Hi all. This is my guitar and I just got it back. Let me say WOW! The video doesn't show how good that repair is, not even close. If I didn't know it was there previously Id probably never see it. Dave is a real talented man using what appears to be a very impressive product. I never realized such a nice repair was even possible without completely refinishing the guitar and somehow making the wood re-appear.. then getting the grain/appearance it has ? Also, I never expected Dave to even attempt this repair on my guitar, He did it because he actually cares about the guitar he works on. I was hoping for just some simple repairs but he went way above and beyond that. Not only does he give us great videos we all enjoy but he provided me with my favourite guitar ready for another 30+ years of enjoyment. Thanks Dave! Oh, and when he says "Be good to each other" at the end of his videos, for some reason that sticks in my head and Ive been living by it. So far, so good! PS the guitar really does play like a rocket! I cant put it down.
just another day at the "oops, it's gooched" repair facility. seriously tho, this is the type of repair/setup info that is super helpful . don't you go anywhere Dave, us gooochers need you.
Always fun to watch you work Dave. From the easiest to the most complex job, you are patient, meticulous and always work clean. A+ top quality workmanship all the way ~ with every job.
I, a headphone user prefer the authenticity of the sound. I'm right there with ya Dave and I so want to play with GluBoost and I'll let them know the only reason I heard about them is because I watch Dave"s World of Fun Stuff. :) rock on.
I have not invested in switching over to Gluboost from my regular CA glue but the biggest advantage over others seems that when you use the accelerator it stays clear. Other accelerators sometimes turn the CA milky white. When I want the CA to stay clear I forgo the accelerator and let it dry naturally. So the Gluboost would speed things up.
Great tips Dave, pretty smart for a Buffalo suburbanite ;-) For real though, had my first taste of ratatouille at the Eaton Centre. Made me fall in love with Toronto forever and I'll never dog you for anything except your hockey team for the rest of my life (unless you get an NFL team that is).
Last time you mixed in some white to get a lighter red. The vintage colour set comes with some blond/wheat colour, maybe try that? Maybe it was just too dark with brushing on the dark stuff before. Well, hindsight is always 20/20...still better than the huge chunk missing. HEY, it looks pretty good after the wheel of death. Also, dark chunks in wood are often just in there. Make sure you put the glue back in the fridge. It'll last longer that way (around 5°C is fine). They'll last about a year. Let them get to room temperature before using them. If you cool regular CA glue, it will take longer to cure, so you'll have more time. I'd love to have this stuff, but it's just too expensive when you just use it for 2-3 guitars and the rest goes bad for around 200€ (all glues + spray + one set of stains excluding horrendous shipping + taxes in germany + taxes in the netherlands O.o...20%!!!) I mentioned you in mail to the gluboost guys.
Always start lighter than you need and add colour as you need. Its nice to find out you won't need to use much of the tinting agent so it will last a while.
You could also leave that piece of guitar string in that tip so that it will dry and when you go to use it just pull a piece out and she's ready to go again
full kit with markers and then there's the kit you can get to replace what you use and what not but yeah that stuff works good I got a present for my mom while I was working at that furniture store and I dropped it and broke it so I repair the brake before I gave it to her for Christmas and to this day you can't tell any repair was done I didn't have to tell her either I repaired it back in the early 80s she still has it
mr7wi I does look like an Artist. I am not sure where Ibanez Artists' were made (factory), but this Aria is surely a Matsumoku guitar from the early 80's. I have two Matsus. One is a tobacco burst Washburn Tb4 that looks very close to this guitar. My other is black Les Paul Copy by Aria.. The finish and quality of the workmanship is very good on both guitars, but the electronics were crap. I gutted them and replaced it all with Duncan and CTS. The TB-4 looks very much like Bob Marley's famous guitar, but it has a bolt on neck. I rescued the Washburn from a pawn shop for $75, but the plastics were warped to heck from the AZ sun and some goofy lefty gooched it by flipping the nut. Two of my favorite guitars - for sure. If you are looking for a Matsu sleeper, I believe they also made Vantage guitars. Cheers Dave! Nice work. Long time viewer.. First time subscriber and commenter! Enjoying the Cavender meat seasoning too.
Holy crap, dude. That's an impressive list. 'Jumper' was a fun movie, I liked it. The ending left it open for a sequel, though I haven't heard if there'll be one.Did you have any interaction with Samuel Jackson? If so, what's he like?
I used to work for a company that did antiquing to furniture and they also had repair kits for any damages or dings that they didn't want the corners of wooden tables snapped off or something like like if you had it like a knick knack shelf and the corner was busted off you could fill it with this stuff match the exact same color with wood grain and finish it and you would never even know there was any damage to this wooden stuff works great I don't know what the name of it. you're probably familiar with it but if you're not and you can find it boy that stuff does excellent job you could fix that and you would never even know it but the way you do it works out pretty good as well
@@onpsxmember one of them I remember and I just looked at it which reminded me of it was Mohawk the name of the company they look like Wax sticks and there is other ones that are like magic markers those furniture kits work good I've used them and you couldn't tell it was ever damage at all color matching and everything was great
I don't remember the name sorry I would probably find it though if I research but they look like Square crayons unwrapped different colors like a waxy material only hotter it's been many years since I use that stuff but I was pretty good at it I'll see if I can find it the company that I work for a may still be around I can call them and ask them maybe I'll let you know
You're thinking of a shellac stick. You melt them and burn them in a spot. Shellac would be the normal fix for this and it's what i'd have done, too. Burn in would be faster, it sticks to any prior finish (CA does, too, I guess) and it doesn't contaminate the air like CA. Lest anyone think shellac could be toxic, it's used as a surface covering for candy. If you don't have a shellac stick, a can of blonde shellac would cost about half of "glu boost, and you could build it just by dabbing it on the surface and letting it dry. Just like the stick, it sticks to anything, dries hard and buffs out nice. A *quart* of it is half the price of 2 ounces of "glu boost", and it has tons of uses (as a sanding sealer if it's dewaxed or surface finish in general that can be repaired indefinitely with nothing more than alcohol and more shellac).

So let this be a lesson to you people that think you can just - wait. Hold on. What was I saying again?
Ha ha ha!

Amen
I think it's perfect , a little reminder to everybody , IT WENT THROUGH A FLOOD ! and Dr. Dave gave it CPR and it's back to making Music
That's an amazing job with the Glueboost.
Dave the man of super patience , great job,
Always fun to watch you work Dave. From the easiest to the most complex job, you are patient, meticulous and always work clean. A+ top quality workmanship all the way ~ with every job.
Beautiful guitar. Great restoration in parts 1 and 2 Dave. Great work as always.
Yay! New paper. Just like new strings. Love your videos!
Damn David that is a mighty and I mean mighty fine repair! Great video really enjoyed it. Thanks
It is an amazing new product that's for sure.
You make it look sooooo damn easy Dave. I know I'd be thrilled with that job if she was mine. Thanks for sharing brother.
Peace!
That glue boost stuff works pretty dang good.👍

Good info,thanks Dave!
Yes thats the stuff it been many years since ive used that stuff and i was good at doing thoughs repairs thanks Dave
Great work Dave.
Another brilliant lesson. Thanks Dave.
Thank you Dave for doing these videos. Very informative.
"Son of a Sea Cook", Arsenic and Old Lace?
Great fix Dave, you did a fantastic Job on it, Cheers
Wow! Looks great!
Great repair Dave!

Looks great Dave ,good job man ! PEACE
I have this exact guitar with everything down to the color! Also, have a bad switch and pickup. Aria are a quality, great playing and sounding guitar
Nice work Dave. I kind of like the Glueboost, but I keep wanting to call it "Gooboost". I need some of both
There is never a Dave's WOFS video where I don't learn something. This is no exception; bootifully done, inside & oot!
...see what I did there?
my favorite part "F@#k that's brown!"
Last time you mixed in some white to get a lighter red.

Good job..And thats a beautiful guitar.
Glue boost looks like some good shit. Pretty cool
You got a great result there Dave.
Always start lighter than you need and add colour as you need. Its nice to find out you won't need to use much of the tinting agent so it will last a while.
Wholly-smokes Buddy that was an awesome job, be sure ya pat yourself on the back or drink a cold beer, either way
Came here to say THIS! Leaving satisfied. +1
Good job Dave!Looks way better You the Maunn!!Have a good weekend Cheers with Beers! Do you have any Picks left over how much for 10? Later.
looks great !
Good work on a finicky job.
Great job Dave. Watching in the UK
Gluboost like the Colmans English Mustard guy said 'i made my money by whats left on the side of the plate'. Yes he did.
You could also leave that piece of guitar string in that tip so that it will dry and when you go to use it just pull a piece out and she's ready to go again
I believe that's a CA glue and I have had bad luck leaving metal in those fine tips. The glue hardens to the metal and it wont come out.
@@kenjimac2211 now that's some seriously good glue. yep don't leave them in there,bag of tips
Very nice repair job........
Have an old guitar that could really use some of that gluboost. Will be sure to let them know that I saw it here first.
Looking good
Took awhile to realize you were saying grain and not green!
Tockin aboat Canada eh 😂
Headphone users...21:15
love it.
What does the back of the paper look like?
Impressive stuff
Nice flip-flops...Dave.....lol

painting my first guitar, can i clear coat on top of glue boost and will it look good? or can I only polish it? Color underneath is good. Let me know.
Nice job
What guitar is that? I love it.
Jacob A its an Aria CS350. He has other repair vids on this guitar as well.
Didn't Ibanez make a similar looking guitar? The 'Artist' series?

@@J.Burrough Thanks!
My GLUBOOST just got here yesterday. Gonna fix the shit outa some guitars.
I so need a "Gooch" shirt. Or maybe I'll go with "grundle"? I need gluboost to fix my strat that someone abused it before I got it.
Add a link to Gluboost please...
This is my first dave video and I slammed subscribe at "big poopy shit"
Dave, are there any VOC issues with gluboost
No problems working with cyanocrylate whatsoever... perfectly safe (falls off chair, foams at the mouth).
” Focus you freaking piece of shit " !
So what movies/TV shows did you work in the FX dept.?
Holy crap, dude. That's an impressive list. 'Jumper' was a fun movie, I liked it. The ending left it open for a sequel, though I haven't heard if there'll be one.Did you have any interaction with Samuel Jackson? If so, what's he like?
Repo Men was a total mind scramble. Fun movie to watch if you've not seen it. Methinks it has a satirical facet or a few to it.

Maybe the other product are the mohawk's "ultra mark touch up markers"?
Is the Charvel case it came in for sale ?
if you buy the Charvel model 1a that lives inside it, Ill throw in the case.
Used on open grain type woods
Damn, Dave really hated on this Ovation i just posted in the facebook group

You're thinking of a shellac stick. You melt them and burn them in a spot.
Shellac would be the normal fix for this and it's what i'd have done, too. Burn in would be faster, it sticks to any prior finish (CA does, too, I guess) and it doesn't contaminate the air like CA.
Lest anyone think shellac could be toxic, it's used as a surface covering for candy. If you don't have a shellac stick, a can of blonde shellac would cost about half of "glu boost, and you could build it just by dabbing it on the surface and letting it dry.
