2:40 my bro reached for a whammy bar😭
Brooooo 😂😂😂 caught lmao
11:28 as well.
😭
Yeah he totally did! 🤣
Exposed. Caught in 4k. We'll never see him the same way again 😂
!I really love your playing in this video brother!
For the tuning issues, try a String Butler. It basically is a truss rod cover replacement with rollers attached that creates straight string pull. I have one on my Les Paul an SG, big difference.
Cool video. Subbed. I was secretly hoping to get a tuxedo Custom for my 60th birthday a few weeks ago from my wife, but instead she got me a Gretsch Paisley Black Penguin, which is possibly even better. I still want a Custom though. Next purchase.
I have an OG Special, before they introduced the II, and made the special wrap around. So mine has the Tune-O-Matic and Stop tail piece. Mine also has GFS Big Mouth and Loud Mouth pickups, coil tapped, and is completely customized in a skull theme. I've had it for nearly 20 years now.
28:45 SAME REACTION! :D Love it
That Love Rock is really cool. I have a Fujigen built Japanese Epiphone Les Paul with the open book headstock and its SO good.
I have three made in Japan Orville by Gibson Les Paul's and they all stay in tune. Proper cut nut, bridge and good tuners and you are in business.
Very nice playing! Oh yeah, and I like the Custom best :)
A professional guitar player can make the cheapest guitar sound good while an amateur playing an expensive pro guitar will always sound horrible.. Its the player / technique that counts. Practice, practice, practice.
trueee
Professional players buy high end guitar's for a reason never the less
Thing about that it's not only technique it's the ability to dial in an amp well
Buy what you like and what inspires you to play.
@@ComicsAreEscapism agreed
Damn, a review guy that can properly shred!
12:04 wasn't expecting that
I really enjoy playing my 2022 Firefly Les Paul in Kawasaki green. Low action, sounds great.
Used to have a les Paul studio and loved it
That's my main guitar right now. I did change the tuners and a graphite nut. I might change the electronics and pickups at some point but it's way better than anything I had as a kid in the 70s and early 80s. I highly recommend the Studio model.
This exactly Epiphone VE with this cherry worn color was my first guitar and i sold her before 2-3 years. Nice guitar with slim neck, lightweight body and nice sound
I have an older LP Special with the Tune-O-Matic bridge and the toggle switch on the top. I've had it for over 10 years, and it's still my go-to guitar. I like its simplicity, but it's still considered a "Les Paul". Many memories and gigs with that guitar. I'll give it to my nephew if he'd get off his butt and get serious about playing. Otherwise, I may get buried with it LOL. Are you playing thru that Orange? I was looking into one, but not sure yet.
If you're looking for tuning stability, have you looked into the String Butler? I've been looking at them, but not sure how legit they are.
I have a Tokai MIJ LP and it gets used more than my 78' Gibson Custom. I just purchased a Tokai Premium SG. I'll have it next week. I tried several Gibson SG's and for 2 grand pretty lackluster. For hundreds less Tokai offers their top line and considering I love their mid level LR's, I am confident the SG will be fantastic.
Crazy dude! So what if i put ny wildkat rpiphonr bigsbey, in ny les paul epiphone gold top.... Would i be able to put the bridge jn the wildkat and yeah 🎉great vid im pumped
The Epi special was my first ever electric
I love it, but you left out like, 5 or 6 different low and mid-range Les Pauls including Juniors, Specials, Moderns and Tributes, most with their own unique attributes
No love for the Studio?
I was gonna say
Les Paul Custom (‘68 reissue) for the big shows and Chibson for dive bar gigs 👋
I recently got a gibson les paul custom in hot pink, never getting rid of it 💅
Do you have a spotify account with your music?
At level one I spected a Les Paul SL
The $2,000 Gibson Standard SG's and LP's have tuning problems. My 78' Custom has tuning issues. I replaced vintage hardware to give it better tuning stability because onstage, tuning stability becomes necessary.
19:55 that's the School of Rock credits track
The sound difference is small but what can’t be conveyed through a video is the feel. That’s what you pay more for imo. Quality feel comes from quality components. Stainless steel frets and what not.
Ever think about ordering the Bullfight LP style off of Amazon? I'm thinking about buying one since they are cheap and my check barely is able to afford a high end guitar like Gibson
I’d save up for it, it’ll be worth it
stretch your strings they stay in tune fine. always tune upwards too.
What if you stretch your strings while tuning downwards?
@@BryanClark-gk6ie if its a bit sharp and u tugg to pitch it will hold. Anytime u tune downwards and bend almost any guitar will go out of tune.
@@Siggy_Sour
That's what I'm saying.
You MUST own or at least try an early Les Paul classic 1991-early 1993. They feel and sound super special.
the Epi Les Paul 59 is the best bang for your buck LP style guitar
No it's Tokai. They are insanely good. I prefer my LC290S over Gibson Custom Shops that I've played.
@wind016 the pick ups in the tokais aren't as good as the epi 59, and you can get a 59 used for the same price as the tokai love rock
@@sydguitar99 Tokais vary in price range from sub-$1k to over $2k. My Tokai was at the top of tier and I felt it sounded way better than Gibson USA Standards and about on par or better than $7k Gibson Custom Shops. Maybe the Epis are better than the sub-$1k Tokais, but I don't really have experience with those. For my Tokai in particular, the sound, playability and finish thoroughly trumped anything that I played out of Gibson. At least for me, a $2.3k Tokai trumps a $7k Gibson Custom Shop which makes incredibly good value. As for sub-$1k Tokais, many are made in Korea and China so you might be right with those.
@wind016 that's what makes it difficult with tokai, you never know what you'll actually get and the return process is a pain
@@sydguitar99 yea. I would only purchase the made in Japan models. I have no qualms buying those online. At worst, it would be no worse than Gibson USA quality
My Gibson Les Paul Traditional Pro ii is my baby
My most inexpensive Les Paul is my best playing. It’s a 2001 Korean made, Samick I’m sure. Everything is just right about it. It does weigh about half a ton but I don’t gig it so no issues there. It’s completely factory and I love blind testing folk when they come to the house. Most pick it over my 76 custom 😅
You can pick a good one of these up for £400 or $550. If you get the chance to buy one then do it.
Where does an Epi LP Studio fit in?
With Gibson Les Pauls, as the price goes up, you're basically paying exponentially for appearance. I have a 2015 Faded that I got from direct the Demo shop for 899 with a case. Dot inlays, no binding, and a maple neck (with some flame actually), but the same pickup set as the custom. Between that and the Studio is a sweet spot for value in a range of models that gets expensive fast.
Whoops, 2016
“It’s nothing special”
Sir, hold your tongue. That is THE Les Paul Special
What riff is the one in 2:50
I've never felt like Slash and I hope I never do, it might affect my playing.
Still trying to figure out what level my Chepiphone Custom is at 🤔
I have an epiphone les paul 100 its a little nicked and scratched but still is an awesome guitar
Trying to find the links for pricing differences in the description, I’m not seeing any links to sweet water
Check out the products tagged in the video!
No tribute or studio?
At 31:10 you just didnt get the sub, but also my heart. I dont let anyone touch my lemonburst lp, it goes from my hand to the case.... Soon no one will br breathing in it 😂😅
That amp makes level 1 sound good
Nobody should get a chibson over an Epiphone if they plan on playing it (if you want a Gibson as a wall decoration, that's another thing).
They cost pretty much the same and chibsons are known to in the past have serious non-fixable issues (wrong neck angle, maxed out truss rods from the factory, badly treated wood that crack and/or warp as well as blemishes such as chipped out wood where the gaps have been flooded with epoxy or superglue and then finished over
Yo is there anyway i could get a free cheap cheap electric guitar ? I’ve been wanting one badlyyyy.Like even if its like a trash les Paul i’ll take it mann 🙏😭
SG >
All i can think of when hes pkaying the gold and black guitar is bocchi
i prefer edwards , navigator's les paul which are under of esp . lastly , of course is maybach lester ( lp shape )
Were the subtitles done by AI?
Almost all UA-cam subtitles are simple speech to text
So why does the thumbnail say $99?
Buy a set of nut files and fix those tinning issues yourself. They pay for themselves if you have a few guitars.
You definitely skipped a few levels my man 😂
Why put 99 dlls 9n the thumbnail when the cheapest one is 150?
And where does the chibson fit in? Lol
7:55 mf doom fans be like
Bro said the Epiphone les paul SPECIAL was nothing special 😞
It's never worth buying fake Gibson Les Pauls because there is literally no regulation on those guitars so some have been found to have lead paint in them.
Thumbnail said $99 and within the first 15 seconds, he says minimum of $150
that's called clickbait
@@Clevuhguy lying is annoying
The first 4 levels of "Les Paul" are NOT Les Pauls. They may look like Les Paul or sound similar, but they are NOT Les Pauls.
Hahahaha 😂😂...
The body shape and style is what Les Paul agreed with Gibson to be the Les Paul...
That's what Gibson patented and will demand other brands for sure if they use it although they don't sound equal...
In fact, Les Paul sound is too far of Gibson's Les Paul models... He used single coils and the most of them were Epiphone branded .... He didn't have the classic thick sound we have today
So, what you're saying is completely stupid...
@@raygonzalez1281 I can only assume that this is all from someone who does not own an actual Gibson Les Paul...
@@IndyRockStar I own 4 Gibson, 2 Gold Top, 2 Customs...
But history is history....
I can only assume that your statement is all that comes from people who are ignorant... And there's no money that can change that
You missed the best one. The '61 Gibson Les Paul is arguably one of the greatest guitars.
You are a awesome player. Always have been. But....lol...get rid of the grandpa Gibson's and get a ESP or PRS single cut that's modern. Made better. Stainless steel frets. $6000 guitar 🎸 that can't keep tune as well as a PRS SE lol 🤣👍🏻
I dont know who, but there is at least one boomer that is drooling knowing that you could own 7 of the exact same shaped guitar, and i wont lie, im a bit mad about it. Mainly cause places like guitar center carry a les paul and strat shape to cater to them, and it unfortunately takes up the entire wall. You'll be lucky to see a flying v.
No no that is no where near level 1 les paul.. if u want to get ancient and have a bare bones les paul I own it. The Epiphone Les Paul SL. Bought this baby awhile back 2019 or so and this thing has 2 single pickups and thats it.
Theyre actually both the exact same price. The difference is yours comes with a pick guard and nicer finish but has singles instead of humbuckers.
$6,000 is barely in the custom shop, more like the bottom tiers of les paul am i rite
I have the solution for perfect les paul tuning on my channel
Don’t encourage piracy by recommending Chibsons to new guitarists. They’d be much better off with an Epiphone.
Even epiphones are getting hard to get with recent prices. Musicians take what they can get at the start. I assure you gibson will not get poor since they're busy selling 50k Murphy age to doctors and people who buy guitars as if it was stock investment
F that, no one should ever buy an Epiphone or anything from any Gibson brand. They are what is wrong with the guitar business and deserve all the hate they get for making shitty overpriced guitars and for the numerous lawsuits they file to bully the competition out of existence.
Nope my chibsons play and sound better than any gibson ive tried in a guitar center.Lay off the blatant xenophobia.
@@VHToff0liyep, some epi’s going for 1.5k, it’s absurd. epiphone is the budget brand of gibson, it shouldn’t be as much as a real gibson sg (i saw an sg at guitar center for 2k, $500 difference!)
@@trevorD1156that's right.
Aprende a afinar. No son las guitarras el problema.
The editing gave me ADHD. Calm down ffs.
Agree. Was like watching TikTok.
I did not! I repeat! I did not want to watch a video that lasts over half an hour.
But I just couldn't stop before the end.
Please stop making videos!
Sincerely disappointed in this video for promoting counterfeit guitars
I have an epiphone les paul, it has always sounded great to me. Even with the new pickups in it, still sounds great. I've picked up and played Gibsons at guitar center, and it may have been they in desperate need of being set up, but always just sounded bad to me for some reason. Epiphone has always been superior to me.
