Joey plugged in this incredibly clean 1958 Gibson Les Paul Goldtop and immediately the pure PAF tone started pouring from the amp. This guitar has ver minor checking, all original finish and hardware. There are many burst era Les Paul that stand above the rest, this is one of them!
We plugged this guitar into a 1952 Fender Deluxe www.cartervinta...
We mic'd the amp with a Cascade Fat Head and the room with a MV88 mic by Shure. No eq'ing was done in post, we wanted it to sound like you were sitting in the room hearing this for yourself. Listen with high quality headphones for the full effect!

Somebody here questioning whether it's a good demo of this guitar and amp. Open your ears and soak it up. This is as good as it gets. Breath taking.
It sure is breathtaking!!! I can't seem to stop listening to it... What a treasure!!! ❤🎸❤
I would love to sit in that seat and play that guitar through that amp. What a joy.
Wow, such an epic tone!! This is the closest thing I've heard to tonal perfection in a long time - the guitar, amp, Joey's playing, the audio quality...it's all right there. Awesome job!! If I ever win the lottery, I'm catching the next flight to Nashville!!
Joey's reaction at 3:21 says it all...pretty sure he's thinking, "If only I had $135K lying around..."
Joey sounds like this everytime he plays his own rig. The amp he is playing on is nothing special. And he gets the same tone out of his own Les Paul. Its how he plays. He is a musical genius.
So few Les Paul' demo's without ridiculous distortion. Thanks for letting us actually hear what the guitar sounds like. It sounds fantastic. Well done.
2:54 til the end. That is what classic PAF tone is all about to me. Amazing clarity with subtle overtones and bloom. Echoes of ZZ Top's first album, Beano, live cream, At Fillmore East, etc. Thank you for the outstanding video. Made my morning.
agree 100%
Wow! I just wanted to listen to fine vintage instruments and now I'm sitting here in tears weeping my heart out! You are a master Joey!
I keep coming back to this video. Which is not something you can say about many UA-cam guitar demonstrations… Such amazing and inspiring playing. Looove the gospel vibe 🙌.
Joey is just phenomenal, and the fact that he always play open tuning, adds difficulties but a very different outcome in terms of sound, intonation and sustain. Really one of today's masters. Thanks for the video and the amazing goldie.
So good! The playing was more than stellar and this is such a great demo of what PAF's are all about. I wish I could afford the guitar but thank you Carter Vintage for introducing me to Joey Landreth and for the great demo’s.
Joey's playing is so good and tasteful - and that's what really counts.
Perfect ,plug in and go. What a beauteous set up.
This sounds like heaven...
just beautiful
Beautiful touch and chops...
that 60fps makes all the difference in quality. great video.
Beautiful playing young man.......there is hope for world. ....you....
Wow what a player. Perfect demo.
How Great the sound and player!
Thank you for these and many others. Just a killer demo.
Absolutely beautiful
great great sound ....his touch is amazing
This isn't a guitar demo. This is music...
Lol........... He's playing blues with some jazz inflections, not fucking conservatory jazz. Gettefuckouttahere
The implication here seems to be that the Les Paul doesn't have subtleties of its own to show when playing subtle music. Suffice to say that I disagree on an astronomical scale.
Probably the greatest Les Paul tone of all time came from a certain namesake of yours on "Just Got Back From Baby's", 1971 - through a Fender amp, just like here. Go check out how of much of a Nugentian stadium rocker that was, if you have to.
You are a tool.
"Gibbons," between that gorgeous Fiddy-eight, actual music being played, the little tweed Fender, and that guy's hands, everything you need to know about vintage Lesters and PAF's is right there. Right, there. The Reverend would heartily approve of this demo, I have no doubt. To characterize this as "(a) really weak demo" is to out yourself as having cloth ears. Punch play at 2:15. Take notes. Get back to us when you get it.
This makes me want a Les Paul!
Very, very nice in every aspect!
I can't believe how seamlessly he switches back and forth from using a pick to fingerpicking. You have to pay attention or you miss it.
Boy can certainly play! Nice tone man!
Gotta love story telling with a guitar.
beautiful, brilliant.
How Great Thou Art.
Joey Landreth sounds great on every guitar and amp that I’ve heard so far. His taste, tone and feel is ridiculous.
Flat out fine playing and video.
Por fin escucho un guitarrista actual que dice algo con la guitarra, y con un tono grandioso!!!
God, how great thou art ... worship on a Les Paul ...
Absolutely fucking beautiful
Great playing
Omg that was so awesome
thanks a million
great sound...and great demo.... good guitarist :)
Please get Joey back to play some more!
hooooooly fuckin moses. also massive hats off to the production crew for all these videos, your dedication to representing the true tone of the guitars and the amps in the room with a minimum of fuckery is VERY appreciated. these clips always sound top drawer.
His playing always makes me tear up for some reason 😂
Because it’s incredible
OMG that tone.. Jesus Christ...
That's how to demo a classic guitar. He lets the tone shine through rather than endlessly widdles where the pick noise dominates
He's got a mantoe!!
is he playing "How Great Thou Art"?
Damn... that was tasty. 👍🏼🎸
That's how to do it 👍
That is indeed how you should demo a fine guitar. Guitar + Fine Amp + Tastful player. PERIOD. Well done. I'd still never pay $135,000 for a fucking guitar.
You can get REALLY close to that sound with the new Gibby reissues and Martin models for around $5k.
I'll wait for black friday discount on this guitar!
BiBaBuBeBo GurrGurr haha....yea its a smokin deal at only $80k!
LOL! :)
Wow!
As if we're here to buy that guitar LOOOLLLL
Anyone know the tuning on this?
what is the tune joey is playing 2:20 and around ? Thanks
Yeah. I'm at a loss for words.
this guitar same age as me! sounds awesome! what month did this come off the line?
I wonder what size those strings are. They look really thick.
Anyone make out the price on the hang tag?
The stuff he is playing at the intro is called what exactly? Is there a specific genre for this beautifulness
Gospel. "How Great Thou Art" It's a very old hymn and well known, and can be played in all types of ways. The melody & progression is very beautiful to learn even if you're not someone who goes to church.
Where are the robot tuners? JK! Very nice guitar.
Damn....
What pickups are those?
Extremely tasty and subtle playing.
Such a welcome contrast from the thousands of "G D A - shaking the neck while the chord rings" guitar demos on YT.
Yeah the neck shake has me completely puzzled,i have just picked up the guitar after a 25 year layoff and the bullshit I'm seeing and hearing is mind boggling.
I was thinking the same thing. Lol . Why all the trying to shake the neck thing? It just looks dumb. This guy here is awesome 👌
Yep, hate that shaky neck thing
that is how you demo a fine vintage guitar
He's such a fine player and nice guy as well!
Pasta Mia Eh?! What are you on about?
You can play anything on anything. You do realise Les Paul was a jazz player... Playing Les Paul's? They were originally designed for Jazz!
I don't think you would find many people playing metal on a 58/59/60... Apart from Kirk Hammett!
All the best and Merry Christmas!
Gibbons the les pauls were referred to as fretless wonders fir there ease at doing fast runs up and down the neck,they sucked for rock the first few production yrs, jimmy page's #2, was only a keeper for him after a refret they suck for bends,and sales tanked,thus they were discontinued in late '60,rockets in mid sixties loved only after most got a refret,uffda

I have recently completed a transcription of what Joey is playing here. It is available for free and a link to it can be found by searching UA-cam for 'Joey Landreth inspired improvisation'.
Just as an update on my original comment I have also recently posted a free transcription of the 1955 Stratocaster demo Joey did at the same time as this one.
Thank you for posting all of these wonderful clips of Joey and your amazing guitars!
Thanks for taking the time to do that.
No problem. I was so inspired when I first heard this clip that I had to work it out. I figured that some other people might also be interested in what Joey was playing. Thanks for the comment.
Matthew Mikkelsen Salute you for doing this and sharing ... I was inspired too but no way I could have figured it out.. awesome... now if you could only do his other demos, my joy would be complete (especially the LP Junior demo).. thanks!
Thanks for the comment John. Funny you should mention the other demos as I did work out a couple of others at the same time I did this one. The 1955 Strat demo I worked out because it has some amazing fretting behind the slide ideas and I also transcribed the 1961 SG demo. I might look into posting a link to those soon as well.
Matthew Mikkelsen So if you sell one of these can you just about take the rest of the year off!??
I really like his pedal board.
He borrowed it from Bonamassa.......
:-) Funny thing is, that Joey actually is a big pedal nerd...
I just found this treasure. My Daddy went to heaven about a month ago. I so wish I could show him this jewel. Maybe somehow I will learn how to play " How great thou art" on his '58 before I see him again. ❤❤❤
Get after it!
The tone is killer. As close to perfect in my mind. Slight breakup yet mostly clean and super dynamic.
At last, someone demonstrating the guitar and its tonal abilities .Not someone showing off with maximum distortion showing us nothing of the guitars' qualities. 'tis in my humble opinion the perfect tone. Thank you very much.
Oh so you saw Greg Crotch make a fool of himself
With constant “hey look at me I’m amazing” nonstop noodling with max distortion
A little bit of restraint...how refreshing ..and tasty
"How Great Thou Art"
I Heard In There... Joey Is One Of A Kind
Yessir. The greatest hymn God ever gave us, to remind us just WHO HE IS.
@@Tonetwisters touches home!
Tonetwisters / so now god is a composer?!?? Joey is a great musician, playing manmade music. Down to earth, real music.
Indeed....
J.R. Arnolli ...God Almighty...THE Creator ....gave us the abilities......music is good, when the intention is honest.....yeah, God gave us all of that....
If it wasn't for this video I would never have discovered The Bros. Landreth. Truly amazing musicians.
I’ve been listening to Joey since they debuted their first album and my gf and I saw them live at a restaurant in a Saskatchewan town of 40 people. I believe he’s got the best tone of any guitarist I’ve ever heard, and between his playing and his voice… I’m glad more people are getting to enjoy him. There is literally no mood his music doesn’t suit.
How Great thou art? Nothing like gospel chords for solo guitar!
I didn't know Alexander Gustafsson played guitar. What can't this dude do?
I can’t help but notice that nobody asked how much for the guitar……
I know I'm late, but I don't care. Amazing, Joey... Just amazing. Cheers mate
HOLY SHIT. who is this guy. his playing is sooooo delicious
Joey Landreth from The Bros Landreth and a solo career. Look him up, he's a monster player, singer and an incredibly nice guy!
Absolutely right!!!
Can you please tell me what kind of great Amp is it?
Incredibly inspired playing idd... Do you know if this is played in regular tuning ? Sounds like an open E tuning to me. Beautiful anyway...
Marc Ludemann Fender wide panel deluxe. Either a 5B3 or 5C3. Probably a '53 or '54. Outstanding amps.
If you haven't yet watch that pedal show with Joey ...its great!
Joey Landreth along with JD Simo and Matt Schofield are 3 of my favourites players nowadays. Taste tone touch and timing in spades.
Sounds a bit like How Great Thou Art in the beginning. Wonderful.
NYC LP Player I know it was so beautiful
10 seconds in and I'm transported to a guitar store somewhere in the late 50's. Perfect tone. The PAF sound.
What an incredibly great sounding guitar and amp rig, and what a great use of the two pieces! That's about as down-to-earth, organic as good guitar playing gets, and very appropriate for these instruments!! Wow.
I come back to this video at least once every other week. This skill, tone, and audio capture demonstrated here is just fantastic. The guitar and amp should have been sold as a mandatory set.
Absolute Heavenly tone. As God would have it.
I think he’s doing all that in open E too.
Oh lovely tone.. amazing dude
pretty cool guitar! But let's be honest - Joey will make sound great even my cheap LP copy)
That was the way to demo an old guitar, tasty playing through a good sounding amp without a word being uttered. The guitar said everything that I needed to hear! Those PU's were darn near perfect - very clear and balanced and sounded great through that Tweed. Yep, very cool!
Not actually a LP Standard. Any '50s Goldtop is a 'Les Paul Model' guitar, the Sunburst Standard came around later in 1958 (the majority of '58s were PAF goldtops I'm sure I read.)
Again I cant tell the sonic difference from a custom shop Les Paul - as the owner of a 2017 Custom Shop Les Paul, a good one is a good one, regardless of the year.
What a beautiful expression on on this beautiful 58 gold top
"How great I am" was the first melody. Such an Iconic guitar and a very nice sample of great talent. Cheers
See, here’s the thing; I could buy the guitar (actually probably couldn’t) but I just can’t play like that. Mr. Landreth is a very fine player.
I am starting to wonder if Joey has a christian background. This is How Great Thou Art. Incredible playing
Felipe Gutierrez I think he does.
oh boy, here we go..Its because he's christian he's so good..Anything to justify Jesus.
Amen brother
Not exactly uncommon in the god fearing US (even though he’s Canadian)
@Nope It's amazing how easily people are triggered these days.
Saw Joey live at Rockwood Music Hall in NYC last Friday night...I was in the front row, pretty much directly in front of his amps...a Deluxe and a Two Rock...such an amazing tone and a fantastic player. His whole band is great too! They put out a lot of sound for a 3 piece!
Love the tone , why can't Gibson build them like this today!!!
Tone like that is worth skipping a couple mortgage payments.
What AMP are you using for this video I can't tell what Amp it is ???? Plz help
This man really tuned his A sting to a B..absolutely cracked for fingerstyle in key of E
I've yet to watch a Joey Landreth video that wasn't world class and this one is no exception.
Who needs a ‘59 when you can have ‘58? 👌🏻🕶🖖🏻
Joey's playing stunning and so clean and understated! Kudos to the video and sound crew as well. Excellent production.
I hear Amazing grace hidden in there ... Nice
