Upgraded it to .033 mojotone caps Love it to the moon and went with grover tuners over the klusons, better tuning stability. I also have a super rare 99 SG Deluxe with the 3 mini humbuckers, I had to salvage that with mini p90s and a seymour duncan sm3b. I thought the bigsby looked out of place so I had a vibrola trem and locking tuners with a bridge with rolling saddles to keep tuning stable. Both guitars are my main axes

Slight differences in pot tapers could easily account for this

Got a 2008 blue chamelion most comfortable and best sounding guitar ive had out of many!👽💀👹get one!

its chibson. Why bother?

Thanks for the video. thinking about doing this to a "worn finish" les paul. not sure what clear coat it with.

Nice, natural relic. Fake relics sell for 3 times these

Excellent review. I own 3 juniors and this is by far a superior instrument. The only downside of my particular guitar is the action cannot be as low as I prefer. The strings touch the pole tops. This is likely a neck angle issue. No worries, still my favorite. A great guitar , custom shop quality at a very affordable price.

9 hole weight relief on these. I've got a '96 in white.

The Peavey T60 was my first guitar, a 16th Birthday present from my parents. I had carved my initials and a heart on the back of it. I sold it and its original case at 19 for $400 when I moved to NY. On my 26th birthday we were visiting my hometown and stopped by my cousins house and in her mini house she had a bunch of guitars hanging on the wall and I saw one on the wall and asked to see it. When I flipped it over it still had my initials and heart on the back💛 Her husband had bought a bunch of guitars from a man in Kentucky. She insisted I take it home with me, that it was meant to find me again. This time I’ll never let it go.

Bc Rich had a high end low budget line, and this IT series fit in the upper middle ground. I had the NT Warlock and it was amazing, I think the ones that got bad reputation were the really cheap models. Their higher end models were great!

I have this model but put a Bare Knuckle super massive P90 on mine silly me really was fine with the gibbo pick up really

I have a Hamer Scarab tune-o-matic I retrofitted with aspects of both: the Classic 57 Plus and the 498T. I'm the usual Floyd Rose/EMG/Seymour Duncan/DiMarzio pointy black guitar guy and as an all-round pickup the 498T is one of the best pickups I have ever played for rock and metal. It can do rhythms as well as solos. It is slightly mid scooped with a tight, chunky bottom and a top end that cuts through without sounding harsh. The 498T has more clarity and fullness than the 500T, which can be a little shrill and thin. The 498T's versatility is why I have it in a fixed bridge guitar that I can quickly retune for rhythm tracking. Arriving at the Classic 57 Plus in the neck took some experimentation. The regular Classic 57 didn't have enough output to match with the 498T. They would sound fine for recording purposes but if you switched pickups mid-performance you would notice an output drop. Turning the Classic 57 Plus upside down so the pole screws faced the neck and placing it in the neck position resulted in a pickup that sounded very complementary to the 498T. The Plus is also tuned slightly so it cuts through more on the upper mids. This solves neck mud. Both pickups were nickel covered. I used 500k pots instead of some of the 300k pots found on some Gibsons. The 57 Classic Plus in the neck sounded very "Appetite for Destruction" era Guns 'n Roses and would be comparable to a Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro bridge model or an EMG 60A in 24 volts. The 57 Classic Plus is an Alnico II pickup, whereas the EMG 60A is Alnico V, but they all sound very similar. The thing is, the great tone wasn't about Gibson "tone wood." The Scarab was a $200 2008 Chinese import budget model that was produced right before Fender bought Hamer and ceased production, not a "real" 80s Scarab. I had to replace the factory plastic nut because going to 10 gauge strings even in standard tuning created buzzing on open strings. Once the nut issue was resolved, it was a fine guitar. The guitar is nothing special beyond the shape being hard to find these days. Gloss black, poplar/basswood/alder that takes solid colors well like most production guitars, and a rosewood fretboard. The tune-o-matic bridge and the set neck construction (as well as the 24.75" scale length and 22 frets) make it sound more Gibson-esque than a typical shred stick. I think the largest contributors to the tone are the bridge and set neck construction. That said, *Here are the disadvantages with Gibson pickups.* 1) Cost. Gibson will typically charge you more than EMG/Seymour Duncan/DiMarzio for their pickups. *If you want 4 conductor wiring, you have to buy Gibson aftermarket pickups.* Pickups taken from production guitars to my knowledge are only two conductor. These two conductor models are the ones you will most often find on the used market. 2) Lack of tonal versatility. I have connected a variety of my Gibson pickups to the Seymour Duncan Triple Shot, which permits series/split/parallel operation. *Gibson pickups do not change their sound very much when the coils are split or used in parallel. So the extra 4 conductor wiring you are paying for is somewhat wasted.* If you compare these to similar competitors like the Seymour Duncan Custom/Custom 5/Custom Custom (Alnico 2) line, those pickups create a variety of sounds when in series/split/parallel. Additionally, the 57 Classic/57 Classic Plus are vintage style pickups and use single conductor/shielded braid wiring. I wish my 57 Classic Plus had four conductors. However, it is my understanding that the 490r/490t and 57 Classic/57 Classic Plus are largely the same pickup except the latter have 4 conductor wiring and are less patterned after vintage PAFs. *Here are the advantages of Gibson pickups.* 1) Series tone. *You will probably either love or hate Gibson pickups immediately.* For me, the 498T was so good that its lack of versatility when split did not matter. It makes one sound really well. Competitors like the Seymour Duncan Custom 5 have a huge midrange hole, while the Custom can sound thin like the 500T. The EMG 85 (in 24 volts) can sound mushy in the bottom and squashed on the highs, much like a Seymour Duncan JB. 2) Branding. If you go to sell a Gibson guitar with Gibson factory pickups in it, it will probably bring more than a guitar that has been modified, even if the new pickups sound better. *Edit: avoiding buying something marketed simply as a "vintage PAF" because a PAF can have many sounds.* There were a variety of PAF sounds from the 1950s-70s due to inconsistencies in manufacturing, winding, and materials. Some are underwound, hollow, and bright--better suited to jazz. Others are much darker with a richer tone. Yet others like the Seymour Duncan Pearly Gates have a sharp attack and break up more easily. To me, "Sweet Child o' Mine" is the definitive Les Paul neck PAF sound, and this was done with a Seymour Duncan Alnico II Pro. The Gibson 57 Classic Plus has a similar sound. Other "PAFs" like the Seymour Duncan 59 can sound really bland and boring or hollow with a mid spike. I like these better for jazz. They are uncovered which may make a difference. The main thing is try a pickup before you buy it if you can. Don't just go by the PAF label. Hope this helps.

I bought the Version 1 from Reverb 2 years ago. It was a discontinued product when I was trying to find one. Luckily a guitar store in Israel accepted my offer. The Version 2 is probably the better product if you compare them side by side. But I went with the V1 because the USB port on the V2 makes it look more digital and less analog. It's gonna look outdated many years from now because USB versions always change and improve. Also, I'm a Mayer fan and he's been using the V1 from the beginning lol

I knew an SG could growl - I just didn't know how HARD.

Excellent thanks sir

V2 preserves the highs

Japan 😊

I have the version 1 - it's a great pedal. They sounded pretty close to me, so I would consider the sound quality a wash. I agree with your purchase based on features!

V1 is much fuller

JUST reset your Bluetooth not the phone reset, i Guess reset is wrong word, just turn it off and then back on Bluetooth only, save ya some time

I found the latency became too long if I used wireless headphones AND wireless guitar. Good to see that someone had better luck with it.

We know how to open a freaking box!

Wow- that really sucks. I LOVE mine. Hope it comes back. I really appreciate the Acoustic amp. The Go sounds great and super convenient.

The vintage one is a bit more complex. It has more harmonic overtones.

huh. i have the 80s Japanese version. guess i should sell it to get a new one. sounds way better

Once upon a time, there was a blind listening test. People were placed before the lightweight but non transparent curtains, and some music was player from behind the curtain. There were lots of discussions on different soung sources, cheap and expensive, transistor and tube-based amps etc. But imagine some auditioners were not quite satisfied with one of music sources. Ther said that sound picture was not cleae enough, no volume felt, could be better dinamic range. Imagine their faces when the curtain was open and there was a real orchestra behind it! 😂

I'd personally choose the vintage. It's got a deeper growl. The new one sounds little thin which is great if you're playing Norwegian death metal but in hardcore, hardcore punk, metal core and metal not so much. Never been a fan of that thin sound. Give me that growl anyday

Great vid! Just a quick question,will other eq pedal work as an alternative to the k and k pre amp, as long it has bass,treble,mid.controls? Wanting to do this but K and K is not available here, just curious if the behringer pb100 (pre amp booster)pedal will work? Thanks!

At 1:15 you show a ga40t "Mariner". I have one. A 64

Japan is the best
