guys welcome back to the channel so we picked up a tundle long link 1 8 2 epi phone semi hollow 3 3 3 so what we're gonna do today is we're gonna take the guitar apart put some new strings on clean up the frets clean up the fretboard check out the the pickup and then just have a little listen to it at the end stick around if you want to see us pull this thing apart so picked up this tundle long guitar from from my local store there's a video on my on the on the channel about this store showing me going around looking at stuff and actually here's a picture of it hanging up in the store and I walked in and went tundle long like these are so rare they stop making these now these are so rare and the last one I saw was on trockley's guitar show when he was going through them and even these epi phones pull a really high price now because they were discontinued so this one was priced really good so I just grabbed it and it came with a hard case as well so you know double bingo for that one okay so let's get it on the table let's pull it apart and let's see what's inside it so first of all let's check the output of the pickup on this guitar so we have 15.18 15.2 on the pickup so there's a hot pickup so what we do now is we will take the strings off of this and looking at fitting some early ball 10 to 46 is as you can see I'll give the fretboard a bit of a done lot 65 and we'll check inside the pickup and have a look have a look whether or not it says Gibson and I'll inside there so we'll be back in a minute so with the strings off now what I'm going to do is take off the neck plates have a quick look see what is under there see if it's the same as on on the Gibson that I saw on trockley's guitar show look there we go I'm slightly different as you can see it's just a big hole there's no middle piece on the neck and we'll check the a tailpiece which is a epi phone and the bridge which is also epi phone and then we'll take the pickup out and have a look see what we've got under here this is supposed to be the same pickup that's on the Gibson so I'm just wondering if it actually says Gibson on the back or epi phone I'll see I'm hoping it's the same so let's have a look we've got just says 30 fingers pickup 11 29 16 yeah just says um 30 fingers as a number on there and 11 29 29th of the 11 16 okay so some one of the things to to be wary when you're doing the strings on one of these guitars is this matte paint would scratch really easily so just be careful with the ends of your strings so what I'm going to do I'm going to do a fret polish oiled fret board up and then we'll get some new strings on it so yeah you
