The thing a lot of people don't understand about Goodwill is that it hires people who are trying to better their lives from what it was. People who have been in trouble with the law. Those who were involved with alcohol and drug abuse but have gone through rehab often Court ordered are given jobs and monitored on their progress. They usually start at the bottom and build themselves up to a higher level by attending training classes and on merit. The money they collect for items goes to these peoples salary. There is also schooling in other areas for repair of some items that come through the stores. I've known a few people who have gone through some of these stores. The difference and turn around in them is very noticeable. So yes it is a business but it is also a human help program.
Yeah, that's the picture they like to paint to the public. The reality of it is that they exploit those people with what amounts to slave labor. They hire mentally handicapped people and literally pay them less than one dollar an hour. This is all legal because the laws our country and most of our states have on the matter are severely outdated. Now, this might not be that much of an issue were it not for the fact that Goodwill is a giant corporation with a corporate structure that includes a top echelon of corporate bigwigs that makes millions and millions of dollars a year by exploiting those people. I'm 37 years old and I've been going to Goodwill since I can remember. When I was a kid their prices were fully reflective of the fact that they were getting ALL of their inventory for free. Now they simply take advantage. Selling decent used goods to poor people at prices they could afford was not only the point of their store, but the point of thrift stores in general. When I see Goodwill selling a Gibson for 5 figures or more, all I can think of is "How often do those guitars come from ignorant people that don't realize their value who could probably use that 5 figure sum A LOT MORE than the Goodwill Corporation?". If I was working at a Goodwill and I saw someone trying to donate a Gibson or other valuable vintage instrument, you bet your ass I'd tell them what it's really worth and who their 'donation' is going to benefit ultimately. It's not at all uncommon for a regional Goodwill CEO to make more than half a million dollars a year. Non-profit my
the people who have been in trouble with the law are sentenced to do community service there. Davidson County Court system sends them plenty of free labor. a friend of mine had his house to burn down Christmas Morning and I took him to goodwill and they said they didn't give people clothing. I took him from there to Salvation Army, and they gave him enough clothing and shoes to get him by.
sometimes it depends on the location of the Goodwill store
what type of employees are hired
it's not just the type you described
@@solaris70 my aunt had married a man years back after he went through rehab and took a job at good will working his way up the ladder. Also getting involved with a Christian organization through them. Same thing has transpired with a couple of friends of several years. These people if they have the drive are trained in business to become management if the desire or what ever level of employment they desire. It may depend on location but I've seen it to many times . Known several who have been able to transform themselves with the aid of Good Will. They never claimed to be selling strictly to benefit charities but they do work on bettering their employees lives if they choose it. No not every employee has the drive and are only clerk material for stores outside of Good Will. But my aunts husband did assume a management position at another business other than market chains and is doing well in his position there. So your assumption that I'm wrong is Ill founded.
Lots of nice stuff goes through Goodwill but often at crazy high prices.
DUDE! I have that IYV! The only difference is mine has these neat wooden pickups on it. It's heavy, it's dense, and it sounds great! Fully hollow, no center block, so hang on tight if you're putting any effects on it! Far from flawless close up, it still commands attention.
I call mine The Beast, bought it from a local builder, and seller of cheap Chinese guitars that he mods and fixes up. He carved the bracing a bit to lighten it up some.
It is my main living room guitar, and I typically learn all my songs on that one accoustically before going into my guitar room to play my electrics.
It is currently in DADGAD tuning, which suits it quite nicely.
I think goodwill back in the 60s was more of a charity but now it is a bunch of crooks IMO
Hey! If you have never played higher end schecters u are missing out!!! They have way better QC then gibson/epiphone and even my fenders! I have about 20 guitars now custom shops and normals and Americans and the schecter play/sound on par with things 3x their price! I have no idea why they get a bad wrap but seriously my neck through schecters are amazing! Highly suggest them!!
That combo of p90s on that wrap around 61 is the best middle position you'll ever hear
Nope didn't notice the missing tuner either, between your Goodwill narration lulling me into guitar dreams and the abalone inlays etc. That 61 SG was awesome.
the bridge on the white strat looked like a wilkinson
No doubt someone pointed this out to you, Austin: "technically" this is NOT a Les Paul. SG Special's NEVER had Les Paul tags. The Standard did, the Junior did, but the SG Special never did. A guitarist I know has a 1960 SG Special, one of the first ones ever built. Unfortunately the guitar has been modded with a batwing pickguard and humbuckers, so it doen't look like an SG Special any longer, but he has pictures to prove the guitar originally was a 1960 SG Special.
Trogly! Iyv's are awesome! Yes, they are very inexpensive but they are that kind of guitar that if you know what you are doing, can magically become awesome instruments. I personally have 2 that I cannot stop messing with. I love them.
I won a Mahar branded strat at Cedar Point - total cost was only about $10. It was my first fully plywood guitar
My first Gibson was a 61 SG exactly like this one. I only parted with it because it was blown over at a gig in Malibu and the headstock snapped. Such a bummer!
Funny you mentioned Dave Grohl on the Epiphone 339. That's exactly why we got the Pelham Blue ES-339 that comes with humbuckers for my daughter. She's a huge Foo Fighters fan and a big Dave fan. It's as close as we could get to a signature for a reasonable price.
LOVE those old-school shop badges and stamps! Talk about 'provenance' - they're part of the story the guitar has to tell. I've got a '58 ES-125 with a label inside the bass side f-hole: "Durdel's Stars of Tomorrow Studio - Toledo, Ohio". Got it online thru GC and immediately contacted the shop- still in business and delighted to hear from me - that stuff is pure magic.
The stamp from that challenger guitar is a shop that’s about ten minutes from my house.
I believe that Chuck Levins shop tag was a rental back in the day.
Hey trogly, not sure if im crazy or not but there seems to be a little electrical buzz in the voice audio… might just be me but heads up 👍
Not sure what you may be hearing, I didn't notice anything different in his audio. JMO
Yeah I heard it to, it was like some type of feedback.
That idea of winning one of those arcade guitars would be a really amazing video
The Arondite series appeared in the Ibanez 2007 catalog & I think that was all. There were 3 models, clearly inspired by a classic; an explorer, an iceman and a les paul. Mahogany, set necks, nice inlays, higher output pick-ups and subtle binding are winners in my book. I think they're under-rated, managed to track one down a couple years back and I'm so glad I bought it.
I got the Les Paul version because it's the least "out there" of the three and has the best inlays (abalone stars).
that flam top n back fender is one of the most beautiful suburst strats ive seen.... usually i love all white, but those are growing on me after ive seen claptons brownie
Yeah that blingy LYV guitar headstock got me too, I never saw the missing tuning peg.
Here we go!
I have the pr5e acoustic in black. Great guitar.
Trogly! The Epi Special II GT came stuck a kill switch in the tone knob!
Those little neck cracks are on almost every fender. I don’t think it necessarily means they were put through trauma. I had a brand new Tele hanging on the wall for 10 years that those cracks developed in and it was just a decoration
I missed the missing machine head as well.
As not only a musician/musical gear collector but coaster enthusiast, I'd love to see you go to Cedar Point. As for Dave & Buster's, sadly I only see the acoustic guitar in the prize section now.
I did notice the missing tuner!
I had a black Epiphone PR5E and it was the best electro acoustic I've played so far. The neck was really meant for electric guitar players that wanted to play acoustic. I gave it away as I ahd too many guitars at the time.
@7:20 Looks similar to my Holy Grail guit, the 1986 Schon Guitar. Wanted the Schon so bad I made my own.
Pretty cool B'nez though
I own one of those Epi ES339 P90 Pro guitars. Love it!
This one RUclips dude got a 58 lp from goodwill and put it back together, that thing sounds gnarly.
Goodwill has been totally found out. It’s basically eBay at this point, because the people listing the donations know what they have. I still have mixed feelings about Goodwill making so much money on this stuff. Is it even legal for a nonprofit company like them to be profiting so much off of peoples “Goodwill?” They have been making millions more dollars since they have been auctioning off their donations.
The difference between Goodwill and ebay at this point is that at least with ebay I have some idea of what I am buying and you have direct contact with the seller. Goodwill doesn't have that and almost every instrument I have bought from them has had some undisclosed damage and getting in contact with customer support is a nightmare.
@@TXCrafts1 Absolutely. Totally agree.
@@TXCrafts1once upon a time would have never expected I'd be buying guitars on Ebay, because of how shady it used to be. Yet, the only Gibson I ever owned came from Ebay about three years ago.
@@Mephilis78 it's surprising what you can find out there. Most of my best finds have been through pawn shops believe it or not. The only Gibson I own (1991 Gibson SG) came from a pawn shop as well as a 67 Guild 12 string.
I did not notice the missing tuner
Hi, I have 2 IYV a semi hollow and a Mustang both very nice.
to me the goodwill auctions almost always get bid up way too high.
It makes little sense to me, too. I get the idea that "it's a charity" or at least it tries to look like it is, but at least admit that if you buy there, you're probably paying eBay pricing for items that (last I checked,) (1) aren't guaranteed to work, (2) have no return policy, and (3) aren't even always cleaned off first before they're sent out.
Dang, Dude! I only have 2 electric guitars, and you featured both of them in one video! 5 years ago, I bought my satin black/black/black Epiphone Special-II from a local thrift store for $45, and just recently scored a cherry red '14 Epiphone 339-Pro from a local music store for $450. And yes, I didn't notice the missing tuner on the abalone bling machine either 😊
Goodwill does more than you think. The money its thrift stores make goes towards community programs like job training, placement services, and classes for people who have disabilities or are otherwise challenged in finding traditional employment. Goodwill provides free job training and career coaching to people with disabilities and disadvantages, as well as their own retail associates. All of that cost money. Most stores sell the items given to that particular store from the surrounding community. Do your research before throwing someone or an organization under the bus….
I would like to get a SOBE Epiphone special if I could find one cheap enough. I don't really know what I think about the guitar having no fret inlays, but I would still like to try one.
I keep looking for a Les Paul like I had in school. It got stolen. But I still have the hard chainsaw case.
Les Paul "deluxe" firebrand I got it in 86-ish so it had to be before then. The toggle was down by the tone and volume. Any ideas? How to find one like it? No pick guard, and bright yellow.
That incident of the one seller riding down the wrong asking price is straight out of the first Sing! installment. Good thing it was rectified eventually.
1961 Gibson SG Special Guitar (Serial Number: 39589) Is listed on goodwill again with 3 days left. Current bid is 5001.00. I wonder what happened? Winner backed out or what?
IYV guitars are amazing. I have 3.
I had two, but I traded one in on a squier 59 with a Super Distortion in the bridge. But the remaining IYV is this exact model! It's a great guitar for the money.
👍👍
👍
Whats a 335 doing with a trapeze tail piece?
Won 2 strat style guitars at cedar point. I have the ring toss secret dow to a science.
👍🏻
Jyk
Can you review or have you heard anything good about the Edwards E-SA 180 Ltc semi hollow body 335 style guitars? Think esp Japan makes them.
Love hunti g for guitars.
Me too! It’s way more fun with money though
I had a Maestro SG, it was bad. The frets would cut your hands up.
YO
When Joe Bonamassa wants a tax write-off...
Yo
✌️
I saw that one lol
Those Ibanez I can’t remember the model name but they are pretty sweet playing guitars for some reason I think darkstar or something cheesy like that is the model name
Edit Ariondyte?
For those of you who don't know who Glen is..............
me neither.
😢
Do these get donated to Goodwill? If so do goodwill tell the donater they are valuable? I just fear some old person is robbed.
Totally missed the missing tuner the first time
You bastard, why are you telling people about the shector with the fender case I am bidding on it right now for the case. I am a big fan of putting my teles in those cases.
Downgraded tailpiece you mean.
What year is considered "Vintage" nowadays? When I started playing back in 1992, anything from the 60s and 70s was "vintage".
Now in 2023, are guitars from the 1990s and 2000s considered "vintage"?
Woo hoo
Trogly it would be so cool if you donated all of your guitars to goodwill that would allow so many children to get a chance to play a guitar that wouldn’t get to play guitar in the future. That would be the ultimate random act of kindness for the world of music.
Wallmart
Target
I got 6 guitars on goodwill 12 years ago 2 were trash but four were amazing!
Dang that's nice! Not $75k nice though.
" Giant railroad tracks". 🤣🤣🤣🤣
who in there right minds would donate that??? like id keep it personally but if for whatever reason id wanna get rid of it id sell it, if i just wanted to do something nice and give it away id give it to someone i know who would love to play it not donate it at a thrift store
Probably people who don't know what they have. Probably belong to someone who passed away and the family just wanted to liquidate everything
@@TXCrafts1 I heard of a Mosrite V-I that was left on the curb with another guitar for spring cleaning trash pickup day, so yeah, it happens.
@@101Volts I've pulled a few interesting instruments out of the trash (best was a 40s supertone parlor) so I can imagine
Nice video great gibsons. I love this video. Other brand guitars slightly interesting
Real bargains are a thing of the past ,thanks to the enternet and ebay.
philips screw heads?
wish i could afford a vintage fender mustang maybe jaguar or other offset! love fenders offsets. would love to see your current collection
When I see this shit I hope to GOD it was some ignorant family member just taking some of pops old crap to the goodwill. I hope they find out later how much it sold for, and it HAUNTS THEM. I am not a good person apparently, but Goodwill is no longer about Good Will toward anyone but themselves anyway so.....
Time for the daily dose people 👍
Troglodytes assemble!!!
There are quite a few people out there making their full time job and living off scoring cheap things at Goodwill stores and others to flip in their own shops or ebay. Mainly gaming stuff/electronics, cookware, vintage and designer brand clothing, toys, antiques, etc. You definitely have to have an eye and know your stuff better than they do.
I also got blinded by the bling !
Didn't notice cause it struck me halfway blind🙃
Hey I’ve got an idea… why don’t you go buy more guitars. Jk
What wrong headed soul would donate a quality guitar to Goodwill ? It ain’t a real charity, it’s a fake charity, and they are getting rich off people’s ignorance !
Review a Harley Benton please !!
you're a click away! ruclips.net/video/3TXx4wSCDZo/видео.html&pp=ygUUdHJvZ2x5IGhhcmxleSBiZW50b24%3D
totally missed the tuner
... Never buy anything off Goodwill. Total waste of time
