The Trogly's Guitar Show I have a question so I have a 1992 Gibson les Paul standard USA made, why is it that a like new 1992 with case is worth 1,900$? the only thing I could think of was that it was a good year for Gibson because, this guitar sounds amazing.

yes as a guitar its junk. As a piece of History Priceless. Why? Because its a one of a few that survive and without it we would have a missing link situation in the history of The Electric Guitar.

@dominicvega9267 5 лет назад

$1,999 for a guitar that was gonna be $199 as a guitar package.... oh wait... It's for collector's... Yeah. $2000 plus shipping seems rite. Is there a market for people who pay in the thousands and collect "cheap guitar packages that where never to have been?" I really didn't know there was a market for that. I can see limited run series of guitars themselves. But man, I better go grab that epiphone les paul special II Slash edition guitar package before Gibson stops making them..........

@Speedojesus 5 лет назад

@@dominicvega9267 I think you're fundamentally misunderstanding it though. The package and guitar were never actually released, and for the "woo-woo" part, you're getting one of the few of them made and an effort to create another part of Jimi's legacy. An Epiphone LP Special 2 package has no value because there's been enough of them to make them worthless to a collector, while there's a handful of these guitars at most. And there's a market for "bad" and unloved guitars. 70's and early 80's copies are popular as hell despite usually costing as much as a MIM Fender new, and being about the level of the mid-priced Squires and Epiphones.

They're not that great anyway. All Gibsons I've owned had issues or unprovoked headstock breakage, plus they don't stay in tune all too great. I don't miss them and have no problem buying and enjoying Asain guitars that stay in tune for longer than a song. Also, if you're paying minimum $1k, you shouldn't have to need to change crappy hardware. No excuse for crappy parts on Gibsons and no excuse for not "innovating" the headstock issue. The 2019 line does look cool, but I won't be fooled again.

This is crazy, I remember reading a story early on about this collaboration between the Hendrix estate and Gibson and at the time it was VERY confusing because I think they were afraid to say it would be a Strat copy. They kept describing the design vaguely in terminology like “in the style of the guitar Hendrix made famous” or “like His famous guitar...” I assumed it would be a cheap version of a more traditional Gibson design that Hendrix had at sometime played in his career as he was obviously most associated with Fender Strats. Then the story just kinda disappeared and I forgot about it until now. That’s awesome that you told the whole story here.

I have a '62 Vintage Reissue Fender Stratocaster built in 1982 (first year they did the Vintage Reissue series). It's one of the finest sounding and playing Strats I've ever come across. It came with the three position switch for authenticity but you can easily get the two in between spots with practice, just like Jimi did.

@patrickfoster4586 5 лет назад

@@wesleyalan9179 Yeah man I'd never sell it. My Dad, RIP, was a guitar collector among other things. When Fender came out with those first reissues he bought 3 of them. When I was a kid and decided to switch from piano to guitar (thanks to first discovering Hendrix!) he gave me that one. Of course i loved it because it's what Jimi played but as I got older I realized what a great axe it really was. He had a good sense about picking out guitars because those initial "Vintage Reissue" series are now actually vintage and collectible in their own right. And it does stand up to the real deal because he had quite a few real vintage strats too, including a '59, 60 and a 62 and it plays, feels and sounds at least as good as the real ones!

@nickswango869 5 лет назад

The way that guitar sounds in the middle switch position along with the low reading you got on your multimeter (plus your comment as that position sounding "quacky") make me wonder if the mid position wasn't wired so as to have bridge-mid or neck-mid active in that position (i.e. 2 of the 3 pickups at once in the middle). I take it it's no longer in your possession but that would be easy to verify (or not) just by tapping the pickups with anything metal while actuating the different switch positions

Back in the 1960s, Strats with maple fretboards were made with a separate board onto the maple neck, with no skunk stripe in the back. This was how they did the rosewood boards at the time, too, so it was easier to manufacture all the necks the same way. Of course, I suspect the motivation on THIS guitar was just to have it be done cheaper, rather than striving for historical authenticity.

John Henfrey Leon had a loooong history of drug abuse and wasn’t able to mange himself, let alone something as huge as the Hendrix estate.

Unfortunately Janie is the Devil and won’t do the right thing and bring him into the mix. She has destroyed Jimis legacy.

Where did this guitar go Trogly? I actually LOVE that bodyshape!

The USA headstock had the Gibson "Open Book" carve on the long side, and the Vibrato was to be a Steinberger nit.

Is it the mic? That it comes out as him saying Shhtrat? Or does he actually say it that way? Anyone else notice?

That set neck model that was never finished sort of reminds me of the WRC from the late 80s, which was designed (and named for) by Wayne Charvel.

jimi hendrix was known for using matchsticks to jam the pickup selector into those middle positions... that three way switch was a bold choice

And satin finishes on the necks are quite common on Strats, actually. They are easier to play, superior to the sticky lacquer (or poly) finishes that more expensive, inferior Strats have.

nitro is standard on high end maple neck strats

I was once told that he used to put match sticks/tooth picks in to the switch to force it in-between switch selection

It’s really ironic that Gibson got the rights for Hendrix given that Hendrix was by all means a fender Strat player. But I like the look of it. That is the on with the fire bird head stock. It’s a nice psychedelic version of a strat.
