Gibson J190 EC Guitar Never In My Life ? 

"My enthousiasm is overshadowed by my lack of ambition" What a poet ! And how familiar sounding.

I have learned more from your videos in the past three months, than the last ten years combined. Keep up the good work sir!

U R a Surgeon, The GUITAR Surgeon and thanks for sharing your EXPERTISE : )

If all flat top guitars have bridges that eventually pull up I wonder why you don't see any with a trapeze style tailpiece. This would transfer the string pull to the back of the guitar. Maybe the sustain wouldn't be good.

She's a beaut. Looks like an interesting guitar.

i agree 100% with you on the D.J. part !!!

Toronto weather is good? That means it’s headed to me in Montreal, but in bloody French. Ha

Good to hear that you are having your eyes and teeth fixed. I had cataract surgery on both of my eyes last year and I'm still amazed at the improvement. No more glasses needed for reading and driving. Next year it's on to my teeth.

You said it before Dave and it bears repeating,"Getting old sucks".

Thank you for solving my psycho saddle problem, great show as always.

I have a j185 that has a small pickup. Maple back and sides. I love it.

Just what I needed to see. I have a Jersey guitar (garbage can rescue with really high action and have been procrastinating pulling the saddle out to shave it down. Wish me luck.

The Beatles used one very similar to that. It wasn't a cutaway and I think it only had 2 knobs. John, Paul and George all played it starting with their first album.

Nice guitar

I'd like to lower my strings too. I think that after seeing you shave that saddle that I could have a try at it also.

The bionic luthier! "We can rebuild him, we have the technology!"...hehehe

Classic Dave. Nice to see an acoustic on the bench. 👍👍

Old Age, Painful and Expensive to endure..................... But still much better than the alternative!

Sweet guitar

"Don't play three chords in a row" Sad but true.

I was wearing my 🎧 Dave!!! 😲 15:20 I agree w/you that is a pretty unique 🎸

Jeebus, how thick is the body on that guitar?

I could have been a surgeon LOL. The doctor is IN.

Nice episode, Davo!

I just figured out a fucking b chord...I got a half decent tele that should be set up good because I spent good money on having that done.. it's actually one of the great squiers....oh I know you see so many guitars and you always respect them...I've seen stuff that I think I is crap but I really don't know what I'm talking about but you always do your best to help them...

At first I thought the EC meant Eric Clapton.

The I want working on my guitar is the man low ambition. Your new name is officially David Massengill. You are welcome sir.

I love this stuff. Thumbs up like

Mounting the knobs on the top instead of on the side next to the too-big toggle switch was a dumb idea. Allowing the internal wiring to hang free was another dumb idea. Betcha this would be a bargain on eBay.

Its Andre the giant but in the form of an acoustic guitar.

I’m blind and l like it keep the headphones on get over yourself my favorite quotes from today

I am compelled to thumb this vid up BUT I CAN'T! I want it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Are there any acoustic guitars you can buy new today that don’t try to turn themselves into toothpicks the day you bring it home

8:06 If you need new freterasers, give the ones from Crimson (UK) a try. They are a bit harder and I see almost no wear. When you use the beltsander, protect your ears. You got your eyes back, protect the rest of your senses.

Hi Dave ... love watching and learning about guitar repairs, but I need to know when you're gonna make BLT's, again. lol

Please enable video subtitles. I live in Brazil and would love to understand what you say! Thank you

That was my cousin Nat :)

if the insect gets it, am i watching a snuff movie?

Next time you super glue something with your hand way up the guitars hole you might consider wearing a glove. It would be a great video with someone trying to free their hand up a guitar's hole

Caught that JP lick...lol

Nice guitar way out of my price range

I'm going to be able to see and chew... but the rest of me is going to shit xD

I learned a lot from Dave the guitar dude, this is a good show. But he should watch his fucking language.

( l’ve never seen or heard of one either) that is a fuck of a guitar- l’ve seen one other Gibson acoustic that is kinda up the same alley- had a classical headstock and a dread naught body and steel strings and 600 ish model number- ( maybe on your channel or Norm’s

Haha you should have delivered babies Dave.

Personally I can't believe a design team did that on purpose. It would be nice without the knobs and switch. I'm glad they stopped making it.

Did the insect die or will it be a regular now?

Welcome to old age Dave. I have osteoporosis at 43 lad! Ive lost 7 inches in height & am now 5ft 5" due to a fall last year. I fractured 6 vertebrae and my hip! Then when in hospital I fell again & snapped my sternum so my chest is all caved in. Couldn't play guitar for 9 months as I lost all feeling in my left hand due to trapped spinal nerves. Im falling apart! Have C.O.P.D from smoking. Liver damage from 25 years drinking hard! Lol. I have to laugh or I'll cry. Its a comedy of errors mate! Lol. It can always be worse lad! Cheers maestro. Stay safe. ;)

It was a J160e.

Same shitty song, love it. I wondered if it was different in the great white

Hey Dave question for a full time guitar tech how long does it take to do a setup on two guitars. I moved up to Bradford and the music shop here told me two weeks. I sent him an acoustic and a les Paul that needed set up. Its approaching two weeks later and he called me to tell me its gonna be another week.

"Same Song. New DJ."

Owner is on this vid like flies on shi...

Cool intro then I saw the guitar 😳 WTF

No sandwich?

If you had fins . . . you could have been a Sturgeon too . .

As long as it's only a saddle he's asking you to shave, you're good.......

Found one on reverb. reverb.com/item/1045755-1985-gibson-j190-ec-jumbo-acoustic-guitar

Dave, no shit...if I could stand by a guy and have him teach me how my fuckin guitar works it would be you..

"You could have been a Sturgeon"?? What?? 🎶🎸

Electric concert

Canadian guy fists guitar. News at 11:00. 😄🎸👊

E C - Electric Classical

If Dave is doing the night shift, who's doing the day shift? Being Canada, I suspect there's a third shift. Who's got that covered? I'm ascared!

Looks like a Charlie Christian type pick-up.

axe is really large

Thick body ? You could live inside that thing!

Did I say "rub it out"? :)

Beautiful guitar, and it has its own built in trash bin. I always thought it was a sound hole. 🤦

Dave, maybe ya just need a good hiney pokin'?

Eeeeewwwww .... Monster .... kill it ... kill it

E C Epiphone Copy

Doesn't sound that good in my opinion, way too trebly.

"working upside down in a mirror is goofy" Dave, you doing anything, is goofy. just sayin.

Jumbo?

Congratulations on the eyes and teeth.

Gynaecologist?

Does Dave get to see a lot of Gibsons?

Geez this guitar is thicker than I like my women

Can I have your old teeth, mine are shot...

You coulda been a surgeon but they don't make the big money that guitar techs do. haha

More OFF, better than MORON : )

Horrendous looking thing.

woohoo, first!!!!

Nice guitar
