Plug into a Marshall tube amp. Bam, done
Bohdan Ilasz yep! I plug my LP standard into my 100w Marshall half stack and achieve all the rock tone one could want!
That's the true.
Facts
If its conveniently set up with the right settings then yeah sure. If not then it could sound literally awful.
Ya or Orange
“A guitar is a bass, a bass is a bass”
thanks for clarifying Robert. I really needed that :)
03:09 "A guitar is not a Bass, a bass is a bass " never a truer word spoken brother! 🇬🇧
YOUR THE BEST GUITARIST EVER ROBERT. I am also a guitarist and I have an identical Gibson les Paul with p90’s and it sounds soo amazing.
Wow dude gettin after it!!! And that is some wicked tone!!!
I can't use that stuff. By the time I'm done fiddling with knobs I'm too exhausted to play anything.
chzzyg269 I feel the same many times!
Most folk feel the same, but they're missing out on so much of their guitar's tone.
Sweet bro....I got the Alnico II slash set......I love em thanks for the tips
Diggin it. Always great to see how guitarists dial in their amps. Can't wait to hear different guitars and amps.
Yes definitely want to see how you dial in your tone on a tube amp for a strat, Tele & a LP
Love the tone videos! I struggle to get a tone I like and these help a lot.
My guitar teacher told me this about the Les Paul - "It's like my old lady, if you can handle the bottom end without it screaming too much....u r good"
thanks Robert. Using my new Les Paul and my Spark amp, you set me up. thanks.
That’s great mate.... definitely like to see the same thing done with a tube amp and pedals.
Answer: plug it into an amp. Ain't no such thing as a bad Les Paul tone
Ehh depends on music type but yeah the tones aren't bad
True but not true at the same time😂
@@BuckarooBeatdown if your being serious then it's probably the guitar. If it's an actual Gibson you might wanna contact your seller to see if you can work something out. As the high price can usually net something
@@BuckarooBeatdown probably the frets haven t the same height
@aNtiDIsEsTabLisHMenTaRiAniSM StRuCtuREd aGaiNSt yOu true. Also let's be honest some gibsons were built like shit and some sound like shit. Not bashing anyone or anything just stating facts
LP and a plexi tone is gold for my ear
Great video!
07:58 "if I need less of that high end I use my Guitar to roll the high end off"
--> Well said!
Despite what a lot of folks think, the Les Paul is an extremely versatile tone monster! I like to remind folks to play about with those volume and tone controls, try also setting the middle pickup selector position and using the controls to dial in a huge range on tones. You can also consider changing the pots (responsible for much of the LP's tone) to give a different initial and rollout behaviour - lots of info online. A lot of folks think that having those pots set at anything but max will "degrade tone" - for these folks I'd say check out a few Gary Moore live youtube videos for a master level lesson e.g. turning a high gain lead tone into a bright clean tone, and everything in between, just with those knobs. Of course, you will 'feel this' most when playing live in a band setting, especially through a real tube amp. If you don't use those guitar knobs, you're literally throwing away way more than half the cost of the guitar!
would love these type of videos with your marshall origin!
These videos are great. Your favourite tones and how to dial them in for popular guitars would be awesome.
Thanks Robert. You created a "chunky" LP tone I've been searching high and low for for weeks and thought it was only in my imagination.
Keep up the great vids !
Please do videos for tube amps with maybe the 3or 4 Guitars " everyone needs." Thanks Homie! Great video by the way.
Sick playin bro! It would be dope to see you dig up some wicked rock tones from a Mesa Mark IV 👏🏻
This was fun! It would be great to see a tube amp version. Maybe the Friedman you mentioned?
I’m loving this tone you’re making every step of the way.
Loving these tone videos!!
Hey Robert if you like the brighter tones you should try using a treble booster into the plexi normal and it kicks ass! Also i made a killer Van Halen preset on my Axe III if you're interested, i can send you it if you like. Cheers.
Fire up that Friedman! 💙💙👏
Great videooo!! Really helpful.
You could do some videos searching for famous guitar players tone like jimmy page for example.
I’m a simple guy, you say Les Paul I click like😊🎸
Think Angus plugs into a Marshall turns to 7 on volume and that’s it. Looking at his rig run down video. Remember us of the older brigade just had a guitar and amp. Was pretty successful back in the day. Just use your tone knob.
I have an epiphone les Paul, theoretically would putting in better pickups make the guitar much better?
Great video Robert! So easy to dial in a killer tone on that AXE FX...just amazing. I would love to see one on a tube amp for sure next time. Would like to see how you use an external pedal(s) to dial in your Reverb and Delay. I’ve only seen you playing through the AXE FX, so looking forward it. 🤟🤟
I agree with the bright setting. I have a Peavey classic amp and most 2 bucker guitars I have the bright switch on.depending on the situation of course.
Great tone Robert. Gonna give this a try on my HeadRush and LP 🤘
Great bud thanks I’ve been using my Modeling amps etc but have recently gone back up my 5 watt head and 30 watt cab and it’s so sweet
Modelling amp software can start to sound a bit digital and muffly after a while.
Definitely do a video on Tube amps. If you can, make sure you demo a Fender or Marshall tube amp that is very common out there. Fender Deluxe Reverb or Marshall DSL type amps would be my suggestions.
Funny intro Robert!
I'd be happy for you to show me how you'd set up a basic amp without modeling - one with high/low/mid/gain/master knobs, talking about which you like about each setting. Reverb, pedals.
Modeling isn't my thing yet.
Greetings from London UK 🇬🇧Always enjoy your videos Robert...you are a Great Guy, keep up the good work.
PS...
My Students get to see tons of your videos....they are helping to keep yer Rolling over here bro 🤘
I finally got myself an Epiphone 50's standard, the new ones they came out with for 599 and I am happy with it, but I think later on I will try putting some P90s in it.
Cool sound,
I really enjoyed this video, thanks!
More videos showing how to get tones out of gear in general would be great Rob, especially the basic approach as we can't all afford the higher end gear - would help to avoid just going after more gear to get the right tone. I've got a katana 50 mk (regret not getting the 100 for theFX loop) and ZOOM g3N, plus a dirty shirley pedal. Also have an old VS8080 - i know an aceptable tone is in there somewhere but damned if i know how to get it out :)
Hell yeah! Thanks Bob
Can you do a video on how to thicken your guitar sound for live use? Using an amp and pedals! Thank you. M
Why would you want to sound thick in a band context
@@rainerwinkler1026 because in two of the bands I play in, I'm the only guitarist. And one of those bands only has me, a bass player, and a drummer.
Tubes please!
Great video. Very informative
These are so cool and helpful videos:)
A Les Paul with Dimarzio pickups is bound to be a badass sounding instrument period. As much as people shit on Gibson. They were and still are the shit when it comes to making good sounding guitars.
How about some full hollowbody tones with a tube amp, something super dark with advice on controlling feedback.
Awesome playing bro ... some delicious 335 tones would be nicer than nice👌👍
A Les Paul is an untamed beast! Just like a wild horse that you can only tame just enough to ride- but be prepared to get thrown off if you're not paying attention!
Yes and a jcm800 is also an untamed beast...once both are mastered its tone gold...
Good analysis!!
pretty cool i like it
Man your tone always sounds so thick and juicy. I know I heard you say in a video a while back you weren’t to fond of bare knuckle pickups I recently put a nailbomb alnico 5 version in my les Paul because I wanted something a little more rocking than the standard burstbucker. I’m still trying to adjust to the high output and voice of it though messing with the height a whole bunch trying to get it to a sweet spot. It seems like I find a good place then the next day I’ll be like well I don’t know. It seems like I just can’t get it in a place where I’m fully satisfied with it. Didn’t know if you had any suggestions for anything to try probably just a different pickup I guess. The thing is if you wanna do ripping 80s licks and stuff like that it’s phenomenal but I play a lot of blues licks to and it just doesn’t seem to cut it for that stuff to much aggression. I guess I’m looking for the perfect in between pickup something in between the classic paf pickup and a high output shred machine. I thought about maybe trying a Friedman classic plus.
I've been playing for abt 16 years but just recently added a Gibson Les Paul to the arsenal. I've played a lot of Gibsons over the years and never had one that felt quite right. What a Tone MONSTER! I can just plug directly into my Rivera and get a tone that is ridiculous. Has become one of my 'Go To' guitars for that beautifully thick lead tone and absolutely raucous rhythm. Never thought I'd say that I'm in love with a Les Paul but I really am.
Heeey, really nice video, as always! You should really do a "how to dial a wicked tele tone". Then there would be videos for all the 3 classics, it would be awesome! \m/
This was a fun video!!
Can you reccomend headphones for silent practice. Some suck for guitars.
is that a pair of JBL 305P MKII monitors in the background? I just bought a pair last month and I'm quite happy with them...
Do both a Tube amp AND a Solid State amp like a Peavey Bandit or equivalent and dial them both in PLUS a clean amp and use a menagerie of Pedals.
First , load your Les Paul with a Suhr Doug Aldrich humbucker set ... Awesome pick ups for Les Pauls !!
That old monster of an LP with cream pups is the stuff of dreams.
Does using that axe effect take away from using a vintage Les Paul . Would using a lesser guitar maybe give the same results not trying to be critical just curious. Would you notice a difference with a Epiphone.
Not a $2000 difference no!!
Nice Double cream pickups! Are those Dimarzio's?
I'll be honest Robert.The thumbnail wicked pic of this video,made me a little hesitant to click on it......but I'm glad I did !!
Cool video
Have you done any lessons on
The darkness (open fire in particular)
AC/DC
Iron Maiden
Judas Priest
Dokken
Killing Joke
Jason and the scorchers (last time around in particular)
Spy vs Spy (Aussie band)
Midnight Oil
Cold chisel
Charlie sexton
Hey Robert! How about posting the specs on the LP you're using for this video. Thanks! I have a 91 Standard Heritage Cherry Burst. Only mods are a SD JB and a 59. Fair winds and following seas to all.
Most of this could be applied to an SG also, but is there anything specific to an SG you’d do different?
I can't get a sound I like out of my Paul. It's a 2001 Korea Epi. The original pickups were fine, looking back. I had a guy make me some new pickups, he said they were "Page copies," but they sound so bad. But I don't know if that's what's wrong. I have replaced all the hardware, but my neck is off axis in all three directions so bad that I actually had to get a custom nut with the three smaller string notches farther up just so I'm not flat in the top register, and I have to pull my pickups back to less than flush or the strings hit them, and my high e string is too close to the edge of the frets so it slips off the fingerboard really easily. So yes, it is possible to have a bad LP tone; in fact it's possible to have one that you literally can't use because it sounds like donkey brays no matter what you do with it. Luckily a friend of mine lent me a Tele amer. pro., which I can't get a tone out of that I don't like. And there, my life story. I'm trying to remember to talk less but oh well.
Hey Robert, got a question: im looking to get a strat in a couple months when i got the money. i cant really decide if i should buy a fender player series or nomething from another company? any recommendations in that pricepoint? (needs to be available in germany)
Estelon Agarwaen Squier Strats are really great for the money
Estelon Agarwaen
I have a classic vibe squier strat and let me tell you it’s one of the most amazing guitars I’ve ever played!
Sometimes I think it’s an American fender and it’s $400 ITS AMAZING YOU WILL NOT BE DISAPPOINTED AND THE PICKUPS ARE UNREAL!
Try sweet water they have international shipping and the best service and best prices.
@@joemellusi533 ive got a two harley bentons rn, good for the price, but i want Something with a name on the headstock, hence fender, not squier. Or something from another brand, but i dont know really.
I thought the first thing you did was an awesome tone.
Fire up that Black Widow MPG-1😉.
I don't even own a LP (yet), but I watched this anyway. Sucks that I'm a lefty, haven't found one in the pawn shops so far. Seen a bunch of awesome regular ones, but no lefties.
Hey what DAW are you using..? Robert "a bass is a bass"
Nice man, how do you stop the hisssss
Noise gate. My personal weapon of choice is the MXR Smart Gate.
What pickups are those? pls
It's kinda smooth and creamy at the same time
Great stuff. I need an axfx
what is your pickup? seymour duncan?
Very useful video, Robert! Been playing live for well over 30 years and still sometimes cringe at my sound in certain venues. Please do some more on dialing in on "them darn tones" but from a visual point of view, could we have a little less of you and a bit more of the Axe Edit. (Nothing personal)? 👍👍😁
So.. My $40 Epi Junior with a Series Parallel switching SD Full Shred.. My $20 Peavey Bandit Silver stripe and 11-50 NYXL. Done... The rest is setup player and using the volume and tone on the guitar... Parallel cleans up a non treble bleed humbucker better than turning down the volume.
Whatever your doing here is irrelevant to so many of us.
What's series parallel switching?
@@ImpostorModanica Google my friend. Best mod on a single humbucker guitar. Actually it really makes having anything more overkill. Series (the default wiring of a humbucker) makes it loud and midrange heavy and cuts the treble off.. Parallel is significantly quieter but has a much more open sound and can make an aweful sounding muddy humbucker come to life. If you hate the tone of a Neck humbucker rewire it in Parallel internally and it usually will be good afterwards assuming you don't wreck it... Having them wired to a push pull pot you can set just switch between the two for lead tones or whatever you set at the amp.
@@the_nondrive_side Sounds great Mr. Holland thanks for explaining!
@@ImpostorModanica no problem. It's my #1 mod to cheap Epiphone neck humbuckers.. Say the special II which is where I tried it first.. No need for new pickups at all. A good high gain amp cleans up just switching to neck.. And it's a free mod.
@@the_nondrive_side nice!
What tuning you use
Goldies treble p'up just took it over the top !
Tones using a tube would be awesome, exploring this with a strat and tele as well (other guitars as well like RG’s and what not also doesn’t hurt) would be great too! Thank you for the tips 🤘🏼
Tube amps would be great please!
can you take a strat and get a nice tone with that revv you got?
BEST VIDEO EVER!!
Cool i made it 420 thumbs up!
Back to the attack!
y not consider over wrapping your stop tailpiece, I can see its setup quite high..
Lets try live tone, not processing and computer recording
.
Tricks for wicked Les Paul tone:
1 get a Les Paul
2 plug it in a Marshall
3 crank it up LOUD
4 see step 3
Ah ha I found my problem, I have way to many hangnails lol
13:45 my face just got burnt off, needs a warning, want my face back
Do you sidechain and duck your reverb? If not, you should.
Man I’m not sure what that even means 😅
@@RobertBakerGuitar It's where you send your signal to a second channel that's just for reverb, but you compress that reverb out of the way. Like a wet/dry setup but in your daw and actually even better, look up a how to and I promise you'll love it. Search "side chaining" and "reverb," "compression," "ducking," etc.
Nice!
Thanks busdy
Tube amps please ❤
Have u ever thought of making your own music and starting a band. Your still not to old. U could take things to the next level and you have alot of good ideas. I think u could be a good asset to anyonez band
