Great job Man ! At the end, this half a century bass seems so happy because she has a second life grace to you. Put some more videos please, I like the way you work ! Greetings from France...
I would be completely happy keeping discoloration at all the major repairs. Everyone is different but I find those spots have great appeal. I play a 1958 Stratocaster and I regret (a little) having it refinished to perfection.
Oh wow I didn't know that it's possible to repair wood like that.. that's super cool great job!
It's ALIVE!!! Thanks for the video.
Nice work. Looks and sounds really great!
Nice job on this! Great attention to the details.
Very nice restoration, great job!
Hi Scotty, once again you nailed it. The lacquer restoration on the fretboard is amazing, i thought you were going to sand to bare wood and spray new lacquer. Great job it's a brand new instrument, congratulations man.
Thanks! I thought I would be down to bare wood too but there was plenty of poly to work with. 👍
Beautiful job!
Nicely saved!
Thank You 🙏
Taking serious notes with these videos. Prolly come in v-e-r-y handy sometime soon!
I have a 2007 strat with a poly finish on both the fretboard and the neck.
Would a heat gun work to remove the finish on the fretboard after I remove the frets? And would it be best to get all the sanding of the fretboard done before the new frets go on?
What would you do for the neck?
For the life of me, I cannot understand why Fender ever decided to put such a dreadful finish on these necks…they are so sticky and impede playing!
Beautiful job Scott ! Subscribed \m/ !
Thank You Michael! I was just telling a friend in California about your Patreon. Cheers
@@harpethguitar Hey Scott, Thought you'd get a kick outta this ... Canada's answer to Nashville : ruclips.net/video/GAxbSssDqwU/видео.html
Really enjoyed watching you ply your craft. May I ask a question, My guitar had a beautiful, almost orange tint to the neck, now I've carefully cleaned it, the 'shine' has gone, how would I restore that? it's maple and everyone recommends NOT using the oil I just bought for my other rosewood guitar.
I couldn’t say without seeing it in person.
Sorry!
@@harpethguitar That's understandable, thank you.
Excellent
Hi, I have a polyurithane 2010 strat American standard with maple neck. A friend banged the head stock into a stucco wall, and put an nice ding in the front corner about a 2 mm wide and 1 mm deep. What would you recommend to fix it? It seems just fill with super glue is easiest. Or do you recommend spot steaming it and using urithane? I think the wood fibers are crushed, so steaming might not do much, and could make things worse. I can see in your video at the end at 25:02 you show your bass, and it has a similar ding in upper right side of head stock.
The spot on this bass looked like a burn mark. But yes, c.a. Glue / Super glue is usually a good choice check out my video where I use glue boost on this old Strat you might get some ideas on how to approach your repair.

Cheers 🥂🤘😎🤘
I have a mid 70s fender stratocaster that has a severely worn fretboard (supposedly from playing, I think over sanding) can the frets be pulled and the board leveled?
I just did a job like that. A ‘77 Strat that got flooded during hurricane Ian. It was a lot of work, but it came out great.
You didn't elaborate on super glue for frets: yes for maple; no: for rosewood, mentioning that it was unnecessary. Could you take a moment to explain why, please? I have a "retirement" project that will require me to install frets on a rosewood board, and I'd appreciate any coaching tips you might offer. Cheers!
For fresh slots, I always use liquid hide glue (the brown bottle) or liquid fish glue (red bottle) Both from StewMac.
Once in a while on a maple board, I will use super glue around the finish and that’s what I did in this video.
The reason I don’t need to use super glue in the fret slots is because I have the fret Barber which sizes the fret tangs perfectly to the existing fret slots.
The water based glue just kind of helps the frets seat properly and fills any air gaps
