Part two of this video can be seen here ua-cam.com/video/-I8yQMmywN0/v-deo.html . It's on my other channel, Dashner Guitars. I combined parts 1 & 2 into one video. Thanks for watching!
I see what you are doing ... trying to hypnotize us into watching the next installment with a swinging guitar. Lol. Worked on me.
Please give us part two. I am dying for it!!
Part 2 is now up here ua-cam.com/video/-I8yQMmywN0/v-deo.html . It's on my other channel, Dashner Guitars.
@@DashnerDesignRestoration Still waiting for part 3 .......... 🙂
Been watching your channel for a few years and love your restorations. As a guitarist, even better when you move into guitar restorations.😃 intrigued to see how Dashner luthiery evolves…❤️🎸
Thank God we managed to convince you into publishing this video Dash, it would have been a shame not showing this awesome piece of work to the public.
Great job, mate.
CLIFFHANGER!!!!
Nice work so far! Every time I caught myself wondering wtf you were doing, I'd stop and tell myself "He is luthier. Do not question his methods"
Thank you!
LOVE the venture into new restoration territory. Your channel is my absolute favorite but it is even more exciting to see new and different things brought back to life! Especially love the guitar idea. Please do more things like this. But please be careful with those sharp razors around those beautiful hands!!! I am in love with your hands!😉✋🏻🤚🏻
I loved the patina’d look of the post-sand stage where the black was still in the wood grain. Throw a matte or satin clear coat on that and I’d be a happy customer!
I have modified, built bodies, and refinished electric guitars for years......and when you first
said "I will use my furniture refinishing skills to do the job" I thought .....oh nooooo ! ......
but overall you've really done a decent job ! Strangely I kinda like the look of the stripped
body just before you sprayed on the undercoat .......might have used that myself with a
transparent slightly amber finish over top of the 'rustic' rough wood ......but that's me ....
Thanks , great , fun video !
Thanks, wood is wood.
@@DashnerDesignRestoration I also thought it might have been a fun idea to put a clear varnish or shellac on the scraped surface. Cool contrast. But I have tried it on a bedside table and it turned out looking awful, lol.
I also like the look of the scrapped wood before the white base coat.
Patching that larger hole was quite a job. Very cleverly done. This guitar was in bad shape when you found it. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the restoration. Carol from California
WOW, that was different from your 'usual' renovations. Very clever way you filled that bigger hole. Can't wait for the next installment 🙂
What an interesting project! I can't wait to see the finished guitar. 💜
Love seeing you experiment and do something different. Can't wait to see the finished product.
Wow I love your furniture restorations and guitars and guitar restoration is my hobby! My worlds have collided! Awesome!
The moment I saw those two holes I thought about how in the world you would repair them... I always learn something (and new words too) from watching your videos. But this time, wow... I would have never thought about making those kerf linings. Not to mention how to get them inside the bass body. Simply brilliant. You have taken your skills to the next level.
I would have taken the easy way out and would have converted that hole into a rectangle. But, what do I know?
I have been waiting for this video... but I was not expecting a cliffhanger!!!! I want part 2 by tomorrow. 😆
P.D. If you haven't heard the podcast, I strongly suggest you do! 🥰
I enjoyed this video, and I can’t wait to see the final outcome. You should consider doing more of these types of restorations.
This is awesome! Love the furniture but this is great!! Looking forward to the next installment.
This is really interesting, and my goodness, I loved your ingenuity in the way you filled that big hole!
Though I always worry when you use those utility knives, because I know how sharp they are!
I wouldn't worry about utility knives! I've been a paramedic for ten years and only ever seen one injury from them that was bad enough to need my help (and it involved tripping and falling into a ten foot deep hole as well!)
Remember the saying, "cut towards your chum, not your thumb!"
Its looking nice so far! Excited to see where you decide to take this project
Looking forward to seeing the result. The state it was in before, can only be an improvement! Be interesting to see what you do with the neck. If you can get that feeling good, along with the body cleaned up, it's gonna really bring it back to life!
As interested as I am to see the finished product, I'm looking forward to hearing you shred on it twice as much! 🤘🏼
Excellent!! Can't wait to see the finished guitar✨✨
Nice work so far! Pro tip for hole patching; put clear packing tape over the hole, trace the hole with a fine point marker, remove tape and stick it to some 4mm MDF (or similar), cut tracing with scroll saw. You now have a rigid template of the hole which, with an exacto knife, can be used to cut your veneer patches. Ask me how I know! 😉
I'm primarily a hobbyist luthier with very measly woodworking skills, so it's a treat to see my hobby come up in this channel. Very impressive work on filling the input jack holes; I would've never thought of fixing them that way. Looking forward to the next video in this series--it's always a treat to see guitars (or basses) modded and/or spruced up.
Thank you.
You do YOU! That's it! I respect the work you've done over the years and I believe you respect the items you work on also. 'nough said.......... can't wait to see it completed!
Also, I appreciate your working outdoors on such a nice day. It makes for a pleasant & relaxing, soft background sound. 🥰
Love this video as always. Can't wait for part 2 to see what you do with this piece of woodwork.
Can't wait to see the end result! Good selection of bass guitar. 👍
I LOVE vintage guitars. This for me is going to be ambrosia to watch.😘
I recently bought a beat up Super Lynx to try and refurbish myself! Thanks for the video, and the comments explaining your hole-patching techniques!
I really enjoyed watching you take on a different kind of project! Can't wait to see the next installment.
Thank you.
Dang didn’t want it to end, can’t wait for part two 👍
Very nice approach! I like your thinking process. Well-done!
Your videos are very therapeutic. Watching you do some interesting work to the calmness of your voice is relaxing. Your videos might be good for people with anxiety.
Brand new here! Highly interesting! Loved how you did the kerf thing! That was cool. Also big thanks for sharing the tonal qualities of assorted glues! StewMac does NOT publicize THAT information!🤣
I’m hooked! Looking forward to the next installment, PEACE!
Great video as always! Excited for part 2!

I am loving this change and explanation of the instruments construction. Looking forward to the color choice you made!
Thanks!
Hello Barry. Very interesting video. I admire you problem solving skills. I look forward to the finished piece. Thank you. Janice
Fantastic finish. Doesn't matter if you are not a "luthier" as so many of these "experts" are wont to point out. You are a craftsman who's skills translate easily to repairing this instrument. I mean it's not a Stradivarius people.
As a guitar player this is my favorite video yet!!
Great job at taking what looked like someone's trash and attempting to turn it into someone else's treasure.
Looking forward to seeing the final product!
Nothing to question here!You are amazing!!!
Can’t wait for the next installment!!! Love
i'd never question your methods i think they are just perfect ... amazing when finished ...
I admire your guts for entering this field of craftsmanship. As always, your methods are "down to earth" and without any snobbery. This may not be the most perfect way, but it certainly is better than not trying or being afraid of doing it. BTW, the types of glue have little or no effect on the sound. After all it is an electrical base guitar, though I would not recommend these methods when restoring a high end acoustic instrument. But I am pretty sure you know that yourself.
This is AWESOME! I can't wait for part two.
Wow, so excited to see this brought back to playability, nice work !!
Thank You!
I'm not a guitarist or bassist or whateverist, but that shape of guitar - like BB King's - is my favorite looking one. Looking forward to how you finish it!
Gibson ES-335…
Nice job, can't wait to see the final reveal.
Your narration and voice are so calming for me, it feels like watching something on PBS or like a wood restoration version of Bob Ross. Subscribed.
It's fun watching a non-luthier do this kind of work! Totally "wrong" in many ways, but so creative in the approach!
Friend, I’m not familiar with guitar repair or glues to use. I am just astounded that you are using your skills to bring life back to an old soul. I think it is wonderful what you do with restoration.
Thank you.
Looks brutal to start,, waiting to see it finished!
Oh man, a cliffhanger??!! I'm on the edge of my seat lol. Seriously I was really into it and looking forward to seeing you perfect the surface and paint it. Loved this video. Definitely looking forward to part 2.
He never posted it
@@janice5108 he probably will eventually. Let's hope 🥰

You added to my vocabulary with this video. I thank you 🙏
So fun! Bringing life back to her. Can't wait to follow the process.
Thanks for following along.
Hot damn you did a great job patching that huge hole, great job bro!
I have an almost identical bass, that some a-hole painted in almost identical black paint. Can't wait for Ep 2. xx
Awesome work as always!
Look forward to seeing your next part of this restoration 👍🇦🇺

Thank you for your ingenuity and the inspiration
we can't wait for the next installment!
I think this is the first cliffhanger repair video I've ever seen BRAVO!!! I'll be white knuckling it till them. 😱
That will be interesting. I will enjoy to see other musical instruments restored too.
So interesting. So quiet and peaceful, too. I enjoyed watching this from the beginning to the end. 🙂👍🏻
Thank you.
Thank you for sharing all your magic tricks!
Forming the patch to the body, plastic bags inside to prevent over spray…
Boy that was in rough shape wasn’t it? But I’ve seen worst. Looking forward to the next installment!! Thanks for the video ☮️😎

From coffee tables to Vintage Guitars.. now it's getting interesting! 😊
I actually watch your channel for hints on how to finish guitars lol....my worlds collide, keep up the good work!
Thank you!
I was surprised to see a guitar when I selected your channel today. At first, I thought that I was not interested in watching. I am normally looking for furniture restoration videos.
Since it was on your channel, I decided that I would see what you were doing. I'm glad that I did. I enjoyed watching you plug the holes in the guitar and I'm looking forward to watching you give this old instrument a fresh finish.
Thanks for watching.
I’m with you. I check daily this channel among others. I’m addicted to this stuff.
Over the years, I have acquired a couple of dozen electric guitars at very low prices because a prior owner had developed big plans for a guitar, stripped it, realized they were in over their heads, and given up. I have managed to bring every one of those guitars to better than new condition.
Building, repairing, and modifying electric guitars is not rocket science. While I recommend that people avoid tackling a rare or expensive guitar as a first project, the narrator does an excellent job of showing what can be done with some basic skills and willingness to tackle a project.
Hey, I got a 1966 Vox Teardrop! I’m excited to see you restore that guitar!
I’m new…….glad to be here. Thank you very much.
Love the deviation from your norm, while still keeping it relevant to the channel.
Génial le coup du "j'aurais pu enlever le vernis de façon propre mais ça aurait pris du temps, alors j'ai pris le racloir"! Ça en dit tellement sur la qualité du travail...
very nice work. excellent ingenuity....
Very clever idea using the kerfing to help plug the hole.
Hypnotic. Great work
Furniture or guitars.... Always delightful. ♥️
A fun project. Some of these methods would not have been my choice for a musical instrument, but the thought process was logical and methodical. I like seeing people just try stuff. The guitar was jacked up anyway. It's not like you could hurt it.
(The white primer made my teeth hurt a little bit.) It's OK, though. Everything is going to be OK.
Thanks for watching. Can you explain how any of the methods used would be detrimental to a musical instrument? The white primer coat for instance. How is a coat of paint going to hurt an electric guitar? I’m genuinely curious.
@@DashnerDesignRestoration The white primer is going to make it sound bad some how lol
@@DashnerDesignRestoration the white paint wouldn't effect the tone, but I'm confused as to why you'd paint before finishing the wood considering you said the previous paint had sunk into the grain. Wouldn't it be a better finish to really sand it (much finer grit), grain fill it (since it sunk in last time), sanding that back (even finer), and then giving it the first coat? Just concerned that it'll be a pain to get a really good finish on a rough, spongey surface. On the other hand, the constant sanding for a guitar is a real pain in the bum for a casual project.
@matt lang I painted it before filling the grain because the mottled color of the unpainted wood made it too difficult to see the imperfections that needed to be filled. Having it all one color made it a lot easier to pick out the imperfections that needed to be fixed. Since I uploaded this video, I've grain filled it and now have a nice smooth finish for the color coat.
@@DashnerDesignRestoration Can't wait to see the next vid. I like seeing these kind of things come together.
That primer trick is pretty clever. Thanks!
Oooo interesting! And it’s lovely to see an old misused instrument get a second chance at music making!
Amazing old output jack huge hole fix !
good luck , you re very skillful! a nice voice too, sounds like a story teller!
love it, looking forward to the next video

I almost gasped when the binding became visible. What a nice surprise!
Loved the patina before the primer
A bit outside of your wheelhouse, but so far, so good. Thanks!
This isn’t his first guitar restoration video. Go back a couple of years. 😉
Can't wait for the next part!

I have a Gibson A-5 that was painted with black automotive paint a la Johnny Cash. It's great to see guitars brought back from the dark side like this.
