You do absolutely amazing work. Gibson custom shop is definitely taking notes from you!
Thank you! 😊
Incredible work, the results looks very authentic.
Thank you!
Master artist! I love your videos! I don’t think anyone else uploads such videos with this in depth detail to UA-cam. Amazing job, and thank you!
Thank you!
You have an artists touch...very well done!
Thank you
Incredible work!...thank you for your videos. Fender and Gibson take note, this is how it should be done.
Thank you! 🙏
I'm really appreciating the irony of perfectly refinishing the guitar to repair a scratch, and then proceed to meticulously scratch up the new finish! Looks fun though! Great video!
Thank you! 😅😅😅
fantastic piece of artwork and incredible content for guitar nerds !!
thanks for sharing !!
Thank you!
Outstanding work Sir.
Such an Art, so amazing, so beautiful.
Thank You for sharing.
Thank you!
This is absolutely outstanding. Amazing work. You are blessed with an incredible talent and are a master of your craft. Blown away by the results!!!
Thank you!
Very nice work. I did notice some things that are red flags that tell me that it is not genuine, but it will probably fool some. For example, the lacquer chips would have a smooth transition, and the pickup covers would have more wear from the strings, palm muting, etc. A thinned mist coating of clear lacquer on the body would help smooth it out.
Some how I think you brought that guitar to life. The transformation is amazing to me.
My fave relic is the Gold top mutt. I want one like that. Some day il do one up.
Your work and approach is simply the best. Thank you for sharing 🔥
Thank you!
Thank you very much for showing us how to do relicing the right way.
Thank you. There will be even more detailed videos on my Patreon. www.patreon.com/8bombcustom
Brilliant!!! I even love the funky Billy Gibbons Just Got Paid inspired guitar music.
Thank you!
Always a pleasure to watch... and I always learn something.
Thank you!
Wow my friend.. you are a true artisan.. such great guitars you make…keep it up
I’m not a fan of relic guitars but THIS is beautiful ! Looks real. 👏👍
Maybe you’re just not a fan of bad relicing.😉 This is excellent work, like you said.👍🏻
Well done......your an artist.....
Thank you!
Excellent results. I'm going to be ordering a set of your pickups soon.😊
Thank you 8bombcustom.com
I really enjoyed these videos, I’m not into relicing but yours is a masterpiece 👏
Thank you!
I can’t wait to get mine it’s in the painting process it’s so close!
That looks real. Awesome work
Thank you!
Great work & thank you for video.
Great job! Picked up some very useful tips. It's hard finding all the right pictures to get certain angles I have found.
Thank you!
Beautiful work! My beard isn’t impressive enough to use this guitar, but I can dream.
Thank you!)))
Fantastic recreation - I would dearly love to see you do an in depth video on spray a 50's style Gold Top finish
Brilliant work!
Your an amazing skilled artist
Thank you!
Excellent work. Pearly Gates is my favorite Les Paul.
Thank you!
Pure art!
Thank you!
Fantastic job on this Les Paul! I wish you were local so I could have you do the same to mine. Great job with the video and the backing tracks were cool.
Thank you!
What a job man !!!!!
Thank you!
So going by the video description, I've gathered that the guitar here is a Les Paul Classic? I'm curious because that really huge control cavity route was unfamiliar to me. I'm used to the routing for an R9, or original 50's models. Is that how they route the cavity on all of the Gibson USA production models? Is the bottom of the cavity angled to match the top? Sorry, the geeky builder in me finds this stuff super interesting, haha.
Amazing. Hard to imagine at the end that it started as a '90s LP Classic O_o
I wish I was in your country. I need a proper mentor 😂. Have you tried the steel wool and vinegar solution for ageing wood? Your videos are great. I spend so much time looking for valuable info about antiquing instruments. Your channel is the best I've found online. Many people do not want to share their knowledge. I appreciate you being open, and helping others learn.
You are a true artist! Amazing.
Thank you
Great work! What is that compound you apply to the wood before you add the oil paint?
Color + isopropyl
@@8BombCustom thanks for the reply! You do great work! I’m right now experimenting with acetone/isopropyl and toner to age a pickguard. It works very well! Great technique. Do you mind if I email you sometime?
@@mgcnashville6615 Thank you! 8bombcustom@gmail.com
Fantastic attention to detail on rounding off and making the worn finish areas seamless to the rest.. truly looks like 70 years of wear.. QUESTION? when working with acetone either stripping finish or working to dull the finish.. how do you prevent unwanted reaction with the ABS binding? i thought acetone melts ABS very quickly.. especially when removing finish? perhaps you are taping off the binding in this case? cheers!
Hey. Thank you. This is a common question I get asked. Indeed, the binding is softened by acetone. But if you work carefully, then problems can be avoided. After drying, the plastic becomes hard again. It does not make sense to cover the binding with masking tape, since acetone will dissolve the glue, the tape will come off, and the dissolved glue from the tape will penetrate into the plastic and change its properties on the surface.
Amazing work!!! Really nicely done!
Thank you!
@@8BombCustom I have sent you an email, about a job if you are up for it :)
Not sure I’m a fan of the serial number change... but your work is phenomenal!
Stunning. Loved the music throughout as well but didn’t recognize it, can you share the artist and song names?
Incredible.. unreal.. skills bro.. lol wow perfection
Thank you!
Another master class !
That’s a beautiful job!!
Thank you!
Awesome video buddy learn so much from you
Thank you!
You’re fucking awesome bro. A true artist👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👌🏻What a world class masterpiece you’ve created.
Thank you
Just truly fantastic!
Thank you!
Fantastic work
Thank you!
@ around 15mins did you stick that guitar into a mini fridge or some type of heater?
Its mini fridge
is it just a coolbox or a fridge ...please how much degrees ? and how to get this nitro without the soft maker stuff inside ? great work you do ....special kind of art ......thxs for the vdo`s
Thank you
Nice work. Loved it
Thank you!
Wow, very good job!
Thank you
I love your work!
wow! your aging job looks really good!
Thank you!
Amazing work!!
Thank you!
Awesome work! Hope you had a nice Christmas!👍😎🎸🎶
Thank you!
@@8BombCustom yep!
Amazing work! And yes Gibson custom shop could learn a few tricks :) These looks way better!!
Thank you!
Do you think I can crack the finish on a 2015 Gibson Les Paul? with hot and cold? or is the finish too hard?
Hey. I don’t think it will work. Gibson Factory Varnish is too soft. But you can try. Only without heating. Several cycles of freezing at minus 20 Celsius.

That looks incredible but i am surprised to see you did not Recess the pickguard screw like Gibson did in the 50's?
The screw for the metal bracket that the guard attaches to is countersunk into the guard some and not flush with the pickguard on old 59's.
Thank you for noticing this.
WOW!!! Well done!
Thank you
Unreal 🙌🙌 .. killer job
Thank you
great work
Thank you
Around 1982 or so I went down to 48th street in Manhattan N.Y. looking to buy a strat. I was given one piece of advice, ask for a pre-cbs. When I got there, I was told all the stores on the block were sold out, some Japanese businessmen went from store to store buying every pre-cbs strat they had. I tell this story because I'm sure they bought all the best conditioned, best looking guitars they could find. The truth is, most guitars aren't as beat up and battered as the heavy relic jobs that are done these days. I have no objection to what you did in this video, you are being honest to the guitar you are duplicating. But most people who play guitar take care of their instruments, yes, over the years, dings, bumps, scratches happen. It's called honest wear. I'll leave the heavy relics alone.
He is making it look like a working mans guitar.
A famous working man who did 300+ gigs a year with one guitar. Not a normal guys pride and joy that comes out once a month
Your a master man ! id love to send you a guitar
Amazing details looks cool as f
Thank you
Nice work
Thank you!
Chibson no doubt, I've got one just like it.
i wish you were closer i would have you do some of my guitars
Thank you!
Just could have just as well and easily became the Joe perry 59 that Slash owned and filmed the November Rain music video with. My dream guitar.
What is the song at the end of this video?
This guy is legit 🤌
What was the name of the first song in this video?
Not sure, but VERY similar to Rare Earth's - I Just Want To Celebrate...which ROCKS!
I would love too see you take an epiphone les paul and give it a vintage makeover!
I did this this year with a Japanese copy of Juno's es335. It, like Epiphone, was covered with polyester varnish.

Nice video
Thank you!
The early les paul classic 1960's are great candidates for these makeovers. If you get a plus or premium top then there you go. And 91-93 are solid mahogany backs. I have a 91 and its amazing. Also, if anyone wonders why a true historic gibson costs so much...look at the labor hours that goes into something like that...Geez.

It was in this video that I worked on the Classic Premium Plus '96. At the beginning of the video, I entered the wrong year. This guitar will be on sale soon.
Now I have the Blue Jean Blues
amazing résult !
Thank you!
@@8BombCustom how long did it take for the whole process ?
@@delcuze It's like painting. Sometimes it takes a couple of days, sometimes a few months.
The relic is good but the shading is more like the Joe Perry Burst!
Thank you! In this video, the shadows are still dark and contrasting, as the aniline dyes first darken and then begin to fade. It must take some time for the color to fully form.
I want it when I just got paid
awesome!
Thank you!
Amazing
Thank you!
so cool .......
Thank you!
Mmmmm That looks TASTY
I wanted to skip ahead to see the end result but the awesome backing tracks wouldn't let me :-p
Thank you!
PLEASE DO A KEITH RICHARDS MICAWBER!
Didn't do the neck???
Show Gostei Vintage ☠🔱
.
🤘
oooffff!
i bet Billy Gibbons will make you an offer.....:-)...but be warned, he only paid 250.-$ for "pearly" back in the day......:-)
but yours might be actually better than the "original".....i think so anyway.....
😊😊Thank you
I NEED MY CHEAP SUNGLASSES
Shit! Excuse me folks, wrong comment zone. Thought I was on another one with the question about such. Please disregard. 😅
Why not just wear one out yourself? Seems to me like the fake jeans syndrome. I don’t get it. Great work all the same.
Thank you. At the beginning of next week, I will have a video about Relic. Subscribe, it will be interesting. Many questions will be closed.
