📚Description: I was pretty excited to finally get one of these for my collection! It is the 2013 Gibson MIII "Reissue" in Electric Lime finish advertised as "no major marks/blemishes." I thought it was finally time. Unfortunately, it has a weird mystery touch-up area by the neck, finish checking, chipped finish by the nut and some considerable dings on the headstock. I decided to return this one due to the weird touch-up spot - otherwise, I probably would've just sold it on. Oh well... the hunt continues and the seller was accepting on the return with no hard feelings.

🎶 It's Not Easy Being Green 🎶

@TzebbLIsla 17 дней назад

I HAVE THAT ONE IN THE EXAKT SAME COLOR!!! Got it in 2016 for $600 because it was a student who needed fast money. I’ve loved it ever since. It sounds AMAZING and I’ve been waiting for you to review/check it out. Mine was mint condition, except for some finish cracks, but personally I find that charming. Sadly it’s not mint anymore due to an accident where my friend dropped a guitar pedal on it and it lost a small chip of color/finish on the front side where the arm rests My dad heard rumors of there only being 200 of these models per color, and there were 4 colors so 800 in total. My dad desperately wanted to know this so he mailed them and the answer was something in the line of “We’re not allowed to give information about that, but I can personally tell you that they are rarer then most know.”

@juanmacaceres2702 17 дней назад

I always hate when people describe their guitars "Like New" but they are a 10 year old guitar with dents and mods. "It's only cosmetic, doesn't affect playability" but has a chunk of finish missing. Some people...

@adrianr2312 17 дней назад

Yea I never understood those people either. Always makes me want to reach back out to them and ask out of genuine curiosity why they believe it is such

@functionatthejunction 17 дней назад

Mods could effect the sound but dents and especially missing finish isnt gonna effect the sound 1 bit. You cant hear paint.

@adrianr2312 17 дней назад

@@functionatthejunction that’s referring specifically to sound though; even a busted up old guitar can sound and play like ‘new’. Refinished touch ups and dents is certainly not what you’d expect from a ‘like new’ instrument, cosmetically speaking, which is what the misleading description is about

I own the Epiphone version of this guitar and easily became one of my favorite guitars! It's called the Epiphone Rebel EM-2. Very versatile guitar and an awesome shredder! They're very rare and hard to find. Greetings from The Netherlands!

@angryroostercreations5194 17 дней назад

that look to the fret board is quarter sawn maple. Most maple boards (particularly Fender one piece necks) are Flat sawn.

@TroyDADDY1984 17 дней назад

If you don't mind explaining. What is the difference in quarter sawn and flat sawn?

@banditkeithkingofduelmonsters 17 дней назад

@@TroyDADDY1984 It is the way the tree is cut. You get less lumber with quartersawn and therefor is more expensive to do. Quartersawn wood has straight grain and vertical grain on the board ends. It is way stiffer and more stable in humidity/temperature changes. Good guitar necks are made of quartersawn wood and are really strong and won't break off like gibsons usual plainsawn mahogany necks. There is also rift sawn which is what they use for table legs as all 4 sides will have the same straight grain, you can tell if something is rift sawn if the end grain is diagonal. Rift sawn is somewhere between plainsawn and quartersawn.

@davidnunn1306 16 дней назад

I would love a review of the L6S reissue from 2011. I have 2 of the Silver Burst models and they are my favourite guitars, along with a mid 90's G&L Legacy.

I've always liked these since I saw them in 'The Gibson' book. If they want to reissue it again they might want to try and give one to Teemu Mantysaari (new Megadeth guitarist) perhaps as a new custom model.

The M series of superstrats is literally the best line of guitars Gibson has ever made. I myself have an Epiphone EM1 Rebel. I wish these brands would start making decent guitars like these superstrats again, rather than re-releasing the same guitars and raising the price every year.

@bee663 16 дней назад

I have been waiting for your review on one of these as I have been watching many on Reverb.

@hawkcrossfamily 16 дней назад

I really like the look of that guitar. And despite the issues, I am curious if you think it could be a good player. I understand it's not in the condition expected, but at a lower price, could it be set up and be a great playing guitar? Definitely not in good enough condition for your collection, but for me, at the right price, I'd probably rock it if I knew, playability wise, it was fine. I definitely think Gibson should remake this one!

@vincemcman4086 16 дней назад

Honestly they just need to flip the headstock and maybe change the inlays, tone down the swag a tiny bit. Colors can be radical still.

@harleywhatman1493 17 дней назад

@PatrickAshe41 15 дней назад

Honestly, the only thing I didn't like about the MIII around 2013 are the colors. All of the other traits are pretty cool/interesting. I haven't played one, but I remember seeing them back then and being intrigued. But those colors, eh... not appealing, IMO

@mikecarbone828 17 дней назад

Salutations Austin! Beautiful color of green! Too bad it didn’t measure up to what you thought it would be, but at least you were able to return it without any issues. Had it been in better condition, it would’ve been a nice addition to your collection. It definitely didn’t seem to inspire you to play much, and you played a very limited selection of guitar licks, not even playing any of your more standard chord progressions, and barely any improvisation. I really like the finish, but the defects are too questionable, unless it were sent back to Gibson for a proper repair and refinish. Personally, I would prefer one without the Floyd Rose Tremolo, but I am not sure they made any of those without one, since it is there version of a “Super Strat”, but I think I would rather just have one with a more standard Gibson style bridge and stop bar, or string through set up, however, I suppose an “Ever Tune” or a “Vega Trem” could be installed on one like this. The Electric Green is definitely a nice finish option. Thanks for sharing! Please have an excellent and awesome day! ☀️✨🎸

@PeterMoore350 17 дней назад

7:20 that’s a shame. If anything Mr Trogly you’ve educated us all on the importance of using a “black light” when inspecting guitars. I actually quite like this one even with its maple fretboard. Oh well. I’m sure you’ll find another one 😎🎸🤘

@Jomomma1 17 дней назад

I had a '92 Gibson MIII Deluxe and that was a KILLER guitar. It did everything. It sounded like a Strat. It sounded like a Les Paul. I regret selling that one.

@tylerjass5804 17 дней назад

Trogly I’m trying to find a video of yours where you had what I think was a bright red Les Paul Modern. May have been the figured cherry one. May have been the Lite. Or something else entirely. Any idea what I’m talking about? I don’t think it’s an unboxing video but I could be wrong.

@JohnGuffey-ho3xc 17 дней назад

You should review a Les Paul Studio Lite M-III or a mid to late 90’s Gibson ES-135 with P-100s. I discovered your channel while doing a search to find someone reviewing a 1985 Gibson Les Paul Studio Custom in Ebony like my 1st Gibson. What a great guitar. It also surprises me how you stay away from acoustic guitars. Playing acoustic is the other essential part of the equation.

@michaelheller8841 17 дней назад

Many years ago Gibson got it right going against the Strat. The Gibson SG humbuckers have no noise and a killer guitar. It's not a single coil like Strats of that era but they wanted double cut-away and more balls. For Gibson to make a Strat-alike is wrong to me. That's why you need a nice Strat and a nice Gibson. Single coils have their game like humbuckers have their own sound too. I want a Strat to sound like a Strat and a Gibson to sound like a Gibson. I don't know what it was about the PUPS in that Gibson but it sounded muddy. If dirty fingers sound like that, I would never buy them. Thank Slash for bringing the Gibson Les Paul back, I don't know what Gibson was drinking back then lol. It looked like Jackson and Gibson had an ugly baby lol. I'm usually a lot nicer in my comments but I had to be honest. Rip out those PUPS if you like it.
