- Today we're getting the shop's take on a beautiful 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard "Burst" - a beautiful subtly flamed top with perfect color, wonderfully playable, and an instrument that truly sings - we're quite taken by this guitar. One of the five legendary guitars that we brought back from Chicago recently!

The quality of the videos, the music, the guitars and the playing is top notch. id love to visit the store but im all the way in the UK. love it well done guys. lots of love to Jay and Trevor lovely people.
I love all the close ups showing the details of the guitar. It’s amazing how that guitar looks almost off the shelf new!
That and original
frets mean it probably was mostly a case queen. Considering its value I guess it’s understandable.
It is a fine one !
I paused the shot to locate the bridge...Unfortunately the bridge is starting to collapse. No surprise though.
Maaan that is THE burst for me. Perfect amount of red and beautiful top.
This is the cleanest '59I have ever seen. And I've seen a lot of them. It looks like it's sat in the case for 60 years
Agreed. It’s in remarkable condition considering it’s 62 years old. The tuning machine heads still look new. That is very rare for kluson tuners on a guitar that old.
The 59 burst is beautiful and the tone is incredible!!
Sounds like there’s a buzz in the speaker… shame otherwise great video!
Wow, that neck pickup sounds amazing!
It digs in like a mutha!
Beautiful guitar
That Legendary tone POPPING out on those double stops at 6:44 IS FREAKING BLISS!
Love getting to see the whole staff chime in. Great stuff.
Nice playing. Video got my attention toward end. This Burst looks pristine.
I started "fiddling" around with the guitar, the year this guitar was born ... Great axe. That amp kills ...
I think the playing with a bit of overdrive really showcases exactly what a PAF Les Paul is all about and why it is special.
A couple of mine have PAF clones, scatter-wound, low output pickups and they are my favorite guitars. They aren't 59s but they do a great job of replicating that tone.
Love the neck pickup sound on the bursts
Looked brand new.
The price is going to be astronomical.
The tone is gorgeous - wide, round, barking but clear as day and super responsive.
I really appreciate the effort put into these videos guys 👌
Yeaaaa man! Cool blues jam 😎! So fascinating to hear the history behind these guitar.s Beautiful instrument!!
Gorgeous top and what a tone!
One of the nicest looking and sounding ones i've ever seen!
A fantastic video for an incredible instrument. I’m beyond blown away.
Eff yeah!!! Fantastic burst and dude playing is making it sound great!! Nice.
Bonamassa food !!! Soooo good !!!
Very cool example - what a tone awesome sounds like a cross between 59 and 60.... really perfect Burst tone
If I ever become a millionaire my first stop is going to be Emerald City Guitars. Man I love the sound of these vintage guitars
Nice1..Emeral & thank u
Sweet...I have to say I have a 2019 50's HCS Standard that looks identical..nice wide subtle flame 8.4 lbs Man what a great job Gibson is doing Wish I could be around to see how it sounds in 50 years
I agree with you - Gibson has stepped their game up big time. I’ve recorded with an authentic ‘59 on two albums and recently bought a 2019 ‘59 reissue. Gibson really nailed the reissue. They’re so close in tone and appearance. The standards they’re producing are incredible as well - vintage look and feel with some modern character!
@@mikewilkinson694 Absolutely...hey lucky you I've owned a few old Strats and a 330 but not the Grail Very cool
I think I remember the poster that this guitar was on.
It was the centerfold and one of the guitar magazines.
I remember taking it out and hanging it on my wall.
Was it “Berenice”; Gary Rossingtons’ ‘59 Gibson Les Paul ( Lynyrd Skynyrd) with the Confederate flag in the background?
You Guys are amazing WOW !!!
Stellar tone and playing !
On sent que ce garçon a pris plaisir à jouer cette sublime Gibson 59
So cool...just awesome!!!
Beautiful guitar!
Karl, you look great for 60, bro! We all should be so fortunate lol!
It's all that clean living. Decent lighting helps too :)
Beautiful
I was born in 59...this is my grail....❤
Thank you so much
They were not made for shredding. Beautiful guitar. Special foresure. Great player as well. He makes it shine he’s one of your best testers. 8 lb LP wow. Less flame the better for me. I actually prefer 58s this is close to a 58 top. Nice grains in it.
Legend says that Joe Bonamassa had already purchased it before the shop even posted this video.
Thank you Love it ! please that was a tease we need part 2 from Tyler who is amazing ,where we seen the break down on The Gibson Les Paul Standard before that was amazing please !
_____________________________ Phew!! That beauty stopped my heart for a sec.
Great video! Love the tone, cheers
Thanks
It’s quite nice
Neverovatan zvuk...zao mi je sto nemam 3999...vredi svaki dinar ❤
Boom. Half million dollars. Maybe more.
money in the grave is useless - better spend it on the holy grail while we're still alive! what a stunning instrument.
Holy Grail 🤘🤘🤘
Historic Burst ❤️
Sweet axe!
I wonder if JB owns it yet?
Are you sure it's the end of Tush that has those tones? The outro lick on Tush is all slide, as is the solo. What you played sounds like the outro solo on La Grange.
" Commands" respect. Yes, even a few planks of wood glued together with some paint and metal can make a person lose thier minds.
Gorgeous guitar. Id love to know the string height on it.
Will you look at the 'sag' on that Tunematic?
If I hadn't seen it with me own eyes... etc.
...nice playing, who's it that's doin' the plunking again?
Great tone. Amp has a lot to do with it too.
Filson coat to go with the 59 Very nice!
Jesus, that guy can play.
I need a '59 burst.
Crazy clean...and, for a '59, really seems to have its own voice, especially in the bridge p'up. The neck p'up has bags of "It"!
just looked up burst serial this is not listed ??
THAT ONE LOOKS TO GOOD TO BE TRUE! THEYBWOULDNT HAVE IT OR BE SELLUNG IT IF IT WERE A REPRO, BUT SOME GUYS ARE GETTING GOOD AT MAKING THEM
Looks to be new tuners and knobs
oh my God!
Wonder who the owner was…,
Is thar vibrolux just cranked up for that last part of the video? Sounds dirty! I was pleasently suprised!
none of these seem to be available on your website
Damn... that's a ringer
This video was great up to 6:14 that sound is just nerve wrecking.
Lol,..the sound of Rock n Roll.
Quick question; the new Les Paul Standard 50's tries to Replicate this 1959 era. They give 2 different options for pickups; the burstbuckers and the 57 pickups. Most people say the 57s are too tinny and belong in the semi hallows-335s.
In your option, which one of those 2 would get in the ballpark as this guitar and which ones come stock in this beautiful guitar you guys are showcasing in this video?
Neither. Gibson pickups since the 80's are just not the same.
Nice but why that top distracts me is a bummer. I know, certain angles it's better but straight on it looks like it was made on a Monday or something ;)
It was LaGrange that had the pinch harmonics, not Tush.
You're absolutely right! I can't believe I got those mixed up. Getting old and forgetful, I guess :)
La Grange is a strat. Most folks don't know that.
WOW UPON FURTHER REVEIW LOL SHESSSS REAALLL ALRIGHTTTT LOL
WHAT A BEATYYYYYYYYYY! IM GONNA GET ME ONE SOMEHOW SOMEWAY!
the 58 is the Holy Grail any day of the week
Collectively, the actual market says you are wrong.
But a person's (your) favorite is all that matters.
i would have prevered it had Karl van der Velden played and demoed this guitar....:-)
Glad to see Karl on here again.
What amp are we listening to?
I just died a thousand deaths. I don’t know what to say. I just died a thousand deaths.
The wood really melts into the snake oil
they (the 59's) all sound great, yet none sound alike.... the mystery of wood/age/player, ETC.
Lots of color left on this one
I wonder where Billy Gibbons keeps his '59 'Pearly Gates' these days.
savely in it's case......:-)
How much?
Hook it up w a BOGO on this and I might be in!
Why can't Gibson atleast manufacturer custom buckers for sale by them selves or put a version like them in standards? That way we get closer to that sound. Which is what we all are going for with a 59 style les paul. I have a standard 50s with burstbuckers. They sound no where near like that no matter what you do. Its lame if you ask me. But I hear some custom buckers sounding like that. Funny fender can make even a 900$ guitar that has a chance of sounding close to a real 50s model. And Gibson can't even do it for 2499$. And if you get a hand select top like I did. Its about 3200$ after taxes and shipping. Yay me. Now I gotta buy 500$ pickups on top of that to get it to do what I want. Thanks Gibson! I think I'll stick to my vintage acoustics and only buy vintage Gibson still. Every time I give them a chance on modern gear. They let me down.
I just bought a standard 50 with burst buckers that sounds incredible.my top is almost identical to this one.i can honestly say I've never heard any pickups that sound as good as the ones on my new lp and I can assure you that any tiny fraction of a tone difference would not be worth half a million.hell even the 490's in my new sg sound amazing.i own a lot of gibsons 90's ,early 00's , and 2010's and I can say that this year's models that I've purchased just sound better than anything else I've ever owned.some guitars will always sound and play better than others. now I will say that Gibson neck bindings have gotten a little sloppy like on my new sg but it sounds and plays too good to send back and risk getting something that I don't enjoy playing so I'll just deal with it nothings perfect.
@@johndutton5881 the burst buckers are not bad pickups. They just don't do those overtones or snarl like a tele on steroids. They sound like a straight forward high end humbucker. Mines top and back looks exactly like a custom shop 59. I searched for 2 years and finally found one. Its not a bad example. I promise if you play custom buckers they sound more like the guitar in this video. Can I get great sounds out of them yes. But they don't do that. Especially the way it snarls on the pitch harmonics.
@@johndutton5881 I'm prob going to buy the cream t whisker bucker pickups since they are laser scanned and exact copies of pearly gates.
@@jacobm7421 Hey that's cool WCR....Bare Knuckles...Wizz Premium... Doyle coils Tons of really good winders out there Hell SD Antiquities The pickups are the only thing I am considering changing
@@paulcowart3174 I bought a 55 tele antiquity once its still in my main tele. I'm not real fond of it but it's still better than the stock pickup. Kinda wanna try lollars. I have no casters in my back up tele.
Those peoples are explaining you and are trying to convince us that this piece of wood, because that is exactly what it is has a value of 250 to 300 thousand of dollars. The guy with the leather apron and the tools behind him is the cherry on the cake! on an acoustic or classical guitar i might be convinced by high price, the instrument stand on its own and the craftsmanship is unique, the carving of the wood, the gluing, the type of wood etc… but an electric guitar, where is the sound coming from, the guitar, the fender amp or a combination of both?
It is a common mistake (if I may say so) to ask the "why" question. You neither pay for the wood nor the craftmanship. You pay for what the world of collectors have turned these guitars into. Look at (specific) vintage cars, look at (specific) Rolex watches - same pattern. A $100k Rolex watch does nothing but tell you the time.... and that less precise than a $50 Quartz watch. Market value.....
It’s ok.
It’s the player, not the instrument. Nice playing.
Seems like a ton of 59' coming up out of nowhere?
I'm told that there are more 1950s Les Pauls accounted for than were made. :O)
Some forger out there is having the time of his life.
Lots of great sounds out there, but to me - a Gibson into pretty much any blackface Fender is a sure bet.
I'd be afraid to let any natural lighting hit that guitar....
Yowza
7:43 that is the NECK pickup, folks. This right here is why modern Gibsons suck.
I've tried to get my les paul traditional to have a bright neck position sound in this ballpark and i think it's impossible. I've wired it 50s style, pio caps best pots ya can get besides vintage central labs.
I had to LP Trads. 57 classics in the neck were too muddy not matter how I set the heights or amp settings. I replaced them with Bareeknuckle Mules and it brightened up. I also have an SG 61 Standard, the neck pick up is perfect. I recently got a new LP Classic with the coil splits etc. That guitar has a nice bright neck pick up tone more like the SG. The Classic is definately my favourite current production Les Paul.
@@dalenixon1947 I was digging the Stormy Monday's as well for mine
I get a very similar tone out of my Bridge pickup, so it doesn't bother me. All I use is either the bridge only or the middle position, blended with 50% on the neck and 100% on the bridge. Makes for a glorious tone also.
@@stricknine8623 Cool....yeah lots of magic in the mix there I run a lot of treble on the amp so tone controls important for me as well
I get this is a piece of history, but just think, when Page etc played them and made them famous, the guitar was only 15 years old (roughly) - so that'd be like you doing yourself a favour, saving a ton and buying a 2005 LP 🙂
The problem is that you can never get the same guitar your hero played. If you get the same year and model then it’s decades older by now but if you get a newer guitar then it’s not the same guitar to begin with.
It’s player, not the instrument. Nice playing.
If there's only 640 1958-59 Les Paul standard made how does every Rock Star, studio guy, recording engineer and blues lawyer has not one or two 1959 Les Paul standard's but multiple different vintage 1959 Les Paul standard's !?
🤣
🤷♀️
Not true. Joe Bonamassa owns 639 of them.
@Hugh Jorgan what's not true !? It's seems that what you said is further from the truth than what I said.
I think most of those are fake. I think that the one in the video is fake
😂 Hi@@thatsmrharley2u2.
You are wrong. Joe has 15 Les Paul burst. He says he owns 550 vintage guitars though.
@@auntjenifer7774Sarcasm, Jen. But whatever.
It’s alright.😆
59's are great, but not worth the money. You can get a similar sound a lot cheaper with today's Les Pauls and replacement pickups.
Now give that thing a proper setup and let Matt Pike have a go.
what's the chance it's a fake?
You know Gibson can completely replicate these guitars almost perfectly. I just bought a 50's standard that looks nearly identical to this one and sounds as good if not better and it cost me 2500.only a complete idiot would pay half a million dollars for this.remember Gibson stopped making these because they couldn't sell them.if you really need to waste money just get one from the custom shop for 10000 grand they'll even beat it up and make it look old.
Agreed yes my 2019 Burst looks almost identical and a great 8.4 lbs
Have you ever played a real burst?
@@TheBarroomHero321 let me answer that for you. No he hasn’t
