I absolutely love the Andertons team: engaging, funny, informative, fun, and entertaining. I am in the U.S. but if I ever visit England this shop will be one of the first places I would go. Thanks for all you do guys. Cheers.
Told my other half my 60th birthday present was sorted. She said forward her the link. Great video. Real energy and pure joy. Thanks. Puts a smile on my face.
Yes I bought one in 97 as well 4400 bucks What an excellent guitar Unfortunately in the crunch of 08 I had to sell along with some great old Marshall stuff Now I have a 500 dollar Vintage Peter Green model that I upgraded Kind of heavy but it does the job Probably won't ever buy an expensive guitar like that again
I have one of these guitars (had it for about 3 days now!) ... came to see what folks online had to say about them and I just absolutely LOVED watching this video. Absolutely hits the nail on the head, this is the most amazing guitar I've ever owned easily it's fantastic. Thank you as always, fellas!
It is the most shattering experience of a young man's life when one morning he awakes and quite reasonably says to himself: “I will never play like the Dane.”
If by back on track you mean you have to spend $6,000 in order to get a decent Les Paul, then you are right. Compare these to the ones off the assembly line for $2,500 and you will find that Ephiphones have better quality control.
Hi, I have seen hundreds of your videos, through the years, and I never comment, but your intro, deserves the full recognition, as an exquisite/inspiring/enjoying Blues, thank you very much indeed for your time, and hopefully one day, I can afford those guitars or at least afford to meet you guys...God bless you and take care.
Thanks both. I bought 119, sight unseen lockdown purchase, on the back of this video. You weren't wrong. Thanks for demoing it Pete! 2020 was my 60th too!
Seeing six Anniversary Historic Les Paul's being bantered about is almost more than I can take! And, I have a beautiful 1960 Reissue as it is! It's just that as soon as I see a slight model variation, or color, I want it!!
Lee Your playing is out of this world keep it up man - Great tone and articulation.These guitars are really great sound amazing and look good to.Pete you play with such sensitivity - great touch man.
One last cast Whatever issues Gibson USA may or may not have had over the past decade their Custom Shop output has, in my experience, been exceptionally consistent and of an incredibly high standard. My favourite Les Paul is a 2016 R8 but my 2019 60th Anniversary 1959s are up there too. Yes... I have too many guitars and I’m addicted to Les Pauls. 😜
I bought the ‘59 60th anniversary version from Andertons at the weekend. It arrived on Monday and is absolutely wonderful! Great service all round, thanks guys!
Leaving aside all the period correct hardware, the big difference between a CS Les Paul and a standard production model is the selection of the wood. The CS has its own private stock of lighter, drier mahogany. That results in a snappier, brighter, more dynamic guitar. If you compare it to a heavier production LP without weight relief, and play both acoustically, you immediately notice a slower response and a pronounced low mid “hump” from the heavier model. When you plug it in, that results in a significantly darker sounding guitar - especially in the neck pickup which often can get muddy pretty quickly when you roll the volume back. The LP Custom is a heavy beast too but counteracts that with powerful pickups that accentuate the high mids. Whether the CS is worth the extra depends on how you play. If you only use the bridge pickup with vol and tone on 10 into a high gain amp, then maybe it’s not. If however you like to ride the volume to clean up the tone, use the tone pot and spend time on the neck pickup, then they definitely are.
James MacDonald that’s one of the best synopses of the differences that I’ve ever seen in the YT comments section! I wish my commenters had half of your insight!
Pete and Lee- this was a great episode and your joy of playing these gorgeous guitars totally came through. Well done as always, and for all us Les Paul owners, we can only hope to acquire one of these beauties some day.
I've been saving for ever, spent the past month sell loads of stuff on ebay to boost the pot. I'm ready to sell my les Paul standard and get a custom shop. I'm guttered to learn that for this 60 to be out the 59 has been axed, typical. First world problems ey! It was the 59 in green lemon fade I wanted so bad! 😓 but I wanted to be able to try loads on the shop and pick the one!
Those guitars look and sound amazing. That kind of instrument makes you a better player. Damn. I know the one I want. If Gibson could only make this quality in their standards. Wow.
Thanks for this! You are the Top Gear of the guitar and music world. Watching these LPs like taking a look at some top of the line Aston Martins cruising around the race track.
Hi guys, I was reading about Dave Greenfield of The Stranglers who sadly passed away on the night of the 4th. On The Stranglers website, Jet Black (founding member and drummer) retold the story of how the band started, and how each member was recruited. The first act of the band was to find a place to rehearse, and for Jet to buy a new drum kit. Not surprisingly, being based in Guildford at the time, he got it from Andertons (this'll be 1974 - early '75). I bet Hugh Cornwell (guitar), JJ Burnel (bass) and Dave (keyboards) would've frequented the shop too. I wonder if there's any record of their visits/purchases; they were a great band, and a big part of my school days. Stay safe and thanks as always for the videos. Ed
well.... i have returned to guitars in nick of time . been 14 odd years... no you tube in them days lol.. i have had a Epipgone Les Paul { says Gibson on little headstock cover) in sunburst bought in 1998 sitting in its case really ever since. well i bought new Boss Katana as a start from Andertons today and fingers crossed i can get a good sound out of it. Positive from the lock down has been learning music theory and hitting that important root note eh. 56 yrs old now so still hope lol. As a spiritualist i cant thank the Almighty enough for this company Andertons for the video uploads. to see my fellow human souls giggling like kids at a musical instrument is infectious. its a pity they do not sell furch accoustics . anyway keep the tunes rollin. you are helping an awful lot of people. God bless you.
I feel like Andertons is one of the only channels I can hear those subtle differences in guitars, these sound amazing! The biggest video for me that exemplified this however was the Fender 2019 ones where the Vintera just had a tone I loved and really subtle but this kind of certain harmonic profile and in the recent videos this is shown again (the Vintera vs Original series one and the Offset series).
I played this exact guitar and the 1959 version at my friend's house for several hours...he owns both. I brought my cheap 2018 Gibson Les Paul studio modern along for comparison. I am mainly a PRS guy... owning a core 24, CE 24 and a Chris Robertson. Anyway, the Les Paul custom shop 60 and 59 without adjusting EQ sound warner and more bassy than the studio. The studio is significantly brighter. You can always remove brightness but you can't add it.... so I think that's a plus for the studio. But you can't add sustain and overall warmth to a guitar...which the custom shop has a bit more of. Of course when you add overdrive you will get a different sound also....the studio more punch and the custom smoother. I really like the sound of both... depending on what tone you are after. At the end of the day is it worth paying more for the custom shop. Well both sound great. But if you want an exact sound you have to buy the guitar that gives you that exact sound. People should really play both though to see what sounds best to them. Again I have very expensive PRS guitars and some less expensive ones. I can't say that higher price always sounds and plays better. In some cases it does and in others it doesn't. I am not really convinced that AAA wood makes a guitar sound better than AA...or Asian vs USA pickups...a lot of this is just good marketing. But again depends on sound you're after. Maybe I'll buy a custom shop to add to my collection because I can who knows...most of my guitars sound fairly similar with minor sound differences... so it's more of an addiction than a real need.
Hi guys, I have a 50's P90 GoldTop from 2019. It's already magical. I cannot imagine what kind of extra magic I could buy for 3 times the money :-D. Still a great video !!!! Cheers guys !
TBH it would be pretty good if you did a comparison over this and the standard 50's/60's respectively....those flametops do look nice though...edit: Then Lee instantly makes a comparison. Cheers for that :)
The V3 Tomato Soup that Pete plays here is 00448. I've just bought mine and it's 00450. Can't believe they're so close. Although I did buy mine from Andertons.
Possibly the best video by Anderton's TV. Like E.V.E.R! It just all came together SO well... helped, absolutely, by those stunning Les Paul Anniversary R0s.
These guitars sound awesome. Just bought my first ever Gibson yesterday. Its a 60's Standard and boy does it sound and feel great. I can see the Strat being relegated to the case for ever more.
I've watched this about 84 times now trying to pick up clues on which version i want. Ended up ordering the V3. Can't wait. Thanks a bunch guys - very helpful as always.
@@KingandEyeband I bought the V3 - just came down to the best top and other extras and price between the V2 and V3. I got a great deal on a V3 that is gorgeous so i went that way, Good luck!
Great video and demonstration. Interesting to hear Lee say that he doesn’t want to use overdrive. When you hear the clean tones (particularly with Pete playing) then 6 grand seems totally justified. As soon as they played with overdrive/distortion then, to me, they sounded like just another bunch of Les Pauls.
My Local shop has 4 of these guitars and you are absolutely right, once you play one you just cant go back to the very nice regular model Les Pauls. These are SO much better, but damn those prices are ridiculous!!!!
I’ve been watching video of Cheap Trick Live at Budokan, and I’m sure I’m not the first to make this observation, but I realized the Captain looks a lot like Rick Nielsen from that time (which is awesome)! He just needs a little cap and to start flicking picks at the crew after every riff. 😀
It would be good to see a Vid showcasing guitars showing the differences between the models. Like Gibson LP Tribute - Standard, Telecaster from Player - Ultra etc Would be great to see and hear the differences between the models. There are so many to choose from, and they are all great
Great solo coming in captain! My fave I have heard from you and most all are awesome! I do miss seeing you and chapters reviewing an amp or something tho. Pete’s bad ass too y’all are great keep on dudes! Now I’m getting back to the video cheers!
I just got this Guitar as a reward for passing my grade 5. I got V3 Washed Bourbon Burst, it looks and sounds beautiful. Its my favirote guitar along side my other Gibson Les Paul. EDIT: I am looking to get the V1 Antique burst for when I get Grade 6 (to go along side my V3).. Please reply..
World guitars at Stonehouse have been providing customers with professional photographs of the guitar you purchase on a USB stick for years. love your reviews, Danish Pete is the best,
Damn Pete.. a bit of Santana flavour there in the intro Jam. playing on point as always.. Captain's playing has improved over the last years.. I always enjoy the Anderton's guitar videos.
Sounds good boys....... beautiful guitars....... I have a 1988 Les Paul sunburst finish that's been in the closet or under the bed for most of those years......she looks gorgeous and sounds a lot like what you guys are up to today...... I paid $800.00 for it back then.....the finish has aged beautifully......
excellent playing! Thank you for not overdoing it with the overdrive, like Rob used to (no offense to Rob)... have you guys ever jammed with Mick Taylor and Neville on that other music store?
Pete's playing is just so captivating and out of this world. Every video he is in, he just blows me away. Such an inspiration and all round nice guy. Always liked him but I've been developing such a man crush recently #Gayforpotaytay.
When I bought my 59 anniversary I paced the streets of a German town for a week deciding if I should drop all that money on one, but the trouble is they are the real deal and when you hear an original 59 then you think uuumm well that's not bad but mine sounds just as good (yes blasphemy I know). Yes I did drop the money on one, do I regret it? Absolutely not.
Glenn Lilley Oh, and then we saw Pete Green when he arrived and later Mick Taylor. They were all brilliant in different ways. Mayall had a real skill in finding brilliant talent for sure. Had Peter Green no “gone off the rails” so badly I’m pretty sure he may well have been regarded as being at least as goos as Clapton , maybe better.
@@glennlilley8608 The written history has always been that he left to join Cream before the record came out and that a Cream rehearsal the Beano Les Paul was stolen.
I just acquired one of these beauties, a V2, and it's not my first high dollar guitar, but it's instantly got me thinking of selling all my others (except my Strat, though if I had to pick only one I'd have to pick this LP - something I thought I'd never say).
@@VaibhavMittalIndia The only word I can use to summarize it is "modern", though I don't care much for the term really. But you probably know how it's being used in the guitar industry these days. I have really long fingers but large necks aren't quite as good. I think the '59 is larger, I have a '58 reissue that's like a baseball bat compared to the V2. Yet the V2 is far from thin or narrow. Of all the guitars I've played, and I've played many, the V2 seems to most "neutral" to me. This includes some very high end PRS guitars, which until now I considered the standard for "just right" and "neutral" and "modern". I hope this helps you, but I hope you also understand asking how something feels on here is pretty tough to answer. My advice would be to feel one for yourself, you'll be glad you did regardless of whether it's as good for you as it is for me.
My gosh. Those are some amazing sounding axes! Beautiful too. Unfortunately, this is video is probably the closest I'll ever get to one. The good news is, the regular standards this year are fantastic too. I'll just have to for one of those. I think I'll live.
You want a 50th Anniversary 2010 Epi 1960 LP Std drop a SD Ant PAF in the neck leave the Burstbucker in the bridge all for under $1000 and you’re good to go...
Those Les Paul STDs are sounding great, way better than my Epiphone Les Paul STd, but not $6000 better that's for sure !??! All's I did too mine was switch it to 50's wiring by moving the cap to the other leg of the out and removing a wire, that's it and it sounds so close to this is unbelievable, almost because I have it and it is known to me and mine as the killer 😜
Oh yeah, these are very nice indeed!! They look and sound gorgeous. Great video. I particularly enjoyed Lee’s Hayseed Dixie version of Paradise City. That’s what he was going for, right?!
Nothing sounds like a Gibson Les Paul not even the ones with the very expensive 10 top you know which ones they are awesome sound I’m waiting on a ebony custom I’ll get it on the 27th can’t wait😜
I’ve watched probably hundreds of hours of Anderton’s TV, but these are some of the best sounding guitars I’ve ever heard you guys review.
They really stood out for us too... A great guitar really unlocks some magic! 🤘
@@andertons Better than the PRS modern eagle V??
@@kozadongre Any day!
I'm and I've been mostly a Strat guy for all of my musical life but I agree, these babies are something...
Ditto
Most people spend their lockdown watching entire series on Netflix, here I am watching videos of guitars I can't afford...
I prefer watching Anderton's 10 times to watching series, at least here I learn some licks and guitar related things!
Eliseo Caporale you need to check out peach guitar demos. That guitarist is amazing.
Yeah, but I've had this troubling insight that the reason I cant afford them is that I spend my days watching youtube.
Right, same as me , buddy! Ha! Ha!
So do I,my friend !🤘🏻😎🤘🏻

We always have time for some killer Les Pauls... Thanks for watching & glad you're enjoying the videos 🤘
You guys are keeping us all sane in a crazy world! Thank you and keep up the awesome videos!!
Glad you're enjoying the content... Plenty more on the way! 🤘
Told my other half my 60th birthday present was sorted. She said forward her the link. Great video. Real energy and pure joy. Thanks. Puts a smile on my face.
These Les Pauls are beautiful sounding...but that's because of the beautiful playing of you Lee and Pete. Thank you so much for all your passion 😉
Glad you enjoyed the video! 🤘
I enjoyed the video well enough but not enough to get in my knees and handy jib me way too a ❤️ emoji congratulations comment !??! Wtf !??!
aunt jenifer maybe you can get one too if you’re a nice troll
I bought an historic reissue in 1995 just shy of 5k. That works out at 50p a day 25 years old looks almost new sounds gorgeous

The Captain's reaction to the flame top on the V3 is possibly the best part of this video XD

Clapton's Beano Burst is a 59. It has got a double black humbucker in the bridge and a double white in the neck. It has 59 knobs too.
I am 60 later this year and the 60 LP is my favourite. A 60th Anniversary...mmmmmm
Played one of these for rhe first time yesterday......holy sh*t..I Damn near cried

My god...beautiful guitars. The intro jam is so nice.
Great solo coming in captain! My fave I have heard from you and most all are awesome! I do miss seeing you and chapters reviewing an amp or something tho. Pete’s bad ass too y’all are great keep on dudes! Now I’m getting back to the video cheers!
I just got this Guitar as a reward for passing my grade 5. I got V3 Washed Bourbon Burst, it looks and sounds beautiful. Its my favirote guitar along side my other Gibson Les Paul.
EDIT: I am looking to get the V1 Antique burst for when I get Grade 6 (to go along side my V3).. Please reply..
Might I ask what you will be getting upon completion of your grade 11?
@@Harvard_Fairway No idea, probably another Les Paul, but I don't think there is a grade 11
World guitars at Stonehouse have been providing customers with professional photographs of the guitar you purchase on a USB stick for years. love your reviews, Danish Pete is the best,
the orange lemon fade is a beauty I ordered one and I got it way cheaper then you could imagine ;)
Damn Pete.. a bit of Santana flavour there in the intro Jam. playing on point as always.. Captain's playing has improved over the last years.. I always enjoy the Anderton's guitar videos.
Sounds good boys....... beautiful guitars....... I have a 1988 Les Paul sunburst finish that's been in the closet or under the bed for most of those years......she looks gorgeous and sounds a lot like what you guys are up to today...... I paid $800.00 for it back then.....the finish has aged beautifully......
we're jammin!
good stuff.
both of you are amazing guitar players.
appreciate.
Now Lee and Pete are playing by looking at each other on the screen just like I have for the past 8 years.
Andertons and Gibson videos are what I look forward to!
I WANT the first one Lee is playing !!!!!!!!!!! No Clown Burst !!
excellent playing! Thank you for not overdoing it with the overdrive, like Rob used to (no offense to Rob)... have you guys ever jammed with Mick Taylor and Neville on that other music store?
Are these videos the absolute best improvising displays ever?
Pete's playing is just so captivating and out of this world. Every video he is in, he just blows me away. Such an inspiration and all round nice guy. Always liked him but I've been developing such a man crush recently #Gayforpotaytay.
love the spontaneous jam! those guitars really sings! great guitar! even great guitar players!
When I bought my 59 anniversary I paced the streets of a German town for a week deciding if I should drop all that money on one, but the trouble is they are the real deal and when you hear an original 59 then you think uuumm well that's not bad but mine sounds just as good (yes blasphemy I know). Yes I did drop the money on one, do I regret it? Absolutely not.
I just ordered one of these. I jope you are right!!
I saw Clapton play with The Bluesbreakers just after The Beano Album was released.
Glenn Lilley Well I watched him that’s for sure, near Luton.
Glenn Lilley Oh, and then we saw Pete Green when he arrived and later Mick Taylor. They were all brilliant in different ways. Mayall had a real skill in finding brilliant talent for sure. Had Peter Green no “gone off the rails” so badly I’m pretty sure he may well have been regarded as being at least as goos as Clapton , maybe better.
Glenn Lilley HaHa! Hard paper round in Beirut was it? Mmmmm ...
Glenn Lilley oh right. Certainly took it’s toll didn’t it?
@@glennlilley8608 The written history has always been that he left to join Cream before the record came out and that a Cream rehearsal the Beano Les Paul was stolen.
I just acquired one of these beauties, a V2, and it's not my first high dollar guitar, but it's instantly got me thinking of selling all my others (except my Strat, though if I had to pick only one I'd have to pick this LP - something I thought I'd never say).
Hey How does the V2 neck feel compared to a ‘59 shape ?
@@VaibhavMittalIndia The only word I can use to summarize it is "modern", though I don't care much for the term really. But you probably know how it's being used in the guitar industry these days. I have really long fingers but large necks aren't quite as good. I think the '59 is larger, I have a '58 reissue that's like a baseball bat compared to the V2. Yet the V2 is far from thin or narrow. Of all the guitars I've played, and I've played many, the V2 seems to most "neutral" to me. This includes some very high end PRS guitars, which until now I considered the standard for "just right" and "neutral" and "modern". I hope this helps you, but I hope you also understand asking how something feels on here is pretty tough to answer. My advice would be to feel one for yourself, you'll be glad you did regardless of whether it's as good for you as it is for me.
Love the vids and love the jams. Can't get enough. thanks gents.
Wow best Les Pauls I have heard!
My gosh. Those are some amazing sounding axes! Beautiful too. Unfortunately, this is video is probably the closest I'll ever get to one. The good news is, the regular standards this year are fantastic too. I'll just have to for one of those. I think I'll live.
Nice guitars! I like the low wind humbucker sound, as well as the rug in the room that Pete is playing in! I need those for my guitar room! Ha ha
A les paul having a warm sound like strat.. a dream .. price wise too :D
You want a 50th Anniversary 2010 Epi 1960 LP Std drop a SD Ant PAF in the neck leave the Burstbucker in the bridge all for under $1000 and you’re good to go...
Those Les Paul STDs are sounding great, way better than my Epiphone Les Paul STd, but not $6000 better that's for sure !??!
All's I did too mine was switch it to 50's wiring by moving the cap to the other leg of the out and removing a wire, that's it and it sounds so close to this is unbelievable, almost because I have it and it is known to me and mine as the killer 😜
Man still deciding whether to take the plunge on one of those custom shop 60s, or just get the standard... ahhhhh... they are so..... sweet...
So did you decide
Hope you guys are doing well!
You all have the best job on the planet ❗
I bought the v1. Love it..
Oh yeah, these are very nice indeed!! They look and sound gorgeous. Great video. I particularly enjoyed Lee’s Hayseed Dixie version of Paradise City. That’s what he was going for, right?!
Nothing sounds like a Gibson Les Paul not even the ones with the very expensive 10 top you know which ones they are awesome sound I’m waiting on a ebony custom I’ll get it on the 27th can’t wait😜
