Refinishing a Guitar Neck with Johnny Stevens

- “Hey guys! I thought i’d show you how I like to refinish the necks on my guitars! I can’t stand the feel of glossy paint when it gets all sticky, but this video will teach you how to keep that from happening incase it bothers you the way it bothers me! Please don’t try this unless you’re absolutely sure you want to! If you want, you can try it out on a painted baseball bat first if to see if you’re going to enjoy the feel! Below is a list of materials I used”
Towels and rags
lots of sandpaper, different grits
birchwood casey gunstock oil
birchwood casey wax
0000 steel wool
yellow frog tape
Let me know if you want to see more of this kind of stuff!

Dude, please make more RUclips videos! Watching you do even random shit does not get old lol. Hope you and the boys are doing good!
Did I watch this whole tutorial with no intentions of ever doing this? yes, yes I did. Was I educated and entertained, also yes! 😊
This video is so fucking wholesome. I build custom cabinets for a living and there’s so much advice I could give but you really have your own style figured out. Love it Johnny
Simple and straight to the point is the best approach.
always down for advice!
@@TERRIBLETUBE ever worked with linseed oil - try it on a piece of wood and see what ya think. I put it on old wood I make shit out of and I just like what it does but for what you are doing I don't know... also denatured alchol is good for cleaning wood - I am sure the dude above knows more, I am an amateur.
Love this! You should post more stuff like this 🫡🖤🤍
Johnny this was a great video! I liked it so much, and you answered all my questions even when you thought you were talking too much, I was like naw man you educating. I thought this was cool to see as I never seen a refinishing of a guitar neck or guitar before in general. I hope to see more videos on whatever knowledge you have. 🤙🏽🖤
As always Ellie is adorable!
next time i’ll shoot the whole video in landscape my bad😂
Reading through the comments, people think it must be great to get hit on all the time but you know how old it gets, lucky you are a dude cuz like any great rocker you can take it to the grave but us old ladies get no respct (that was in a Rodney Dangerfield voice in my head)
Yeah now im cross eyed, fuck!
Damn I should have checked this sooner. Kool.
Incase no one has said it yet, that blue nail polish is fire! 🔥🩵💅🏻
Johnny, you're hilarious! It's so cool to see the transformation and your love and care you put into this beautiful axe ❤
The Star Wars font😭❤️
Do I own a guitar? No.
But did I watch this entire video? Yes.
that dog in the background is a good boy
Saw you recently in christchurch, your band is amazing!! The way your voice and instruments sing together makes a beautiful sound. One of the best bands out there
Highly Suspect is my favorite band and Johnny, you are my favorite guitar player. Please please please make more guitar videos lol sorry for glazing but damn bro y'all are the shit
Shreddy Murphy 🤣🤣🤣
I know nothing about guitars or refinishing them, but here I am. Thoroughly enjoying it. All for Johnny. MCID. 🖤
Thanks for just being you dude!
Non-musician here...never ever would have thought of this as a thing. Something new every day...thx, man!
Never need a break from that gorgeous Voice
The star wars font got me lolol awesome vid
Can't wait for the next album. I also really appreciate that you still release CDs for your albums.
Refinish in my ears with your next album, thanks.
Why are DIY videos so satisfying?! Lol
Def watch more if you decide to make more..
Btw love the blue gel polish 💙
Saw you last year in Newport KY/Cincinnati.. awesome concert.. love your blues
Ahhhhhh FUCKING AWESOME SHIT DUDE!!! Would have never expected this kind of content. I am a new subscriber but a long time fan.
Very Very Nice Johnny. That came out awesome, 🎸😊🖤Yes, do more of this.
If you’re thinking about making more videos like this I’d love to see something about your guitar tone and pedalboard set up and everything
Also, coming to see you guys at the Stone Pony August 1st. Cant come soon enough!!!
MCID
It's always such a pleasure to see you. Music or whatever, I'm here for it. You look well. I hope you're feeling well. You and the boys are back home. WELCOME!
The neck is sexy!! Lookin'good Johnny ! Just wanna thank you for getting me thru some very dark days! My husband traded me in for a newer model! I lost everythin 0:02 g! I had to start all over again! Found you and your music, got clean, got sober! It's amazing how good music can replace the want and the need of an Opioid! To bad ya can't put music in a rig! Wow! What a trip that would be! Anyway, again thank you again Johnny for your wonderful melodies and your powerful lyrics! ~
Love from Christina in beautiful Naples Florida on the Gulf of Mexico ~❤
Hi Johnny, thanks for this cool tutorial ! I've never dared to sand that much cuz i've been advise to just lighly sand with steel wool. It's less sticky but the look of your neck is awesome ! I guess i got a new cool project for a weekend 😄
“Bring out your inner shreddy Murphy” 💀
Awesome video J!! Keep them coming 😄
Johnny man i love your music...but when you said you watch post10 videos it blew my mind. Ive tried recruiting that dude to clean our culverts and stuff on the railroad i work on.haha.
Hey Johnny, this is good shit bud. So tired of everyone trying to be youtubery. Refreshing to have a person be a person, also loving Summertime Voodoo and thanks for the info/tutorial
It's not child proof it's Johnny proof lol
This is the exact reason i fell in love with my matte finish guitar.
Smooth slides.
Stay cool Johnny.
Awesome viddy and beautiful Girl Ellie.🖤
Man, I don't even own a guitar and watched the whole ass video! Johnny's vibe is so wholesome and badass!
1:00 “I’m sorry that I’m… corny” 😂
Massive how's it hanging from Australia 🦘🦘. When are you coming to Australia..?
november
@@TERRIBLETUBE fantastic, are you coming to South Australia by any chance.? 🥴
Love it man... Please make more videos like this. I was watching this on TV and it was almost like I was hangin out with ya. 😂
Definitely here for the random guitar videos my dude!!! ✌️✌️✌️✌️
I do understand the gloss neck issues... Cant stand a neck gettin gunked up with hand ass. Thats why all my guitars have satin necks. 😅
Cant wait for the new album drop. My band is dropping our first album this Friday. The same day we had a release date announced was the same date you guys announced your release date as well. Definitely made that day that much cooler for me. Huge fan here, hope all is well with you guys.🤙🤙🤙
Feel free to send that bad boy my way brother! But honestly sweet vid my guy. Keep it up! --Big fan
🔥💀✌️Dope! SG’s are my favorite!
I might have to do this to my SG. The OCD guy in me will have to make it a little neater at the top and bottom.
I'm not even into guitars but that was an impressive video. Great job explaining what you were doing, how, and why you were doing it 🤘
Hyped for the new album!
My buddy is a luthier in Austin Tx. Check out Chris Forshage. He makes hollow body arch tops and shares great vids too. Highly RE-spect.
Very interesting!
I was waiting for the wax-on wax-off 😂 This was pretty cool to see. I had no idea that refinishing the necks was a thing. Is it a common practice with guitarists? Jiggle Ellie's jowls for me!
excellent! my dad is 77 and still has his first guitar he bought in San Francisco - a 62 fender Stratocaster. I've seen him refinish the entire guitar twice. he takes the whole thing apart. everything off. he has kept it in amazing condition. one of my first memories was feeling the "fur" inside the case, I loved the way that guitar case smelled.
he was in his first band at 16 and at 77, he is now in 2 bands!
thank you for posting this vid, you brought back some happy childhood memories for me!
you got me with the Star wars thing!
I have loved your guitar style the instant I heard it years ago...have you ever considered doing a short album of just instrumentals? just mental meanderings letting the strings sing?
all the best to you & yours!
🌸❤️🎶🙏🎶❤️🌸
put a light coat of Vaseline or grease on the threads of the container and you won't have such a hard time with the cap anymore.
Thanks Johnny, love you doing YT content, really any of your content, but this was really cool.
My name is human changed me forever❤❤
@antoniogarza vibes with the editing.
the vertical filming is killing me aaaaaaa
I love it, and you are a great teacher...
Definitely make more videos! This was so interesting to watch and your humor made it that much better. Guitar looks sick!
Just fold it in, David. Just fold it in!
Long smooth strokes, no duck tape, dust rag, awkward silence. Dejavu 😅 great tutorial J
I'm feeling the way that you're stripping the paint
Stripped it down to the taint
It's now so stripped down it looks smooth to the grain... on here
(Do you need some time to let the lacquer cover)
Look what they did to it ~ And how you will proceed
That fretboard will soon be so fast
Fast as greased lightning.
So get your fine grip sand paper ~ And your gunstock wax yeah
And continue with your plan
(Hello my name is sand man)
Let the paper do the work ~ You ain't even gotta mash down
Just let the paper saaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaanndddddd
(Hello my name is sand man)
That was fun to watch! Was hoping you’d pick it up and play it there at the end 😜
More please! 🖤🖤🖤🖤
Awesome video! Makes me want to buy a cheap used SG and do this. Loved seeing the multiple SGs on stage at the boston show last week, best guitars ever, i love mine
Dope as hell ❤🔥🔥
Thank you Johnny for a very therapeutic tutorial, the look of natural wood simply pops, and for you the feel that is good for you and functionality.......
Do you clean and oil the fret-board ? and does your playing style lean towards high or low frets ?
One day the Johnny Stevens Signature Guitar' .......Gibson or a Rich Meyer ?
btw was that a Hedy Lamarr portrait overlooking the workshop!
Stay Safe as Always ☮🕊☯🧡✨
Good job! Great video bro, your awesome! Can not wait to see you guys live again! Please come back to Knoxville TN again. I traveled 300+ miles for ice cold your & have been to a ton of shows and I can honestly say, nothing like the energy at a Highly Sus show! Can’t wait for new album to drop! Still in love w/ the FiRsT album!
🩵 alien🩶 breaking point💚 I am.
🖕😜🤘
Love It 💜 Plz Continue Making More Video's. Love Hearing Ur Voice As Well Johnny ☺️
That awesome you like to watch Post 10. He is a fellow New Englander like yourself. He makes great content.
Great tutorial! Cool how you left some paint - the "eye of Sauron," haha! Star Wars ASMR section was a bonus! Keep 'em coming & stay creative! 🙌
🤗🤗😘
I thought those two small bottles you picked up were Nutella. “Wtf dude, just buy a big jar…oh, wait. Nm.”
Well done. Can’t wait for the Boston show.
Move over Bob Vila. Welcome to This Old Neck! Wait. No. This Old Wood! Also no. I’m leaving.
I’ve literally always wanted to do this, I’m in the big great state of hell denial, and by that I mean am in Ohio, if you’re ever around or bored- I’m down to meet
And talk and do stuff like this, essentially I have a ton of followers on TikTok, it’s actually not that much. It’s 19,000. I figure we could do some sort of interview or something where we just talk about whatever it is you’re doing and then talk a little bit about Summertime Voodoo
You the mans
One of a kind custom shop just got another custom upgrade, just shot up in value!
Great video dude. I'd love to see more of this kind of stuff from you. Uncle Ben's channel is awesome!
I know it's not primarily for the look but it's beautiful 😍
Love that you are sharing more of your talents via "how to" you tube vids. Well done. Can use some background tunes though. Nothing to crazy, just a dab will do ya.😉🤩
Love your nail polish man. Please make more video's of the other guitars that you refinish. Always down to watch you wax your wood. As always your work speaks for itself!
Johnny, do a show somewhat Close to binghamton ny. A bit ashamed to admit but, I have a bad habbit..and I'd much rather spend money on tickets to see you then blow it on speed or somethin..luv ya boiii..biggie fan..
Thanks Guitar Shop Johnny! I love building guitars and learned most of it on RUclips also.
Nice job. To help strip the initial lacquer or paint off you can use a razor blade 90 degrees to the surface in a scraping motion. It makes it a little quicker and cleaner as long as you remember you’re trying to remove the coating and not actual wood. It also helps to cut down on sanding as well!
Awesome video man. Very relatable. Keep stuff like this coming!
❤️❤️
Dream come true, watching Johnny Stevens stroke.
been playing for a long time and never thought of this. thanks for the information and your music, bro.
Loved the video Johnny. I wish I had the courage to do that to my expensive guitars. Keep the videos coming bro
Love this video... Ellie is such s good dog do pretty.
Cnt wait for u to come bk to Dallas
Man I loved watching this.. One day this gat is gonna sell for stupid money, and I hope I can afford it

What do you play on FORTNITE? I play zero build
DAAMN! Just get more handsome every year I continue to have a crush on you. 👍
This guy might actually have a future as someone's guitar tech.
