This is a restoration and repair video of a hollow-body (semi-acoustic) electric guitar that was made in Ukraine in 1976 (then it was a part of the USSR). Briefly about the restoration work I did on this guitar:
Refinishing / Painting
Tuning pegs replacement
Electronics repair
Headstock repair
Making a pickguard
Frets replacement
Deep cleaning and moisturizing of the neck
Bridge replacement
Pickguard cutting
Now in detail. I bought this Lviv guitar for $30. It was in really terrible condition. When I saw this dirty and rusty guitar for the first time, I immediately understood that it needed a complete refinish. As I understood, someone in the nineties modified it badly (as a clue I found an old bus ticket of already independent Ukraine inside). To get to the electronics, the previous "luthier" simply cut off a piece of the guitar and then covered the hole with a piece of plastic. The frets on the neck were almost flat so I had to replace them. The fingerboard on this guitar has almost no radius (yes, it's almost completely flat). I also had to restore the part of the headstock (it was cut with a saw because it was an obstacle for the non-original pegs). I also had to remove rust and old paint from the tailpiece. This guitar had a lot of holes from the previous bridges, pickguards, etc.
Overall, there isn't a spot left on this guitar that I haven't restored.
