Moving the strap button on a Gibson ES-339

Описание к видео Moving the strap button on a Gibson ES-339

I was considering moving the strap button on my semi-hollow Gibson ES-339 Studio, and could not find a lot of information about it, so I documented the process - maybe it will help someone out! A similar approach might work for other semi-hollow guitars like the ES-335, or even hollow body guitars, but your mileage may vary!

Idea of using expoxy inside the guitar: Tree Guitarworks ( http://www.treeguitarworks.com/strap-butto... )

One thing not shown in the video: I should have taped the surface of the guitar before injecting the expoxy - at some point near the end the little tube came off and I ended up with expoxy on the outside of the guitar - not good. With some quick cleaning and later polishing it now looks like it never happened, but I could have done without the extra excitement.
