I am a retired Luthier. Did anybody else see how perfect the decals were on the neck, and no rust on the tuners. Even a blind man would tell you this is a big FAKE.
Its fake restoration
From the moment the scissors come out.
Luthier too and I agree so much : it's a RIDICULOUS FAKE !!
also notice how the pickups were all conveniently still usable, despite supposedly being left outside for god knows how long he wanted us to believe.
my strat from 2014 is having a neck pickup that has low volume output, frets almost flat from constant bending and playing. I put that strat in my room and it doesn’t even get exposed to sunlights. i wonder if this guy can help me rewound my pickups.
Smelled at rat the second I saw all that sawdust sprinkled onto the guitar. Baloney!
I’ve been a guitar enthusiast for 30 years. I’ve seen guitars in every conceivable condition of wear and disrepair. This is the most hilarious attempt I’ve ever seen of someone “restoring” a “dirty” instrument. Yes fellow commenters, it’s fake as hell.
It's sacrilege to do that to a guitar to make a video. 14:13 Serial number 11102308572 = (11) year 2011, (10) month, (23) factory Indonesia, (08572) serial number.
Just passing by to say that Jesus loves you and wants to forgive you of your sins, repent and surrender to Him
@@sr.satoshi9987 I am without sin. Also, unless Jesus is deputized, I'm not even surrendering my ID.
The neck is pristine, it's a fake.
I am very interested in those never-rusting strings 😂
😂😂

Exactly!!
When you prep/Fake something to make a video. just put a text in the beginning that states this, youll keep the respect. for example "Faked for entertainment purposes"
This is so fake that it gave fale a whole new meaning
And what *competence* do *you* have to claim something ( *provable* ) about craftsmanship as shown in the video...?
🤔
Just a question.
@@28076130513B Its very easy to see that the guitar is newish and all the issues are hand made.
Look at the strings, no rust whatsoever.
The body besides covered in dirt is actually nearly pristine.
The wires have no sign of aging or wear n tear, which they should show it.
The pickups lack any sign of forgotten
Ruin the giutar and then restore it
Genius

The Philips radio resto is interesting. The Epi guitar looked as though someone heat torched the new body and covered it in sawdust.
1 - Take a new guitar
2 - put it into a sandblaster
3 - wait 4 10 min
4 - et voila!
5 - restore and hipe
Except that's not how a sandblaster works..
Whew, for a second there I was afraid he'd forget to put ungrounded shielding tape under those humbuckers. What a master.
You're spending that much time in a $200 Bolt On Neck Chinese Epiphone. Wow, you're nuts.
This is fake. The "old" strings he's cutting at the beginning are new. Real strings from a neglected instrument would be a rusty crusty mess.
This is so fake it's not even funny. You clearly did the damage yourself then threw a bunch of dirt on them and wrapped it up like someone shipped it to you. If you're watching this and you believe he really got guitars in that condition you're way too gullible.
Had the same thoughts 💯
Why would he do that ❓
@@DH-tj6tfcontent?!
@@DH-tj6tf For content
thats how content work love, yall want more videos so they have to improvise. if he was to do a vid with actually messes up guitars it would most likely be a video once every few months bc ppl dont rlly trash or take bad care of guitars
Lol the clean shiny strings
Fake af. Those strings looked clean at the cut point.
yep its fake the paint is coming off and yet the wood looks fresh with no dmg😂 even the strings looks clean and what's more the top is so dirty and yet the back looks clean and with a little bit of dusting and it will look good again, even the wirings looks new despite not having a cover on it the color didn't even fade😂
This man left this guitar outside for 1 month, and now he has restored it....
Guitar looked like it was in a wet basement for years, but the strings looked brand new!!! And since when is Fender using plywood bodies?!?!
Parabéns pelas restaurações todas lindas e maravilhosas!!! Restaurar e criar faz bem, imagino o prazer que vocês sentem.
you are truly extraordinary.. 👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼 salute
Yeah. I noticed the lucite plastic knobs show no yellowing either..usually a telltale sign of age. Looks like a newer guitar covered with paint stripper then put into a deep freeze for a while.
Pure comedy. Thanks for the laugh, restorer person.
At the :40 mark the neck is noticeably cleaner than at 2:40...
This hack must've gotten more of that crappy sand. 😅
а в чому сенс брати нормальну гітару, жучити її паяльною лампою, присипати брудом і видавати за Old?))))
Сенс в тому, щоб ти переглядав це відео
I guess my only question would be regarding the strat. Why no grain filler before you painted it? It seems like that wouldve been better for that glossy wet look?
Fake or not, I still enjoy seeing it restored. I am not so cynical.
Just enjoy the process of restoring something to its close to the original piece. Thanks for sharing.🙏🙏🙏
Literally watched the whole entire Fender resto for the headstock repair and you just bought a different headstock >< lol
Congratulations friend, great job, I'm from Brazil 🎸🎚️🎛️🎵🎶🎼🎹🎤🎙️
🤣🤣🤣 It took longer to make it look dirty than it did to "restore" it! 🤣🤣🤣
so you think he will crash a ferrari just to restore it afterwards?? for what, for the clicks?? ffs, wake up man.
And what *competence* do *you* have to claim something ( *provable* ) about craftsmanship as shown in the video...?
🤔
Just a question.
Ferrari? That is a piece of crap Epiphone, in perfect shape it’s worth about $150, so yeah, I’m telling you this video is fake and you’re a 🤡🤡🤡
@@M4r1a_Schn33 Why are you saying 'the clicks' like that isn't how people make money on UA-cam? It's a blatant fake restoration job, done with very little skill or research.
@@M4r1a_Schn33a Ferrari? This is a 2011 cheap as chips Epiphone, like seriously, you're looking at no more than £150 new
The walking machinheads screws are a funny touch. :)
I think thisvis my live. But i'm not a luthier. Perphas i will do some learn nowa days on this kind of videos.
Gracias amigo!
The refret was clssic.......acting at its best😂😂
Congrats! It's amazing the technic that you have to rust a guitar. The restauration is fake.
Wha? (Not even worth the "t") . Agree with all the other comments but wanted to add how the restoration expert here didn't even know how to lift knobs. SAD!
Perfeito e excelente trabalho profissional !
You performed about $375 billable hours worth of work on a $110 (used) guitar.
Reinstalled terrible tuning machines and electronics.
Why?
I scored one of these at a Flea Market for $20. I did all kinds of stuff to it just for the experience of getting to do it. I even dropped a set of SD invaders in it just because I can. You don't need reason to just do a thing.
Because this is nonsense.
For content?
Quando o cara desembrulhou e limpou a poeira já achei estranho... não deu outra, é fake 😂😂😂😂
Do you find a lot of abandoned guitars on the beach?
With magic self cleaning stings and logos.
Real o no me parece un gran trabajo, yo veo estos videos para entreterme pero hay gente que sólo quiere criticar y no tienen ni la mitad de habilidad que tiene este hombre para hacer estos trabajos😂
Was this guitar rescued from the Titanic?

The art lies in how they manage to get things that dirty, you gotta give them that at least 😂
How many guitars do you have exposed to the elements in your backyard?
Not one screw missing! Incredible.
Very good
What did you spray at 27:04 on the bridge? Thanx
Don't store your guitar under water kids
Exceptional camera work
Como siempre interesantísimo. Gran trabajo.
Restaurada guitarra 🎸😉
Excelente trabalho 😘👍👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I watched both rebuilds. At 2x speed. I enjoyed both. Why not upgrade since you were going to all that trouble?
Because its fake
Oh well.
@@saamo1423
Hey i have a yamaha pacifica (fender knock-off) that i want to change. If i sent it to you, could you do the work?
Do you tested it for radioactive?
Just curious how much you sold the Fender for?
A tip, instead of paint remover … try use a hot air gun and scrape the paint of.
❤🎸❤MY ELECTRIC GUITAR AND BASS ARE GRATEFUL TO YOU FOR THIS VIDEO. WE AREN'T NEEDING RESTORATION, BUT ONE MIGHT COME ALONG THAT NEEDS HELP. ❤🎸❤
I have the same Squier from 90s. I want to do the same work
That neck that's broken was planned on to the squier body to make it look broken and then the real squier neck to that white body comes out so you know its all staged. That neck that he refretted for no reason belongs to that body in the first place so it's all staged.
Too bad because that squier neck looked really cool aged the way it was. Should have respray it white again put the original neck on without refretted and sanded down and put white plastics on it and it would have been perfect and vintage correct.
O cara tomando o maior cuidado do mundo pra não pegar tétano 😂😂😂
Is there a reason you didn't test the neck bend, fret height etc.... this is 90% more important than anything else...
Gibson Les Paul budget variant?
The new stainless steel strings 😂
Great band
Yeah i make up stories too.
From reading all the comments, the guitar wasn't really that damaged. I like watching restoration videos. Is what this guy did, still viable restoration techniques? Yes, he could have been honest about it but if what he's doing is how you restore it, isn't that worth something?
and not one stripped screw ya right LOL
Фендер сделан из фанеры?
Awesome job
Форнитуру нада было новую ставить. Только дерево восстановить.
Saw the exact same video as a yard sale. Fender restoration . So is it a fender or an epiphone
You should restore Tony Iommi's guitar. Chris Holmes also has dead guitars.
you do not clean frets like that
Is it a les Paul, or a Stratocaster?
Кстати, под хамбакерами экранировать посадочные места - абусрд.
Well I know it’s not old because it’s a newer model. But good job
wow its great especially philips restore radio thanks man !!!!!!!
PARABÉNS PELO VÍDEO E PELO BELÍSSIMO TRABALHO, EXCELENTES!!!
carefully wrapped up the guitar with dirt on top. That in itself is worthy of... oh no wait
So satisfying watching these videos.
God bless your work ❤🎉
THAT'S THE IDEA. HE GOT YOU. MAKE A FAKE VIDEO, GET VIEWS, MAKE MONEY...ANOTHER GULLIBLE SUCKER!!
you do great work to bring these guitars back keep up the good work.
isnt the paint remover not very toxic ? isnt it ?
Why did he loosen the bridge posts before removing. Oh yea, and HOW did they unscrew like brand new?
Where did they dig up the Les Paul?🤔
I love the show and I can't believe how the guitars look after you refreshed and refinished them. I had a dream to do this but i didn't know how or what to do. You have a great show and I just wanted to tell that and keep up the great work. Have a Blessed day. 😊
The tune-o-matic bridge was mounted backwards
Never touch a guitar again
Amazing how the strings weren’t rusted up, considering how bad the guitar has been made to look, fake I would say, my strings normally get rusty when I leave it for a few months unplayed, so why were these ok.
🥰🥰✌
what kind of "only natural wax" is it ????
show the "relic-ing" portion please
😮.. so odd. Someone left it out in a rainy mud puddle for a week...(probably less). Then dried it in a oven. Or on a dedicated heatn source..to get the poly finish to flake after water absorbed.. and hit with a hammer. (Yes I also swung a 20oz hammer for 25+ yrs as a carpenter. I'm not trying to disrespect your video. Just pointing out oddities .. then after all that to make it .. idk. ? Like this? Then they went and put on a new set of Strings?!??!? Because when you cut the strings off. They weren't rusted. As a guitarist who does a bit of work on Guitars. I can tell You. Strings rust Very easily...at least signs of pitting will be evident.. but. Hey. It's a fun video.. I personally don't care for pristine finishes.. I play my guitars and prefer them to be. And look played .. but. Hey. To each their own.. awesome wood grain on the fretboard...very visible and distinctive... great video 👍🎸.
.. I'm scratching my head at some of the things I'm watching you do.. like oil the heads of screws a that are merely dirty. Wipe 'em ofc with a oily rag. The threads more than the heads.. but. .. what I find. Strange. Is those tuning keys .. you spent more on electric and tool wear and oil than buying a new set for $14. Or $7. . I get That it's a restoration. But at some point it becomes comical to go the extra mile to get crappy components back to their full luster.... Just Saying..
What is happend whit this guitar . It takes so much time Was it that wort .
Why strings are not rusted?
This guitar was found by Egyptologists during excavations in a 5,000-year-old tomb, along with the first Roling Stones music cassette.🤣
King Tut used it himself
When you spray oil on volume/tone pots, or any electronic parts, make sure it is dialectric oil. Regular WD-40 or the like can damage contact surfaces or short out the current.
...when you love restoring guitars so much that you have to ruin new ones
Похожа на Урал мария реплика
Good job 👏🏾
That was the right call keeping the body in its natural state. Absolutely gorgeous!!

The pre-drilled board for the Epiphone to help you clean all the screws was genius.
I'm filing that idea away for future use.
Pity you could not save the paint on the Epi - might have looked epic with the checking on it.
It's a 2011 Epi with a poly finish. No way that the "checking" is in any way genuine, it would have been a result of whatever ungodly stuff this guy did to the guitar before he "restored" it
The second one looks legitimately beat up. Nobody stuck around for that one it looks like.
he got a deal on the plywood body "Fender Sandocaster" $1.99 , I recon the replacement neck cost 2 or 3 hundred though? 😁
