Вставка
- Опубліковано 28 сер 2024
- I got this guitar from a friend. It has some issues because it wasn't being used and wasn't getting proper care. I'm attempting to fix some of the issues. So this is kind of an experiment for me because I'm trying to find out what works and what doesn't work. I thought it would be fun to document the process I hope you liked the video because more will be coming😊😁. let me know what you think in the comments. Thanks again for your support! #guitarmaintenance #contactcleaner #odanelewis

What do you use to clean your guitar?
I use Car Wax Polish, its Work for me
@@fernandoalbuquerque1128 you use it on the fretboard as well?
@@odanelewis7885 Not Exactly, on Rosewood i use Naphta, Achool 99%, Thinner and Lemon Oil or Mineral Oil to hidrate the Fretboard. Mapple Fretboards i only use Wax Polish :)
@@fernandoalbuquerque1128 oh ok cool. Thanks for the info and for commenting. I appreciate it.
Yeah the body if its still sealed can be cleaned with soap and water as for contact cleaner i hear deoxit is what most techs use might try taking a q tip or tooth brush to get in and remove some of the corrosion and i use proline lemon oil fretboard cleaner
I played one like the repair from 1974 -1986-87 it’s great a Double Cut Away.
Odane Lewis , man the same result happened to me when recently with this same product . I know their Co. can be reached ;,However ,I’m irritated that I have a fine Ibanez TBX150H Guitar Amp Head . All I was wanting was to spray short bursts into the 1/4” in/out female jacks . But after the usual waiting for the product to ( what’s the words ?) dissipate evaporate , dry ) I then reconnected the Amp plus New Speaker Cable from Head to 4x12 and it’s not the Same . Now there’s a evident noise in the speakers even the potentiometers . I well , it may pass . But it’s not gonna irritate WD-40 to discontinue their product . Thanks for this helpful experiment . Yes to the type of cleaner but the price was lower than another .Sounds like the wiring at the components come to overthink of it , here at UA-cam Chsnnel . Good Video . I like it and Subscribe to your channel for a while .
Good video. Looking forward to see more.
This Electric Guitar with sunburst is identical to a 1963-64 Gibson Melody Maker with fat frets and the same bridge . I’m watching thank you much , and for what may be on your Channel .
The moment he laughs after realising it failed lmao
The amp jack is probably the problem. Good to service the guitar anyway.
Very Good!
This noise is 60 Cycle Hum. Something is with ground connection at guitar wirering.
Input jack is not the reason.
Helpful 💯🇯🇲
Awesome!
can i put some in input jack?
Love this for you bro great content!
Thank you!
You need to resolder the jack again mate
Certainly doesn't take long for the WD-40 contact cleaner to work (visually).
Where is the final test?
Use deoxit
I use lighter fluid and a microfiber cloth to clean my guitar
Yes. Best remedy, even Jimi Hendrix used lighter fluid on his guitars. Lmao! Im messing.
What was the problem?
If it needs some repairs, it’s not in mint condition.
Thanks bro! I misunderstood it. I'll do better next time to ensure that I don't miss use anymore terms.
You made a great video, but the input jack or a very cheap ,bad guitar cord is your problem. Get a quality guitar cord before doing anything else
Most time the ends on the Jack is broken
Oh ok
Get a new Jack
Will do thanks
your recording quality should improve. either change the mic or software settings. It is hard to understand.
the sound is not good I am quite disappointed
Why? It's not your guitar!
