IT BEGINS... 𝗦𝗧𝗔𝗚𝗙𝗟𝗔𝗧𝗜𝗢𝗡 SLAMS the GUITAR MARKET! | How to Negotiate Prices
I took a trip to what is effectively the largest pop-up vintage guitar shop in the country - the Dallas International Guitar Festival - again this year. This time I took along my 1976 Fender Stratocaster to see if I can sell or trade it. In the process of doing this, we'll see whether or not stagflation - something economists fear might be hitting the overall economy - has made its way into the guitar market. We will also give a master class on how to negotiate a guitar sale! So stick around for DAY ONE of the Dallas International Guitar Festival.

The Guthrie Govan Charvel has a FATAL DESIGN FLAW!

I can't believe Guthrie Govan wanted his signature guitar like this. This is a first year GG Signature from 2014, made in the Fender USA Custom Shop, and it has one major design flaw that would make it almost completely unplayable for me. #guitar #repair #fender *SHOW YOUR SUPPORT* 1: Become a Member on Locals: theguitologist.locals.com/ 2: Donate via Paypal: paypal.me/guitologist?locale.x=en_U...

TRASHED 1970s Dimarzio Pickup - Can it be REPAIRED?
Переглядів 11 тис.2 місяці тому
In this video we'll attempt to repair this trashed vintage USA-Made 1978-1982 Dimarzio K10 pickup. The K10 was included on some Hondo guitars built in the Samick factory starting in 1978. This is an older style with 3-conductors and no adjustable pole pieces and clipped leg edges. One of the coils is obviously thrashed. It'll take some delicate surgery to fix it...that is if it's even possible....

  • @KnowingWhoYouAre-Ershad1978

    I have the guitar and I initially struggled with the tremol-no noise and friction but it’s about finding the sweet spot with the tremol-no rod when it’s perfectly straight once the screws on the body attached to the bar are properly balanced . It will have no issues at all. Hope that helps. Only thing I struggled with it was having low action with 10-46 gauge . Trade offs were too much relief on the neck or bring the action higher . After a lot of trials over the years, I settled with the little higher action without affecting the playability and its perfect now but I planned to sell it many times before that . But I don’t think I will have sell the guitar as the pups on this guitar makes it sounds like a violin and you can buy the pickups as aftermarket on their own if I am not wrong

    If the board does crap out will it still play through an amp? Or does the pickup circuit always run through the onboard effects/amp board?

    • @TheGuitologist
      @TheGuitologist 8 годин тому

      The output jack is connected through the board, but I don't think it's at all dependent on the board to operate. Worst case scenario, you could just bypass the board and install a jack to the switch.

  • @JACKPAVAL
    @JACKPAVAL 11 годин тому

    The average amp buyer wouldn't know what he's looking at if he looked inside of the amp. So because a dealer does not show the inside of an amp does not mean they're trying to hide something. Ridiculous.

    • @TheGuitologist
      @TheGuitologist 11 годин тому

      I didn't say the dealer was "trying to hide something". Give me a time stamp where I said that.

    • @JACKPAVAL
      @JACKPAVAL 10 годин тому

      2:10 With your statements, you seem to be suggesting that if a dealer showed the inside of the amp that it would look so unappealing that it could somehow scare a potential consumer into possibly not making the purchase.

  • @Polyfusia

    This is an ad not a review. A useless ad for a "guitar" that is a total joke. The speaker, the cheap look and ports. No guitar player would buy this. Only someone who has never touched a guitar who is easily manipulated by insidious advertising disguised as a review would buy one of these pieces of trash. You should be ashamed of yourself for being such a shill.

    The tremel-no is not setup correctly. I've set one up before and it's a tedious task to get it setup correctly. As for the lack of fine tuners, the original floyd did not have them and Guthrie has said that they get in the way when he's playing.

  • @theblindsniper
    @theblindsniper 16 годин тому

    Okay so before I even click play on the video, lemme share a quick story. Once upon a time, I was able to buy a number of guitars, had about $11k to spend. I ended up getting a Guthrie Sig Charvel, a Suhr Modern satin, a Tom Anderson Drop Top and I think I had the Schecter Custom Shop HSS style guitar they make. The one that was hardest to play for whatever reason was the Guthrie, I couldn’t figure out why. Until I was up on stage with very bright lights and I learned very quickly, the flaming of the fretboard made it impossible for me to see where I was and for songs that started with a particular guitar part with the lights on, I just couldn’t see where I was at. I sold it immediately after along with everything else till I bought my Suhr Modern Pro which I still have to this day. I really wanted to love the Guthrie sig but that’s the thing that made it unplayable for me

    Just because you don’t know what you’re doing with a tremol-no doesn’t mean it’s a piece of crap. You should never have accepted this guitar for a setup if you don’t know what you’re doing. Owner deserves a refund.

    I had an 70s Deluxe LP (with a pro neck repair done at Rudys NYC ) and a guy offered me a newer DC Gibson , I told him I am giving you a vintage instrument and you want to give me a new guitar and he started to scratch his head and then told me he had another guitar that was also a newer Strat "deluxe player" , so i told him the same thing I can't trade a vintage guitar for a new one , after a while he just didn't know what to do so I told him lets not waste our time here , if you give me both guitars we have a deal , started scratching again , lol , but at the end he said yes , and the deal was done , your deal was ok since you looked like you were tired seeing that strat , it just didn't do anything for you , I am personally a used LP freak , but not to much with the new ones , in this case I think you are right , the LP might have better younger buyers instrested , knowing me I would have traded ****vintage for vintage*** , but you did good , you got some beer money lol , hat off on the video , love it , waiting on the second part , can't wait to see what happened to the LP , hats off , Alfred NYC / PR
