😱Wow that sounds outstanding unplugged! Real strong and loud with a lot of ring to the overtones! No doubt a great guitar! My 2018 Historic R9 purchase was based on those elements but i.had to try many to find the one! would loved to have been able to try/get a Bartlett!👍
As I mentioned in the description, these are the ReWind PAF ones. That’s what they were called at the time anyway. I believe I sold the guitar with them and now I have the ReWind cream Brulé PAFs. Couldn’t tell you which set I liked better because I didn’t have the others still here to compare but both sound great!
An outstanding guitar. Tom does great work. Hey, are you the EdA that my father--Dave Warren--was in contact with about 15 years ago on the lespaul forum?
Hi David, sorry just seeing this now many months later.... Yes I am that Ed A and yeah your father was a great guy and he came down to one of our rehearsals once too!... was sorry to hear of his passing :(
@@EdA1 I have one and I love it as much as the Super Champ. Tried different speakers in it. The best one I found is an early 1980's Celestion G12-70. It sounds superior in my amp (go figure I think it just marries totally with the mids of this amp).
@@Stockholm.sweden i’m constantly changing speakers in every amp I own but with the deluxe I never use it for gigging only low volume practice, and I have found that my favorite is still the blue label stock speaker.
@@EdA1 cool. I like that speaker too. It is similar to the Celestion. Great recording amp! I sent some stuff out to a friend and he thought I was playing a JCM 800. 🙂
Wow. I'm blown away, this sounds spectacular. And awesome playing man! I checked into the Bartlett site and found the custom section. How much did they charge to build this particular one?
@@EdA1 thanks man. That’s not unrealistic for this build quality and attention to detail, and I’d sure as hell rather pay around 10k than 250k for the genuine article lol! I’ll definitely be looking into this!
cobowe... if I’m not using vintage centralabs I like DiMarzio branded CTS custom taper… They are very easy turning and have a nice slow roll up like vintage Centralabs
a Serious question: your 2016 replica was a lot alike this one, few flames on the top, all the good vintage apointment, nice tone, why did you order another one with the same profile?? did you sell the other one? how do they compare?
TheMicAmused... I did sell that one. That was a great guitar but ultimately a honeyburst is not my first choice. But then of course a couple years later I wanted one again LOL! But now I have another deep big flame cherryburst and with the current economic situation I’m actually going to move this one that’s in this video which is an absolutely great guitar. I have not put it up for sale yet…
havent put it up for sale yet, but just posted an new video mentioning that I need to sell it to pay for a vintage '59 Special I bought.... ua-cam.com/video/APa658Xqbcg/v-deo.html
oh hey, your strings are actually centered on the fretboard, lucky you. I bought a Retrospec MK2 for $8400 CAD and it was an absolute, complete disaster.
Sure thing. He’s near Toronto. Best thing to do is to go to Bartlett Guitar’s website and there’s a contact info there. You can tell him that you saw a replica video from Ed from New York.
I just uploaded my 1957 Les Paul Replica I made 13 yrs ago on here just type "1957 Les Paul Replica Fail" . Would love to hear what you think I am working on a 59 lp still waiting on parts cheers from Salt Lake City!
William.... His current waiting list is about a year and a half… Because of the current economic situation I will be selling this one in the video. I have not put it up for sale yet… And I will take less than what he is getting for them, it’s an awesome guitar!… Email me at eda@optonline.net if interested.

Wow, that does sound Amazing. I have read about Tom before, but this is the first I have seen of his work. Pretty impressive.
Your tone and playing is amazing!
Lovely guitar, great demo....definitely has ‘that 59 LP sound’. Merry Christmas from Calgary Canada, Ed.
What an amazing beautiful guitar!! That looks more authentic than Gibsons!!
When a guitarist tells you "at low volume", don´t believe him, ever ... ahahah ... great replica !!!
Amazing build! Can you do a video on the Fender Deluxe 2 please?
Amazing. Wow.
It really has that 59 sound. The way that R9s don't seem to be able to replicate
In the R series the pickups are the problem modern Gibson pickups just don't cut it. But a set of Montys PAFs or Wizz PAFs will sort that out.
Which of the Rewind PAFs are these? II, IV etc.? Are you still liking those pickups? Thanks. Also, what string brand and guage do you use?
As I mentioned in the description, these are the ReWind PAF ones. That’s what they were called at the time anyway. I believe I sold the guitar with them and now I have the ReWind cream Brulé PAFs.

What’s crazy to say.. I’ve been watching 59’ videos so long I swear.. I
I'm not going to lie , but my Harley Benton lemon drop sounds exactly like this !
Lmao
Fine sounding plank there son!
What's a roundabout price? I'm highly impressed with this, the tones are incredible!!
Don’t quote me on this but about 10K with a year or two wait.

Fender "Rivera era" Deluxe Reverb II ! Fantastic, underrated amps. Do you have a pedal, or is it amp gain?
No pedals!

Thanks! The price last year was $9800… But you would have to contact them directly for pricing.

the ideal les paul (besides the original artefacts of course) , where did you buy it from? i cant find them anywhere
Direct from Tom Bartlett. You can contact him at bartlettguitars.com

Nice Paul
Which pots were used?
Cheers

That thing sounds acoustic wowza this guys Canadian?
Yes Bartlett Guitars. Great work.
Ok I’m Canada that is the most authentic 59 replica I have seen way better then Gibson.
Give him a shout. They’re not cheap but well worth it and he’s got a couple available right now.
@@EdA1 Thanks Ed, can he be contacted via phone? Also what province is he in?
Sure thing. He’s near Toronto. Best thing to do is to go to Bartlett Guitar’s website and there’s a contact info there. You can tell him that you saw a replica video from Ed from New York.
How do i get one?
Jimi Oconnor.... email me at eda@optonline.net and I can get you info.

Lol....saw title and was thinking it was a replica of Bill Bartlett LP from Black Betty fame...
Can Bartlett make me a replica if I call them?

Buy a Collins City Limits with these pickups and 50's style electronics and Bumble Bee Lux caps, with Rewind Electric style 59's.
Still doesn't say Gibson on the headstock. People are paying up for mystique.
