Subbed & watched the two shorts a few days ago now. Can’t wait to see Cathy’s first video! 👍🏼 Super nice workstation she’s got. That personalized housing for the winder is slick!
Hey Sean, Thanks for the fast response and the link to Cathy’s pickups. Saw the zebras and I’m hoping they can still be had for a while longer while I get a few bucks together. Be well be strong Rage on!
Yeah, I'll admit it, I kinda teared up a little when you gave that man the guitar, I guess I ain't as tough as I thought I was. Bless you for doing that.
This is the best guitar show on the internet. Sean is so kind for giving him a guitar. I challenge anyone to think about their friends, have they given you a guitar? I bet not.
Nice looking firebird style guitar, Cathy's pickups sure made it sound good, and that was really cool hand delivering the guitar to Dave, sure put a smile on his face. We'll see you tonight Sean & Cathy 🤘
I love ya man because you are sooo damn real! This " northern boy " loves your Southern-sweet hospitality way of no BS and our mutual love of guitars! You make the viewers feel like you're a real friend . I look forward to seeing more of your videos!
Wow! What a beautiful act of kindness! Then for him to play “How Great Thou Art” shows his heart too. I was really touched by it all. Thank you for a wonderful episode…
Shawn, you did a good thing, my brother! I don't believe in karma, but I do believe that you are unbelievably blessed! You're blessed with talent for playing guitar and for working on them! But even more so Shawn, you're blessed with being married to your best friend and business partner! You and Cathy are roll models and an inspiration among the dark and disgusting videos on RUclips! I've been a PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAN and PROFESSIONAL AUDIO ENGINEER in Las Vegas for 45 years. I've played up and down the Sunset Strip in Hollywood and up and down the Strip in Las Vegas with my band chasing that illusive record deal and opening up for acts from Pat Travers to Poison, Warrant to Doken, Slash to Vince Neil, Ace Frehley to Quiet Riot! You get the picture... I worked audio for everyone from James Brown to The Bangles, Christina Aguilera to Sound Garden, Mariah Carey to Billy Ray Cyrus, Prince to KISS... I love your authenticity! You know what you're doing, but you're not a RUclips Douche! LOL... Anyway Shawn, I'm a big fan! I got really sick unexpectedly and am pretty much bedridden 18 hours a day. (Long story) I had to sell my collection of 23 guitars including 3 Les Pauls. One of which I had made to my secs at the Gibson Custom Shop just to keep a roof over my head until my SS Disability case got approved (2 1/2 year wait) I quickly had to get off of my "guitar snob" kick but was so pleasantly surprised to find out that you REALLY COULD FIND A PLAYABLE, GOOD SOUNDING GUITAR FOR UNDER $300.00! So you and Cathy always put a smile on my face no matter how much pain I'm in and I look forward to seeing new posts from you when they come out. Keep the faith and keep fighting the good fight my friend! And keep providing that you DON'T HAVE TO SPEND $1,000.00 + TO BUY A GOOD PLAYING, GOOD SOUNDING, AND GOOD LOOKING GUITAR! GOD BLESS AND TAKE CARE GUYS!
That’s not how I use my fret erasers, I go over each fret lengthwise in three ascending grits, 220, 800, 2000, and the frets come up like mirrors. Takes a little bit of effort but if you’re gonna be playing it, it’s well worth the effort. The channel is growing nicely now, 100k by the end of ‘24 I predict. Happy to be lip-flappin’ since it was only 9k or so. Dave is just awesome. “Mercy!”
Just wanted to say thanks ! As a 50 year old new to playing guitar, your channel is the one that has taught me the most about working on my own guitars. Not only has it gave me the knowledge , but also the courage to do a lot of stuff myself and has saved me boat loads of money. So thanks again ! Len
What a wonderful beautiful heart warming video of what you did for your good friend. World needs more of you. Thanks for making my day and sharing and appreciating people that really matter and make a difference in our lives. Keep rolling and scarring.
That was so cool of you .Thank you for helping out i so wish there was away to send you a pic of my Frankenstrat i built would love to get your opinion on it BTW great job on that Firebird clone
I picked up a classic sunburst Firebird with mini humbuckers from China for under $250. It's got a Richlite fretboard and aside from the mini potentiometers, there is not one thing substandard on this guitar. The switch is stamped Epiphone and the neck has a scarf joint, but it is a great toy, not sure I'd use it on a gig since it tends to squeal at high volume, but though an Orange amp it sounds fantastic.
Hey Sean and Cathy!Thanks for another great review of a kewl guitar but my favorite was your gift to WGP! You two are awesome! That's enuf lip flappin!
Love the channel! I'm learning a lot every time I watch one of your videos. The Firebird look-alike came out really nice, the chrome hardware really set it off, and Cathy's pickups sound great in it. Keep up the good work!
Hey man, you do have a heart of gold that was incredibly awesome. You given that man a guitar that was great. There are good. People still left in the world. You’re a perfect example. Pretty good job you did on that Firebird makes me wanna go buy one. I have a real one but that one looks cool Sound pretty damn good might have to pick me up a set of Kathy’s pick ups 😍
Two very pretty guitars today, and I noticed that the one you gave to your friend didn’t have the kerning problem in the logo I was bitching about. Nice.
Way to surprise Dave by delivering your own guitar personally. We all love him! He’s the bestest even if he says he’s the worst’est! He definitely deserves to have one of your models and will surely enjoy it. 😎🤘🏻🎸🔊🎶❤️🔥 That’s so funny that this company used Epiphone parts and then scratched it out very poorly, lol. I like Cathy’s pickups in there for sure. Way to bring this Firebird shaped guitar into the rockin zone! 🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻
God bless you Shaun & cathy,I loved seeing Dave smile with true joy at that sweet guitar you gifted him, playing guitar is the only thing that keeps me sane & I truly know I'm not the only one that feels that way. Cathy you've got a massive talent making those warm sounding pickups,I'll be keeping a lookout for your new channel as id dearly like to get some sent over the pond to old blighty here😂. Great work Shaun I love your style brother ❤
When I watch your videos, you remind me of the "Sean and Cathy's" that I know where I'm from... An awesome couple with individual talents that can be combined in a shared passion to create wonderful things for not only yourselves but others as well. Keep doing the Good Lord's work on this earth. 😊
I’ve learned enough watching your videos that my grandson and I are fixin to scar one for each of us. He’s got his eye on Double cut with P-90’s. I have my eye on like the firebird your working on. Keep up the awesome work pal. Papaw Richard and Walter
That’s a home run for me! I love a Firebird style guitar, and WHaT!? How does she do it???? The pickups are fat and spanky at the same time… great single coil tone and full humbucker tone too. I always thought that a humbucker that holds its own when coil split is the mark of a truly high quality pickup build. All this, and you are in the Sunshine State too? I am a St. Pete guy and I love it here. You may be high in the running for “luckiest man alive” with me.
By the way, you were on the Selman Expressway there - it’s all beautified for tourists. The Gandy is the old bridge across Tampa Bay that connects Tampa and St. Pete. If you stay on the Selman long enough heading west out of Tampa you end up on the Gandy bridge
Man you ROCK brother!!! Man that was an awesome thing you did for Dave🤘🏻🤘🏻I’ve got one of those firebirds too in tobacco sunburst with no Gibson logo and after new tuners and a neck and bridge adjustment it’s incredible… mine has the mini hum buckets on it….love it…. Is Kathy gonna start selling pickups? Sign me up🤘🏻🤘🏻I’m in Bradenton Fl and I just love your channel 🤘🏻🤘🏻thanks for all the great content
man i love this channel! somewhere along the way of me watching all these guitar shows you guys came along to my feed and man am i happy. i love every little bit of it. keep putting em through and ill keep watching!
Holy Cow that thing is FN AWESOME!!!! Sean I think this is my favorite guitar I have seen on your channel. Kathy's pickup sound great. I would have done chrome cover though. Can we purchase pickups from Kathy?🎸🤘🏻
I been following your channel for a little while now and I love it. You've inspired me to work on my own guitar and other people's as well. I really haven't dove deep into any yet but I will soon on my own. I'm really thinking of converting my squire strat into a hardtail and HH set up. My only issue with a strat style guitar is the placement of the top volume knob. I have a habit of rolling my volume off unintentionally while playing. I would also like to polish the frets and swap out the cheap tuners with some quality lockers. So far all I've done to one is adjust the neck, the bridge, the pickups and intonate. I would really appreciate any advice you could give me on what kind of hardware to use and the correct way to make it a hardtail. Thanks in advance and I will keep watching and learning from you. Keep doing what you do from a Georgia fan
Hey SMG, You have an awesome wife! She shares your passion. I'm officially jealous. If I lived close to you,I'd have you guys do my guitar wiring because my guitar tech just passed away. 😢
Very awesome of you speaks volumes about you nice to see good people doing good things in these times!!! Never stop we need more people like all of you guys oh and kathy too haha!!!
The Firebird played Freebird! Watch the great Allen Collins show us how it's done in TWO PERFORMANCES 1st and 2nd trip to London. Lynryd Skynyrd 1975 Free Bird BBC Old Grey Whistle Test [ 1975, unsure what exact date...early in the year probably] and Lynyrd Skynyrd - Free Bird (Live Old Grey Whistle Test - 1975) [November 11, 1975]
I love firebird pickups, have a couple of Lollar's in a Shijie Telecaster (TLV Classic P-90), replaced the P-90 pickups that were excellent. The pickups on my Epiphone Firebird, which is built just like the Gibson version (similar anyways), with a neck-through, and real Firebird pickups that SOUND like it. I paid about twice as much as this Firebird not on amazon cost, I wonder how they would compare? Maybe with Cathy's pickups the Epi would wilt...? Of course we are talking about humbuckers vs Firebird pickups, which are more like a fat single-coil sound, so it would be a dual to the end of love.............!
Gulf Coast here!! Nice job on that guitbox! One thing I would.ve done is the nut. A nice Tusq or bone nut !! Definitely got a follower!! Video had me cracking up!
I've been watching a LOT of your videos the last couple weeks, and it has really pushed me to put in the effort to learn how to work on my own gear. So, now, my old pile of junk Washburn strat copy from the 90s is in pieces, holes have all been filled and it's been sanded down, and now I'm waiting on a pile of parts to make my own Temucaster that hopefully actually plays as it was never a fun guitar to play in the first place.
Man you scored. Scar that guitar and Rock on ! Having Kathy is a plus, she is going to do fine with her pickups. I love it ! Keep up the great work your doing ! Thanks
Enjoy your show & looking forward to seeing Cathy’s pickups. Question, what is the little machine you use with felt wheels & Noxon to polish frets? Thanks, m
Wow, you know your stuff. Ive done some mods but never this detailed. My next endeavor will be replacing pick ups. I have a G and L that will sound amazing with better pick ups. I just subscribed. I can learn a lot from you. Thanks Man.
I bought the same guitar. I raised the action a little bit and the G and D were still dead at the 7th fret. I filed the fret into compliance and the guitar is now playable. But not everyone has tools or knowledge to fix this kind of defect. Otherwise, I agree with you... the paint and neck are eye candy. To Firefly's credit, I never did contact them for any kind of help. They might have tried to make it right. Nice review btw.
Subscribe To Cathy! www.youtube.com/@ScarMyPickups
I wonder if his is an Epiphone reject some company finished work on for themselves?
Subbed & watched the two shorts a few days ago now. Can’t wait to see Cathy’s first video! 👍🏼
Super nice workstation she’s got. That personalized housing for the winder is slick!
Subscribed!!! Much Love 🤘🏼
Hey Sean,
Thanks for the fast response and the link to Cathy’s pickups. Saw the zebras and I’m hoping they can still be had for a while longer while I get a few bucks together.
Be well be strong Rage on!
Got reason to get better now
Yeah, I'll admit it, I kinda teared up a little when you gave that man the guitar, I guess I ain't as tough as I thought I was. Bless you for doing that.
I used to think I was purdy tough, til I got hurt reeeeal bad...
Life has a way of humbling you
That was a cool deal
This is the best guitar show on the internet. Sean is so kind for giving him a guitar. I challenge anyone to think about their friends, have they given you a guitar? I bet not.
Nice looking firebird style guitar, Cathy's pickups sure made it sound good, and that was really cool hand delivering the guitar to Dave, sure put a smile on his face. We'll see you tonight Sean & Cathy 🤘
I love ya man because you are sooo damn real! This " northern boy " loves your Southern-sweet hospitality way of no BS and our mutual love of guitars! You make the viewers feel like you're a real friend . I look forward to seeing more of your videos!
Wow! What a beautiful act of kindness! Then for him to play “How Great Thou Art” shows his heart too. I was really touched by it all. Thank you for a wonderful episode…
When his friend got the guitar at the end was just so heart warming
So cool to see both of you standing together!
I love it……thankyou for giving that guitar to Dave….see you tonight Buddy,
Shawn, you did a good thing, my brother!
I don't believe in karma, but I do believe that you are unbelievably blessed! You're blessed with talent for playing guitar and for working on them! But even more so Shawn, you're blessed with being married to your best friend and business partner! You and Cathy are roll models and an inspiration among the dark and disgusting videos on RUclips! I've been a PROFESSIONAL MUSICIAN and PROFESSIONAL AUDIO ENGINEER in Las Vegas for 45 years. I've played up and down the Sunset Strip in Hollywood and up and down the Strip in Las Vegas with my band chasing that illusive record deal and opening up for acts from Pat Travers to Poison, Warrant to Doken, Slash to Vince Neil, Ace Frehley to Quiet Riot! You get the picture... I worked audio for everyone from James Brown to The Bangles, Christina Aguilera to Sound Garden, Mariah Carey to Billy Ray Cyrus, Prince to KISS...
I love your authenticity! You know what you're doing, but you're not a RUclips Douche! LOL...
Anyway Shawn, I'm a big fan! I got really sick unexpectedly and am pretty much bedridden 18 hours a day. (Long story) I had to sell my collection of 23 guitars including 3 Les Pauls. One of which I had made to my secs at the Gibson Custom Shop just to keep a roof over my head until my SS Disability case got approved (2 1/2 year wait) I quickly had to get off of my "guitar snob" kick but was so pleasantly surprised to find out that you REALLY COULD FIND A PLAYABLE, GOOD SOUNDING GUITAR FOR UNDER $300.00! So you and Cathy always put a smile on my face no matter how much pain I'm in and I look forward to seeing new posts from you when they come out.
Keep the faith and keep fighting the good fight my friend! And keep providing that you DON'T HAVE TO SPEND
$1,000.00 + TO BUY A GOOD PLAYING, GOOD SOUNDING, AND GOOD LOOKING GUITAR!
GOD BLESS AND TAKE CARE GUYS!
I love the strap you gave Dave with the guitar. You and Cathy ROCK!
I love the strap... I gotta get a longer tongue for it... I is too fat..!
@@DaveFromTyler I'm a "triple fat" size myself.
That’s not how I use my fret erasers, I go over each fret lengthwise in three ascending grits, 220, 800, 2000, and the frets come up like mirrors. Takes a little bit of effort but if you’re gonna be playing it, it’s well worth the effort.
The channel is growing nicely now, 100k by the end of ‘24 I predict. Happy to be lip-flappin’ since it was only 9k or so.
Dave is just awesome. “Mercy!”
People like y'all are very rare. God bless you both.
Man it is so cool of you to give him that guitar...thank you !
Just wanted to say thanks ! As a 50 year old new to playing guitar, your channel is the one that has taught me the most about working on my own guitars. Not only has it gave me the knowledge , but also the courage to do a lot of stuff myself and has saved me boat loads of money. So thanks again !

That was very nice of you to bless that man with one of your special guitars, sir.
Really cool!👍🏼
What a wonderful beautiful heart warming video of what you did for your good friend. World needs more of you. Thanks for making my day and sharing and appreciating people that really matter and make a difference in our lives. Keep rolling and scarring.
The inlays in that thing look nicely done. Shaped real nice the way they’re rounded the sides of them and the frets too.
That was so cool of you .Thank you for helping out i so wish there was away to send you a pic of my Frankenstrat i built would love to get your opinion on it BTW great job on that Firebird clone
Good looking guitar. Kathy makes awesome mini-humbuckers!
I picked up a classic sunburst Firebird with mini humbuckers from China for under $250. It's got a Richlite fretboard and aside from the mini potentiometers, there is not one thing substandard on this guitar.

Hey Sean and Cathy!Thanks for another great review of a kewl guitar but my favorite was your gift to WGP! You two are awesome!
That's enuf lip flappin!
Loved the gifting at Dave's. Really touching.
Nice guitar, sounds good. Please provide a link for the pickups? Thanks
Probably an unbranded Epi from the same factory in China. Good find!
I'm so proud of and happy for you 2. This is great to see you both doing what you enjoy.
Nice work all around! What a blessing you've done for Dave! That was sweet to watch!!
Love the channel! I'm learning a lot every time I watch one of your videos. The Firebird look-alike came out really nice, the chrome hardware really set it off, and Cathy's pickups sound great in it. Keep up the good work!
Hey man, you do have a heart of gold that was incredibly awesome. You given that man a guitar that was great. There are good. People still left in the world. You’re a perfect example.

Those pickups do sound killer!!!!! Nice work Mrs. Cathy.
Those pickups sure did give that guitar a nice variety of awesome sounding tones. Very nice.
Nice of you guys. That there made a great day for him. I used to live in that area, Palm Harbor, & Dunedin. 10 years ago.
Two very pretty guitars today, and I noticed that the one you gave to your friend didn’t have the kerning problem in the logo I was bitching about. Nice.
those pickups are AMAZING.
Way to surprise Dave by delivering your own guitar personally. We all love him! He’s the bestest even if he says he’s the worst’est! He definitely deserves to have one of your models and will surely enjoy it. 😎🤘🏻🎸🔊🎶❤️🔥
That’s so funny that this company used Epiphone parts and then scratched it out very poorly, lol. I like Cathy’s pickups in there for sure. Way to bring this Firebird shaped guitar into the rockin zone! 🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻🎸🤘🏻
That ended up looking and sounding great, nice job you did for Dave! I think I would look for a cool Firebird sticker for the headstock!
Cathy's pickups sound dope.... Can't wait to buy some
Shawn you seem like a genuine good guy,that’s why I watch your channel.😊
God bless you Shaun & cathy,I loved seeing Dave smile with true joy at that sweet guitar you gifted him, playing guitar is the only thing that keeps me sane & I truly know I'm not the only one that feels that way.

Great work Shaun I love your style brother ❤
Excellent video and gesture... I wish I knew the output of the old waxed pups vs. the new pups... New sub
🔥🎸🔥
Man, That’s a beautiful firebird! You definitely picked the right pickups!
Kathy knocked it out of the Park, Home Run ! Your pickups are fantastic ! Sounds wonderful, you have Scared that beautiful guitar ! 🇺🇸👍🎼
When I watch your videos, you remind me of the "Sean and Cathy's" that I know where I'm from... An awesome couple with individual talents that can be combined in a shared passion to create wonderful things for not only yourselves but others as well. Keep doing the Good Lord's work on this earth. 😊
Love those Cathy "MotherBuckers" pick-up's 🎸🤘

Can't wait to hear it some more tonight! Cathy's pick ups rock.
Your wife's pickups sound amazing.
I think so too!
Love this one... blessed Dave... thank you folks
Fantastic job, Sean. Lovely that you gave that blue guitar to the WGP. I'm sure he was just amazed that you'd do that for him. :)
Hey SMG,
You have an awesome wife! She shares your passion. I'm officially jealous. If I lived close to you,I'd have you guys do my guitar wiring because my guitar tech just passed away. 😢
That sounds badass.i want some of those pickups
U guys are the nicest people i no.ty for ur generosity that rought a tear tomy eye
I noticed that your computer behind you is recording what you are playing as you test out the guitars. Cool!
the guitar is beautiful
the job you made on it is amazing
love this video, thanx
Nice to see it's not just me who's learnt to remove the switch knob before working on a guitar.
Very awesome of you speaks volumes about you nice to see good people doing good things in these times!!! Never stop we need more people like all of you guys oh and kathy too haha!!!
Ya made my day bro. In a increasingly dark world you are light.
New subscriber here. You have a phenomenal channel.
Hats off to you for your expert craftsmanship, in-depth knowledge, humor, and common sense.
Got a kit guitar recently. Both the bridge and stop piece were epiphone with the logo slightly scratched off.

Just found your channel. New subscriber. Man, those pickups Cathy made are killer!
Been a new subscriber for a week or so now... love these cheap guitar tests/comparisons. Great channel, man.
Awesome, thank you!
Nice.....potted!! It's cool that they left long wires. I like that for when you got to mess with it
You really made a nice guitar even nicer. Great work!
Can't get enough of that Bowie, Sean!
Killer Firebird and thats a beautiful Scarred guitar for Dave, God bless you and Kathy always man.
Wasn't sure I never liked white pups but with that white pickgaurdd and chrome rings damn that looks shaweeeet.
Awesome job. A white racing stripe down the center of the rise of the guitar would really mak that look sick
I love firebird pickups, have a couple of Lollar's in a Shijie Telecaster (TLV Classic P-90), replaced the P-90 pickups that were excellent. The pickups on my Epiphone Firebird, which is built just like the Gibson version (similar anyways), with a neck-through, and real Firebird pickups that SOUND like it. I paid about twice as much as this Firebird not on amazon cost, I wonder how they would compare? Maybe with Cathy's pickups the Epi would wilt...? Of course we are talking about humbuckers vs Firebird pickups, which are more like a fat single-coil sound, so it would be a dual to the end of love.............!
Gulf Coast here!! Nice job on that guitbox! One thing I would.ve done is the nut. A nice Tusq or bone nut !! Definitely got a follower!! Video had me cracking up!
I've been watching a LOT of your videos the last couple weeks, and it has really pushed me to put in the effort to learn how to work on my own gear. So, now, my old pile of junk Washburn strat copy from the 90s is in pieces, holes have all been filled and it's been sanded down, and now I'm waiting on a pile of parts to make my own Temucaster that hopefully actually plays as it was never a fun guitar to play in the first place.
Great to hear!
Hey Sean that firebird is real nice and sounds just as good as it looks. Great job you all.
Mercy ! I got a little tear in my eye when he saw the guitar.
I don’t want to cross Miss Cathy, but I wondered what those original pups sounded like. That’s a sweet guitar!
Great video as always. I really like the left handed tuner trick, thank you.
Man you scored. Scar that guitar and Rock on ! Having Kathy is a plus, she is going to do fine with her pickups. I love it ! Keep up the great work your doing ! Thanks
Great job,man!
Enjoy your show & looking forward to seeing Cathy’s pickups. Question, what is the little machine you use with felt wheels & Noxon to polish frets? Thanks, m
That Peavey is a looker. I've never seen that model before 👍
Those pickups do sound pretty good. That’s a really cool gesture to that world’s greatest guitar player fella. That’s pretty cool man🤘🏼🪶
I've watched and enjoyed a lot of your videos...best one yet...no fretwork needed in that heart of yours, Bro
Cool guitar
It's unfortunate that it does not have mini hums ☹️
Wow, you know your stuff. Ive done some mods but never this detailed. My next endeavor will be replacing pick ups. I have a G and L that will sound amazing with better pick ups. I just subscribed. I can learn a lot from you. Thanks Man.
Man..I wished my family and friends where in Tampa!! I'd move!! Beautiful!! Everything about this clip is..!!
nice work Sean, some cool tones with the modded switching ,
and chapau to cathy`s cool winding 😇👍ace pick-ups,
Man..ive ALWAYS loved Firebirds. I'd love to have one of these to mod, just like you did.❤🤟
How do I keep missing out on a Scarred Guitar! I Love that offset and blue! You do great thing here that’s for sure! Thank You!
Not the firebird I’m talking about Yours!
Came out clean
Cathy makes great pickups, that's for sure! And you make great guitars, too!
I bought the same guitar. I raised the action a little bit and the G and D were still dead at the 7th fret. I filed the fret into compliance and the guitar is now playable. But not everyone has tools or knowledge to fix this kind of defect. Otherwise, I agree with you... the paint and neck are eye candy.

Making someone happy has got to be the best thing anyone can do...😀
What part of Florida are you in Sean I’m in Jax FL big fan of the channel
Fair play Tampa looks stunning. Greetings from the UK.
