Already sold on the gold foils but the Art & Lutherie guitars, thanks so much for pointing those out! Been wanting a palour guitar for a while to drag around and after watching this I went and tried one locally and loved it. Probably hate it in a year then never want to put it down in 4. A universal truth of being a player.

Adonde lo puedo comprar el Royal Resonador Coverplate🎸🎸🎸

How much $$$ do you have into that now? Would you build another one? How much would you sell it for?

I wish i could find someone to build one of these for me, i know nothing about how to build these

Lower pressure in the spring door latch

If loose the spring inside the lock, more better to close the door

Yeah, I got my go full pick ups and 1963 on a harmony. Stradone still got the guitar to this day. Sounds great too yeah I like the way they sound now.

cool to see you in the music context! we gotta chat one day!

Hmm . . . I visited you about this time and wanted to go see "Magic's Night with the All Stars" at the LA Forum. I saw it advertised as a fund raiser for Unicef. You said no - bad part of town that you weren't going, but I could use your car keys and a paper map. So I drove the Capri there and bought a ticket on the street - thinking it was an NBA All Star game - I went in, got a program and found my seat. I was a fish out water - one of things was not like the others. As I read the program, I realized it was not Unicef, it was UNCF. It got pretty crazy, in fact a fan punched Mike Tyson in the back of the head and ran. He did not get very far. Several other fights - I left early to beat the crowd and drove back. I can't believe you let me go and take that car - knowing these experiences all about the same time !!!

RIP Ron and Nicole

Great guitar. I recently picked up a pretty clean 125T . Would you mind telling me what bridge you put on yours?

My first real guitar, a 61 es 125t, is an amazing instrument. Still going strong and with the original owner since 61-me!

If it wasn’t dangerous Rangers wouldn’t carry it. Not for the novice shooter

Is the ES-125 same length as the ES-140 ?

👍🏼 for-true, Billy, my top-4 #guitars are: 1. my 1999 ‘working man special’ Martin DM. 2. Penco (Japan) 12-string lawsuit-era Martin copy. 3. Fender/Squier Stratocaster. 4. Fender/Squier Telecaster. #FGibson

The first guitar i ever had was a japenese Teisco, with gold foil pickups. It was terrible, the body was actuallu plywood, and the puckups were weak. I always saw them as cheap alternatives to the heavier wound pickups.

You suck

Fine guitar, I had one

THAT'S THE VERY FIRST GUITAR I HAD!!! A SILVERTONE!!!! With the "Mother of Toilet Seat" Pickguard. Same Clear Knobs too. I think somebody stuck a "Gibson" Truss Rod cover on that, because I had that exact guitar, and it was a Silvertone, from SEARS.

your gibson sounds amazing

Love gold foils - have a couple guitars with them and some extra pickups Glad you are keeping the faith, brother! BTW - I never know what I'm gonna play every time I start - it just happens!

Very cool video. I love the Victory GF. So I ordered one to try out on a new build.

Great idea with much thinner profile. It wouldn't work in the Great Northwest. 90 inches of rain during winter. The slides would rust and cease up in first 6 months. 2 sheets of 3/4" plywood overlap sitting on the rails would stop the leak. I'll be copying the Diamond back bed cover. You can easily make it waterproof and very cheap. Diamond back covers go for 1900 to 2400 plus tax. I can make it for less than 300. Be sure to stain it really good.

BH - Thank you posting/sharing this. Very helpful - cheers!

Thank you. This is a basic guitar skill that none of the other guitar channels cover.

The Algorithm God's sent me to you. Im a fine furniture maker, currently building myself a faithful "reproduction" of a (left handed) Duesenburg Fairytale. Duesenburg sells most of the critical parts. 70° speed pots, pickups, bridges and benders. It'll still cost me about a thousand bucks all in. Liked and subscribed. Great video, lots of resources and rabbit holes to climb down... 🙌

Hey i would like to have an update on this because i am currently doing the same thing on my resonator!

Thanks for this!😄

Hi. Love it. Been needing sometjing like this so bad! I am incspable of building in my head so this is so helpful! Did you say, are tue wioden pieces pallets? Did you ever make an indepth video? Love it either way! Thank you!

Great video Billy Hell! Cheers.

I have a firehawk. It has blueetooth internal. Why the hell would they not put that in the new stuff. Thats the main reason i still have it.

Sometimes you just have to be fearless when it comes to modifying these guitars.. and you, Billy, are certainly that! I currently have my US Acoustasonic Strat on my bench doing a few mods....Seymour Duncan SVR-1n (vintage rail) pup, locking tuners and power pins. Having same issue as you with the pup mounting....will likely end up drilling out the mounting holes, as you did, or go with another pup. Hoping the pup swap will at least knock off a bit of that spanky twang. I really wish Fender/Fishman would have modeled a neck pup tone in addition to the bridge tone. Looking forward to your video on the SD pup. Thanks for the video!

I have too mine has the white face. But now I also have both of the new Highway Series the Dreadnought and Parlor. I took the Parlor and made it a rubber bridge and it's really fun. Not much acoustically but hook up the Fender Acoustic 100 on it with AC33 acoustic creator pedal and Wow! That's the ticket. Good Video bud. Don't ever be embarrassed.

I'm a little late....nice.

$400 per pup. Billy don:t go there.

Great review. Thanks.

ALWAYS enjoy revisiting this little diddy! Awesome, Jim T.!

what kind of amp are you using ? ...a '68 what?

Thanks, this is exactly what I was looking for.

Great vid! thanks. Can these be installed on a 12 fret to the body single cone resonator?

This was nice. Lucky you got to meet Cindy. You were a cutie by the way.

RIP BK !!

12:03 THAT is excellent information.

This is so cool! Does the strap go over your shoulder?

Billy, thanks for the comparison, very helpful. That's been my impression too, but it's good to get a second opinion. I'm about to order the Alvarez AJ80E-12. I've always found 12 strings the most difficult to be happy with...neck profile, nut width, comfort level, the jangle factor, etc. Six strings less so.

Great build. What Amazon sliders did you use?

Echo park makes a killer gold foil pickup

Loved the story about Yoko - lol

And that “ended badly” 😂

"I always run a compressor... sorry if that offends...I'll turn it off" 🤣 The only reason I dont like a compressor is i have 50s wiring on my Supro and the way it cleans up even with all my gain cranked is phenomenal.
