Just when you thought he couldn't get any better he busts out that slide intro
Agreed... sounded so good with the slide.
After which he is so humble and convinced he doesn't know how.
"I wish I could play the slide so I could demo slide for you..." proceeds to play a great slide riff
😎😎😎
Hello Matthew, I am from Spain, I'm 15 years old and i am a very lonely guy, I don't have friends, and my mother sleep at day because she works at night, and I don't blame her, you know? And you are a inspiration for me, you inspire me to continue playing, you and Randy Rhoads.
With you I learn about guitars, English, and the best guitars passing over your hands over the time.
And maybe you don't know but for the people you are a RUclipsr, for others like me you are a Friend
PD: Sorry for my poor English, I do my best 👌
Coleguita si quieres quedamos para cambiar unos licks y darle caña!!
@@wraaangsolo Haber, depende de que comunidad seas, porque a lo mejor yo soy de Barcelona y tu de Calzadilla de los barros provincia de Badajoz (por poner un ejemplo)

Whats your name? You are a friend to me👍🏻 thanks for having the courage to leave a comment.
@@MatthewScottmusic my name is Alex.
Man, I just love what you do. Theres something so satisfying about taking a beat up old guitar and showing whats still exists under all the years of decay, broken necks, and bad repair jobs.
It certainly has been a pleasure in life for me.
Sounds fantastic! Mini humbuckers are very underrated
I would agree. And still somewhat affordable.
A tad brighter than the PAF, if you like that tone. Like the Firebird or LP Deluxe.
The mini HB sounds very good, i have the Les Paul Deluxe.
Agreed. They sound great and take up less space in your picking area.
For Those About To Slide We Salute You
Finding the right slide material is very important and different for each player ☺️
"Schaller-ed" That's brilliant. Never heard that one before! haha
I love the fact you get the guitars that have been "used" and not the kept in the box their whole life kind. The fact that people have played and loved these is so much better than the "look how pretty it is " guitars.
Matthew, thank you for honoring these well-loved instruments, as well as for sharing with all of us who wish we were doing the same. Your sense of adventure and willingness to take a risk is fascinating and a tribute to the old guitars that deserve the chance to be in the spotlight. Nicely done!
Sounds great through headphones. Great guitar, great signal chain. I love the “this guitar has been through some shit but it’s still a great player and deserves the love.”
O my Matt I'm 60 years young and you just transported me back to 1975 and 9th grade. That guitar has a wonderful swampy sound - I mean that in the best possible way. I'm getting an Allman brothers flashback with the ghosts of some Dominoes floating around in my apartment notwithstanding the fact that I don't think anyone in those bands played SGs.or did they?
Once again just a wonderful video for a fossil (lower case) like me.👍
Hey Matthew - I had a Les Paul that was somewhere between 72 & 74. It was solid walnut, no pickguard, rosewood or ebony fretboard, I can't remember but it had 2 regular humbuckers which were in black frames or whatever you call the screw in metal rectangles around the pick up. The trus cover said The Paul on it. It didn't have any frills, no binding or pickguard. I got it from a guy who was an electrical engineer & played the guitar with a band all the way through college. I'm pretty sure he did some fancy upgrades to the pickups, pots, wiring or something because it was the best sounding LP I ever played. I got a new American Strat & sold the LP to a fellow art student who desperately needed a better guitar for his band. At that time I was in the ’1 guitar is enough mode’. Oh boy have I learned from people like you that it isn't a bad thing to have several guitars. I would have kept the LP if I'd known it was ok to have more than 1 guitar. Duh. That SG looks very similar to my LP in several ways. It sounds great. 🎵 Be safe. 👍☮️🌞🦠😷🎸
I'm not usually a huge fan of SGs, but MAN, with that bigsby and that walnut finish, this may be the most beautiful SG I've ever seen. Also, love the harmonica bridge, looks awesome, interesting that the larger width can make it more accurate... makes total sense, but I never thought of it.
Hearing you play just makes my day man, thanks!
Heard a glimpse of this in haste yesterday and couldn't wait to get back to hear more!! Your tones are exceedingly pleasing!! Nice work and thank you for sharing!!!
I had a 1976 sg with the non working Bigsby lol. It was the first actual name brand guitar I ever had. Played it through a Legend hybrid 50 watt. Rorared like a beast
Not sure how I ever started getting your videos in my feed but I can't let one go by without watching it, you're an inspiration and I really enjoy hearing you play.
Always been an SG fan especially the older ones, ✌🏼️
I’ve an old SG arriving this week! Perfect timing getting me hyped! Great video man
Ooooh. Noice score man. Love what your content brings to the table.
Thanks! ✌🏻
Thanks for the review . I’m currently looking at a ‘71ish SG but I love the new ones that just came out too ! Keep on gettin’ up !
Hi Matthew. Great video. Your love of old guitars is an inspiration! your style of playing...majestic! Please keep the vintage guitar videos coming. I wait for them.
Thanks for rescuing these poor things.
Another killer axe! Favorite channel ever! I should also add, you inspired me to grab my first vintage Fender amp, a ‘73 Super Reverb in impeccable condition. Sounds incredible, super inspiring!
I think the guitar sounds incredible! Man, what a great sound. Pups are definitely gorgeous sounding! And nice playing, of course! Loved it...
The instrument just bursts with life, it sounds fab. It has that raw punch that I haven't heard in most SGs, sounds very unique, the instrument also has its own story so that's a plus as well!!
Superb playing!! It's fantastic to see these rare vintage guitars revived by extremely talented people. ;)
I love the sound of a dirty SG. Mine is a Special 24 fret 120th Anniversary Tobbacco burst. You got a sweet piece there Mathew.
I had one of these, but mine was a 1974 SG Deluxe with the same Bigsby style Gibson stamped tremolo and that same style bridge. Block inlays instead of dots. Same color as well. Wish I hadn’t had to sell it.
I've got one just like it. Never thought I'd see that color again. Serial Number 738391, not too far off yours. Same dark, dark brown color. Definitely not the cherry you mostly see. American Airlines busted the neck. It was my main guitar for years in a band. The closest I got to figuring out what year it was (thanks, Gibson, for the byzantine serial numerology) was 1970-72. Cool to see it!
How was the neck busted? What area of the neck? What kind of case was the guitar in? I'm asking because I'm trying to airlines-baggahe proof my case for travel.
@@charlieeng2553 This was 25 years ago. I didn't have a flight case, just the hard case it came in. It was heartbreaking when I realized what happened. The break was at the usual place - headstock area. American Airlines wouldn't pay for a neck splice, only a glue job, which actually has worked really well, but I think I just got lucky. I suspect the best thing to do is get a flight case.
@@kendraznik3078 Thank you Ken, I'll plan to put a lot of foam in the head stock area to not let it move and will do the same on top of the main body to press hold it in place to not let it move much. My case is not a flight case either.
Love your playing. Super tasty licks.
I've got an SGII from '72 or so, kinda similar guitar, but lower budget. I recently had it refretted, put some Firebird style pickups in it, and a Schroeder wraparound bridge. I love the thing. Also very walnut.
Duane allman vibes playing slide on the sg
Yes.,,that was the first thing that came to mind..the tone was just about right on..the Allman's "one way out"
The Allman Brothers were burned in my mind from an early age.
@@MatthewScottmusic You have it nailed down !! Excellent...you just might be better on slide than ya think.
@@MatthewScottmusic that’s a smooth burn
Keep rocking Matt. Love want you do!Old school.👍👍😎
Have a '72 SG Special very similar with the black minihumbuckers, a stop tail, the Schaller harmonica and now Schaller tuners. Got it in '74. After the fret wear was reworked, probably the best playing SG I have.
the vibe in these videos is amazing, love when your new vids pop up in my sub box
Great Sound Matt..... thumbs up 👍
I had that same guitar in '74. Bought it for $250, from a buddy who bought it new. It was about 6 mos old. Sold it in the '90's to get my first Strat.
Matthew
Interesting find my friend
Bob
Love, love, lovr the first fret dot markers on some of those 70s Gibsons.
Very cool ! Sounds great.👍👍🎸😎
Nice paraphrase of ACDC's "R 'n R ain't Noise Pollution" riff, right on Matt! Cool guitar, thanks for sharing.
Very nice find and you nailed it. That's exactly why Derrick Trucks uses one. Hard to beat that vintage tone. It's so bluesy and has just enough of that growl everyone looks for
Very cool. Pickups sound great 👍
Another great video, Matthew… I like the part where you said “ if I could only play slide…” and then proceeded to play slide like a champ. LOL!
At this juncture in my history of watching your videos, I am almost 100% convinced that it isn’t the guitars that are holding all the magic.
I'm really digging this channel. This gentleman certainly is far above the rest of the folks with guitar playing/guitar talking channels. Thanks! Keep it coming!!
nice guitar and nice playing. and they are matching too. fits your style. glad i clicked.
I’ve got one almost the same. Same pickups but with block inlays and no bigsby. Had it since 1991 and love it!
Great vid and playing, mate. A recent convert to the channel via my Strat journey but as a '74 SG Special owner super stoked to see this one. It'd be cool if maybe in a future vid you could relate how you find all these player grade, vintage gems.
I respect your love of vintage
Great vid.
The SG reminds me of my favorite stock guitar...a '74 walnut SG Special with a Bigsby...never gave me any kind of problem.
I did the advertising for Gibson/Epiphone/Moog/Maestro back then and the factory did me proud.
great sound and great guitar work
Sounds great!! And that style of guitar looks good on you!!! Cheers
Another beautiful old beast of a guitar, although I've seen enough of your videos to know that tone is coming from your fingers.
Yeah! Those rock'n'roll ain't noise pollution vibes fit perfectly for this amazing SG!
matthews channel consists of doing justice to dusty old and forgotten gems like that sg
Sounds fantastic, as always
I have a 73 also with neck repair and useless Bigsby. One of the most resonant and best playing guitars I’ve ever owned. Feels like a 50s neckwise
Great sound !
What a feel good vibe. Great playing my man
it sounds like it looks. rough around the edges but does its best. one id love to have around.
Great warm sound with bite.
Minis are my favorite humbuckers.
That sound on your slide intro is beautiful.
Hell. Great sound throughout!
Great upload, man. Loved the playing and the slide suits the guitar perfectly.
Thanks for sharing.
I just got an SG almost exactly like this one - Walnut, Gibson Bigsby, etc. We've dating it around Feb-Mar 1973 based on the pots dates and other features. So glad to own a vintage Gibson SG, and happy to stumble upon this video!
I also have like this one but mine has 3pickups what do you think its name?
watching these videos as the maestro plays, and enjoy tone
Very cool! Has a lot of character!
Thanks for showing us another vintage guitar. The SG is cool.
Love the vibe of this, it's exactly the sort of vintage guitar I'd actually buy!
Impressive guitar skills! You rock! Well done!
Dude, your playing is wild. I love your tone! 🤘🏼
Wow! That was my first guitar or one exactly like it. Bought used in Madison Wi. in 1980. had all the same problems and complaints then. Never touched the Bigsby. Sold it for a Les Paul Black Beauty. Very cool!
Sounds sweet to me, always love your show 🤟🤟🤟
Sounds good to me mate!! I always learn something from you with your knowledge of guitars!! Always Cool and informative! Love your playing!!
That guitar is really cool. I have a SG II. They had those pickups on it but mine was converted to later double coils. It’s the same color as yours. Really dig that bigsby
Another one full of character mate, I actually love the colour.
Amazing tone!!
wowww!!! man, you find these guitars!!!
Definitely the most righteous SG's I've ever heard. 👍
Never been a fan of SG models but this thing sings
You're right! Those black covers were distinct to SG Specials of the era. Killer video as always!
It has a great sound to it!
Doing that thang, keep it coming!
Cool find, sound pleasant
Gorgeous. Great guitar right there
Colour wise this is very Iommi, I really dig that sound. Your slide playing is on point btw on par with your lead. Stay safe dude. ✌️
That means a lot, although I have a hard time with it ✌🏻🙏🏻
Do a collection video show us all the guitars and amps u own. I would like to see u play a classic vibe squier or vintera fender and see how good u can make them sound with ur amp and ur play atyle
Came for the guitar, stayed for the playing. Killer sound my dude.
07:13 i love this kind of lick you play. The way you finish with that chord playing some strings pick and fingers...AWESOME DUDE.
Sometimes i put your videos in slow motion to see what the hell are you playing ;) you are fast. Not shred. Always sounds very good.
In the 70s Gibson was putting those black mini buckers on basses too, The SG series Bass was called an SB with that style mini bucker
Ahh, the famous Harmonica Bridge.
Nice score Matt.
Another great RESCUE. What vibe . . .
Hey rocker - Look-in good Sounding good! You know.....You really do have a good show! Love you bro! 🙂❤️✌🏻🙏🏼✨Bw.
I had a 74 special with a factory bigsby! Black pickups and all. No binding though. One of the nicest sounding SG’s I’ve ever played.
Interesting! Lots of variants people are speaking of.
As usual yer making it sing. I have a 73 SG Custom called strumme, just cause the strings lay down so good. I can't wait till you find a 60's Epiphone Wilshire or Crestwood so you can wail on those mini humbuckers that look identical to the SG special and your Firebird pickup. Rock and roll ain't noise pollution. Rock and roll ain't gonna die. ✌
Love you’re videos dude, you’re awesome
Really cool guitar!!!
very unique sounding guitar, instant 70's rock'n roll
You can clearly hear a Rock n roll aint noise pollution reference when he plays.
Nice playing Matt!
damn.. slide is so darn hard.. you're good!!
Cool! I have a 2017 '61 Reissue SG which I love.
Love those mini hums.
Those pickups sound great!
