ESPが買えないメタリカファンの怨念をも受け取ったグレコ。流石です。
Some of the Greco guitars were really good... and the Burny Les Paul copies were awesome. Too many Americans sleep in how incredible most Japanese craftsmanship and woodworking actually is. Masterful work from the ground up.
黒→赤→アルミテープなんだ😂😂😂
You have tremendous patience, and I appreciate you making these instruments beautiful again!
Resurrected a classic lawsuit guitar. Dude, your best job yet.
I cannot believe, when I see how musicians treasure their instruments. In fact: a shame. Thank you, you have rescued this fine guitar. Greco built fine instruments. Good job!
If it made the kid who owned it happy, then there’s nothing to complain about.

this guitar was grounded so hard it was at home for 40 years
Every time you come out with a new video, I can tell that your skills have gotten better every time! Awesome work in this guitar! It turned out great!
素晴らしいグレコの復活を見せて頂き感服致しました❣️救済されたギターの命もまた素晴らしく、グレコの歴史を味わうことができました❣️ありがとうございます🌏
Very classic results after another great rescue and restoration. It has reclaimed it's dignity once again after much abuse. Amazing what a solid beautiful guitar was hiding under all the dirt and paint! Add some double cream Dimarzio Super distortion or zebra coil humbuckers for even more style( but keeping original pickups is great too, economical, and respectable)
Fantastic guitar Les Paul from Greco, made in Japan.
the original aluminum guitar is what those relic fanatic love
Simply fantastic, great great job once again. I love vintage Greco Les Pauls!
Hello Friend, nice restoration, I really had a good time enjoying the way you work. This Greco Les Paul is a very good guitar, you just made her more appealing ! See you next video...
Sunny Day Real Estate! nice!
I think the original owner of this was a really big Megadeth fan.
Sunny Day Real Estate! I just got to see them a few weeks ago! Awesome work on the guitar.
You set the bar high. What you did in this video was amazing.
The amount of work you put into restoring the electronics is impressive! I would have just replaced the whole lot.
I groaned a little when I saw the pickup selector switch someone unfamiliar with the concept of masking off things you don't want painted to protect them had done bad things to when painting his guitar red. It's unbelievable, what some people do with guitars and many other "nice things" that's textbook Dunning Kruger effect in action. 🤦♂🤷♂
Very buzzy and microphonic, I think new pickups were the way to go
@@danielktdoranie You can always replace the pickups to get better tone.
Just a guess, but some guitar collectors prefer to have original equipment onboard as much as possible, or at least a period piece.
Import electronics are junk. Always good to replace them. Pointless to “restore” them.
You really saved that guitar and transformed it. Fantastic work!
I liked the idea of a silver metallic guitar but you did a great job with the restoration.
You truly come up with some interestingly styled guitars. Looks like the market you fish in is robust in the quality used instrument departments. A trick too remove odd skinned/aluminum finishes like that is use a hair dryer too heat it up and soften the glue. Great Work as Always.
I acquired an old Les Paul copy similar to this some years ago that’d been painted over with cans of spray paint. I was going to try and do restoration, but quickly gave up as I discovered the body was plywood underneath all that paint. The short story is, it would cost way more in man hours than the instrument was worth, so scrapped it. I DO love watching others do these restorations though.
Same here! Like making a purse from a sow's ear, as they say. Worst wood ever, sound and construction-wise! I got burned on one once too! Tossed it! Firewood.
At first I came for restoration, but now I'm more interested in how many songs I can recognize in demo section, lol. Great music taste. Thanks for the video!
What a mind blowing amount of work and effort you put in to bring this guitar back to life ! , well done my friend ! ,God bless !😊
毎回観てるけど、修復技術が素晴らしい❗
Мастерство, особенно когда трут металлические предметы о железную щётку и они начинают блестеть 😅
Damn that guitar's been through a lot. Interesting choice to fill in top rather than sanding it off the old top colour to re-do it. Amazing details into getting the hardware restored rather than swapping them too
I did like the restoration, but I was also impressed by the demo.
awesome job! sometimes it’s unbelievable how people treat their guitars…
Era minha, não tinha condições de fazer esse reparo... Parabéns
God damn that was relaxing! Your work is wonderful to watch. The attention to detail is commendable. Thanks for another guitar life saved.
You did an awesome job 👍. That Greco is a fantastic Les Paul copy! I have a Aria Les Paul custom (matsumoku) from 1979.... And it's an incredible guitar.
Everything they MADE seemed to have a magic in it, and a Quality and pride of construction and MATERIALS we seldom SEE these days!! I had one or two.....and trying to find a replacement for the one that I let GO! (Not that many LEFTIES out there though!)
@@allenmcdaniel1470 Keep checking on Reverb and other online sources. Ironically, I'm left handed, but my teacher was very persuasive making sure I played right handed...lol. One Matsumoku made guitar I'm looking for one day is the Electra Outlaw.
Marvellous. The kinda patience that a real craftsmanship will show through in the final!
おめでとうございます、このギターは救われました!!!
Your videos never fail to impress me with the amount of time and dedication you put into your restorations! Good work as always, it was fascinating to see such a lovely guitar come out from underneath that exterior. It's always interesting to see the end of each of your videos because what you end up with is always so much different than what you began with.
あなたのビデオは、あなたがあなたの修復に入れた時間と献身で私を感動させることに決して失敗しません！いつものように、そのような素敵なギターがその外側から出てくるのを見るのは魅力的でした。あなたが終わらせるのは、あなたが始めたものと常に大きく異なるので、あなたの各ビデオの終わりを見るのは常に興味深いです。
So talented! I was waiting for a new video from you and this one didn’t disappoint! Well done
So relaxing...puts me to sleep in minutes.
Respect good work.
This was a resurrection of an old beauty.
your playing is even more impressive than your restoration work! thank you
great video!
another japanese vintage treasure..the white paint rest was the last of the original vintage white finish
I appreciate Sunny Day.
I've got an all original 70's tobacco burst LP. GREAT restore!!! I like your attention to keeping original parts.... Restore, not refinish!
Всегда на душе радостно, когда инструмент попадает в хорошие руки. И вот вторая жизнь у японца, браво!!!
am i the only one who thinks the bald patch and lighting-ish cracks before the paint job was cool? anyways - top notch video, always a pleasure seeing a guitar restored and ready for more music
That aluminum tape look looked amazing
The aluminum looked odd, but definetely better than the reddish finish underneath 😂
Btw, Awesome job with the wood filler 😊
The person who put the tape on it was trying to make it look like james Hatfield from Metallica’s signature ‘Truckster’ guitar. Crazy.
I am a long time subscriber and have watched every single video you uploaded. Your restorations are most admirable because of your dedication to smallest details and the patience you practice. That's why I was surprised that you have missed the rear side of the head stock (it's upper part) and that you made some scratches on the polished front of the body while screwing in the screws that hold the saddle. Which makes you human, I guess! Another great job, though.
さすが日本製やなー、、音良すぎてびっくりした
Que trabalho lindo !!!!!! Congratulations from Brazil!!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👇🏼👇🏼
Это же минт колекшн серия. Одна из самых удачных и достаточно дорогих копий Гибсона от Греко. Каким нужно быть варваром, что бы так ее загондонить. Автору респект за восстановление.
на редкость кто то извратился)
Если в голове опилки вместо мозгов это случаеться😁
@@ramilshakirov33 звук улутшился.
Interesting! I wasn’t certain as to what I thought of the look of the guitar before the clean up job. After I can say it definitely grew on me.
Your work is pretty amazing!
this is ALMOST the video i need....i gotta figure out how to replace or just get rid of the binding! (excellent vids btw! , been watching as many as i can)
Though it would not have been my first choice to refinish a guitar this way it does look much much better than the aluminum tape version of this guitar. I would have at least removed all of paint from the top to see what type of wood it was and see if a dye could have been used on the wood. Not a big fan of painted wood. That being said the guitar is much better off than it was before you started working on it.
Once again, the amount of work you've put into this one is fantastic. She looks and sounds better than ever now!
Edit: Also, the riff played at 35:30 is killer.
Is that any known riff? Or your impro? It sounds amazing (wanna learn it)
@@marc2423 DANGIT it's making me crazy i KNOW it....
That was ALOT of work to bring it back to stock !! Great job !!
Tenias que ponerle esos microfonos que tienen tapa dorada y quedaria aun mas alucinante la guitarra, excelente trabajo !!!
sunny day real estate!!
that guitar was a hot mess, you restored it beautifully, i think it would great with cream pickup rings
Exelente el detalle de la limpieza con el cabezal de las pastillas 😁.. introducir asta el.fondo.el.cabezal para que no sufra ningúna fricción al momento de limpiar La pastilla simplemente genial 🤩💪
バインディングのマスキングが綺麗！
渋いレスポールに甦りましたね！
悲しい状態の富士弦グレコ レスポールを救ってくれた感半端ない😂
ベース良いから修復しても風格が有ります。
Cool . The guitar Gibson should have made , the Les Paul Silvertop .
I like the aluminum tape look!
Looks great. I have a similar guitar that was made in Japan
Great job and nice playing and overall production - subscribed!
My luthier painted my RG Black and I know it's not easy. Great finish! With the scratch plate. Over the top. Sugoi 🙏✌️🤘🇦🇺
Awesome job bud! 👍
Giving that guitar 🎸 a new life!
🤘🤘😁
Nice job cept foor scratching your non 2 pac clear. great job....i had one the same in a dark burst of some type. defo japanese. heavy beast.
Man, what a difference. That looks so good now. Very nice job.
You really get some nice guitars to clean up.
This guy must be a Zen Warrior with the patience of Job. My hat goes off to you my dear Japanese Brother. You obviously love your craft.DD
all the riffs u demonstrate sound amazing
Stamps on a guitar!!!! A novel decoration!
Happy to know at least someone cared for this - I would have just dumped it in the trash and not bothered! 😆😆
Kind of like the aluminum tape. Clean up the electrics, new strings and play it.
(But it sure looks good now.)
Great job.
Buy a large slot screw driver and some speed nut drivers. Using pinch nose pliers and an undersized screw driver gave me the willy's. Beautiful restoration just buy some tools!
You sir ,are an Artist. Amazing work.
Aluminum foil and red paint. I can't imagine how long it took you to get all that off!
L'uomo dei miracoli dio esiste x me tu sei il migliore fai tutto da solo e con precisione sei assolutamente un Grande wooooooooouuuuuuuu
Very nice overhaul -
those emo riffs.. live long sunny day real state mate
You always make a great job👍 Love from France🇨🇵 Vive la Japon!!
このメタリカのステッカーはReloadの日本盤のオマケだったか店頭で購入者に配布していた物だったか細かいところは覚えがないけど現物持ってるｗ
You did an excellent job...I did like the silver tape....but the outcome of the guitar was awesome!!
I kinda like melted color of guitar at start of washing the red paint at 7:07
😮 I'm really surprised with the level. The level of dementia and bad taste of some people, who after spending a not inconsiderable amount of money, believe in their heads that they can "improve" the work of a professional. These true acts of vandalism and torture towards those poor guitars. I really enjoy your videos, and how you bring these beautiful musical instruments back to life.
Great Work! She`s a beauty now!
I have to say. The mod was pretty neat, would look cool up on stage.
I actually like the foil appearance
I may do this to a cheap $175 LP copy just for fun, but using COPPER instead of aluminum
These videos are going to eventually lead to me going through JP yahoo auctions for a Greco
Love your work.Guitar is such a beautiful instrument. Love the respect.
i would have changed out the pick-ups & switch. they used cheap ceramics on these 80's copies. swapping them would actually improve it. i like that you didn't try to get it perfect, allowing the guitar to retain a lot of its character.
Nice! My. Son has a 1979 Greco EG700 Standard and then we share a late 80's Greg SG Standard
Nice arpeggios!!!
Beautiful playing . Good job on the resto .
What a huge difference! Great work.
Wow, just wow! Inspiring work. Thank you.
Fantastic work!
Big job! Nice job!
