My word, that guitar almost nails the Peter Green sound. Incredible for the money. It's such a refreshing change to see a great player like yourself Dave showing what can be done on less expensive guitars.
You could go out for a pint, meet a lass, have a one night stand, get a maccy D's breakfast then perform the walk of shame and that thing would still be sustaining.
Great video Dave, I was smiling all the way through it just sensing how much you were enjoying it yourself. I had a black Vintage until about a year ago, i do miss it. Keep them coming, I love your enthusiasm.
That's a lovely looking & sounding guitar. Proof that in this day and age, you only "need" to buy Gibson if the name on the headstock means that much to you, there's so many reasonably-priced alternatives out there. I own an Edwards (ESP) White LP Custom-style guitar that cost me about £600 at the time, and it is a beauty.
Simply amazing how you played that straight out of box. I just discovered this and ordered one. I will look over the other videos to understand the mods. Thank you Dave.
My wife bought me one of these from my local music shop for Christmas, unreal! Absolutely made up. Love it so much it sounds awesome, can’t put it down and can’t stop looking at it, it sounds mad but playing it makes so happy I could cry. Unbelievable guitar. Love your videos, the most passionate and honest on UA-cam by a country mile. Outstanding playing by the way. Keep it up. Oh and very happy new year
Ordered mine two days ago. By the way i really enjoy your videos, i dont often come back to the same channel twice but you come from the right place and your approach to everything is great, well done and you deserve all the credit you get :)
Hi Dave, great guitar, great sound. I got the Icon version when Vintage first brought them out. It's just nice to hear someone doing justice to this fantastic guitar from Vintage. 👍🏻
+SanAndFe Thank you very much indeed and tanks for watching. :)

I've had a Lemon Drop for several years, but the one with the relicing. But it doesn't have that on the truss rod cover. It's a great guitar, mind and I love it. They really are great guitars, especially for the money.
+Pádraig Floyd ... guess i would skip the " especially for the money"-phrase ... All Wilkinson-Vintage guitars (and a couple of basses) i ever played where good to stunningly good ... Some of 'em are really unique: like the Midge Ure or the Jerry Donahue or the Thomas Blug ...

+Matze R No, had a couple through my hands that were not as great. One was an SG that was better than most, but felt a bit like a cheap copy. Also, the new V (VV60 as opposed to VT60) is not as well put together as the old one and the finish is a bit thick, like a glassy sugar coating.
Very nice to see a Vintage again ... esp. this beauty! Great look and exceptional tones! Great axe, great demo! Curious about the "real demo" (;-)) Thanks for sharing
The Harley Benton SC 450 Plus (LD) is practical the same guitar but with the right knobs and cost 1/3 of the price of the Vintage... or you can buy 3 of them instead of one Vintage!!! Check one out you will be amazed. Notice the binding from the neck to the body it is exactly the same as from the Vintage, can't be coincidence! Other than this I like to say that I like your demos very much, Dave. It is pleasure watching them. I also plan to buy me the same Orange as you have. I was looking for a solid state amp but did not know which one. Most effectpedals sound also better with a solid state amp. Greetings & salutations from the Netherlands, Hans.
Wow. I got my dream less Paul awhile back 2017 standard blueberry burst. Has lots of purple and blue. The les Paul roar, but I like to play ambient music with it as well. With that being said after hearing you play this Les Paul, it sounds and sustains just as nice. Growing up playing Jimi and frusciante styles, I was always a strat person, but EVERYONE SHOULD TRY A PAUL STYLE GUITAR. By the way the flame and back of that guitar is beautiful and vintage looking. Was thinking of changing my silver tuners to those faded ones as well
Beautiful guitar I have one myself, but I'm amazed at the difference. I have the road worn or relic Version which absolutely love. Now apart from it being rolled worn this guitar is totally different in so many ways to mine. For a start yours has green tuning pegs which Peter Green changed for Grovers which are on my Lemon Drop & The body colour is totally different, yours looks like a Gary Moore number one Lespaul with a hint of orange. Where my Lemon Drop and any other Lemon Drop I have ever seen road worn or not, are lemon in colour with a much nicer flame & brighter colour than yours, strange??
Vintage brand play very well. I have two, the Goldtop LP with stock p90s and a honey burst LP with Iron Gears "Blues Engines"..had to rewire the P90s to reduce the wicked hum though...but they are wonderful mid priced guitars
Hi there Dave, Just bought this guitar myself. According to Trevor W, the neck pup is rewired for the out of phase middle position tone, and NOT magnetically reversed. There is some conjecture as to whether the two ways of doing it, give the same results. In your honest opinion, does a rewire accomplish the same result as a magnet flip?
In my opinion the re wire is no different to the magnet flip. They both give a great approximation of Peter's out of phase tone. But. Peters Les Paul was wired out of phase not magnet flipped so its closer historically. :)
Amazing video! Your playing is amazing as always. I love your love for music. You sold me on this video, but being in Canada I had a very limited access to the vintage guitar brand and had to go through Ebay to purchase one and there were only the relic version for sale, but I got a amazing price. Hoping mine sounds close to yours, best wishes to you and happy holidays from Canada. Your "Oh well" section of playing had me rocking.
+Blackaria Thank you very much for your kind words and for watching. Happy to hear you have bought one. There great guitars. Happy holidays to you as well. Have a great one and enjoy your new guitar. :)
Wow! The first unboxing demo of a (budget-ish) Les Paul copy in a long time, that's not one of those Harley Benton things. Should I be congratulating you for not jumping on the bandwagon? So far I've kept myself disciplined enough to stop myself getting one out of pure curiosity. Most of my students can not afford higher end guitars, so I do a lot of research on good quality budget stuff to help them out. Channels like yours are inspiring for research for affordable alternatives. Keep up the good work Dave!
Awesome Dave ... been on the fence about getting one of these non relic Vintage LD's since they first appeared and now with the aid of your very tasteful playing, I'm sold. Care to disclose the guitar outlet source as they obviously have a great batch. Chris.
+66JTM45 I really can't recommend them enough. I got mine directly from Vintage. I'm an endorsee so I contacted them directly to get one. Thank you so much for watching an enjoy your guitar when you get it. :)
i was playing the gary more song through the orange crush 20 2015 just before i pop in your video, what a chance :), by the way, gary was my first legends that strongly inspired me to bend my strings very good.
Nice guitar! I love LP style guitars!. Just one question: how did you get that 13 seconds note sustain @6:26 ? That was crazy! Amp feedback? a hidden-from-view sustainer? or was it bare hand and guitar? I played it several times ´cause I couldn´t believe it.
I bought the epiphone les paul just before Xmas 2016. Didn't get Allen keys with mine. I think that's pants on epiphone part. Even more so the guitar store who sold me it.
I lucikily ramdomly faound a article and video about the Lemon Drop and mine shoud be here the day after tomorrow. Hopefully mine will be as good as yours. Excellent playing-you've got Peter and Gary's stuff nailed. I can't wait to plug it into my 73 Deluxe or Dr. Z. Anxiouly awaiting....
+Dave Simpson It arrived Thursday, nearly in tune just like yours out of the box. I took it to play Thursday night and it stayed perfectly in tune, action was great and it sounds unbelievable! We were blown away by the tone. I agree, it is the best sounding Les Paul I've played and I have 2 Gibson Les Pauls. What a lucky find!
Dave, I know this video is old, but how does it play, mate? It sounds great, but does it feel like a Gibson? Epiphone? Any high frets? I have no vintage dealers around me, so I can get my hands on one, but I am certainly intrigued in them. I play mostly Gibson’s and Epiphones, but I’m always up for alternatives. Thank you for your vids sir!
This one played awesomely but the neck is nothing like a Gibson. Its a lot more Epi. Its a great guitar though. But I would recomend the Revelation RTL59 more. : )
That sustain! Wow! Lovely guitar, Dave. I might just take a look at some Vintage when hunting for a new one this summer. P.s Just started your 'How to play like Peter Green' last week, really eye opening, excellent stuff.
Great how you get these sounds out of cheaper guitars for about 300 pounds sounds great beautiful sustain great playing again dave could you please try and get steve hacketts sound would be nice to hear keep them coming dave great 👍
My niece is having her first guitar lesson soon and was looking at an Ibanez GRGR131. I asked my sister what she would like to play. Classic rock was the reply. I shared this video. 😉
Sold my road worn Lemon Drop after neck break ( it was never the same). Was a nice sounding guitar. Now have a Gibson Les Paul Traditional, which I got cheap because it had a neck break!! It's awesome - now want to learn Green Manalishi - you play it brilliantly. Any chance of you doing a Green Manalishi lesson Dave?
lol guy in bedroom says 'I have played original 52's and this is up there with them'. Thing is. You actually have! lol. A qualified opinion on UA-cam?! MADNESS!
Bought a Vintage V100 Iced Tea from Cash Generator for 135 quid(they wanted 150,but I knocked 'em down a bit lol),pristine condition,I absolutely love it😁🎵
Like your bluesy playing. Which Amp you use? Is it Tube? Great Sustain and Vibrato. Your Guitar is screaming, love it a lot. I am a great Les Paul Fan. And I don't need a Big G on the Headstock
What a great demo, I just missed 1 on Ebay that went for 131 quid, but not to worried as i have the V100 lp wine red which i paid 35 for, & a vrs for 85, & a vh51 for 65 plus a v800n acoustic for 40 quid. They all sound great, but would sound better in your hand's. I just came across your channel , and will certainly be back. (subbed)
No way! I was looking into budget lemon drop LP online last week and only didn't pull it because i really don't need another guitar(do i?). As a father of a 19 and 17 i have to show responsability... You make my live so hard today! Oh Well! Peter Green never had his moments of doubt? I ll buy one for the kids then...
Hey man FANTASTIC demo! Question do you still own this guitar? If so, what are your follow up thoughts on performance and construction after all these years? Thanks!
Lovely guitar dave. Vintage are the best kept secret on the market, i own a v6 a tele and the very guitar you just played...amazing value for money..cheers
congrats man on the blues axe ... thanku for sharing ... Are you playing through the zoom? You must have spent hours tweaking the zoom. That is some sweet tone.
When you held that bend forever it was like wait for it wait for it. I love your videos man after a long 10 hour pissed off day at wotk all want to do is check out some if your videos Then I jam the f out. I got a beautiful orange top chibson the other day looks like it should have been an orange burst but didn't get bursted lol. I replaced the wiring and the pots but i left the pickups that came in it. I love it. Yea it ain't a real gibson but its not really ever gonna leave my bedroom anyway so whatever it looks good and sounds awesome.
Hi Dave, nice guitar! I have a Vintage Afd Paradise and I'm not able to find your tone. What set of equipment were you using on this video? thanks in advance.
Thinking of getting v100 paradise afd. Have you tried one or heard what they are like. Would appreciate your oppinion. Great playing by the way, I can tell you like this guitar
I haven't been able to try one but i hear good things though people say there not as good as the Lemon Drop. I am hoping to get one at some point. Thank you for watching. :)
Yes. Great video & review. And what about that sustain? Haha brilliant. Question - I'm thinking about the V100 Paradise. But the Harley Benton equivalent SC 550 Paradise is nice too. Any experience with either ?
dave hope ur well have u ever seen the photo of peter greeen when hed put black fablon !plastic on the front of his les paul cos he said it look to posh ??? look it up mate great sound thanks:-)
+tenablesolutions Thank you for watching and enjoy your new guitar. I know you will. In this video I was using a Marshall MG 100 HDFX head with my pedal board. Thank you again. :)
That Gary Moore style 'neverending' bend made me ur fan n made me buy this guitar but could only get it in destressed version.. but its just as good But my God ur Guitar skills r insane.. wow.. i wish i could play as u
6:25 "Just listen...the sustain"
"I'm not hearing it?...."
"You would though, if it were playing...its famous for its sustain. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!"
:)
Holy crap!!!!
My word, that guitar almost nails the Peter Green sound. Incredible for the money. It's such a refreshing change to see a great player like yourself Dave showing what can be done on less expensive guitars.

I got this guitar new for £275 so you dont need to even pay £500! Just makes you realised how over priced the "real thing" is.
Simply amazing how you played that straight out of box. I just discovered this and ordered one. I will look over the other videos to understand the mods. Thank you Dave.
6:25 for the craziest sustain you'll ever hear.
would love to hear a full cover of need your love so bad (early in the demo) on this stunning piece of musical sculpture
My wife bought me one of these from my local music shop for Christmas, unreal! Absolutely made up. Love it so much it sounds awesome, can’t put it down and can’t stop looking at it, it sounds mad but playing it makes so happy I could cry. Unbelievable guitar. Love your videos, the most passionate and honest on UA-cam by a country mile. Outstanding playing by the way. Keep it up. Oh and very happy new year

I’m blown away at your playing, do you know how great you sound, just awesome 🎸👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Holy crap!! The sustain on that note at 6:27
Like I said before .,I got one too. But I changed the pegs off with the ones from a casino . Awesome value guitar .
Hi Dave, great guitar, great sound. I got the Icon version when Vintage first brought them out. It's just nice to hear someone doing justice to this fantastic guitar from Vintage. 👍🏻

Such a sweet guitar dude. It sounds great. I'm a big fan of these repros. .I have a v6 icon and a kay 30 black beauty and both are great
Thank you very much. :)
I've just bought this guitar because I watched your video. Great tone by affordable price! Thanks for the video!
Thank you very much for watching. : )
amazing review of lemon drop what where you playing through type of amp effects seriously thinking of getting one
Thank you very much and i was using a Marshall MG 100 HDFX and a marshall Guv'nor 2 plus mainly. :)
These vintage guitars are very special. Very very special!!!! Irrespective of price. I now have three………. And two gibsons.
Very nice to see a Vintage again ... esp. this beauty!
Great look and exceptional tones! Great axe, great demo!
Curious about the "real demo" (;-))
Thanks for sharing
+Matze R Thank you for watching. :)
Very nice guitar. Your vibrato is stellar, sir!
Thank you very very much indeed. :)
Gary like the reflector knobs behind the other ones because the were taller. He worked them alot.
Nice Lemon Drop, and great Peter Green and Gary Moore playing!
Thank you very much. :)
Great review man, I loved Gary Moore playing.
Good job dude
Delightful piece of kit! It's a bit of a weighty unit but I love it.

I have one and they look amazing and sound even better. If it had Gibson on the headstock it would cost many times the price.
Thats one sweet looking and sounding guitar, can't beat a new guitar day!!!! :)
+smiley42 Thank you very much indeed. It is one of the best days. :)

Cracking guitar, really tempted to splash the cash !
Pariseinne Walkways..very cool...love this guitar..i think its my next purchase! SUSTAIN~
Thank you for watching. :)
I have seen a v100 in the flesh and indeed they are absolutely beautiful guitars

im learning guitar with a lemon drop! the neck is so comfortable.even if I buy a Gibson les paul I wouldn't part with the v100.
great playing and great sound!
Thank you very much. :)

brilliant that Dave I've got a ESP edwards les paul made in Japan and it to is up there with gibsons.
Thank you. :)
Edwards are amazing guitars. Got a white "Custom" myself. Awesome guitar!
very nice guitar :D the zoom G2 sounds good, i have the G1 and its very cool
Thank you very much indeed. :)
truly great guitars.
Indeed they are. :)
I have one too....... amazing piece of gear. For me equal with Gibson ( I own one too).
Wow! The first unboxing demo of a (budget-ish) Les Paul copy in a long time, that's not one of those Harley Benton things. Should I be congratulating you for not jumping on the bandwagon?

Thank you and shall do my best. : )
Awesome guitar 🎸 it reminds me of the Firefly LP guitar 🤔🤘
Sounds killer, mind you Dave could reduce grown men to tears with a comb and a piece of paper such is his talent. :-)
Thank you very much. : )
Awesome Dave ... been on the fence about getting one of these non relic Vintage LD's since they first appeared and now with the aid of your very tasteful playing, I'm sold. Care to disclose the guitar outlet source as they obviously have a great batch. Chris.
+66JTM45 I really can't recommend them enough. I got mine directly from Vintage. I'm an endorsee so I contacted them directly to get one. Thank you so much for watching an enjoy your guitar when you get it. :)
Dave, she's a real beut! I have one too but can't play anywhere near as good as you! Keep up the great playing and the great vids.
+Ben Storey I shall do. Thank you so much for watching. :)
6.26 O.....M........G you are awesome, the guitar sounds awesome
+mywave inwoods Thank you very much. :)
i was playing the gary more song through the orange crush 20 2015 just before i pop in your video, what a chance :), by the way, gary was my first legends that strongly inspired me to bend my strings very good.
Awesome, Sir Dave! You deserve it! Nice blues. Thanx.
+Mchael Hron Thank you. :)
Nice guitar! I love LP style guitars!. Just one question: how did you get that 13 seconds note sustain @6:26 ? That was crazy! Amp feedback? a hidden-from-view sustainer? or was it bare hand and guitar? I played it several times ´cause I couldn´t believe it.
+Sabas Gonzalez The Gary Moore long note is just controlled feedback of a chosen note. :)
Awesome! Looking forward to more videos of it
+vvvenno Thank you very much for watching. :)
I bought the epiphone les paul just before Xmas 2016.
Didn't get Allen keys with mine. I think that's pants on epiphone part. Even more so the guitar store who sold me it.
I lucikily ramdomly faound a article and video about the Lemon Drop and mine shoud be here the day after tomorrow. Hopefully mine will be as good as yours. Excellent playing-you've got Peter and Gary's stuff nailed. I can't wait to plug it into my 73 Deluxe or Dr. Z. Anxiouly awaiting....
+devlin0208 Have fun. I know you will. :)
+Dave Simpson It arrived Thursday, nearly in tune just like yours out of the box. I took it to play Thursday night and it stayed perfectly in tune, action was great and it sounds unbelievable!

Insanely good player
Thank you very much indeed. :)
nice playing man just wondering tones wise could you play guns n rose not bother on a guitar like that is it versatile
Thank you very much indeed and you can indeed play G N R with this guitar. :)
Dave Simpson thanks dave much appreciated
I hope you weren't 'relicing' the gift Strat,,,,i guess make it your own if so.
Killer vid for the drop, though. Nailed the PG/GM parts perfectly.
Great Sound - out of the Box
+Nusret Hausic Indoodle .Thank you for watching. :)
Wow it played like that out of the box? What's the model? Where did u buy it? Hard to find these.
It did indeed. I bought it straight from Vintage. :)
Dave, I know this video is old, but how does it play, mate? It sounds great, but does it feel like a Gibson? Epiphone? Any high frets? I have no vintage dealers around me, so I can get my hands on one, but I am certainly intrigued in them. I play mostly Gibson’s and Epiphones, but I’m always up for alternatives. Thank you for your vids sir!
This one played awesomely but the neck is nothing like a Gibson. Its a lot more Epi.
Its a great guitar though.
But I would recomend the Revelation RTL59 more. : )
NAILED the Gary Moore Tone!!! Amazing guitar for the budget! Wow! 😳
im just guessing here...but i think you like that guitar, and possibly peter green too. wicked demo too bud. :)
You would be correct. Thank you very much for watching. :)
wanted it, got it, love it, god bless pg
+William Taylor :)
That sustain! Wow! Lovely guitar, Dave.
I might just take a look at some Vintage when hunting for a new one this summer.
P.s Just started your 'How to play like Peter Green' last week, really eye opening, excellent stuff.
Thank you very very much indeed. :)
Great how you get these sounds out of cheaper guitars for about 300 pounds sounds great beautiful sustain great playing again dave could you please try and get steve hacketts sound would be nice to hear keep them coming dave great 👍
My niece is having her first guitar lesson soon and was looking at an Ibanez GRGR131.
I asked my sister what she would like to play.
Classic rock was the reply.
I shared this video. 😉
Very new, Justin, I'm still plenty of old doors in here. Namastè.
What delay pedal were you using in this video?
Sounds really nice!!!
Line 6 delay modeller. : )
Loved the video Dave and just taken delivery of mine too. Where did you pick up your replacement Amber top hats and what size were the pots? Cheers.
Thank you very much and congratulations on yours. I ordered them online at a shop called axes r us. There just a standard size. :)
+Dave Simpson Thanks for the speedy reply, much appreciated. Just checked them out now, but there's a choice of Alpha (16 spline) or CTS (24 spline).
Sold my road worn Lemon Drop after neck break ( it was never the same). Was a nice sounding guitar. Now have a Gibson Les Paul Traditional, which I got cheap because it had a neck break!! It's awesome - now want to learn Green Manalishi - you play it brilliantly.
Any chance of you doing a Green Manalishi lesson Dave?
I shall get to it at somepoint. :)
Dave Simpson thanks you are a star. I love watching your videos, very inspiring.
lol guy in bedroom says 'I have played original 52's and this is up there with them'. Thing is. You actually have! lol. A qualified opinion on UA-cam?! MADNESS!
Haha. What is the world coming to. :)
Dave Simpson to you of course, stay honest and true and your followers will follow you just like with Mike Bradley
What great guitar player!!!!!!!!
Thank you very much. : )
Bought a Vintage V100 Iced Tea from Cash Generator for 135 quid(they wanted 150,but I knocked 'em down a bit lol),pristine condition,I absolutely love it😁🎵
what do you think of Epiphone Les Pauls??
I love them. I have one and its great but I just don't like it as as much as this one. :)
Like your bluesy playing. Which Amp you use? Is it Tube? Great Sustain and Vibrato. Your Guitar is screaming, love it a lot. I am a great Les Paul Fan. And I don't need a Big G on the Headstock
I have a Harley Benton SC550 and love it. I would marry her😂😂
Thank you very much and I am using a Marshall MG100 HDFX half stack and its solid state. : )
Dave Simpson unbelievable, sounds great for Solid State
Awesome Dave :-) Enjoy these beauty sounds so cool B-)
+jagercaster Thank you very much. :)
What a great demo, I just missed 1 on Ebay that went for 131 quid, but not to worried as i have the V100 lp wine red which i paid 35 for, & a vrs for 85, & a vh51 for 65 plus a v800n acoustic for 40 quid.

I do still own this guitar and still love it. The only problem ive had with it was the pots dying.
Other than that its solid as a rock. :)
Damm i need to pick this kind of guitar, Vintage so sweet
oh my god ,,im in love ,,not with you dave but the sustain on that guitar ,,,feel an urge to go to ebay lol ,,great vid mate you sold me 😁

Lovely guitar dave. Vintage are the best kept secret on the market, i own a v6 a tele and the very guitar you just played...amazing value for money..cheers
+Hugh Caldwell They really are. Thank you for watching. :)
congrats man on the blues axe ... thanku for sharing ... Are you playing through the zoom? You must have spent hours tweaking the zoom. That is some sweet tone.
+playAgainMe Thank you very much. I am playing through the zoom but I'm not using it for distortion. :)
When you held that bend forever it was like wait for it wait for it. I love your videos man after a long 10 hour pissed off day at wotk all want to do is check out some if your videos Then I jam the f out. I got a beautiful orange top chibson the other day looks like it should have been an orange burst but didn't get bursted lol. I replaced the wiring and the pots but i left the pickups that came in it. I love it. Yea it ain't a real gibson but its not really ever gonna leave my bedroom anyway so whatever it looks good and sounds awesome.
Tnx Dave for your reviews for vintage v100 its was my best buy.What a feeling in hands and sound.... Harley Benton is a toy compare to this.Tnx again🤘
Hi Dave, nice guitar! I have a Vintage Afd Paradise and I'm not able to find your tone. What set of equipment were you using on this video? thanks in advance.
Thank you very much. I was using a Marshall MG100 HDFX half stack, line 6 delay modeller, Marshall guv'nor 2 plus and a vox wah pedal. :)
Thinking of getting v100 paradise afd. Have you tried one or heard what they are like. Would appreciate your oppinion. Great playing by the way, I can tell you like this guitar
I haven't been able to try one but i hear good things though people say there not as good as the Lemon Drop. I am hoping to get one at some point. Thank you for watching. :)
Yes. Great video & review. And what about that sustain? Haha brilliant. Question - I'm thinking about the V100 Paradise. But the Harley Benton equivalent SC 550 Paradise is nice too. Any experience with either ?
Thank you very much. :) I haven't had chance to play either i'm afraid so i can't really comment. Sorry. Thank you again for watching. :)
