    The most frequent repair on Gibson Les Paul’s. It’s just a design flaw, head stock is angled too far back. Oh man that buffing wheel that to me was always the scariest step! Always afraid it would burn the finish or it being flung out of your hands.
    It’s a pity that guitar repair/amp isn’t paying the bills anymore. I did Iove it.
    This is done to perfection well done!

    • @theo9952
      @theo9952 24 дні тому

      Μaybe it is a design flaw too but mainly it's carelessness to blame for such serious damage on an expessive guitar. One should simply take care so that the guitar does not fall on its back, by either putting it back in its case when not played or by just placing it in such a way that it does not fall on the floor accidentally. It is not all that difficult to do.

    • @CallousCoder

    • @jdkustom

      @jdkustom  9 місяців тому +2

      We utilize a low viscosity cyanoacrylate glue to effectively seal the surface of the crack. This technique aids in ensuring that the finish covers the affected area seamlessly, leaving no visible blemishes after a thorough polish of the clearcoat. We hope this information proves helpful to you. Thank you for watching and for your ongoing support!

    First of all, these guys did a fantastic job. But what’s interesting is the number of videos showing this same type of neck break (and the same type of repair). They've got it down to a science. It's almost as if Gibson neck repairs have become a cottage industry. Are all Gibson players just careless klutzes? Or is it a design flaw? 🤔 Makes you wonder.

    Looks nice! But will it look the same after a year of full string tension? I saw another video of a similar repair, where the finish started to crack around the dowels after a while... I think they used carbon fiber?

    • @jdkustom
      @jdkustom  5 місяців тому +1

      Those cracks may have been caused by the carbon fiber, the issue is the carbon fiber does not move naturally like the wood meaning it may create weak points. There are many other reasons for cracks to form, this is just one.

  • @damham5689
    @damham5689 5 місяців тому

    Wonder if it would be a lot stronger if you used carbon fiber strips in place of the wood ?

    • @jdkustom
      @jdkustom  5 місяців тому +8

      We use wood for short reinforcements because it flexes and moves with the rest of the neck, unlike carbon fiber, which can create stress points and even cause cracks over time. Wood keeps everything stable and preserves the natural feel and tone of the guitar.

    Такой престижный бренд, и такое низкое качество древесины. Сейчас, каждая третья гитара, из пересушенной древесины. Сам мастер, куча епифонов и прочего хлама из Юго-Восточной Азии. В основном, ремонт головы

    •  5 місяців тому

      Вы точно мастер по гитарам, а не по болтовне в интернете? В дешевых гитарах как раз недосушенная древесина, пересушить сильно дороже. У Гибсонов с качеством древесены полный порядок, головы отлетают из-за неудачной конструкции (угла, а также отсуствия так называемой волюты). У Эпифонов как раз на многих моделях есть волюта, а даже где ее нет гриф еще с завода склеен и случаи ее отлетания намного более редкие.

      На многих гитарах гриф слеен с завода, и все прекрасно строит десятками лет. Наркоманы пишут подобные комментарии в интернете. Голова на Гибсонах отлетает из-за крайне неудачной конструкции перехода грифа в голову (угол, отсуствие волюты). В туре шас уронить или ударить инструмент довольно высок, это вам не на диване играть.

      I beg to differ. It takes massive skill just to know how to operate that so called "fancy machine", and how is it any different than setting up any other router? Both required extensive knowledge to use. What next, are you going to criticize that he used an air gun to apply the finish? What about the buffing wheel? Perhaps that makes him unskilled? I'm guessing you'd end up cutting your finger off if you had to use these kinds of tools because you certainly don't understand them or you'd have never commented the way you did

    • @joesantamaria5874
      @joesantamaria5874 5 місяців тому +2

      Every reason. The player likely purchased the guitar because he loved the neck. A headstock repair is a very common surgery performed on Gibsons, and although it somewhat devalues the instrument on the resale market, a neck replacement is a No-no for nearly every buyer. Custom carving a new neck, fashioning a new fingerboard, binding, fretting, setup, etc. is likely to cost nearly as much as the value of the instrument in good used condition. Neck replacement is nearly never done.

      Да это Гибсоновское полено. Они специально делают головы без валюты чтобы они быстро отлетали и ты за новой в магазин бежал. Может отлетить если ты ее подпер о стену, или поставил на не самую надежную подставку и нструмент упал. Бывает даже от натяжения струн тупо по время хранения инструмента отлетает (нечасто но бывает).
