  • Here are my thoughts on this beautiful Chibson Les Paul, based on a 1956 Les Paul in Ebony with P90 pickups.
    Sound samples were recorded using Logic Pro X through the JUMP Marshall Simulator of Guitar Rig 6.
    Let me know what you think below, and if you have any questions about it.

    I love my chibson 57 futura. Plays as good as my Gibsons, it’s kinda annoying. The playability of those is great!! Can’t stress that enough.

      Hahah that's awesome! So beautiful! You know, I am digging the tuners. After owning it for a week and a half, I can't put it down. It's become my funnest guitar to play. It stays in tune so well. I'm not a fan of the green tuners, but they are working so far.

    I just received a lefty Chinese Les Paul a few days ago. Beautiful guitar and sounds great. Ebay... $269 plus tax. I can't think of the name of the song that you start playing once you switch over to a clean tone. In the 7th position. It's driving me crazy. Andy Timmons song, perhaps? Help me 😊
    Nice review and that is a great tone!!

    I honestly think that former Epiphone factories in China that lost their contracts for whatever reason make these. I personally would rather just play an Epiphone, but these guitars don't bother me. People should just stamp made in China on the back of the headstock if they sell it so other people down the road don't get scammed. If anything Chibbos make a good throw around guitar for dive bar gigging.

    • @AlexRGuitar
      @AlexRGuitar  23 дні тому

      I agree! I love guitars so I'll play them all. They are great to throw around and to practice setups and modifications without feeling like you are going to mess it up.

      @@AlexRGuitar Noted; I've been eyeing that Gretsch Jet, mainly through your recent video. And this is way cheaper than that...I think I'm mainly drawn to the idea of a Les Paul (or Les Paul - esque) with any kind of a trem bar.

      @@kjuergens1985 To be honest, this Les Paul is more fun to play than the Gretsch. There's something about it. You can always add a Bigsby or even a GuitarFetish.com Xtrem, which seem to be a great affordable alternative to the Bigsby. I may end up doing that to this one, because I love using the vibrato.

    I have two chibsons myself,a cherry burst standard LP that I absolutely adore, and a black Angus Young SG with lightning bolt inlays,out of all the budget guitars I own,these chibsons are the absolute best,they come the closest to the guitars they are trying to copy, they needed very little work to set up, I put locking tuners on both guitars,the pickups in both guitars sound excellent,no need to change them, I will upgrade some of the hardware just to make them more authentic, people always tell you to buy a Epiphone, I don't like their headstock design,or their price tags either, and the chibsons are quality instruments that can rival any epiphone model, this doesn't mean I will never buy another epiphone or a Gibson guitar, I'm still a fan,but I'm also not going to wait to buy my dream guitar, like the chibson Angus SG I've got,it would take me forever to save up the money for a real one which is around five grand, now I have a stunt double,if you want to test drive a Gibson,buy a chibson.
