"Well, hey there gang..." I always find myself waiting for that iconic opening line ;)

Though it may feel repetitiveness ad nauseum, we”ll never tire of your narrative/ storytelling, Ted. Automatic thumb’s up on every new video from me. Also, every instrument you work on should have the Woodford badge, as they come back vastly improved. Great work!

I, for one, really like the woody, dry sound of that type of guitar. Many folk players and singers like that tone, as it compliments the voice, instead of trying to override it. Nice job, and a fine guitar.

A Gibson LG-O was the first guitar I learned on, 60 years ago. It got destroyed, and 45 years afterward I bought another one to have my first guitar again. Replaced the plastic bridge with wood. The replacement LG-O is almost perfect.

My father bought me one of these new for $115 (US) in 1964. It’s still my number 1 guitar. Volume-wise, dreadnoughts blow it away, but it has a wonderful, balanced tone. The plastic bridge pulled loose in the mid-1970s, and an excellent local repair man made a duplicate out of walnut.

Lovely work. My sister loaned me her 1966 LG-0 when I was in college in the mid/late 70's. I had a luthier in Memphis replace the bridge and bridge plate (no screws) and replaced the saddle and nut with bone ones. I also upgraded the tuning machines and got a hard shell case for it. It was an unusually loud and resonant example, especially after the mods, and as a lead instrument it was quite punchy even with light gauge strings. Watching this makes me miss having it around to play.

"Not a purulent discharge" was a chortle-inducing phrase!

I really enjoy your style of humor & craftsmanship, it's why I watch every episode. You could be a cooper, he who builds & repairs wine barrels & I'd still watch every episode.

Merci pour ces judicieux tutoriels. Je joue de la guitare depuis 43 ans et j'apprends beaucoup sur la façon dont je peux moi-même améliorer la condition des mes guitares. Merci Mr Ted...always fun to watch you...Andy from Sherbrooke, Québec 😊🎸😊

I never get tired of any of your videos. I learn a little something with every one. You could make them an hour long and that would be fine. Thanks.

This mahogany guitar happens to be the same age as me (born in 1958) so it pleases me to no end that you have given it new life! If only humans came with truss rods for our spines! Thank you for your excellent work!

One of these was my first guitar, in about 1963.

Love it when you were dubbing the bridge against the body... like a steam train crossing the open plain. Never boring - always learns something new Tim - many thanks 😎

My good man, we will never grow tired of seeing the amazing work you perform. Besides, it's not just the work that brings us here... who else uses the word purulent? Nobody. Nobody I say! 😂

I can highly recommend the Dremel flexible shaft extension, makes a world of difference.

It's got such a bright, high-register sound based on what I'm hearing; not a lot of bass to it. That's exactly what I would expect a singer-songwriter/folk artist to use so as not to drown themselves out. And it definitely has a sweeter sound than, say, an Ovation bowl-back that has that thin, high sound and very little bass. Very nice piece.

For 18 minutes, you charmed and soothed me as usual with your voice, your skill, and your knowledge. All was right with the world. And then you hit me with the purulent discharge. You are the MAN.

I might be mistaken here, but I think Dinah Christie used to play one of these little mahogany Gibsons on the charade show “Party Game” back in the late 1970s on good old CHCH-TV in Hamilton. We had a motorized TV antenna on the roof of our house and my brother and I were able to get that station south of the border on a little TV in our attic. (I was lucky growing up in a vicinity where you could get TV from Canada, Mexico and the USA.)
