Epiphone LP Junior - On The Bench - Project P90 Part 3

Today we’re upgrading the tuners, and adding some black hardwre all around. The pickup is also installed (see the intro for details on how that went) and the guitar will be strung up and tuned.

Video Notes:
This is a bit longer, but I kept in some issues/mistakes that I hope will help someone else who is learning. I’ve provided chapters so you can jump around if you like.

Also - I realize now that my head was in a LOT of shots. I did what I could, but apologies for excessive “chrome dome cam”.
