I don't think anyone would have the guts to do such daring modifications to a vintage L7 today, but what's done is done - so we might as well enjoy it for what it is! Refinished top? Check Touch ups + repairs galore? You betcha! Nearly perfect playability and unique tone? Also true This episode was a lot of fun! Thank you, Guitar Center, for partnering with my show to help me showcase some very unique guitars. In case you're curious - Guitar Center only asks me to promote their website and my GC affiliate links on their sponsored episodes. They do not get a revision period or tell me what to say. These opinions are my own and not representative of Guitar Center. The only difference between this and a normal episode is GC helped me pay for it! 0:00 - Intro 0:12 - First Look 0:55 - Guitar Center Sponsor 1:27 - Out Of The Case 2:05 - What is a Gibson L7? 4:49 - First Impressions 5:31 - Workbench / Specs 7:27 - Endoscope Cam 10:36 - Workbench Continues 17:22 - Endoscope Cam 17:40 - Workbench Continues 20:41 - Black Light Test 23:07 - Acoustic Test 24:29 - Testing Pickups 25:49 - Clean Tones 29:32 - Dirty Tones 32:31 - Final Thoughts 34:00 - Watch Next 🟢My Website: https://www.troglysguitarshow.com 🔴Reverb: https://tidd.ly/4aFiyhC 🐕 Private Help Sessions: https://troglysguitarshow.com/help-appraisals/ ⚫Amazon: https://amzn.to/3SjrHUx 🔵Patreon Early-Access to New Videos: https://www.patreon.com/c/trogly Affiliate Links are found in this description + comments section - clicking and purchasing items from partners will help financially support the show. ❓Private Help Sessions ➡️ https://troglysguitarshow.com/help-appraisals 💰New to Reverb?
