    So nice to hear a Les Paul - any Les Paul - demoed in a way that actually reveals the character of the instrument, instead of with roaring distortion. Very tasteful playing. Thank you.

      A Les Paul and a good Deluxe Reverb are hard to beat,... the Victoria being a single channel hand wired take on the Deluxe Reverb of course :-) such epic tones... phenomenal rig with a phenomenal player...!! Well done!!

      Picked my ML lightly aged ‘59 up a few weeks ago. What an astonishing instrument. It feels fully played in now and giving out tones exactly like this one (even looks exactly the same - dirty lemon ‘burst). Gibson are most definitely back to the top of their game these days.

    P-90 sounds can remind me of a good PAF Humbucker. There's a bit more clarity and sting than let's say Gibson's 57 Classic Humbuckers, but more noise too.

    After more than 60 years, despite the technique and technology it is not possible to produce guitars with a similar sound. This proves that man, the craftsman always wins over machines and the damned productivity always sought after (and this is an absolute evil) by guitar manufacturers who spend millions on bulls**t like advertising, inclusion, sociality and less in preparation and support of labor.

    • @xvx6663
      @xvx6663 2 місяці тому

      I think it has something to do with the wood they used then to the wood they use now…back then they where using old growth hondurian trees and they where old tress like from 1700-1800s ……the wood they use today is much different….. I bet if they had the wood they used back then, the difference in techniques to build them would change nd be different but the sound would be the same is this 59…. But yeah the wood…..

    I wonder if it was presented as a Chinese replica, how many people would bash it simply because they aren't really listening and saying some guitar is a 1959 LP automatically is going to get likes for it no matter how it sounds. This amp doesn't sound very good to me, sounds like printed circuits. I did a test UA-cam video not that long ago with one of my replica PAF sets in a vintage Elitist LP made by Gibson in JAPAN, and asking people to guess what year vintage 'Burst it was. All of them made guesses what year it was and none of them could tell it wasn't vintage at all. The mythology of vintage Les Pauls runs really deep now. Back in the early 60's they were only worth about $300 and nobody thought they were anything special......until a couple famous players scooped them up, and with their TALENT and the great tube amps of the time, turned them into being worth more than gold. Getting that sound is not impossible at all.
