SLASH kept the Gibson Les Paul cool in a time when most other big name players had moved onto other brands. Yes Slash saved Gibson.
@C.Nash Read some more guitar history... Slash did actually saved an unpopular brand in the late 80s.
No argument
🤦♂️
@2216sammy It's not ridiculous. It's a pretty common sentiment. In an era of super strats, it was pretty notable that people associated the Les Paul with Slash.
@@whataboutthesituation1273 Is that what you drank before posting?
I’ve met slash a few times. Always super nice and friendly. Such a down to earth guy. When your talking to him, he’s just like an old friend. Super interesting and cool guy.
What do you mean by that??
@@crackerinternational I mean like it’s like you’ve know him. He’s just a regular guy and cool dude. It’s like your talking to an old friend that you haven’t seen forever, but when you see eachother it’s like old times. Slash was like that when I met him, just a very cool down to earth guy.
Giving Joe Perry his ‘59 Les Paul back as a birthday present! What a gentleman Slash is.
🤘
what a dope I would have kept it Joe can buy another one
@@buzzedalldrink9131 😂😂😂
After Joe Sold it for Dope and Dissing Shafting Edward Van Halen at the 1978 Texxas Jam , Cotton Bowl Texas... Jealous man ,,,
He didn't give it back, he sold it back.
Slash giving Joe Perry his Les Paul is a great birthday present, no doubt, but there's no gift better than Eddie Van Halen giving up his bumblebee to rest with Dimebag.
EVH gave his Jamaican Rasta to Frank Zappa's Son ,,,Dweezil , after a visit ...sitting in Pieces
@@CP-kb1du And Drunken vomit 🤮
Eddie gave Jerry Cantrell a couple Ernie ball music man’s and amps too
I rather have other guitarist than Eddie.
I mean I’m a bigger Aerosmith fan but no it’s not lol
How many guitar techs does Slash have? i have seen 3 different techs and they all said they have been with him for years and years?
yeah i've seen Doug Redler, Ace Bergman and Adam Day (this man)
@@KeeperOfPoops he is very particular about tone
probably for different kinds of tours and they split, sometimes they work together more than one at the time, he has a looot to cover for
Well Adam day stoped working for him after gnr ended, then there was someone else, and for the conspirators he was with ace who is now with frank sidoris. Adam day did some of the American conspirators tours too but I think there is someone else now
Adam Day is a big time tech and Slash can’t afford to pay him what he gets paid when it’s not GNR, so Adam came back for the GNR tour legs.
Out of all of the videos on Slash's guitars over the decades, we still have nothing on the highly elusive "You Could Be Mine" red BC Rich Mockingbird.
RIGHT!
I know! I was so bummed it wasn't shown
He selled it
@@alonso8314 No, he didn't. ua-cam.com/video/Z64Y-pjZw2E/v-deo.htmlsi=8SqSLqb696wVqr_v&t=1752
It's not "elusive". He talks about it openly and still has it in his collection. ua-cam.com/video/Z64Y-pjZw2E/v-deo.htmlsi=8SqSLqb696wVqr_v&t=1752
Im 14 writing this comment, Slash is one of the main reasons I picked up a guitar and the many reasons Ive kept picking it up, such an inspiration to me which keeps me going and will always keep me going
Been with Slash since 88!!!!
How much has this guy seen?
He should right a book
This book would be a great read. If he were to write a book, I doubt he would be working with Slash ever again.
Slash would kill him afterwards 😂
@@HF1600ie slash couldn't kill a fly!! Total wimp - good guitarist though
@@jimhart11 I guess you're right. He's the kind of guy that musta been a hippie in another life. Peace and love!! Ahaha!
He missed the best years.
I love that he knows the history of the guitar so well. Probably better than Slash himself 🤣
What do you mean?
@@crackerinternational I mean the guy probably knows more about the guitars better than Slash because he’s in charge of maintaining them.
You gotta love Slash! He is so thoughtful and gentil while iconic and cool. I remember hearing Welcome to the Jungle on MTV and saying what the f*** is this and just standing there slack jawed in amazement! It was pure fate that I stopped at my friend's house and saw that video. Guns 'n Roses changed my whole world when I think about Heavy Metal and hard rock. Slash truly is a ripple that changed everything. : ]
Saw them in Honolulu in 2019, the day after I saw the Eagles.
Both had great shows and played 3+ hours each .
GnR blew me away
That 59 Joe Perry Les Paul was purchased by Slash from a vintage guitar shop down the street from me. I think I was about 15-16 at the time. My dad and I knew the owner of the shop and we were there when he was just about to pack it up and ship it to Slash. I picked it up and played all of the G&R songs I knew on it before he packed it. He paid $25k for it, which at the time was a ton of money.
When did Joe sell it ? He must have been hard up for cash way back then and had "other priorities"
@@bigmaxy07 it was in the early 80s when Joe quit Aerosmith. At the height of all their drug use.
Slash said he bought from a pawn shop. Joe pawned it and .. he gave 8000 dollars for it
@@samright4661 Not true. It may have been at a pawn shop at some point but Slash bought it from Dixie Guitars or Atlanta Vintage Guitars (they changed names sometime around then) for $25000
@@fisherfilmworks Wrong I just heard Slash talk about it Yesterday. He said he was on tour in Japan and the seler contacted his Agent about a guitar when he got back to LA he had pics sent to him in the Mail. He paid 8000 Dollar that was in 88 ..
That green B.C. Rich Bich is basically my dream guitar. Friggin' gorgeous 😍
I love seeing these videos of the guitars that the guitar legends are playing!
Slash basically saved gibson,. Gibson and epiphones have more than 40 signature slash models,. Most people have 1 or 2 😂
Right 🤣 cause slash is the best even ppl who don’t like rock like him cause he’s so versatile
Love the awkward silence moments
AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA AWESOME
Still more comfortable than the Edge rig rundown.
that's great
@@ensignofindustry1033 Dallas was a true gent with John in the edge rug down.
yeah, yeah.... yeah um... sure.. yeah uh, no... so yeah.
"He's used to playing different necks..." I love how roadies and guitar techs seem like they're talking about their kids when talking about their rockstar bosses.
I’d honestly probably say their more like friends than boss and employee, I’d think. They’ve known each other for a long-ass time.
Haha I got that feeling too!
That 58 les paul he bought in 1990 was confirmed to be the first burst Gibson built through the serial number and the guitar was sent to several trade shows .
I have watched the full Rundown many times and everytime its very awe inspiring.
Seen these guitars up close and personal..... Got right up close during first Velvet Revolver tour.
They had to use his guitar tech because Slash isn’t real
Yes he is. He played my birthday party when I was a kid. Next you'll tell me that was just my dad...
@Peter Piper Slash isn’t real, he was made up, he’s based off of a dutch saint named vunterslaush. But people dress like him to entertain the kids.
@Peter Piper it's a South Park reference. Great episode.
@Peter Piper no prob! Check it out when you have time. It's a pretty good episode, but the running gag of Slash as a sort of mythical Santa Clause figure is ace.
@Peter Piper "Crack Baby Athletic Commission" lol
Awesome episode! My guy is one of the BEST interviewers right now! All the right questions. Super enthusiastic. A master x
The new iteration of Slash playing with Myles Kennedy and the new band is so much better than GnR. Slash is playing better. Brent Fitz kills it. And Myles shows up on time and doesn't have child like fits on stage. Far superior.
Axl doesn’t have child like fits on stage anymore, he just has a Mikey mouse voice 😉
John Bohlinger is the best interviewer out there, good questions, gives great encouragement and enough space for answers.
Was just going to comment on that. He doesn't cut off the person he's interviewing, and if he comments he adds to what the person is saying.
Once Slash goes that guitar will be one of the most fam,ous guitars in Rock history! Made me fall in love with Les Paul's as a kid!
funny how Gibson copies a Gibson copy. then reissues the copy of the copy.
Could you elaborate
@@moddingmatrix2791 To make it short.
Les Paul used by Slash in AFD album was actually a replica (apparently a very nice one) made by an independent luthier. Slash back then was poor and couldn't afford an LP so the band manager bought (rented?) it for him and Slash liked it a lot. So when Gibson made an official reissue of AFD LP they basically copied a copy of their own model. I got this from youtube comment section though so there might be some minor differences. But the fact that the LP used by Slash for AFD wasn't an authentic Gibson LP, but a replica, a fake (read: well-made) les paul.
@@moddingmatrix2791 Damn the tech actually talked about it on 03:16 haha
@@moddingmatrix2791 the Chris derrick les Paul copy which is slash's no.1 guitar was copied by Gibson later in his career. so Gibson copied a Gibson copy.
@@iganpparamarta8813 do you actually know that a well-made replica by a well-known custom luthier is actually MORE expensive than a regular factory-made Gibson Les paul standard? And Derrig's replica was one those custom made instrument. Slash got it not because of not having enough money, he was just unhappy with the sound of "true" Gibsons
The interviewer stands like he wants us to see his belly button.
He’s cringe af
@@GuitarSpotTV facts
@@haywoodjablowme699 🤣🤣 "Alllllrighty thennnn!" haha, so true
@@haywoodjablowme699 I kinda thought the same. Loyd and Harry. D.&D..
@@GuitarSpotTV I guess to a degree, but its at least watchable. But he does give off that boomer at show vibe. "you remember when they played here in 81, rockin set" no pops i wasnt even close to born yet...
One of my favorite guitarists. I would love to play any of his LP’s for an hour!
You should try a CD ‘cos the 12” LP records only last 20 minutes or so on each side... ahem!
Something special about the 1.14 pick on 11-48 strung Les Paul, the power and clarity that come through your hands, Slash knows how to get tone from his hands
i grew up playing vlolin... so i kind of understand the acoustic science of string instruments ...
however, as someone dumb to the electric guitar space... its crazy to learn that the wood makes that much a difference for an electric guitar.
I dont know why i find the interviewer coming from American Pie High School corridor "WOW THATS COOL" during those silence lol. Always nice to hear Adam!
......Greetings Adam!!! Larry L here in Sacramento. Always good to see you doing what you do best. Take care...
Kris Derrig was a flipping genius. Funny thing is, he wasn't a professional luthier. He was mainly a tinkerer who built guitars on the side. He was, however, very good at it. Tragic loss when he died so young.
So sad that he passed away before he could see his creation becoming one of the most famous guitars of all time and ironically saving Gibson itself in the late 80s
I know he built those guitars to fund restoring a Pontiac GTO. If he'd lived on, he could've charged so much for his guitars that he could've had a whole fleet of GTOs!
Slash's guitar tech, Tom Petty's long lost brother or both? 🤷
I was thinking Gene Wilder.
PG really needs to get back to getting more details about artist’s setups. Strings, pickup heights, fret wire, action, etc. Gear nerds are the ones that watch these videos the most, and we want details
Slash did take Joe Perry’s guitar on tour . I have pictures of Slash in concert playing the 59 tobacco burst . Plus he plays it in the music video November Rain . If that’s the song he plays in front of the little church . Look close and you can see the worn paint down to the wood on one of the knobs .
That first guitar has a lot of wear, and here I'm feeling bad that I got a scratch on my guitar....lol
Scratches, dings, wear and tear gives a guitar character in my opinion. It tells a story, it shows it's been used. I'd pick up a beat up guitar any day (Granted it plays well) over any brand new shiny sparkling guitar. :)
Yeah when you can have basically any guitar you want, you wouldn't mind it either.
Adam is one of the greats!! "He snapped the neck right in half and the headstock smacked him right in the face... *Loud Laugh*"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Been waiting for this since I subscribed 2 years ago
Excellent interview
3:06 A genuine Gibson replica of a guitar that is a replica of a Gibson. Wow.
Looks like he keeps the pickups flat to the surround. I did this lately and I think it sounds great.
It's hard to tell by looking at it. A Gibson USA LP will look like the pickups are higher because the surrounds are shorter compared to the historically correct surrounds that are on a Gibson Custom Shop LP. In other words, more of the pickup is exposed above the surround on a Gibson USA and less is exposed on a Custom Shop, but the actual pickup height could be the same or nearly the same.
I think that double neck has been modified I remember seeing it with shiny covered humbuckers on the UYI tour but it had the SD Alnico II’s by the Freddie Mercury gig at Wembley in 1992.
The presenter need to push his shoulders back further
Slash’s guitars have a magnetic effect on boobs.
He stands like he's holding in a shit.
I love timothy olphant!
No, that’s Josh Duhamel.
@@goodgriefitssimon Bastard child lol
Dude got that shirt in EXTRA medium
A couple years ago, Kirk Hammett bought a '59 les Paul that was owned by Peter Green and Gary Moore for 2 million dollars. Can you imagine how much a '59 les Paul owned by Slash and Joe Perry would sell for today?
about 500.00
Who told you 2 million 😂.
@@lustycourtier2425 There are reports that the guitar was selling for 2 mil at the time, but you're right it's not confirmed that's how much Hammett ended up paying, and probably worked out a deal. Either way I'm sure it was an exorbitant amount of money
Interesting... But we have already seen this, right?
Always great to see again, LOL
We're going back through our Rig Rundowns and picking out our favorite clips and reposting them. Some people aren't keen on watching a 30-minute video, but a more digestible snippet on a certain topic brings a bigger audience, and in result, hopefully engages with them enough that they check out the full video. (Full transparency: we got the idea from JRE Clips - Joe Rogan's subsidiary channel - and others that re-use their content to engage new/bigger audience.) Thanks for your feedback and support ... YOU make this channel a success.
@@premierguitar
Got it.
I think this idea can really improve your audience.
PG always doing a great job for us, musicians.
Thanks, and keep the great work.
👍🏻
Hahah I know the guy interview long him. John Bolinger. He lives here in Nashville and we’ve played together. Great guy. Great player
The interviewer Jesus frickedy. "Yeah bro like frickin rad broski MC bro bro"🤙 guy was hilarious.
Slash and Eddie are both tied for number one in my book!!
Noone else noticed the "NIN" logo painted on the roadbox in the back?
To have tech like this man for so long is true blessing i guess
The top looks like a 3-piece wood. Or are they the 'wings'? Assuming this model is a neck thru guitar?
When interviewers don't actually know how to engage in a conversation so they say shit like "wow man", "that is so great" and "very cool" all the god damn time.
They just send this poor guy that doesn t know anything about guitars and amps... He could ask lot more but he was stuck with wow! ... Man! .... Ecc ecc
I actually like him but he isn’t very good at it
@@leonardos9632 the guy you claim knows nothing about guitars and amps is an accomplished musician who actually knows gear very well. That being said is interview skills are sometimes lacking.
@@disprogreavette8545 the fact that you are a musician doesn t mean that you know your gear... See interview of bettencourt talking about his guitar and rig... And he s a monster... It is what it is, the guy here was the typical woooow maaaan that's radically maaaan, come on
@@disprogreavette8545 He's an exellent player.
This is teh coolest guitar tech ever
This guy from PG constantly stands like he was bummed the night before
Just imagine the price of the first guitar when Slash ends his career
I can only imagine what that would sell for.
The double neck still has the original Gibson patent number pickups . Gibson built a custom shop signature replica of the double neck and slash actually said he thinks the replica actually sounds better then the original
Waited forever for this video
0:56 when a cheap guitar snaps at the neck (which it doesn't) then it's shit. When Gibson snaps at the neck is totally fine and legendary.
Nothing against the tech but why would you not do this with Slash?
An awful lot of these rig rundowns are done with the tech instead of the actual guitarist. To be fair though, techs tend to know more about the guitarists gear than the actual guitarist!
The Gibson Les Paul guitar is a very iconic a lot of rockers have used this guitar and thanks to slash he really did save Gibson from going under and the schools need music keeps them out of trouble and slash he.really seems.like a down to earth guy no huge ego like Nikki six.guys like that are very rare in rock rock on mates and up the irons!!!maiden manic🎸🎸🤟🤟🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🤘🤘🤘🤘
Some of that made sense.
Curious why he doesn't overwrap the strings on the tailpiece .. must have a reason, just wondering..
Just because, me thinks.
Because that makes the break angle even worse.
@@johnwest6083 that's true. We may never know the real answer.
@@johnwest6083 I think he meant top wrapping for a lot less break angle, like jimmy page use to do.
@@benjamins9121 Exactly
Can’t believe he hasn’t destroyed his shoulder over the years playing with such a thin strap. Saw him last sunday in Fl, Slash was amazing.
The double neck still has the original mid 60s Gibson Patent sticker pickups
It is true that pups sounds weak at low volume so that wont squeal at high volume stage playing?
id love seeing a documentary with the guitar techs like this guy (i dont know what his name is), dallas schoo (the tech from edge), and others... itd be really cool!
btw just noticed this same interviewer interviewed dallas schoo :)
0:55
_snapped the neck in a half, the headstock hit him in the face
_ahahahaaha that is great!
Would have loved to know what the songs were he used the 59 on
why is this dated Jan 25, 2021??? i’ve watched this same video several times last year under Rig Rundown, came with Duff and Richard’s rigs as well..

@@premierguitar Fair enough guys, everyone still has to eat. Stay safe
the standard 1987 is Legend!!!
Does he use 50's style wiring harnesses in his LP's, or does he use the modern style wiring harness?
11s are perfect to play when you’re tuned down a half step. 10s for me don’t feel right tuned down.
The black double guitar was also used during the Freddie Mercury tribute concert at the old Wembley Stadium for the GNR set where they played Knockin' On Heaven's Door. One of the most iconic concerts of all time.
Snapped the neck and the headstock came to hit I’m in the face😂
The moment 2:57 “Well let’s look at ehm.. eh “ is priceless. Props for the light engineer. 💡
That first LP has a pretty bad neck crack, better let me take it and get a new one
What’s up with the Nine Inch Nails road case in the back? This is years & years post-Robin Finck
Makes me wanna give my non-gibson single-cut silverburst some love! Still don't know what it is.... Does make the right noises though, so, it'll do me. If anyone wants a crack at finding out what mine is, have a look on me channel. I still don't know. Set neck, mahogany body & neck with maybe maple cap, rosewood fretboard, no volute, proper LP thickness and weight, crooked trapezoid fret-markers like on 70's Ibanez (mine is not THAT old), a proper silverburst finish that is going lovely and green. The lower horn is blunt and terminates short in the manner of a Gretsch, the headstock is also the 70's Ibanez shape for guitars like this. No logo on headstock, japanese pencil-marks inside the routs, short-tenon, clean routs, good form & fit. features on a couple of my latest videos. Big love to y'all, stay healthy in the madness!
Vintage les grattes de Slash !
elles ont du vécu !!
I always take the covers off my pickups. Not for sound, I just hate the way they look lol
Please do a Rig Rundown on The Scorpions
Gifting a 59, what a bro
The Joe Perry les paul 59 was stolen from perry and when Salah first bought it he did not know it was actually perry's 59
Slash know that is Joe perry's
But how does it sound “sonically?”
Who built the Bitch? I bet it was Ed Roman’s shop, World Class Guitars in Vegas. Had to be or Bernie Rico jr. Himself. Who knows but it’s a beautiful guitar.
So Slash doesn't use hid Seymour Duncan Alnico signature pickups
Love from Mexico
That's great!
You want a guitar influence, Joe Perry ain't a bad way to go.
Slash's Victoria Goldtop Les Paul wasn't included
He's not into Cherry Bursts. He sent it back so that they could make it look more like his normal guitars. Broken necks are a Gibson trademark. If you break the neck on another brand, not likely, Mark Greasy will show up at your house in a filthy t-shirt, leather jacket, and 5 O'clock shadow with a lawsuit subpoena.
8:51 a curly maple what now?! 😳
Most people mispronounce ALNICO. It's not AL KNEE CO.
What kind of string gauge did he use to snap the neck while doing Hendrix bends?? I have a Gibson Les Paul, I do not want this happening on mine. Anyone else had this experience with theirs? 😅
He was pushing on the headstock and bending the neck to get fake whammy bar dives, not regular string bends on the fingerboard. The headstock angle on Gibsons is pretty fragile, and Slash did that enough times to weaken other parts of the neck too.
Interviewer is so stoked and impressed. Love it.
"This guy is a BC Rich bitch" *laughter in the backround*
If these guitars ever went to auction I wonder what they would go for? I my view on double necks are just a status symbol saying you really made it other than that there just a heavy awkward guitar. I don't know how Steve Vai plays those multi neck gimmick guitars he has? it would be nice to own a Les Paul to me that says Rock n Roll!!
