Great demo Lemmo , and nice intro to the guitar , still need a little more time on the specs tho , wood composition , the pick ups , history , etc. but you're doin a great job , so relax have fun, play guitar.

  • @thesmith1526

    Hi Lemmo,
    I’ve been loving GOTD.
    Got some homework for you though my man.
    Take a Les Paul home and get to know all the amazing things all four knobs do. The versatility of the LP is massively underrated. It took me a very long time to understand just how important all the subtle variations and settings of those knobs could make that guitar work for any style of music.
    You mentioned you hadn’t really spent a lot of time with a LP. If you can seriously put some time aside to really get to know one then it will be another massive asset to your already fantastic playing.
    Also on another note, you could also look up a bit of history about the end of the Norlin era and the changes back to more traditional design that these ‘80’s LP’s had.
    Things like the death of pancake bodies, the volute and the three ply maple neck are all really important reasons why the guitar you just played is starting to be known as “good wood” and the start of the second golden age at Gibson.
    Hopefully you read this and take it in the spirit is was written.
    You’re doing a great job and your personality shines through. Keep on keeping on mate and give the LP a chance to grow on you.
    Byeeeeeeeee

    Michael, I’ve got one bit of advice (certainly not meant as a criticism, hopefully that is clear, because you’re doing awesome). If you listen to yourself talk on video you may notice you say “uh” and “umm” a lot when you’re pausing to think about what to say next. It’s very common in public speaking…and really distracting. I always clicked a pen, so we all have a nervous little tick we need to be aware of. That’s just something to consider as you get more stick-time on the show, but seriously, you’re really getting into a good stride with these shows. I appreciate that you’re continuing to educate a bit with music history or lore surrounding each instrument and I know that takes time, effort, so thanks buddy. Cheers!

    I have that exact guitar. I bought it in Dec. 88. Still have it. Technically the color is ebony. No biggie. One thing of note is in 88 the stock pickups were the Bill Lawrence HB's. Gibson only used them in 88. They weren't received well. Apparently some early 89s had them as well. I love them. I think they sound great. Lot of guys didn't. I think it's more because they aren't the traditional style pickups rather than them not sounding good. Anyway doing a real good job Mike. Keep it up!

    No criticisms, you aredoing a good job.
    ...It did make me realize just how big a shoes you've had to fill. Mark Agnesi brought so much life and verve to the presentations. He would just drool - in a good way - over each one, and each of their unique features... And we, the audience, could lust vicariously over these top shelf instruments. We could all channel our inner 12yr old and just go, "This is totally radical, dude!! Rock on!!! "
    But yeah, full support to you, new guy. You must have impressive credentials, cos there would have been a frenzy of weird n wonderful RocknRollers and experts to compete with.
    So I guess that'd be my only suggestion : don't be afraid to drool. That's why we tune in - to drool over these exquisite pieces - and you're basically our eyes n ears (and fingers)
    Good job bro. Looking forward to some offbeat pieces. I mean I do love strats and les pauls (in fact, they are my only two guitars - so literally my number 1 & 2 guitars of choice. But they can become a bit same-same. The odd firebird, that Dan electro...and e'en that bc rich bich , that ibanez.... Yeah there have been some phenomenal interesting pieces you don't see everyday, lately Oh and that double neck strat! ....
