As a Luthier, you have simultaneously managed to impress yet terrify me.
🤣🤣🤣🙏
Same. Every word.
If you're impressed by that, you must be a shit luthier.
Thank you so much for checking out our amps Kaylen! 🤘🤘
My pleasure, thanks for making sure I get my LP investment back 🤣🤣🙏
@@sixstringtv1 😂😂
I am simultaneously baffled at the audacity for someone to actually try this on a real Gibson and also amazed that it actually worked and sounds great. This was an awesome video!
@@castleanthrax1833 That guitar will forever be part of what makes him feel proud about himself. If I had done that, I wouldn't sell it
They just break off easier anyway lol
I mean as far as the pickups are concerned, the only thing that's changed is the bridge.
@@CamiloPefaur Because who would buy it apart from a moron.
This eleventeen kid is killing the Gibson tradition… good
🤣🤣🤣💀
Nah not really.
@@lueysixty-six7300 it's a joke referencing that guy from BC rich
Dude, you win the internet for a day.
@@Zundfolge You're a tit.
Just a few weeks ago, I was at a Guitar Center and saw THREE Gibson/Epiphone guitars in for broken headstocks. I remarked to the tech that somebody should market a readymade kit for luthiers to convert a decapitated Gibson into a dedicated headless guitar.
Strandberg been real quiet since this released
As someone who loves Les Pauls but hates Gibson, I think you just made the perfect guitar.
A Head-Les Paul
Why did you use a saw? The heads actually have convenient perforations inside of them like tearing off a a paper towel for easy removal.
Holy shit. I'm going to buy an early 60s LP and do this!
Why..??!
Just get a modern one (anything from 90's onward).
Early 60 s will cost you stupid money - and the value will plummet from even minor more, let alone something radical as this.
If you wanna experiment...start with a Les Paul that has no pre existing sentimental value. So early 60's model is just a few years after the ultimate Holy Grail year, and considered highly collectible in their own rights... An Epiphone wouldn't be an altogether bad idea...
👆r/whoosh! Somebody doesn’t understand sarcasm.
@@lueysixty-six7300 Dude.
59 is what you're looking for
I've heard many people refer to German engineering as the high standard of execution, little did I know that the average citizen could pull off something so amazing.
🤣🤣
As a Gibson geek myself, I gotta say that’s pretty cool. I might wanna try it now too, Keylan 🤘
Was hoping to see a video about this in my feed some day, the result is alot better than I thought it would be. Awesome job. 🤘😁
You are a Frickin animal - which is why I have notifications set for your channel 🙌
🙏🙏
The fan while you play your riffs makes it all the better!
I think it looks and sounds great. I'd definitely have one for myself. I am a fan of the Les Paul despite it's known and obvious issues. However I'm always a fan of stuff that has a very unique look and feel to it. Nice job on everything, indeed. Well done.
This is the most cursed guitar video I've seen in my entire life. I love it.
Years ago my friend had a broken head sg and I had this idea back then, I'm glad you made it into a reality!
My idea was even to use the locking nut at the head!
Now you gave me an idea what to do with my old epi sg....perfect
You just gained my subscription. Well done sir.
Welcome aboard!
I'm angry! Not because of the work you did to this guitar, but that I'm too early into this video being posted to see a bunch of angry dads in the comments screaming at you.
Great video man! Keep up the awesome work!
Come back later for the angry old men 🤣🤣
@@sixstringtv1 you dirty eleventeen so and so. Let the road trip from US. Commence
I can smell the old American dads running to your house

-Kaylen SixStringTV, 2023
Looks so much better than the first headless Gibson I saw, which had the headstock basically nailed to the other end to use for tuning.
Sweet, you got one of those KD Patented bridges! They’re on lots of popular headless import guitars - Latitude, EART, ALP, Jamstik Studio, etc.
Most people don’t understand how to work them, but they’re really easy to maintain and use once you get past how different they seem. The tuning stability is awesome, the action can be set super low without even needing a zero fret. Not sure how you decided on this bridge, but good choice!
It's definitely a great bridge! I had to use one with tuners at the top cause the ones with tuners on the back would've sat right up against the body and I wouldn't have been able to turn them 🤣
!
Thank you. Finally, some one is doing the only right thing with a guitar Like this👍🏻. Wirklich, sehr gut gemacht. Alles gute weiterhin und viel Spaß.
Solved all of Gibsons headstock issues for em
I'd feel a lot worse watching this video if I hadn't just got back from the guitar shop with the same guitar but a 99. You are a mad lad but it somehow actually works and looks cool to me.
Gotta love Head-Les' guitars.
Well my Gibson never had that head stock break issue because they've solved that problem by using multiple layers of wood.
Continue to go against the grain I love it!
part with him cutting the head stock off should be sent to gibson after the pattern pending been filed..great job also nice shred
As a huge headless guitar lover….. this was scary as hell! I have to say though, it actually looked cool. A headless single cut looks awesome. Kiesel makes some and they look pretty good.
Absolutely hysterical keep coming out with great videos man. It is incredibly impressive at your age what you’re doing I’m in my 20s and I can barely play a bar cord lol. God bless!!
Can you do a video on avenged sevenfold I am a fan of your channel and I want to hear your opinion on the band
Yes! Now change everything else, stick a headstock back on, a 00 on the price and call yourself Ed Roman!
Jokes aside, great video!
My first headless guitar was one I made myself out of an existing guitar. It got knocked off its stand and the headstock broke in two so I cut what was left of the headstock off, bolted on an extra Floyd Rose locking nut and routed the body to move the tuning machines to the body. I've had that guitar for like that for 35 years and its always been one of my best playing, most stable and comfortable guitars even though its ugly AF (for many reasons, not just because its headless... I mean its pink with neon green splatters on it ... a local guitar shop used to run an "ugly guitar contest" every Christmas and I entered it several times. Never won though because it was actually playable). This was a cheap Tokai/Strat style guitar and so I ended up putting a tune-o-matic bridge and tailpiece on it and use the tailpiece as basically a big string tree. We didn't have cheap, readily available headless bridges back when I did mine (yeah, I'm old).
It’s terrifying, it’s the Hills have eyes all over again
Gibson Owners: Probably mad about the headstock getting sawed off
Me: Do it again
Trogly's Guitar Show would love this
Gotta find a way to get him to see it
7:05 great sounds
Thanks so much dude! His presets are killer!
I like Gibson shapes and I like headless guitars. This came out looking so good, well done man!
Glad you like it! 🤩
I do like Gibson shapes, but don't care for headless guitars. This headless Gibson is the first headless that looks the most appealing a headless has ever looked to me, and now I know why; what the other headless guitars miss is a good-looking vintage body.
Ooof posted 4 minutes ago. I was kinda hoping to read some Boomer "This Eleventeen Kid is killing music" comments. Be back in a couple hrs.
Come back later for the angry old men yeah 🤣
The boomers are coming, trust. 😂
Dude, the hair blowing during the jamming parts is hilarious!
Let me put it this way! This is the best video, featuring a Gibson product, that exists on youtube! Loved seeing this sacrilege.
Absolutely love the way this looks, which is odd for me, since I do t really like LPs or headless guitars but this works. Any headstock repair will actually be far stronger than the original, it is the reason people use scarf joints on guitars. That Gibson can possibly break due to the same headstock angle and a direct slam but it will NOT break in the same place. That glue is crazy strong.
This is so hilarious. It turned out great! 😂
that is fucking cool. I'd say Gibson should take notes, but they'd probably take a page from the Ferrari playbook and send you a cease and desist instead.
This.. this was amazing!
😎🙏🙏
🙏
This should become a common mod for Gibson SG's.
Since those have that god damn neck dive problem.
On the other hand, it's not that hard to put some extra weight on an SG.
Never thought I'd see the day when someone made a headless gibson possible 👌 just made my day mate😁
I’m really impressed! Wow what a great idea! I’m actually surprised that it hasn’t been done sooner!
Respectable. Modifying your own instrument isn't sacrilege in my eyes, and the headstock was already fucked. Good job!
Absolutely disgusting. I love it
This video will go viral
Yes!!
@@sixstringtv1 love your channel, i know you hate LP but this guitar is the best sounding guitar in ur channel IMO
Did you ever consider doing this with an Epiphone instead of a Gibson?
Play authentic
Having the fan blow the hair around during a metal riff is absolutely Metal!!
Ah yes, the HeadLes Paul
Lol I came here to say the same thing
The one time I wanted what seem like clickbait to actually be clickbait LOL!
Awesome videos man
So bad ass. That headless conversion came out great!
When he plays the natural breeze gous through his hair
German engeneering and craftsmanship at its finest
As an Gibson/epiphone fan this is the most epic thing I ever seen lol love the creativity.
Kaylen this is everything I wanted this to be… thank you 😂
I bet the tuning stability improved
It actually did
You deserve so much more subscribers, your content is so high quality!
I like fuzz too
😎
I cant believe that this actually worked
Ready for flight sims
if only it was red, then it could be The Red Queen! catchphrase: "Off with their..."
OMG I love this🤣
Grade A content right here.
Freaking badass experiment
😂🤘
trogly is currently crying in his Les Paul bed because of this
🤣🤣
Pleasant to see clairvoyant included in the video! MMS kicks ass 🤘🤘
Damn right!
Hey man! Thank you so much! 🤘
@@modernmusicsolutions 🙏🤘🤘
I only play gibson guitars but i loved this video lol
This comments section is going to turn into a fantastic "Reading Mean Comments" source. Lmao
Oh yeah 🤣🤣
THEY MASSACRED MY BOY!!!
This make me take psychic damage
Good vid idea
All those broken Gibson heads :)
Excellent playing!
Thanks! 😎
As long as it blows wind in your hair 👍
You should rename the video to "How to keep your Les Paul headstock from breaking."
Awesome work man! Came out great.
I know it's a little to say this, but is there any reason (besides the 300 something dollar price tag) you didn't go with the FRX Floyd Rose? It's designed to be a drop in replacement for the Tune O Matic and I think even has a carved top version for Les Pauls. Great video by the way.
Basically the price tag yeah 🤣
a true scientist
This is an underutilized solution to Gibson SG neck dive.
Headless SG next, PLEASEEEEE!
You're a madman, lol. I wish you did this to a cheaper epiphone as opposed to a Gibson
Why would I? 🤣
Awesome
I salute you sir. You have managed to single handedly fix neck dive
Hey kaylen I really liked the video,but I believe you might have made a mistake.Looking at every guitar on the market,i can see that after the nut,the string heading towards the tuning pegs is at an angle,the aren't completely straight,this helps reduce the tension on the neck.At first I thought that this isn't necessary on a headless guitar,but after checking headless guitars on thomann,you can clearly see that the strings are on an angle and not perfectly straight,i think you can correct it on the less paul by rotating the floyd rose locking nut.
Though I am not sure,I might be wrong,I have zero experience with headless guitars,you can correct me if i am wrong.
Personally I wouldve left the standard tunomatic on & replace the tailpiece with the ali express bridge & use it as a tuner so it still plays a bit like an LP but well done otherwise
This Les Paul sounds killer. I would never do that to any Gibson. But ... I would love to it for .... Telecaster.
What an abomination! I love it! 👍
I unironically love this. headLes Paul should be sold by Gibson, they do own the Steinberger brand so they could make it happen.
Slowly became one of my absolutely favorite channels seriously man up there with ola, lambchopper, Kyle bull etc great stuff man
🙏🙏🙏
Lol, love the editing during the beheading. Ace.
GREAAAT JOB !!!! 👍👍👍
That first hacksaw looks ancient, no idea why I feel the need to point that out.
Found it in the absolute back of my garage 🤣🤣
Bahahaha this amazing bro! You killed it
headles paul, c'mon man
Why are people mad, he's only making the inevitable happen much quicker
Can you please review the GTRS W900
