Marty please hear me out this used to be by old guitar and I’m 12 years old and I have been playing for a year and I should have a picture of it but please please hear me out and also you have taught me so much riffs and you have made my guitar career go so far, keep up with your videos and I hope you the best

Dude, you should’ve kept it. If they sold it for $70, they must’ve only given you $40. That’s nuts. Hope you realized everything they just did to it is extremely easy to do yourself.

I picked up an epi LPJ for $50 on fb mktplace. It was pretty dinged up and filthy but the pickup was super hot. I put new tuners and a tusq nut on and set it up... it's my favorite guitar to play now.

@frederickkneuss3367 Месяц назад

@grilledspaghetti Месяц назад

Use that pickup, but swap magnets to various Alnico types to show how far that goes. So much difference is just the charge, quality and type of magnet. The rest is just bobbins and wire, unless it's rattling.

I purchased a 1999 model Maton M125 Natural Series Acoustic guitar from a pawn shop and pimped it out with black hardware, Black Gotoh mini tuners, ebony bridge pins, ebony end pin, Graph Tech Black Tasq nut and compensated bridge saddle... The stark contrast of black against aged honey golden woods of Sitka spruce and highly figured Australian Queensland Maple is breathtaking, it looks and sounds amazing... 🎶🎶🎶

Hey Marty it's been a while since I picked up a guitar and no matter how long it has been I always come back to this channel. you're one of the best teachers, and can I please ask? There's one song I want to learn. ""I don't want to set the world on fire"" but if not thank you for always teaching me.

Always amazes me how guitarist sound like they've never seen a guitar when they talk to techs. I've done hundreds of setups for some of the most talented guitarist and 98% of them have no idea how to maintain or adjust their gear.

@lonesomedove2024 17 дней назад

I have no argument with you adjusting the truss rod under tension. I prefer to do it without the strings, so I know I have a completely straight neck. I also do my fret work; leveling, crowning, polishing and beveling at that point. I like the neck flat for that. If the strings then pull a bit of bow back into it, I can adjust that to my liking.

@@ahoneyman Replacing cheap parts with cheaper parts kind of does away with the spirit of modding a guitar, the goal should be to make it better, not to make it worse
