when you hit the chord melody my jaw dropped! Awesome box Jonathan!
love the sound of this guitar, love your playing as well
wow! just about blew me out of my seat when you started playing, such a powerful and complex tone - but I wonder if the player hears it - maybe not, maybe it's all going out to the listener. But that's okay!
What a stunning example of a guitar built for purpose. I love the the pre-Gibson Epi's, and I really don't think they get the respect they deserve. Thanks for sharing the story, especially with your honesty about not understanding the guitar in the beginning.
As always, your playing is spot on, and brings the instrument to life.
You need to get one of those battery powered bow ties that spins while you play that guitar. That is a very cool archtop by the way.
kinda funny. but come on be nice.......lol
Glad you mentioned the neuro we go through with these artworks, and if you bond it's great.
I love the sound of the rhythm guitar on this. I can understand what you mean by it cuts through the band, and I love hearing the rhythm guitar in a band setting. Something about that chunky, driving feeling. (maybe its' because I'm a dancer..)
Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for posting. Beautiful playing and the guitar sounds great.
Thanks for posting this and other archtop clips, I find myself at a late stage in the game looking at solely acoustic archtops and you are such a great resource for sounds, thoughts and ideas! Not to mention the fact your playing is outstanding - keep up the good work and strum on.
Thanks Jonathan ,you show the exact way to describe an archtop guitar.First as a very
talented and tasteful player who puts the light on the Acoustic tone .this Epiphone is
a rare nugget .Could be interesting to compare with new ones ..
The guitar sounds beautiful and as you describe its performance in the solo context. I'm glad to have discovered your channel. Where else could I find so many mentions, obviously admiring or otherwise, of my favorite guitarist, Allan Reuss? A marvelous job you do on his "One Hour" solo; that was probably the thing that turned me on to his playing several years ago. Of course, too, Reuss was THE greatest rhythm player, in both big bands and small groups; I prefer him to Freddie Green, anyway. Allan was an unmistakable presence; you can always identify his distinctive "throb." Please continue the demos!
Good grief that sounds fantastic! Just what I love to hear. Lovely juicy articulate midrange. Just killer.
The guitar sounds great ! Too bad Epi passed away at a young age who knows what might of been I wish I had a time machine to go back in time to the Epiphone showroom when Epi would have all of the famous players playing in his showroom !
Beautiful, Thanks For your fine playing and Demo........
Great video about discovering the specifics about a prewar acoustic archtop guitar.
Sounds so good man!
I enjoyed the jam!! thanks
Man I only made it to the 12 in marc I just ahv ro crash. As you can see by my typing. You keep up the good work. No jokoing here. Seroius!

That was a wise purchase. The Epiphone sounds great solo, but maybe that's because I like mid-range tone on f-hole arch-tops.
epiphone de lux is being offered again , just bought one . may be if you see one in the stores you could compare
nice playing !
super merci
sounds real good... I got one of 'em too...
?? Loved it all, who do you use to do your setups and nut work. I’m in NYC
Ya know, that ax looks new, no noticeable wear or patina, it must of been kept in a vacuum case on a starship, nice score.
Hi Jonathan, how is the neck angle, bridge height, and action on this guitar?
What is the type of tailpiece pickup you are using?
Hi, I love Epiphone. Beautiful sounds. What strings are you using? I usually use the Thomastik 6E .013 for my Epiphone Broadway 1933. All the best, Masaki from Kobe, Japan.
le nom du morceau interprète? s il vous plait merci super
I've been thinking about getting me a new Epiphone archtop guitar, but I'm not sure if their quality is too good these days.. The Masterbilt De Luxe model seems rather interesting. This guitar sounds amazing at least.
OP Alaraasakka the new epiphone archtops I've played are nicer than might be expected from most of their output in the last 60 years. But if you keep your eye out you can get a preGibson epi for close to the same money that will be far superior players, especially if you aren't as concerned with aesthetic condition. The new ones I've played weren't altogether disappointing though as long as you arent expecting it to sound as rich as the one in this video. It wouldn't be my choice but it can't hurt to try one. I liked them better than the loars
BIg sounds ^_^
So, now you've got the L-5 are you still playing this ole gal?
Dy no mite!
Since this is an older video you probably won’t see this comment. But I’m wondering if you know how this might compare to the new Epiphone deluxe?
I try not be unkind, but those new Epiphone Masterbilt archtops are terrible. They’re not carved top instruments, and they’re almost designed to be plugged in first. Except, even then they don’t deliver any of the quintessential acoustic archtop tone, and they sound like the crappy piezo pickup in a mediocre flattop. So, yeah, they’re just dreadful.
And this is a stellar-quality vintage Epiphone from the era when Epiphone really took the lead over Gibson. While I never quite bonded with it, and sold it after two years to fund the purchase of my 1939 L-5, it was a fantastic guitar.
So comparison? There is no comparison. One’s a fantastic vintage example, and the other... dreck.
If you can’t afford a good vintage guitar (which is totally fair, by the way), buy a Loar LH-600 or 700. Those are viable acoustic archtops, especially after you break them in.
@@jonathanstout6618 Thank you so much for the kind reply! I’ve read pro and con reviews for the DeLuxe and it’s nice to check it off the list. I was looking at that, a Gretsch New Yorker and the Loar 600/700 but definitely leaning towards the latter. I’m mainly a country flattop rhythm player and looking to learn some new skills. I found a vintage DeLuxe for a comparable price but it’s more of a project and will need a visit to the luthier. I’m driving back from Texas and enjoying your videos, thanks again!
How come (5:15) you pronounce 'D'Aquisto' correctly yet pronounce 'D'Angelico' incorrectly? --- it's pronounced the same as 'D'Addario', with a 'DA' at the start -- DADdario, DANgelico ----- that Epiphone De Luxe, to me, sounds the best of all your archtops.
You're right about the pronunciations, but, unfortunately, the majority rules. Most people pronounce the two names as Jon did.
なに、この速弾き。。 スゴイ。。 自由自在やんけ。。。 いい音するな。。 エピの オールド。。
you sure have a wonderful voice....play the guitar please .
