The Korina Stratocasters are indeed rare, I believe less than 6 were produced.
The 1941 L-5 Clear was built to showcase Gibson's then brand new guitar pickup, amazing for sure.
can you start doing all the collectors choice line especially gary rossington bernice
My goodness that's just on AUD $100,000.00 😯 The AUD $691.08 shipping now pales in comparison but to be fair is confidence warranted with your diligent packing. 👍🇦🇺
Are you going to take out all you guitars again this year? that is always cool!
He said it was a. Annual event so I’d say he is
Guess not....
Yes,I was wondering about that too. Please do it.
Guitars were made to be played.
The clear L5 might a "demonstrator" model like they do with fountain pens. You make it out of a clear material so you can see inside, which is probably why the pickup has a clear cover on it as well. Maybe it was displayed at trade shows, etc.
yeah, that was my first thought. I suppose it could just be a one off custom order for someone as well.
it also could be a navy guitar, i remember a story about how the US navy used to have aluminium double basses because the soundchambers would develop rot due to the salty water.
perhaps gibson tried to prevent it by using lucite for the body?
The Rumble Seat burst is my favorite but the Birdseye Maple one is a super close second
I am totally down for a review and demo of the thinline Tele in Kelly Green (pick guard is an odd choice, maybe better in person) I now want a Firebird, thanks Trogly!
Jay and the peeps at Emerald City Guitars are only three blocks away from me here in Seattle. G has been a friend for almost 20 years. His shop is dangerous though, to your pocketbook. Sadly I’ve had to sell off some of my guitars as I’m waiting for a liver transplant. He offered to put up the go fund me poster in the shop to help raise money to keep me from being homeless while I’m waiting on disability. I’ve been bedridden for a couple of months but look fwd to your videos whenever you post. I love the crazy firebird you had up last week. That would be a joy to play something that cool when I recover.
Gonna say Prayers for you Mark.
My Wife and I are all to well aware of how painfully long S.S. Disability takes to be approved.
Nothing I could say here will help or make you feel better other than we will keep you in our Prayers.
I watch all the Emerald City Videos, they had that Cardinal Red Firebird Austin mentioned, it was from the Collection of Brian Ray.
As far as selling off any of your instruments, we all do what we have to do and it may just be that is why you had them in the first place, to help out here and now. Once you're back on your feet you can take a stroll and visit Emerald City. BTW, how nice to actually have such a nice brick and mortar Music Store so close, not everything has to be done on-line these days.
Be Well Sir
@@hkguitar1984 thank you. Funny story. When jay 1st opened emerald city he joked I was his 1st customer as my old roadie called me from his parents place in Batavia ny. He wanted to know if I wanted his grandmother’s guitar or whether they should throw it away. No one in the family played so they had no idea what it was. Only that it was in an alligator case and grandma was a guitar player of some renown. We made a deal that if i picked him up at the airport the guitar was mine. He flew back a couple days w a 64 Gibson j150 in original case in need of a minor set up. I told him that it was a valuable guitar and I felt bad about taking it off of him. And he explained that dude sold two guitars that she played as well at a garage sale a few years ago, this was 1996, it sounded awfully like a 335 and a Les Paul. The family sold each one for $20 each. Jay set it up and offered me cash for it, which I wouldn’t except as it was a present from of good friend. I still have that guitar and I’ve written more songs on it than any other guitar I’ve owned. That one isn’t going anywhere!
Those prices are disturbing.
Always dig your channel, I don't comment much at all, but just wanted to say thanks for the killer content and have a great New Year!
He doesn't read the comments
The Gibson F5 Lloyd Loar mandolins do sell for crazy money. They can go for 175,000 to 200,000 with the peak price for a really nice one being 225,000. Even modernly made "low end' Gibson F9 sells for around the 5,000 mark.
A couple years back my Son and I were shopping at Elderly Music when my Son grabbed a beat up vintage Mandolin off the wall and gave it a couple quick strums. I turned to look and listen when he finally got a look at the price tag........it was a 1936 Gibson F10, he carefully hung it back in its place. Price tag was $15,000!
I will say this, it did sound great!
I took the time to closely inspect the headstock binding curlicue, just amazing how much effort must go into crafting such a piece.
Its my understanding the original purpose of the headstock curlicue was to easily facilitate a string-loop strap for playing!
I touched one at Gruhns', they were holding it for Ricky Scaggs. It was priced at $250,000. I touched it,,,,,
Thanks for the videos, Trogly. I always learn so much!
Of all the Zakk axes, my favorite was the Natural LP w/match HS. Trees look fine unpainted, so do guitars. Enjoyed the episode. Ü
If you get into the jazz boxes, look at the history of D’Angelico, the originals made by John D’Angelico and his apprentices from the 1930s-1950s are probably THE standard for archtop jazz guitars. (Norman’s Rare Guitars just got an Excel from 1937… if I only had the money.)
Did you see the video of Rick Nielsen buying Geddy Lee's burst at the Mecum auction for $215,000? He was awesome, he came out throwing picks to the crowd. he's always the best..
A Lloyd Loar built mandolin is like a having a Stradivarius violin. Bluegrass music was invented on a unique mandolin design by Lloyd Loar and built by him at Gibson. The F5 is the archetype of modern mandolins sounds. He only built mandolins for Gibson for a few years.
Bruh what boggles my mind is the outrageous prices of Les Paul Studio guitars recently on reverb and eBay like WTF why? Not even in mint condition most of them are fair condition selling over $1000? Not even ebony fretboards not even premium versions. It’s incredible can’t buy nothing from any of my hobbies right now, no PC parts bc people are scalping, no retro games because people are scalping, now can’t even buy cheap ass guitars that used to be found around $700 not long ago bc they are being inflated for what reason? I bet if I buy one I’m going to go to a luthier and spend more money on top, Damn.
Rant over.
The 250K house I bought in 2000 now is worth 800K plus.
@@jameskrys5286 awesome investment!
@@jameskrys5286 that is a way different thing my guy. we talking hobbies here.
Amazing detail to include the price tags in euros too! Thank you from your European viewers. Happy New Year in advance dude!
The guitars in the Italian shop - the Strat Pro II and the Morello - have suffered the curse of the European comma. They use a comma between the Euro and the cents, so 1799,00 which gets translated in currency conversion as 179,900!
That Kelly Green would look amazing on one of the Eric Johnson Rosewood fretboard Strats. A really dark rosewood with white fretboard binding and that stark green...😍
Austin are you going to do your end of year guitar collection video? Thank you either way.
People should really stop buying from resellers.
Bro most of these guitars are vintage, and Austin himself is a "Reseller". Gibson can't sell you a 1957 Les Paul Custom because it's not 1957 anymore, they will sell you re-issues.
@@rahulmenon4357 Well, it sucks when it’s something that you want and you don’t have fair opportunity to buy it at retail because of resellers. But if somebody will pay $65,000 for a $30,000 guitar then what can you do? Hell, if somebody will pay $30,000 for a $2,500 guitar what can you do?
@@andrewmoseley4029 I feel that way about toyotas now bro
From the research I’ve done, the was a car detailing or painting shop on the same road in Corona California, and Leo would get the custom colors from them. It was actually auto paint.
I had to pause to check out the history behind the Strat listings. The story behind that '58 Strat made me shed a tear man... poor lady and that man had an awesome wife!!
I also saw that telecaster a few months back, very 70s indeed, would be nice if you can review one of those!
Lucite was a pretty new material in the 40s, I can see the shop doing one just as an experiment to see how it worked, how it sounded, and if it might be a viable material for guitars
Right. A 90s or 00s equivalent would be a carbon fiber guitar, or a 3D-printed guitar. Even if it's not enjoyable to play or listen to it'd still be a conversation piece and something of a milestone.
Also note Ovation has used plastic backs forever, and they've had models with glass-reinforced-plastic (i.e., fiberglass) tops that were sold as deluxe models. Personally something about Ovations to my ear sounds like they have old strings. I wouldn't want one, but others seem to.
Wow. Just imagine how well some people could play if talent increased with price paid for guitar.
If that were the case then looking at my guitars I guess I would be considered very "untalented" lol
Great vid as always really appreciate the knowledge
Rick Neilsen of Cheap Trick has THREE of the original 19 made 1958 Korina Explorers. Can't even fathom what any of them go for...especially the one that's still so clean and mostly uncheckered.
I can't believe that Korina is worth that much now. It looks like an old kitchen table to me.
Old kitchen tables have skyrocketed recently
Congratulations Austin!
I don't even have the heart to tell you what I would do to find a 1999-2000 Gibson Gothic Explorer. My parents got me one used back in the day (which they couldn't afford) because they loved and believed in their son and were amazing. Me being a stupid kid, I didn't know nor appreciate what I had. Long(er) story short I don't have it anymore and it breaks my heart that I (surely) disappointed them all those years ago. I lost them both within the last few years and it is my life's goal to get another one. I honestly do not even know why I am going into all this here. Just watching Trogly's kinda brought the feelings up again (which is good..don't get me wrong). So I guess I am saying thank you Austin, for the stories, the guitars, and the show. Means a lot to me and I am sure many others. More then just watching entertaining guitar vids, your passion comes through and is quite contagious. I had not touched a guitar in MANY years (LONG story) and since finding your channel I got back into it. I have slowly been building back up and am pretty shocked how quickly I remember. I am even trying to teach my son.
Have you checked out Gibson TV "The Collection"? Just started watching and it's a great series. The president of Gibson Cesar Gueikian was showing off a bunch of LPCS Silverbursts and the prototypes of the V and Explorer Korina re-issues. Serious gear envy and also thought of you as I saw these first on you channel. I would love to see you do a "reaction" video on these shows. You already do such a great job commenting on the mod shops. If I'm the first one to suggest this I would love a shout out! ;)
Thanks for putting all these together for us.
Happy New Year 💥
This episode was so good I almost started to cry!
I started crying once, plugged an 83 strat into a evil twin, did not have shoes on in the garage and Buzz! 😪
LOL
Too Funny
Funniest comment of the day!😂😂😂
The 1941 L-5 in clear Lucite was most likely a trade show model to show off Gibsons' internal bracing technology. Obviously, given the age of it, the plastics will get darker. I believe Lucite was used to make canopy glass for WW2 fighters and bombers.
You didn’t mention the engravings on those tuners, on that 81 arch top!
Happy New Year and Blessings to all . ❤ 🙏🏻 🎸
That rumble seat '59 burst is gorgeous. All I need is 6 good numbers😁🤘🎸
Hey man I think it’s time to get guitar folks introduced to the wonderful world of Guild electric guitars from late 60s through late 80s , I’m starting to see some serious increase in value for Star fires , and solid body electrics , I think it’s a good investment for the starting collector , the acoustic guitars are great and are often priced right but sometimes you can find a killer deal on 70s electric guitars. Just a thought, love the Chanel , cheers JB
Did you say "only" 30 thousand. That's funny.
$350,000 "relatively affordable" XD
Emerald City guitars that's in Seattle Washington. they usually have some pretty decent guitars. but they Know what they are worth and ask top dollar for them. the person to talk to about mandolins is Jerry Rosa. at Rosa string works here on UA-cam.
Good show trogly some very nice guitars , I do have a ??? I have a EKO from Italy from the upper 60s are they worth any thing its a acoustic EKO Ranger 6 and it is in very good condition too .
I saw one of the cherry custom les pauls at guitar point 6 made in 1960 and shipped to sweden from the factory
Loves this video. Thank you 🙏.
Chris Thile from the Punch Brothers has a vintage Gibson Mandolin which was valued at about 24k. I know that they have gone up in value but I don't know if they cost that much.
That lavender lilac gives me goosebumps- purple guitars make it move!
You can actually influence the prices on guitars with your videos.
I have said this before
True
@@randyheath8566 ok. I was just saying it.
Meh humblebrag is just ... well man, you'll figure it out one day. Thanks for doing some guitars recently that weren't elitist crap, looking forward to more of that kind of material from you again.
I'll be skipping every video you do that doesn't really involve consumable guitars for the modern player. 5 figure guitars are a VERY limited crowd.
One of the owners of the company I work for ordered a 2021 Korina V when they came out. He got it and holy crap it was number 1!
i remember reading that those zw flametop signatures didnt make his approval and was telling people not to buy them as they were unconfortable as the flametop was carved, as in "3d"
Cool vid I love vintage guitars thanks Steve Carrelll
I love your show very informative
What is the current value of a Joe Perry Signature Les Paul In grey?
The FENDER AMERICAN PROFESSIONAL II STRATOCASTER - MIAMI BLUE at Haggerty's is clearly as typo. They forgot the decimal point before the last 2 9s. I live less than a mile from their store and they have a 2021 right now, same model, same color for 1699.99.
Today Trogly steps in for Fluff, on ridiculous Reverb listings......🤣🎸🤘🎸
That Cherry Black beauty is one of just Six, if I can somehow come up with that much money, I’ll be getting it haha!
Regarding that ‘84 archtop… “Gary Josey of Richmond, Va., a guitar collector who convinced Deurloo to build one last 'Citation' jazz guitar for him at the Kalamazoo plant. At $7,000, Josey says it is truly a bargain.
'This guitar is the flagship of the Gibson line, no dealer will ever stock it, they're not easy to get,' Josey said. 'Once you get to know the people and hang around this place for a while, there's a pleasure to owning an instrument of that caliber.'”
The British Guitar Auction Gardiner Houlgate has a 1958 Flying V coming up
Loar mandolins are known to go for that yeah. It's still the archetypical bluegrass mandolin holy grail. Chris thile, john reischman have one. If you listen to john Reischmans, that's the sound everyone aims for in bluegrass
Welcome to another edition of People With More Money Than Sense! 🤦♂️
It boggles my mind why someone would pay that for an Explorer, creating an investment market out of nothing seems so far removed from the initial point of the instrument’s existence to me, I kind of feel sorry for it!
Just start a stock account and you’ll have distorted views on money faster than you can spit! You’d be surprised how you’d act with extra cash and all your needs met. Giving your friends and family money doesn’t last long either. That gets weird too, fast. I used to say the same thing and now I just think it’s a strange world and money is a strange concept.
People like Collecting stuff and people don’t see those collections as having no sense.
Secondly, “investing” - no matter how unpalatable it might be to you - isn’t the action of someone with no sense.
Somebody with no sense bitches about stuff they don’t understand or like by evoking some traditionalist value to lend it more credence. When in actuality, you just don’t like other People having things you can’t have.
Why not focus on the things you like, instead of focussing on the things others like that you don’t? That would make more “sense” don’t you think?
@@jimherleva4541 Cool man, I mean you've spectacularly missed the point of what I was trying to say as well as making sweeping assumptions based on your own self inflated interpretation. Maybe I'll explain it in simpler terms for you, seeing as how being condescending appears to be your preferred method of commentary.
To me the literal point of a guitar's creation is to play it and enjoy it because of that process, a 'traditionalist' in your terms. Fair enough if you want to collect them, I get it and also do it myself, I never even made mention of that. What I don't get is Gibson purposely manufacturing exclusivity with seemingly the only goal of creating an inflated and artificial investment market, rather than an instrument of musical expression. Not even counting the fact that in direct terms the guitars themselves are simply not worth that much on any level. Trogly himself even alludes to this at the start of the video, given that the Explorer in question is not a 1950's artefact like the others listed, but a recently manufactured and deliberate cash in. The obvious point here is they do it because somebody, somewhere will buy them and therefore perpetuate the cycle, after all there's a sucker born every minute. The fact you assert that every investment is an action made through pure sense and therefore a good one puts you squarely in that category.
Instead of focusing on what you think people are trying to say and creating blind assertions that fit your narrative, why don't you try actually engaging your brain, does that make enough "sense" to you?
Cool episode thanks
The red vintage firebird 5 is cool
I have always wanted a Gibson , always liked the Les Paul and the 335. I’m not made of money lol but could you give me some examples of good options to look for. I want to play casually and maybe pass down the family tree when times come.
Fly V is a Ricky Nielsen explorer head stock?
Jumbo Frets were an improvement.
Happy New Year everyone
Happy New Year as well.

So, “The Les Paul” : why does the fretboard look so amazing? Different wood through the middle, between the inlays?
at 1.03 your '58 strat, I thought in 58 strats came with rosewood fingerboards not maple??
Funny enough I was just reading that article, thought I had recognized that explorer!
i had tears of joy when i played my 12 string guild for the first time aswell as tears of sorrow when i played my grandmothers yamaha the 1st time

Appreciate the amounts in GBP and EUR :)
Green and purple match perfectly, they are exactly complementary.
Congrats
ive nearly cried playing a real 51 nocaster. Some of us are just tone hounds and the sounds some guitars make literally send shivers
A Korina feista red strat 😍😍😍
Only 30,000 dollars brand new?😂😂 No new guitar should ever cost that much.
i respect what ya do and am a fan of your channel since beginning but when ya say Gibson is selling to cheap or ya buy all the prototypes and resell them at scalped up prices just takes from the working man i feel the guitar market is for rich anymore your making it harder to find deals for people on budgets before this channel the market wasn’t as high priced that’s just my opinion maybe try to buy and sell some deals to pay forward ya we’re once in a position we’re ya couldn’t afford scalpers prices that’s all i’m saying all the best though i appreciate what you’re doing documentation wise only channel like it
i just feel company’s make way to much as a youtube influencer he should maybe help get princess more responsible so more people can buy into Gibson i respect he made a career outta this but guitars are to be played i understand some are to be collected but 2200 for a Gibson sg 61 i feel he should be pushing Gibson to be more realistic to their every day consumers the fact epiphone is now 900 bucks for their good guitars & back 7 years ago could get a good Gibson for that price makes no sense
Yea man I remember when the prototypes were selling for 2400 and dude listed them at 5400 that was the Thanksgiving day masacre
Yup! Longggg time viewer of the show. I appreciate the program and all the good work Austin puts in. I also understand that this is Trogly's livelihood and he's got a new house and family to support. But let's use your powers for good here, a $30k payday because you've got the right corrections just rubs me the wrong way.
@Mark Galicic punctuation, my guy.
@@slagmaggot i was about to buy one he literally cleaned out the shop i was going to buy one off off him but not for 3x the price just the demo shop i feel was made so we could all get a deal not buy and resell at 3x cost that’s my opinion but feel i’m not only person here if his prices were more realistic i would love to buy one off him because again i love the channel just not scalping & asking for higher prices lol
Can you get a john bolin crazy cowboy billy gibbons played??
If that Zakk Wylde collection was a guitarist with more fame such as Slash, it would not be on the market for 2 years.
14:21 I don't think they "want" to go for a "plain looking top," per se, but the L-6, Super 400, and Citation etc. are acoustic instruments, and the top is meant to move air. So, it's spruce, just as on nearly all flat-top acoustics. And spruce doesn't have flames, curls, birdseye, etc., that I know of. The ES-275 etc. and of course the ES-335 etc. range's top was NOT acoustic so could instead be a sturdier and less feedback-prone plywood, and the outer layer of that plywood could be a flame maple. Google "Gibson 275 flame" and check images for some awesome-looking instruments.
I think the reason you are seeing a lot of these inflated prices is the fact its getting really difficult to buy guitars now. Most places are out of stock and the places that did hold back brand new guitars can pretty much write their own ticket now.
Cool episode!
Dude can you do a video on jackson fusion U.S.A.
There’s no crying in guitar playing!!
Once the celluloid gets cell rot you want to separate it or it will destroy everything. It will also transfer to any other celluloid you have near it
Agreed, at that point its like slowly spraying acetone on the instrument. Something like that you could send to Gibson Repair and Restoration and have them make a replacement from modern materials. Then place the original celluloid pieces in zip-lock bags and in a case all their own.
The celluloid pickgaurd on Austin's Firebird looks to just have red lacquer over it. Take it off and get it away from the rest of the guitar A.S.A.P.
Another very nice video
"Manufactured Collectability" is a great name for a punk band.
So is "Lunch Meat"
The Zits or Tallywacker.
The 'aloha vibe' strat I think is meant to mimic the body design of a national or dobro guitar
Some form of explanation is in order as to why anybody would try auctioning off all those guitars and amplifiers in one auction instead of splitting it up into multiple ones. That seller could profit much more that way.
Try telling that to Neal Schon. I would say that he pretty much killed it with his huge Heritage auction.
10:10? Maybe he plugged it in while sitting in a bathtub full of water and got a shock? Yeee-OUCH! WAH WAH WAH!
That Fender American baby blue guitar is still in their shop for 1699.99.
Initially "only $30, 000 brand new"...ugh. "Collectors" ruin it for everyone.
The Trogly's Guitar Show :D
Are you a collector or a player,could be both .I have never heard you play,so its a valid question. It doesn't mean you should care either way ! Both would be like Disney world for me. How about you,? You are a good source of information,great job !
15:27 their is a fender American pro ii Strat priced at $169,999! WTF!?
Nice! This was a fun video
Personally, I would snag all the zakk Wylde stuff.
