    Its took pretty much 23 years to own a Gibson that connects with me on this level but that wait is over.
    I hope you enjoy this vid and the music that came out of this fantastic guitar. : )

    Keep coming back for more - "What Was & Cannot Ever Be" - you out did yourself on this part - its a journey of the imagination. At 34:30 the heads begin to roll and the whole section, its beginning, middle and end mirrors a Synphony of sorts. Your talents are most envious. MASSIVE TONE arrives at 36:43 and Jims a happy guy. lets not forget THAT IS ONE MOTHER OF A GUITAR. Can I get a AMEN ! ! !

    I was told once that you don't pick a guitar the guitar picks you ...here is a prime example why this is so true ... Recently brought a honey burst epiphone Les Paul classic and it did the very same thing .. amazing guitar. Enjoyed your story Dave

    It blows my mind that when you find a gem of a Les Paul, it feels like you're connecting directly with Les Paul. Such an icon in the world of electric guitar.

      I just rewatched Dave's Peter Green EP10 upload. I think a few of those should get replayed on this guitar. I'm really curious if I will hear what I'm hearing in this video. It's "Dave" but thru a a Les Paul. The Ep10 video is mostly a Les Paul, Dave is there. That whole player + instrument intangible intuition thing is what I'm thinking will come out more obviously.

    thats why i dont visit music stores anymore.. i went in for some strings and a strap and i walked out with a Gibson Les Paul 58 reissue and a very light wallet...
    the feel of the neck, the weight, the balance, the resonance.. just perfect in every way for me.

    This is awesome and it mirrors the experience I had with my Les Paul when I first experienced it. I went into the store just to look around, saw the LP hanging there and felt pulled towards it. I took it down, plugged it in and fell in love with it! My wife knew that this guitar had attached itself to me but I kept saying I couldn't afford it. While I was playing it my wife went to the sales staff, made a deal and purchased it on a payment plan without me knowing. After I came out of my trance and stopped playing it she asked me, "would you love to own that guitar?" I said "oh yes I certanily would," she then said "well it is yours now, I just bought it for you!" I didn't think she would want us to spend such a huge chunk of cash on a guitar at that time but she said she just knew I would be devastated to walk out of that store without that particular guitar. The only thing I have done to it was to change the pick-up rings and put a plain truss rod cover on it, just like Dave did! I had a few LP's before this one, even had a Custom at one point but none of them compares to this LP that I now have, it is my musical soulmate for sure! Congrats on this awesome guitar Dave, there's just nothing like a very special Les Paul when it speaks to you! :-)

    I love that maple top. My kind of Paul. Dave, I enjoyed the story very much. I'm an old man and have had a few Pauls thru the long years. Never loved any of them; Until the author Mark Wolynn (A wonderful player) bought a 2008 black Gibson Les Paul BFG w/P90s and presented it to me. It has that magic feel. It's my love, so to speak. Thank you for sharing this presentation.

    This is a good example of how we feel about the guitars we love, and once it’s paired with the right amp. Nothing can replace it..so don’t sell your love thinking you’ll find another some other time down the road..that day will never come….and the bad folks that steal them can’t even imagine the loss we go through, or so much as even care…likely because they are in such a bad place, they have never experienced that feeling….best wishes for your find…

    Best thing about you dave, as well as your playing, is we know you're not just featuring expensive guitars. Especially your own. So its great to see your own new Gibson. You deserve it my friend and I can see it speaking to you even through UA-cam. Brilliant mate!

  • @davidbrowning6762
    @davidbrowning6762 Рік тому +3

    The same thing happened to me with my Gibson Les Paul. I traded in 6 other guitars to get it. I had absolutely no regrets about it. Just like you said it will not be leaving me.

    Had the same experience in 2008. I almost gave up my search for a Les Paul. Must have tried 50 different ones. Standards, studios and even a couple of customs. One day I went to buy strings and in the corner of my eye I saw a Tobacco Sunburst Les Paul. I bought my strings and decided to take a closer look. After five minutes of playing and another five minutes of convincing my dad to lend me the money until my next paycheck I went home with it. Still have it and if I have a bad day it allways makes me feel better. Will never be sold.

    Dave it’s gorgeous. I agree totally about the underwhelming flame tops that I find more appealing than the super flamed tops. The light flame on mine is what made me zero in on it and once I held it, it was mine.
