Let me say this right up front... I love Gibson guitars, ( Well and Taylor's)... but I would never buy a beat up Guitar....I've been playing in bands for 50 years...and my oldest guitars don't look like this new pre ageing shit....
@LJG781 i bought some that were beat up. but they were beat up naturally. my guitars from the 60s look like they were from the 60s. my guitars from the 2000s look like from the 2000s. if i drop one, i sh*t myself. but i don't drop one on purpose!
Agreed, BUT I have played a couple guitars that had been sent out to be "professionally aged", which sounds so wrong. and instantly my head just starts racing, thinking, " ok can i sell my car to get this?, I need this". I think "bill nash" did one of them and maybe another guy too. Thats different though then when fender or gibson sell one with pointless dings and scratches. I think it involved heat treating the guitars and reshaping necks ect. on the ones I tried, even rounding the necks shoulders and re fretting. The term "professionally aged" makes me laugh cause youd think that would mean a professional player just played it on the road for a long time. You'd think that if the neck angles and subtle differences on the reissues were so great that theyd just do that on a regular stock run. But thats marketing I guess. Best gibson Ive ever played was a 1998 standard, brown burst with brown back, worn to shit from the road. they wanted 1900 on account of it just plaing so good. it was beat to shit but all the wear was authentic.
I have a 36 year old Fender Master Series Esprit that I bought brand new and I’ve played almost every day since. The binding has yellowed and with the exception of MINOR wear marks, absolutely everything else on that instrument is pristine. This business of beating up the finish and blemish in git is stupid.
I work for Gibson. They pay me to rub my unwashed ball sack across the backs of every relic. It's a high production facility so they strap me to a bungie cable and fly me over a conveyor belt loaded with guitars. It's not as glamorous as it sounds though.
Let me build this beautiful mint guitar and then lightly beat the shit out of with hand tools so some idiot bedroom player can pay double for a guitar that looks like it's actually left his house before...
seriously, how does some soy consuming hipster beating it with a dollar stor meat tenderizer account for a higher price!!?? The aged guitars are meant for people who will probably never learn to play it.
I hate fake aging. the whole idea is to beat it up yourself, then it's unique. Unless it's a $4500 Custom and then you treat it better than your wife. :)
Except you'll almost never get an as good looking aging if you do it yourself. I had a friend doing so with two of his Strats, one where he'd do it with tools... and one with only wear and tear. And they looked like shit... nothing like an aged/relic one. It's as with jeans. I guess you're one of those old guys who think kids buying "aged" jeans are stupid, right? Because buying regular blue jeans will give you nice aging, if you just use them? NOT! Aging like this: i.pinimg.com/originals/7e/b2/04/7eb20451bfe2442ad4d4fc89329f9797.jpg ...requires tools and skills. Not "regular use". Same thing mostly concerns guitars. Custom instruments that are aged are also NEVER the same... so... well...
+dizzydevilrules I thought the same way once. I always liked beat-up old guitars, then when I started to hear about custom shop "aged" or "Relic'd" guitars (fender did it first in the early-mid 90's I'm pretty sure), I talked all kinds of shit to my friends whom thought it was a cool idea. ..........Then when I had actually seen one for the first time I changed my tune. Tom Murphy made a believer out of me.
@Jacob Johansson so what you're saying is fake is better than real? this is wrong on so many levels...that's why people don't want to hear that someone faked something (infer what you will). imma have to disagree on this one
First of all they are counterfeits, Illegal. Secondly, they suck and third they can't even get the 4 volume & tone holes centered on 99% of their guitars. They likely don't even have cnc. Ill assume you have never played a Standard or Custom Shop, or a Chibson, if so you would not make such silly comments.
Most people who like relicing don’t seem to admit it comments. The was a guy who bought a brand new American strat. White. And the put on his camp fire to relic it. Dumb as. The point of distressing old furniture was really to scam buyers. The French violin faker Vuillame did this to sell his Stradivarius copies. Players who want to buy reliced guitars can’t afford really old guitars so they buy reliced ones but in fact they should just lend a new one to a ten year old. I guarantee when they pick it up a week later it will look reliced.
A guitar you need to baby and not get hurt is not a player's guitar, it's a collector's item. If you are a player, get a guitar you don't need to baby.
That's the most ridiculous things ever….for Dr & Lawyers w/too much $$$. That's taking the journey out of your bonding w/the instrument thru the good times & the bad the first nick is always Painful but you learn to still love it & like life it will wear you & the guitar down. You can't buy that no matter how much money you have. They ruined a perfectly good gtr & turned it into a Poser Guitar imo. It's in that Journey thru good & bad & the ugly the Joy the Love the Pain….that's what Great Songs & Music is made of again that can Not be bought.
I build some very expensive electrics. You would have to shoot me before I "aged" a new guitar. "Ageing is the stupidest thing I have ever seen done!! Ever.

Gibson should never of started this trend od distressed guitars. So sad and pandering to morons who xare more about image than playing. So wrong. Guaranteed people who buy these have stone washed-distressed jeans in their closets. F'n live a life for yourself. My shoes look like shit because I walk and work.

I collect Gibson Les Paul and Epiphone Les Pauls and so does my wife's uncle and we can mutually say that the finish on the Epiphone is far superior to the Gibson and that the Gibson Les Paul guitars of the 70s blows away that of the 2007 to present, theirs no comparison, you even have to hang them on different walls.

You know, I have six Gibson’s. Three Les Pauls, and I love them. BUT! They have priced themselves out. I won’t buy another. Especially now that I’m ready to retire.
Indeed. I love them too but the quality decline and price increase is inexcusable. I was looking at getting a new Les Paul custom but I’ll be buying the Tokai Premium version(nitro lacquer too) as it’s a better made guitar all round and a bit cheaper...about the same as a Les Paul Traditional.

Damn, people are so salty about that aging thing... If you don’t like it, well I have a bit of news for you, no one is forcing you to buy it! Let people enjoy shit for fuck sake.
19:55 what about fine airbrushing (with a darker colour) to magnify the ‘stripes’/figure? I’ve heard it’s been done. Les Paul's are a work of art. Just NEVER paint over nice wood (my only rule)
This is wrong right out of the gate. If you go for this, you are fool and Gibson and Fender know it. "THE PROCESS DICTATES THE RESULT" You CANNOT build a vintage guitar with CNC machine.
Made in the USA using equipment, tools and machines built in Taiwan.. also, alot of the wiring, screws, paints, glues are imported from China, Taiwan, Indonesia etc..think about that...
Yes, Gibson use tons of Asian made parts. They are relying on brand recognition for a dying company, and one that stopped being about music and became all about money decades ago.
I just have taken the tours for Gibson USA and Epiphone China. Both fit my humble opinion of high quality. I'll buy the model Sheritan II from a friend whose apartment is bursting with Epi and Gibson gear! Thanks for the posts! Musically yours, RainPlaysMusic
@Kim Naef you posted the same thing in the regular gibson factory video. this is the custom shop. i don't think there is an equivalent for that in china. all the same, you might want to try an epiphone casino. that is, one of the '60s ones. that's when an epiphone was really an epiphone

Difference between an USA & Chinese build guitar. The nationality of the person pressing the button of the CNC machine made by the white man.

Same reason some people want to buy a really old beat up one. They think it looks cool.
I agree totally Jim, I have had my SG new since 09' and it still looks beautiful
And I was worried about nicking my guitars!
4:13 the neck joint fit is not tight at all which is crucial
just saw that, what is even going on here? I mean, this is not indonesia!
The Chinese did a better job at the Epiphone factory, used levels to unsure a flush fit rather than just stuffing it in and clamping it.
It's tapered and gets tight when the clamp forced them together.
CNC profiled cuts are very tight in tolerances insuring a repeatable exacting fit.
Relicing is so corny to me. Buy a guitar and play it. Earn the wear

I have three custom shop pieces; all had pristine finishes. I'll add my own chips, cracks, dents, and wear, please!
If you’re gonna relic you gotta ruin the playability and hit the fingerboard and neck
