I just ordered this guitar tonight, I actually like the fact that its a 3 piece top without the nibs, at least its different and it sounds great. You did a great job playing it and showing what it can do.
I love les Paul’s, I like slash, I love honey burst, but I don’t care for the 3 piece top thing. I’d rather have a 58 CS plain top on lemon or honey burst. Or even just a standard in honey. But it’s a cool guitar 🎸👍🏼
I bought a Jessica and immediatly upgraded the pickups to the Slash 2.0s, did some fretwork, and changed to the blank truss rod cover, lol. Great minds..
I love Slash and own the Appetite but to remake a guitar that Gibson couldn't sell because it was a factory second but now charge a premium for seems like a cash grab. Ymmv.
Lol ANOTHER slash sig. They should just say every les Paul from here on out is a slash sig. Gibson is riding that train till the wheels fall all the way off..but..I do like this one...
Is it that much better? Im no expert, but my Epi is killer. I did hear you say you don't care for the Custombucker's. I havent even begun to wring all the tones out of mine.

Why a 3 pieces top would be a problem ? Where are the studies that show that 2 pieces is better than 3 for the sound of the guitar ? Maybe a study would show 3 pieces is better for the sound a guitar ? I'm fed up to hear those crap. A good guitar player will make any decent guitar sound good. A bad guitar player will make any guitar sound bad no matter how many pieces the top is made of.
@@GeorgeVGuitars I like the look of a 3 pieces top, it's different. And sorry but you hear everywhere that a one piece body is better that a 2-3 pieces body. But the truth is nobody know cause no scientific experiment on how the sound waves propagates the best inside a guitar body were ever made, or if it was made it's not public. So who knows ? Maybe the glue that glue a two part body give some energy to the sound wave so it accelerates and thus the propagation of the sound is better, who know ?
Ha, just finishing your review. It's kind of funny how you describe the appearance and how you don't like it and proceed to describe basic features of LPs! Don't like rosewood, no trap inlays, no chucky necks! Just add no single cut, no humbuckers, . Enjoyed the review though. LPs arent for everyone that is for sure. I personally love them. Peace
These kinds of guys that churn out and torture guitars with this f#$%cking heavy metal shite. Mate, that shite is so bloody over. Everytime I hear somebody banging out guitar riffs like this I have to go off the video. I don't know where this shite ever started, but it has to go

Good choice, enjoy it 🤘🏻
this guitar is really beautiful. It's my favorite of all the Slash Gibson. I like that it's not a flamed top.
Yeah it is unique 👀

Yeah
I’ll be getting the Epiphone version !
Fantastic video.
Thank you, sir 🫡
custom shop Murphy lab Jessica already exist from 2008 limited run. 2 versions custom shop VOS and aged Murphy lab
Ah yes, the "Inspired by" thing. I forgot about that one, 16 years ago, thank you :>

Yeah the Jess needs Slash SD pups
Awesome review brother! Alot of money though for mediocre pickups and no fret nibs
On to the used market in 2 years 👀
Had afd series..love it

I just ordered the AFD 👀 Video coming soon
I love it but I don't have the money to buy it but nice video.
Get any of the Epiphone versions - they are great

Yep :>
Nighttrain wheels
Obviously they are selling or they wouldn’t keep making them.
Any difference in the sound with three pieces on top and two?
Probably not much
50’s style wiring with orange drop capacitors
But its modern wiring
What is the riff at 23:00 minutes ?
@@mortgagepartnerscorporatio2673 The clean riff from Don't Cry
I meant 23:15

No, but I have met Victoria!
Ah yes, the golden lady. I've checked out the Epi, hopefully the Gibson soon 👀

@@johndaugherty4127 Yeah, they are not the same guitar at all. The Epi is still good tho.
It was already refinished by the UYI era
Thank you 🤘🏻
in the 91-92 uyi videos it was still a tomato soup color

Yeah :>

My personal collection is 4 Gibson LP Custom guitars ;) Just don't like the Standard specs
@@GeorgeVGuitars 👍🏼🎸
That Les Paul won't made by Gibson slash had it privately made
It was a factory second that Gibson gave to him and he refinished ;)
@@GeorgeVGuitarsyea he’s thinking about the AFD Derrig guitar.
@@GeorgeVGuitars he actually had to pay for it at a discount under special artist
Overpriced and nothing special. Nowhere near 2010 AFD which is better in every respect.
Mmm

Okay then go 🖤 The intro riff is Velvet Revolver 🤣 (Metal)
Way over priced Gibson crap
