I've got to know why anyone would put guitars they count as prized instruments in a storage unit. All 14 of my guitars are here in my home. I'm going to guess and say that Fender is doing the Mexican made Rocky as a olive branch considering their recent legal issues with overcharging. I'm so used to an SG with a wider neck a slim taper wouldn't feel right. But then again it seems Epiphone is selling this new line as a good beginner guitar. And why not.
I just don't understand why he would have them at a storage facility instead of having a secure safe like Eddie Van Halen's. I'd keep my stuff close to home and not at an everyday joeshmo can get access to
Most storage units are locked with easily pickable lock. So a thief could’ve been opening a lot of units and just come across them. The 2 most popular locks used can be shimmed with a piece of soda can.
The storage facilities I've used over the years were all teeming with video surveillance cameras. Definitely sounds like an inside job, not some git with a mask and a bag labeled ''Swag.''
@@hifibrony Cameras don't really matter much. As I commented to someone else, I know a young guy and girl that were breaking into storage units openly last year, in broad daylight, on camera and they did two days in county a piece. I don't know what if any of the stuff they stole was ever recovered
I keep my stuff at a uhaul locker. Mostly empty cases, old crappy guitars I’ll never play but sentimentally can’t get rid of BUT I also have my few high dollar guitars there as well. This makes me think. On the one hand I can see the logic of how it would have to be an Inside job. The hallways light up as you walk down them, it’s not a 24 hour facility and there’s always people around during working hours and everything is on camera. That said nobody is paying attention to anything at all. I bet if I went there to my own locker and tried to pick my own lock I could sit there with a hammer and chisel for an hour and I doubt anyone would approach me. Pretty sure if you just had the balls to do it than it wouldn’t be a problem. Also if you shut the door behind you chances are good the owner won’t be coming back for a while and won’t realize the stuff is missing. I’m sure at some point they just re-use the surveillance tapes so yeah. It totally wreaks of an Inside job but logically think about if you went to break I to your own. Pretty sure you’d get in without being approached.
I wrote to Buckethead and offered him one of my Gibsons. Still waiting to hear from him. A 1970's Les Paul Recording, with low impedance pick ups and a ton of sound combinations. I think he would like it.
Yes this happens. My inside, heated, "secure" storage was burgled and all my guitar gear stolen (and other equipment). The crooks just went through all the doors to find doors they could wedge open and staff ignored them (or were complicit). The so called security cameras were useless they were just for show. Beware!
What a bummer. Hope the Bucketed one gets his stuff back. And let's all sign the petition for a reissue of the badass sig/studio. It's my favorite signature guitar as well, Trog Dog!
I've just recently been introduced to the musical genius of BH and holy moley...Soothsayer for example???? RIDICULOUS. I hope he gets these guitars back safe and sound...and on a personal note that Epiphone releases a BH signature. Outrageously good!
In 2011 I had 26 guitars stolen on cape cod. And also about $60,000 of other music equipment and personal items. Everything. They caught him with 2 guitars that he had pawned at the only pawnshop in Hyannis at that time, that was really a fencing operation but the two guitars I really REALLY want back is my mid 80s Ibanez Roadstar II in seafood green with chrome original Floyd Rose and my Alvarez PD100s acoustic those had the tree of life inlay. Very personal guitars. If anyone from the New England area ever sees one of those guitars for sale please contact me I had them marked discreetly and can identify them with the right pics. I will pay market value or more to get them back. The acoustic was rumored to have ended up on Nantucket but that was over a decade ago. I bought that Ibanez with the first paycheck from my first job. The Alvarez I bought when I had saved up some money for a real nice acoustic and we fell in love with each other lol
I won’t be flipping my Rocky. Delighted to get a hand-painted Strat connected to one of my favorite artists at a price normal folks can consider. But yeah, if I were one of the folks who bought the custom shop version, I would not be pleased. I saw Harrison play the real one live once!
Doesn't even really matter. I know a kid and his girlfriend that were nicking off storage units last year and were visibly on camera doing it and they did two days a piece in jail. Who knows if any of the stuff they stole was ever recovered
Fun fact: nubone is also just plastic. When I first got my set of nut files and started playing with making them I could get nubone blanks for a buck from my local stores. It's really only Tusq, nylon, and micarta that are "fancy" synthetics. (And even then the latter two are more historical than good.) Bone, horn, and antler are where it's at for the most part.
I work at GC and got a chance to see the Power Players a couple weeks before they launched and they’re awesome. The branding is great; on the box there are four superhero types characters and each model (so far..) has a name and a character. I believe they’re “Mad Scientist Les Paul” and “Rock Monster SG.” The best part is there are two other characters on the box. Perhaps an Explorer and a Flying V?? But they also feel great. They are EXACTLY what I would have wanted when I was 7 years old and obsessed with Guitar Hero and School of Rock.
Natter Net on UA-cam has footage of one of the actual guitars if you’re interested or haven’t seen it yet , just one of them, just so you know, you’re a big broker of Les Paul’s so Just be aware😎
I love the videos, but the whole cork sniffer/collector vibe is getting old. Those new Epiphones are a shorter scale for smaller/younger beginners. Not everyone is buying guitars to collect and/or flip. Most of us buy them to play them.
I enjoy Austin documenting collector guitars, as it's something different from the too many channels promoting the same gear on it's release day. Seems like a genuinely cool guy, as well; so you may be just envious of the money aspect. ...I am a little, but I also give him props for his success. ...Anyway, I'm really commenting to help you with this wisdom: Life is too short to watch any content you don't like. Go watch something that inspires you, makes you laugh, or a performance that gives you goosebumps...or better yet; go play a guitar you already own and love.
@@Ninjametal basic wisdom in the art of presenting is know your audience, know your product, these guitars are clearly made to be marketed towards children to get a higher quality first guitar experience as opposed to the plastic things some kids get or the too big things some kids get that turn them off to playing. So as a music lover, here is an interesting, inspiring move by a company, and Trogs has children he could have seen this, but instead he did not, he completely missed the original intent and wanted to look at them through the parameters of a high dollar full size guitar or a travel guitar intended for adults. Going back to my original point, know your viewer, most viewers are not in the bubble he has been in of high dollar Gibson flips and over priced belt buckles. Most of his viewers are loyal, don't watch for the musical abilities but for the information with personality, however every now and then, a back to earth moment is always needed, and you my friend don't have to be so defensive ninja
Dropped a comment about this in yesterday's video. I would be devastated if I lost one of my guitars which is why my collection is right where I can see them in my man cave. I know Brian has had a lot of health issues so that could be a big financial burden. Sucks that people would do that.
One of the most infamous steal was Jimmy Page's Les Paul Black Beauty which he used live in late 69' early 70'. You know it cus it's the one from from The Royal Albert hall January 70. It sounds bitching on Bring it on home.
@ 8:33 Have an Epi Express, Vs New Power players Binding on Neck and Body, 4 knobs vs 2, Covered Humbuckers, new headstock, much better tailpiece (old one is Small Tele style)...big difference!
Closest I get to anything buckethead is when I worked at kfc in h.s. 20yrs ago. Gross fact: the manager would teach everyone to mix the coleslaw by sticking your arms into a big bucket almost elbow deep and then mixing the cold coleslaw around with your forearms 😂
I honestly get ticked off from collectors when they complain that a more affordable version of a guitar they bought is released. Basically says,"I paid out the ass for this piece of wood with metal and strings attached, so why should the average person be able to get the same thing?"
I was able to play one last week. Being a huge Beatle fan I wanted it but I couldn't find the value with playability. It looks great and the paint job is good. I left for someone else to buy.I to see it as a let down because of the Custom shop release... Just like I found with the Rosewood Tele which I did by and flip.
The new Epiphones are obviously targeting kids - as you can see from the advert, so why comparing them to full length guitars? Also Epiphone is an established brand and don’t rip anyone off as you said - so it makes total sense. Plus the way they market it (“first forever guitar”) most likely implies that when you grow up you’ll get a real LP / SG from either Epiphone or Gibson
If these guitars were so important, why were they in a storage facility?? Ye couldn't of stored 10 guitars at home, under the bed, in a closet, spare room, attic or basement...
Imagine this! Gibson and Buckethead getting together and releasing the Gibson BucketHead V with KFC red stripes with some updated specs because the buckethead V was a Jackson.
Many of these are most likely inside jobs. AKA the storage unit owners managers see what you store on their video surveillance. Then they know exactly what units to rob. Next thing you know you ask for video and storage unit says oh video was down. Just for your break in.
The day I need a storage unit is the day I'm selling shit. As a collector/hoarder myself, if my house is too full, time for stuff to go. Or buy a bigger house 😇 🤣
Bummer for Mr. Buckethead! It does beg the question of no insurance? documented serial numbers he could post to put out feelers to any prospective buyers?
Those scaled down Epiphones… they must’ve seen how popular the Fender Japan scaled down models were, I can only imagine if they tried doing a 3/4 sized bass like that Jazz Bass with the 30” scale. (Funny enough Epiphone sold an EB-3 with the varitone knob (unlike the “SG Bass”), but it was 34” inch scale for some weird reason! (Their EB-0 was the historic 30.5” scale)
Trogly. Correct me if I am wrong, but didn't Fender do the same thing with the Rosewood Tele? There was a Custom Shop version that went for crazy money and then they made the American made limited. THEN they re released THAT again this year. So honestly, I think the people who purchased the TELE got it a lot worse. Not only did they make a more affordable version...they did it TWICE. So both the collectors of the Hyper expensive one and the less expensive one(If you call $2400 less expensive back in 2017) got dinged by those who could get it for "less" this year(Again, if you call $2800 less expensive) Plus there is one huge difference between the Tele and Strat from the CS and the ones made for us folks who can't pay CS prices....The hand wound Abbie pickups. Both the CS Tele and CS Rocky have pickups handwound by Abigail. The Rosewood had 65 Grey Bottoms and the Rocky Strat has "60s Style" pickups.
I had many mobile users complain it wasn't playing. The only thing I can guess is that I had a UA-cam edit pending to cut out the extra blank space at the end of the video and maybe that messed with the upload. It played fine on my UA-cam Screen
I they a thumbs up for the right reasons. I don't know of Bucket Head or the big deal of a cut off switch on a guitar. A door bell switch would to fine if it's a on-off-on switch. In my case I'll use a military grade switch of 2 provided by Hughes Airospace Division in Malibu, California when I ran a scrap metal business and bought their scrap and found lots of interesting objects I didn't sell for scrap like an aluminum air valve, nicely made. Used one of them when I ran aquariums for a short lived hobby thank to my daughter. She has the gift of a skilled artist. I'd love to show off her earlier work when she was in high school.
My local guitar store got a rocky strat and the owner was talking to me about it before it was actually announced and said it was a $2000 MIM strat and I laughed
HAY TROG, WHAT OR WHO IS PLAYING THAT RIFF AT THE END, AND OR WHERE TO GET SOME ? THANKX FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT, AND THE TIME YOU TAKE TO MAKE IT ! JOHN
The epiphones are great buys. I don't know who bucket head is but I don't like his les Paul's. Sorry they got stolen. The mex Harrison strats fender can keep them
you would think, someone that has their own signature guitar would have a better place to store thier prized guitars, than in a storage locker where it's always damp and humid, and let's not forget walls are made of thin corrugated steel sheets lol JS, Sounds more like a scam than anything else.
Fender is slowly gradually upping the price on their mims by doing mim sigs… doing it for a couple of years now… inch by inch - the Troy van L’s, primal screams, E.O.B. strats, wong, probably the j mascis tele’s, these Harrisons, and I’m sure a bunch more I’m just not thinking of right now. But I have already been noticing this trend. Im on the fence about ‘em so far…. Ida killed for one of those rosewood tele’s tho (USA’s?) at $3 grand… I must’ve been snoozing. Too late b6 the time I heard about em.
I hope Bucket can find his guitars again!

Totally

Hahahaha the tea bucket... same shit. Also the Gatorade coolers in a fab shop. All stirred by hand... and forearm 😂
Man that makes me feel sick just thinking about it.
I'm excited about the power player! It's almost exactly the scale of the real fender short scales and I love my duo Sonic's from the 90's
I honestly get ticked off from collectors when they complain that a more affordable version of a guitar they bought is released. Basically says,"I paid out the ass for this piece of wood with metal and strings attached, so why should the average person be able to get the same thing?"
I would think a guy like Buckethead would have a vault at his home to keep his guitars. Unfortunate, really.

Can I find a storage locker full of guitars but like legally
Hopefully Gibson Custom Shop makes some replacements for him and then does a limited run for his fans to enjoy also!
I wouldn't want bad guitar Karma. Good show tonight!
Still wondering the appeal of the Buckethead Les Paul.
I never said anything about that, @@hollyc5417.

@DJ Moose I am an adult and am tempted to get one & put P-Rails in it or some other humbucker sized P90s
I think the big question is why would a musician keep some of his most cherished instruments in a storage locker instead of his house?
If these guitars were so important, why were they in a storage facility?? Ye couldn't of stored 10 guitars at home, under the bed, in a closet, spare room, attic or basement...
I ordered a Rocky yesterday. Unfortunately on preorder.
Imagine this! Gibson and Buckethead getting together and releasing the Gibson BucketHead V with KFC red stripes with some updated specs because the buckethead V was a Jackson.
This one works!
Well done, you earned a Silver Medal today.
I caught wind of bucket getting 1 of his les Paul's back! Was reading an article about it.
If I had had $2,000 laying around I would have jumped on the Rocky Strat in a heartbeat. Too bad I bought a different guitar last week

Please review the power play! I love playing my little old short scale Airline, so I'm very curious about the new Epiphones.
Gibson, C'mon........Damn right. That Buckethead guitar is amazing
This happens more then you think….secret is don’t use storage lockers
At least his Air Jordan ESP is in the Hard Rock Café 🙏

I cant believe that’s your favorite signature guitar. Suck that happened to him though.
It would be awesome if Gibson would reissue the Randy Rhoads Les Paul as well
I noticed their website states • Sounds Better, Stays in Tune Longer - than a real Les Paul ???
Odd marketing
Wonder if those little epiphones would make good slide guitars.

I’m probably going to buy one of those Power Player SGs. 22.5ish is my favorite scale length which is particularly funny because I’m 6’2”
My local guitar store got a rocky strat and the owner was talking to me about it before it was actually announced and said it was a $2000 MIM strat and I laughed
The man with daily guitar information needs more information!🤪
If he reaches out to you that would be sweet. Maybe he needs a 90s studio.
Need guitar information
hope Mr Head gets his rigs back.
HAY TROG, WHAT OR WHO IS PLAYING THAT RIFF AT THE END, AND OR WHERE
TO GET SOME ?
THANKX FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT, AND THE TIME YOU TAKE TO MAKE IT !

The epiphones are great buys. I don't know who bucket head is but I don't like his les Paul's. Sorry they got stolen. The mex Harrison strats fender can keep them
Is gibson gonna release more of the buckethead signatures? 😭
you would think, someone that has their own signature guitar would have a better place to store thier prized guitars, than in a storage locker where it's always damp and humid, and let's not forget walls are made of thin corrugated steel sheets lol JS, Sounds more like a scam than anything else.
There are many different kinds of "tiers" to the blanket term "storage locker." Some are quite nice
I wish that they made the power player guitar in a left handed version. It would make a great beginner guitar for my 8 year old nephew.
Somebody must have known his collection, was there
Why was this uploaded twice?
@@RByrne I was second the first time 😂
Fender is slowly gradually upping the price on their mims by doing mim sigs… doing it for a couple of years now… inch by inch - the Troy van L’s, primal screams, E.O.B. strats, wong, probably the j mascis tele’s, these Harrisons, and I’m sure a bunch more I’m just not thinking of right now. But I have already been noticing this trend. Im on the fence about ‘em so far…. Ida killed for one of those rosewood tele’s tho (USA’s?) at $3 grand… I must’ve been snoozing. Too late b6 the time I heard about em.
no way the big 2 want to give a deal......
yeah a silly paintjob makes a guitar sound better , hence makes it more expensive
The info is out there. Look ! Natter !
Well shit! That’s where my new explorer has gone!
We need to make sure Bucket Head can buy a few $900 Gibson Studio's on EBAY. Start the fund raising now!!!
Storage places have security cameras up the wazzoo. Unbelievable that this type of crime still happens. I bet some of them are insurance fraud!
Hate a damn thief..... even more reason for Gibson to re-release the Buckethead Les Paul.
