awesome project, thanks for showing!
Thank you
Gibson should make you opporations Chief over their. Custom Shop . This is the 2nd video Ive waTched and you knocked that SG outta. The park .👍
Thank you!
Tom Murphy is overrated!
Fantastic work Dr Nitro....Looking forward to seeing more of your amazing projects in 2021...
Thank you! We have a lot of plans for 2021: to finally get rid of fascism in Belarus, to make many new LesPauls, and of course there will be many new videos.
WOW ! a refinish that actually looks good ! not like a lot on here that are goofballs taking vintage sg's and destroying them
I waas gonna say you should work for for Gibson Custom Shop but they'd never hire you as you are way more thorough in your work than they are 😁 Love watching these videos dude!! ❤
Thank you
Thank you so much for the English dub!
I've been watching your videos for years, but I'm German, so i never knew what you were talking...
You do such great jobs!!!
Hopefully one day you start a business so I can hold my own 8bomb in my hands!
Cheers!
Thank you! I grew up in Hamburg and speak German, although this is already getting difficult. But English is now universal. Therefore, now I release all my videos in two languages. Russian and English. I think now these are the two most universal languages. In 2021, we have a lot of plans and a lot of new videos.
I love that you know more than one language I'm learning Spanish but I want to learn Japanese, Russian, German, and other Asian languages
Looks fantastic! So much better than the factory finish. Well done.
Thank you!
Congrats on the new guitar, sounds great, and looks the part now. It’s always a shame when Gibson covers up such beautiful wood grain. Top notch work as usual!
Thank you!
Good job
Excellent conversion
Dr N !
Thank you!
hey great job, ....i also re-shaped my sg standard neck when i got it a few years back.
i hated the very chunky D-shape neck so i sanded it down to a slimmer C-shape and it changed the guitar from a guitar i didn't like that much to a guitar i absolutely love
👍👍👍
Geat work man! Looks way better than what Gibson can do with their standard series
Thank you!
Nice job man. Always love your videos. Super cool.
Thank you
Fantastic work.. late 60's/1970 angus young standard is a classic color.. dark cherry.. your reliving is fantastic.. would love to see this done on the 1973-1979 SG's with the skinny but bit rounded neck.. bit of course the bevels were not correct and would need carving.. bit the necks of that era were fantastic!!..love your work!!
Thank you!
Very nice work, it looks and sounds fantastic. Very nice playing, too.
Thank you
Gorgeous refinish!
I also liked the stripped brown color.
Greatly done!
Love your work Dr Nitro 👍
Thank you!
What a beautiful deep red nuance ! Totally different guitar... Well done !
Thank you
Amazing job!
Thank you
fair play to you matey . uk
Thanks for this video, it was awesome, it kicked my ass, Cousin Figel
Thank you!
Im not sure what an SG smells like, but I love the smell of my Les Paul!
Thank you for your comment
I've come across your videos a few times now, and always find them to be very, very interesting, so for that reason I've subscribed! Thank you.
Thank you
Really great result. I have a 2008 AY SG. This definitely looks more like a vintage '67/'68 SG. Especially thanks to the amber in the clear coat. And it's a huge improvement in looks over the original finish and hardware.
Thank you!
Brilliant work and brilliant video Dr Nitro. Best guitar makeover video I've ever seen - my eyes never left the screen. Really amazed at the quality and amount of work you did - with better results than any custom shop guitar I've seen or played. It's hard to imagine how many years you've been learning your trade with all those methods, tools and liquids - let alone your experience and techniques! Spasibo bol'shoye!
Thank you very much!
@@8BombCustom You're very welcome, mate! If you ever take the train to Warszawa (after this pandemic), msngr me and I'lll gladly show you around town. Hard Rock Café here is brilliant. And my lady-friend speaks Russian (born 10km from Belarus border!!!) Got some cool guitars and Marshalls at home, too! Stay safe! 😄
Oh, super. I speak a little Polish. I have been working in Poland for 20 years. Periodically. In late January or early February, I am planning another trip to Poland. We are now completing the reconstruction of the frescoes in Suprasl. By the way, here is another channel of mine on this theme: ua-cam.com/channels/tFqR6_DWLsJdAjq-t4ROdA.html
Since is now we having problems with movement, then I will probably stay for a couple of months in Poland and think that I will find time to stop by Warsaw. Thanks for the invitation!
Thanks for replying, and Cool! The frescoes look great - I can see why you're busy and your skills are in demand! I read your democracy post, too. We're all here with you mate! Brilliant that you'll be coming to Poland. I have a very close relationship with the 3 main guitar (& synth) shops in Wsw, and even before writing my 1st reply, I've been planning to help you have contact with them (if you haven't already) to open up a new channel for you. (1÷1=3 principle) - and also in Sweden. A-aaaand - In the early 80s UK, Gibson's engineers kindly taught me how to professionally maintain (like renovate) my original '61 SG(/Les Paul). For fun (& money!) I renovated a book-matched pair of custom-made Eko 6 & 12-string acoustics and brought them back to new life & sound.😆 Could you please contact me via LinkedIn (My name + Warsaw - Business Coach) - and better Still via FBk (add 'Roderick' as my middle name). All the best!
I'm English and it frustrates me how ignorant we are, most of Europe speak many languages yet we don't. Great work, great video and thanks for the dubbed english. Can't even imagine the work involved! Subbed!
Thank you!
Great looking and sounding guitar. Great job 👍
Thank you!
Very well done!!! A beautiful and well sounding guitar you've built, I like your video. Thumb's up!!!
Thank you!
Superb job man! Great looking guitar!

Ты как всегда на недосягаемой высоте! Могу пожелать тебе только удачи во всех твоих проектах! Я твой преданный поклонник ♥️♥️♥️
Спасибо бро!
This is Awsome man keep it up
Thank you!
That looks fan fucking tastic
Beautiful!
Thank you!
Quite a bit better than the custom shop gibsons hanging on the wall around here, great work as always!
Also makes me wonder if refinishing my “gothic sg” from 2000 would make me actually enjoy that guitar again 😅
Thank you!
another classic guitar.....great finish and good sound....it looks like a SG should look....:-)
Thank you
you are amazing !!!!!!!!! every guitar player whant you to be their neighboor hood !!! greeting from france
Great job ! Superb SG now
Congrat from france
Thank you!
Another fine job!! Wish I could bring you my Les Paul! It needs a make over!!
Thank you! But sorry, i dont take orders for refin now.
You are a GOD of guitar finish ♥️🔥
Thank you 😅
Hey Nitro eres un capo, you are the man!! Tes réalisations sont vraiment incroyables!!! Saludos desde MOntréal!
Thank you!
Esse cara é simplesmente incrível!!! Mesmo não entendendo uma única palavra.
Kick ass work. I sure wish you were close to me in Florida, I have several guitars that could use a better finish than what they came with.
Thank you!
BEAUTIFUL ¡¡¡¡
Thank you!
Cheers from Italy, love your vids man! It would be nice to send you a guitar to finish one day! 😁
Thank you!
I always wondered why would someone finish such a beautiful wood in absolutely black/white finish. I actually prefer heritage cherry or natural finish for guitars made of mahogany. It's very pleasant too see wood grain
Gran video ! saludos desde chile !
Thank you
I like your spirit, this is what i would also do if i had your skills and tools, the sound is more organic
Thank you!
My sweetie
Looks a nice job, like all the videos you put up.
My SG is ebony and I can’t see any grain through it which is a shame, Gibson put the finish on very thick.
I had the Angus USA model before where you could see through the finish but I prefer the batwing version and standard fret markers rather than what was the ‘61 style model with lightening bolts and very washed out fingerboard colour.
I love the SG guitar though, it’s Angus through and through no matter what the spec is, if you want blood ...you got it!
Thank you!
absolute great work. the finish is awesome but you installed the maestro wrong😅
Thank you. Maybe. It wasn't the original Maestro, so it was difficult. In the end, I left only the tail and returned the tailpiece.
Very good video, keep it up, also bring more SG's. Also where is the vibrola from and does it hold up tunning?
Thank you!
Great work as always! The part where you scraped the headstock inlays... Did you remove all the varnish from the pearl? Or just the Gibson factory overspray on the edges?
Thank you. Yes, I completely removed the varnish from the headstock. The thickness of the plastic "veneer" and pearl logo is approximately 1.5 mm. Therefore, it can be sanded.
sweet what's up with the fish shaped instrument that has the barbarian painted on it ?
Queria pintar dessa cor minha Giannini SG 70s
What amp are you playing through? I like the tone
Where did you get the stickers from? I need some of those to cover some holes on my SG. I love your videos brotha cheers
Thank you. I made it myself.
Fantastic! Do you mix the filler with the same powder they use to finish shellac?
Yes. It's pumice.
@@8BombCustom Thank you very much!
How did you do the yellowing in the gibson logo?
Finish coats of amber color varnish. I share all my skills on Patreon at the Maker level: www.patreon.com/8bombcustom
Do you need to use any protection for the face when you are using acetone?
Only breathing mask
If I buffed out my natural stained SG would it be that smooth ?
Maybe
Did you do anything unique to age the SG style knobs?

Questions.... How much does the color change when exposed to UV light and. Is it brighter or darker? And how do you get the yellowing on the logo and binding?
All answers to technical questions with a detailed explanation can be found on Patreon in the Maker level: www.patreon.com/8bombcustom
А на страте китайском (squier) краску тоже можно ацетоном снять?
На всех азиатах покрытие полиэфирное. Такой лак не растворяется ацетоном. В любом случае нужнопробовать.
Dr Nitro how are you? not sure the vibrola is a good idea....They are a hassle to keep in tune stop bar is KING!
Oh just for the Young look we kill our tone!!
I completely agree with you. This guitar has already been sold and we have replaced the original Tailpeace. But the tail of the vibrole remained. Like Derek Trucks.
@@8BombCustom Great work as usual please kewp them coming
Did you relocate the ground wire?
Yes
when you scratch the black color from the logo the logo was white pearl... why is it on the end of the video Golden?
Yes, initially the logo is white pearl. I make a finish layer of lacquer tinted amber. Just like the old nitro.
Y spécialiste from Ibanez and musique orchestre my guitare rénovation and my guitare acoustique and électrique perfect ok
One question: Does the Nitrofinish of a newer Gibson change their color over the years? I once got an SG from 2007 in Heritage Cherry and the finish was darker imo than the finish of my 2021 SG that i bought new. With dark i mean a darker Red 😅
Currently, dyes with low light fastness are used only for customshops.
@@8BombCustom that means..? :D
@@rico4772 I mean that on modern standard midsections, the color does not change over time
Amazing work. What is the price of a refinish like this one?
Thank you. About 1200$, but i dont take orders for refin now.
@@8BombCustom шо?! 1200 долларов за перепокраску? Чёт как-то too much. За эти бабосы можно купить Gibson SG standard в нужном цвете. Что-то я не догоняю за что такая цена.
@@user-lx3dn9bt9e 😊 Как обычно, такая реакция возникает у русскоязычных жителей постсоветского пространства. Ок, еще раз объясню. Моя цена состоит из перекраски моим твердым нитролаком, который я готовлю сам, релик деталей, крио-фрагментация лака, замена некоторых или всех металлических частей. Иногда замена датчиков на мои клоны ПАФ, плюс мой опыт в искустве более 20 лет и опыт в гитаростроении около 10 лет. И я не навязываю никому мою цену и очеь не охотно беру в перекрас гитары, так как есть более интересные проекты. А если точнее, то сейчас вобще не беру заказы. Занимаюсь только тем что нравится мне. И дело не в деньгах. Вобще по моему мнению перекрашивать Стандард вобще смысла нет. Если делать, то с нуля. С подбором древесины. Исключения наверное только узкий круг винтажных корейских копий ес335. Там бывают очень звучащие доноры.
@@8BombCustom ну я понял. Такой "заградительный прайс" - браться за не очень любимую работу только тогда, если кто-то её готовы хорошо оплатить. При наличии спроса метод работает.
Hello my friend. Are you very busy? I have a project I’d like started and you seem like the man! Are you taking work on?
Hey. I do not work to order.
Dr. Nitro thanks for the reply. Have you any tips on removing a poly finish?
First you need to try how the varnish reacts to acetone. You can remove the varnish by heating it with a hairdryer. Clean small areas with acetone. If the varnish does not react to either chemistry or heating, then it is polyester. It can only be removed by grinding and scraping. It is imperative to work in a respirator.
Dr. Nitro thanks for the message and the help. I will give it an acetone test later. Maybe I’ll post the results when I’m finished! Thanks again brother.
а чем вы натираете гитару перед покрытием лаком?
Это порозаполнитель. В нескольуих прошлых роликах я о нем рассказываю.
@@8BombCustom а в каких именно можете скинуть ссылку

@@8BombCustom спасибо
replace humbucker covers need to be wax potted another time, it is important!
Not certainly in that way. In fact, the main thing is that the cover is fixed on the front of the bobbins. I go into detail about this in this video: ua-cam.com/video/gYX52an1yNk/v-deo.html
I would love to hear what you know about this forum about plasticizers in nitro finish, and about the difference between modern nitro and the older formulation, using chemicals that are heavily regulated today. Is all of this true? Would you make a video about this subject? www.tdpri.com/threads/plasticizers-in-nitrocellulose.1058960/
Yes, I know this forum well. there I learned English)) I will definitely publish a detailed video about varnishes again. But these videos, in which I talk about nitro varnishes, can close the main questions: ua-cam.com/video/MaUFovfgjNQ/v-deo.html

I tought you had your TV on...
Now I realize you were'nt speaking english xdd
now, who gots a workshop-room for refinishing and stripping a guitar ?????? now I don´t have it, but I construct myself a SG model type E guitar mahogany body and neck with gibson pickups from long dried timber wood after drilling holes and sanding I give it to a professional painter and he sprayed it with special nitro-zellulose Laquer. after he done his job the guitar smells (not so sweet like within this video) it needs aprox. 2 month until the solvent is nearly gone my advice is don´t buy a new gibson guitar because they use all the same finishing except the custom made but they are too expensive. ich hoffe man kann mein english verstehen !
Danke!
It's a Gibson Yawn 🥱
Amazing job!
Thank you!
