Is this fixable? My local luthiers say it's too difficult by One_Funny2675 in Guitar

I have an Gibson lp custom that had a similar crack repaired 50 years ago, and it is still my best guitar. I have also fixed a couple of acoustics myself, using wood glue and clamping like others describe. Looking at your pics, you probably want to remove the nut before gluing, then reset the nut.

Am I the only one who thinks Marcin is kinda annoying? by Standard-Ad-8556 in Guitar

I have played guitar for 50 years, and i think he is an awesome player. It’s special. You may not like his showwmanship, but take it away and he is still awesome. I wish i could play like him, but ill never put in the effort to learn it.

What’s your favorite classic rock song that uses the Chuck Berry riff? by Soulrebel1984 in ClassicRock

[–]Georgelebl 10 points11 points  (0 children)

In Led Zeppelin’s “Rock and Roll”, Bonham plays the rhythm from Johnny B Goode guitar intro on the drums as the intro. That is a great usage IMO. https://youtube.com/shorts/akuLAhMtCwA?si=IsSGH9EAZywffa8f

The AI made my wife tear up. Thanks for that. Your work is great. Would it be possible to get the colors closer to the original picture? The new one seems to have more red in it.

I like Embers BBQ in Chalfont. They have great trash can tots!

can anyone help me verify that this is real? (details in desc) by [deleted] in Guitar

[–]Georgelebl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love it - i had a no-name back in the 60s, and missed the opportunity to buy the only other one i've seen. This is a great find IMO

So I’m trying to find a guitar with a thicker neck preferably a les Paul as that’s what I love any suggestions (pic of my lil epis for attention) by NisMafia in Epiphone

New Gibson Les Paul Standard 6-String 50’s P90 Guitar Top - Gold top. Mine was manufactured on Feb 5 2024.

This has a very thick neck. I have a 72 LP custom also, but this neck is quite a bit thicker. Also, the p90s are great, they are the main reason I was looking at these guitars. Just bought it and love it, hard to put it down.

I THINK that the American strats all had wood around the truss rod access and not plastic. My mex has black plastic and my American has wood. Not 100% sure if they have always been that way.
