Hi, Alonessage from CoilsBootic here and THIS is a red special and it's very special indeed. It has special pickups, special electronics with lots of special switches, special shape, special color. And it was invented by undoubtedly one of the most special and interesting guitars of all time, the astrophysicist known as Brian May. Who happens to be in a spare time with the guitars of the legendary band Queen? The most special thing about this specific guitar is the awesome authentic Brian May signature. As you can see some of the writing on this guitar started to wear off by everyday use. Our job is to preserve this signature and make sure it will stay on for the next millennia. In order to do so we decided to spray this guitar with lacquer for a super high gloss finish. However we do not know how the color from this specific pen will react to the new lacquer. So our customer Alex sent the email to Dr. May asking for the exact market type for us to test and check for if we make a mistake and ruin this signature we will surely die by suicide. This is the exact same sharpie model used on this guitar. Now we'll make a simple test and if all goes well we'll strip the guitar and start spraying this remarkable piece of engineering. Ok we got this piece of wood here, it was already sprayed with lacquer long ago and we're going to check the metallic sharpie on it and we let it sit for a while, let it dry and we'll put on some lacquer on it and see how it goes. Ok this is day 2 of our preservation journey for the Brian May signature, it's daylight and we put this piece of wood overnight to dry with a new lacquer as you can see this is totally dry and perfect. So the test was complete success and now we're going to go to the next step. Ok now this guitar is completely covered, there's absolutely no spot available for lacquer to go in except for going to the top and tomorrow we'll clean it up and it's ready for a first coat. We have only one chance to do this right. I am so relieved to get this over with, this is just the first coat but the signature is safe. Now we have to let it dry, put on a coat or two maybe and onto the finishing process. Two days have passed since the second coat of lacquer and it's time to finish. We're finished with this process of this guitar and it is absolutely stunning. Now putting everything back together and set up and then we can play it and show you the end result. Starting the assembly this is the electronics of this guitar, it has on and off switch for every pickup and an outcome phase switch for every pickup. Makes many possibilities or sound, we're soon going to hear it playing. That's my favorite part.
