    I almost forgot about Boys of Summer. Man what a great song. Can't believe it Glenn Frey is gone. What an amazing band that was. Those guys are all looking pretty old. Don Henley's 5 years old with me. What a great time for music. Always listen to Steve Perry sing just last night I couldn't sleep haven't listened to journey in a while. What A Soulful and amazing voice he had. And Neil Sean and that Les Paul. All those people back here or just amazing

      I always loved this tune. It’s got some tasty playing in it and really sets a cool mood/vibe. Oh, and yeh man! I got Steve Perry’s album a few years ago. He sounds great man. It’s a really well written and produced record and he’s still got it. Love the old journey. Man the live stuff from that era is tremendous. Neil and Steve were quite a duo. Great times and music. 😎🥂

    Huge thanks Marty! I'm buying 2 of them for my fender mij's which I've had for almost 40 years. Love the 59 baseball bat bro!!! You have the nicest equipment. NOTE TO MANUFACTURE! You picked the right guy to demo your awesome product. I feel Marty is an up and coming channel to recognize so take care of this guy.💪🎸✌

    Man Marty... When you dialed down the treble on the bridge and it had that sweet low tone and then punched through when you hit the high notes... Dude! SOLD! Imma' get a kit for my electric martin. I've had the same issues for a long time on that guitar... It's got great pickups but it cuts out mostly because it's old as hell but I love playing that thing. I also love that Les Paul by the way. I can see it has a good owner and good home :) ( Oh, before I forget .. I saw our queen of rock last night. Ran into her for a minute. Get ready for "Return of the Debi!" LOL! ) So nice to see her and hug her neck! Tangent Kings forever! Time to Come in from the rain, Pour me a round and give me 5 umbrellas!... To GO! 😂( if you know, you know... )

    Marty, as a tech/gear nerd, I really enjoyed watching you get that badd ass LP Classic back up and running. I really like hearing those Bryan Adams riffs coming from your hands. Yeah, that neck pickup sounds sooooo womanly, clucky, creamy, and velvety smooth. Another great one. 920D is a great company. I've bought a few parts from them. Top quality! Easy install. God bless you Marty. Skipper too. Happy 4th to you both.☺💜👍

I had never heard from them before but glad they reached out. Excellent stuff. Thanks for the nice comments on the guitar and tone. I love the way the 57’s sound in this Les Paul. It’s very inspiring. Have a great 4th man. I appreciate the support. 😎☮️

    Thanks Man - I just used this video as a reference to change the harness on my 2004 Les Paul STD using the 920D. The neck pick volume pot was cooked. Other than fixing the volume control cutting out i had no idea how much cleaner the guitar would be. I might have to adjust some of tones in my Line 6 Helix Rack to add back a little gain for my edge of breakup tones

    What's the deal with those Les Paul Classics? I mean are they like the 50s, and 60s Les Pauls where they have the original wiring, and solid body, or are they like the modern ones with weight relieved body, and that push/pull circuit board thingy in the control cavity that everyone takes out and replaces?

  • @AndyK.23
    @AndyK.23 2 роки тому +1

    Cool upgrade/install. So a "husk" is just the body and neck, with all the hardware removed? Wonder how/why Stratosphere gets these - were they unsold, seconds, or?

    • @Ranch5150SkinWalker
      @Ranch5150SkinWalker  2 роки тому

      They sold all the parts and made the money on parts. Stripped them all down. You could get a husk for $1100 gloss finish classic. Then if you bought all the stuff separate it would be around 400-600 bucks. Plus there was no hard case. I had everything except the the tuners and bridge so I was pretty set since Gibson pickups and a wiring is pricey.
      Recently they had EVH Wolfgang’s.
