Hello! for those distraught over aging of new instruments: there are still available in huge numbers beautifully made un-aged great sounding and playing Gibson guitars! Such great news as well: you will not be trifled with comments from those with other preferences on those unboxing videos.
Marketing is fascinating isn’t it? The whole psychology of wish fulfilment, selling mojo, not overdoing it so that the customer doesn’t feel too nouveau, using some guy’s name to out custom shop the custom shop... it is all so removed from simply learning an instrument and getting good.
Yeah right...you can probably get worn out frets too lol At least the guy has done his research
*authentic fake ageing
@@marklewis7484 Must have been what Mark was on about.
What does learning an instrument have to do with a Gibson les Paul custom??
@@srh361 There’s a difference between learner and beginner.
I don’t buy blue jeans with holes in the knees. As a carpenter, I do just fine wearing them out myself.
same old copy and paste comment, you really think regular musicians are playing these? nope. these are literally art pieces
No one cares.
Good for you 👍
U obviously haven't played one one these guitars
The relic is only a small part of the guitar
The build quality is fantastic and the way they play and sound is out of this world
Zeurpiet
Watching unboxing videos like this one is probably the closest I’ll ever come to unwrapping a Gibson Custom Shop guitar myself
😂🤣😂You don't realise how lucky you are.
Wow what a birthday present that I can watch this in the morning with mu coffee! Would be even better if you sent one over 😁
It's my birthday Thursday and I'll be 60, I think I should be top of the queue for the free giveaway.😁
Why not! Peach is rich enough to.
Love Gibson Custom but I simply cannot justify the massive increase of aging when the guitar is built the exact way.
Looks like Murphy has finally watched the DrNitro videos to see how to do the checking properly by using a fridge rather than a razorblade.
Yeah okay, because Murphy is just a hack that doesn't know what he's doing 🙄
@@vegashdrider , I live in a small town 2 hours from any "real" guitar shops, so I can't very easily check them out in person. Nor do I have $9,000 handy. But it would seem to me that ageing the lacquer as Fender has been doing, would be the best way. And they are charging more. But I'm not criticizing Murphy or Gibson; I'm sure the profits show they've been doing something right -:)
What a great unboxing. My heart leapt every time you opened a case!
Why are all the LP backs so dark ? I don't remember the real ones having such dark stained Mahogany.. weird. Still, superb guitars.. !!
Some things you can't replicate or maybe the team dropped the ball on that but tips look good
i noticed that too. i kinda prefer it tho! looks nicer
They’re using the old school aniline dies that they used on bursts back on the day. It will fade into the proper color over time. It’s very UV sensitive, that’s also why the tops faded so so much in 58-59
I bought a GibsonLes Paul from peach because they spent time in putting up photos of the actual guitars for sale on their website , due to lockdown we cant visit the shop , lots of other shops didn't bother taking pictures and are just shipping boxes
It's essential for me. I have to see photos of the actual guitar I'm getting.
I'm not sure why, but old looking Gibsons just don't look good to me, old Fenders do, but I think Gibson guitars look best when they're pristine. Not that it matters, because they've gone fully insane with the pricing it means it's not something I'll have to worry about!
I personally would never buy a aged or relic guitar but those look incredible, I just love a new mint guitar and age it myself, I have exactly one chip on my 60 LP but it's my chip, and my story.
Gibson Guitars are way better than PRS. Peach Guitars has got to be the best guitar shop in the UK.
Those Murphy Painted look the money! Like an antique violin finish. I’m usually not a relic fan, but those look mint. My relics are done at the local pubs by local musicians then sold to me for a used guitar price!
It's like watching a Joe Bonamassa load in. 🤣❤️
🤣 facts
The 335 is stunning
YES. Merry Christmas from Gibson Guitars 🤘🎸
The sounds of the unboxing, the latches flipping, does nothing to help me overcome gear acquisition syndrome, guys. 🤤
So sorry to say, it’s difficult to get onboard with the ageing. It would be spectacular to have the artistry dedicated to a stunning example of an original guitar; ready for it’s life as the originals were intended to live their lives and grow with an owner and subsequent legacy....
It’s a vibe thing, man.
i agree. guitar and man growing old together. the guitar increase's in value, me, well i get old and fall apart.
@@christopher-miles I understand some do like artificially aged guitars. To me, its just like an authenticity issue. I just don't like it and would not purchase them. A real oldie guitar has a soul, sometimes more than one. They have been living through their various owners. The smell, or rather the scent is the correct one for an aged instrument. No matter what they do with the "reliced" the scent is that of a new guitar. It is just chemistry to me.
@@p6x2 In my opinion: I believe they can/are inspiring. It’s just another form of expression.
...if it’s not your thing, that’s cool too.
Just make music, man. Doesn’t matter how. Some have an advantage, doe.
Peace!
@@christopher-miles Then just buy a used guitar that has been ill treated and dragged behind the car!
My wife and I Love peach guitars unboxing..
Me , myself and I also enjoy these unboxing videos..
There is something oddly satisfying about the sounds of the opening of the boxes and cases and the handling of each guitar...is that wrong? :)
Gibson sent this guy all their qc returns for repaint and slap extra price on them as "relic" versions.
S T , Gibson are selling seconds and demo's on Reverb, which I think is a good idea. Your comment is funny but would make sense.
I must admit these look wonderful.
What's the guitar at 29 mins? Sounds like you are describing the 59 reissue VOS but then you are saying it's handpicked and slightly more expensive than standard. Details please. I'm interested.
Those two pallets alone are worth more than a house and probably two vehicles. Just saying , y'all enjoy your day hello from Texas.😷😎🤓🤠👍🤠👍
I’m 19:30 into the video and we only seen a handle full of guitars. I hope we see them all by the end of the video
So many people always have little smart ass comments to make about Gibson or their aging process! If you don’t like Gibson or aged guitars, DON’T BUY ONE!! Plain and simple! Who gives a crap about your negative opinion?! Even with Gibson’s prices. PRS and Fender can charge $3k for a guitar and that’s fine but God forbid Gibson do it!!
That’s some stunning craftsmanship.
Can't wait to see these.
I like these videos a lot, but mauve would be good moving the guitar less when taking them out of the box, the camera would focus better and you can get a better idea as the viewer. Cheers!
The left-handed guitar had the correct top carve near the switch and below the guard unlike the right-hand ones.
What tickles me is the aged cases. My guitars hang on the wall and I have half a room full of cases. I have road cases for gigs. I've spent years trying to keep them clean...And now I realize I should have left them in the Florida sun and mold!
Great video! I’m so excited for my lefty USA Casino to arrive from you guys x
Love that lefty!
What is the fascination with cosmetics..... I want a Paul that sounds and plays like a 59. I can beat the hell out of it myself lol.....just a little green eyed envy I'd love to own one
Beautiful.
OMG they're pure pieces of an art!
I bought a cherry red colored Les Paul standard back in 1990 which has a very distinctive flame top and it has a stamp on back of the headstock that says 'Custom shop edition' but I'm not convinced it is.
The guitar came with the same case that the Les Paul's in this video come with but there was no documentation proving it was a Custom Shop edition that's why I'm doubtful . It's very lightweight compared to other Les Paul standards and has unreal tone . I bought a black LP and it's considerably heavier and doesn't sound nearly as good.
I just got a 2021 Gibson 58' MLA Burbon Burst (Ultra Light) yesterday. Amazingly light and a perfect setup, right out of the box. One of the best guitars I've ever had the privilege of playing.
I am not in love with the guitar case. It just doesn't seem very sturdy or well built. Really perplexing considering the price of what its suppose to protect.
My 2020 Gibson LP Goldtop STD and Heritage H150 have much better, more sturdy cases.
When I first took it out of the box, the guitar was actually moving slightly inside the case. I cringe thinking it shipped that way.
I opened it up and there's a little pink pillow under the headstock. I took that and put it on top of the guitar bridge and that seemed to remedy most of the moving.
There seems to be way too much wiggle room for the guitar, vertically (up and down?) Putting the pillow on top gave it a bit more support.
Maybe that pillow is supposed to be on the base of the guitar. It didn't ship that way.
And no trust rod wrench/tool to be found.
Every Gibson I've purchased the past 15 years has had a truss rod wrench. Are they really shipping custom shops like this? My Goldtop came with a really nice tool AND a strap.
I know it seems a little petty but I thought that was one if the perks of getting a guitar like a Custom Shop. The fine details...even the case.
I'm probably going to end up getting an aftermarket case. Carrying this thing just doesn't instill a ton if confidence.
Just thought I'd share, wondering if anyone else had the same experience.
Don't think I specified....its a Les Paul 58'.
So I believe there was SUPPOSED to be a small, round, cushion (I'm seeing it in this video and pics of the case online). That is supposed to be placed on top of the body when closing the lid. Which keeps the guitar secure in the case. Mine did not come with that🤨. Contacting the dealer...
£11,700!! although they are beautiful ... I think murphy is taking the mick... 😳
Hmmm new car or guitar
IKR? :) A fool and his money....
@@paulcowart3174 guitar all day long 😂
6:22 - A-hole did his own relic job on top of the Murphy Lab’s work on that poor case key….LMFAO.
7:04 - “Hey Luke, besides the date, I’m an A-Hole and won’t pick up the key I dropped. Make sure you get it later….”
Hey guys... Why don't you have 2 people on these incoming guitar videos. If there was another guy unboxing the next guitar, while showing the current guitar, we wouldn't have to wait and watch the unboxing. It's boring. The guy unboxing can just hand the next guitar to him right when he's done with the previous and your video would be a bit quicker.
you can just skip a few seconds ahead
@@whatisthis__95 No thanks...
I love these videos.
Man...that 355 😍
i really enjoy these. i'll probably choose a pristine one just for the sake of the lower price. BUT i wish people that are against aging would take their hate somewhere else. it's for people that love the feel of vintage guitars. when you pick up a guitar that has been well used and beat up, it carries a different energy.
It’s all just virtue signalling... if there was no demand, fender and Gibson wouldn’t b doing it. Think about it, this is both Gibson and fenders opportunity to own this market... who wants a roadworn Ibanez ? Shecter? If people don’t like it then they don’t have to buy them but someone’s buying them or fender and Gibson wouldn’t b getting so into this. I love them btw... not exactly on the cheap side but it’s something to gas over ...
Absolutely stunning amazing guitars
Somehow this feels like those humvees cruising around LA with sprayed on mud
Amazing creations !!
Can't imagine the price
Price is not for me, but these guitars are amazing. Only a Gibson is good enough. Cheers, from Bordeaux 🍷🎸🎶
Biggest thing I noticed on video was the pickup rings...
How much did you say these are ?
Why are the pick up rings an entirely different colour to the rest of the binding and plastics?
Brilliant white and creme don't mix
Absolutely outrageous pricing!
The aged cases look authentic until you open it up. It's brand new inside. I have a 2016 R8 aged and the case is nicely aged outside AND inside.
Lovely, do they offer all the models in the Murphy Lab collection as lefties ?
Nice! Murphy is brilliant. I wonder what he does with the the pickups because every one I’ve heard has been fantastic
He does nothing with the pickups.
all the hate for aged guitars on here! they are incredible instruments that look absolutely stunning, the ageing is perfect, the choice of woods is perfect, lovely dark finger boards, as close as you will ever get to the guitars our hero’s played. A brand new looking 59? no thanks! let’s face it anyone who could actually afford one of these is very unlikely to be playing it enough to inflict any age, character or play wear, plus you don’t wear big enough belt buckles when your in a suit everyday.
Man,I hope these are all selling...
It’s March!
Real question, are these just Gibson standards that are aged? Are they custom shop? I'm considering grabbing a 335 but if I'm just paying for the aging then the extra 2.5k is a little rediculous(even though Tom Murphy is a legend, sorry Tom)
I hoped I would hear one to see if their worth the money
When you own a real vintage or an old guitar you know the story of the marks even sometimes the story of the guitarist if you are not the first owner. That's what is exciting to feel the years and imagine all this life. What is the point to own a artificially aged guitar with no soul, no life .
Wow I tried a real dot neck refin 1961 335 last week ( refinished by Murphy) that wasn’t much more expensive than the one here. Strange
Oh yeah
Do these have genuine mother of Pearl trapezoid inlays?
I notice that one of the Les Paul's has a Switch tip missing...if I did that to my Vintage V100 would it be worth Six Grand?
They ship it without the tip installed (it’s in the case), as they usually break during transport.
So is light aging the same as VOS??
Love these unboxing videos but not so much the Gibson Les Pauls. Once you have seen one they are the same.At least Fender,PRS,Gretch,Reverend etc are always changing their models.
Those are some beauties
The 355 at 23:00 😮
Best yet👍shame that 95% of musicians will never own stuff like this🤔all you doctors & dentists new stock @peach available😔
probably more than 95%
99.9%
Don't forget the lawyers, agents and professional musicians. Most of us will have to settle for a Epiphone or a copy of a Les Paul style guitar. Also professional guitar collectors.
I don't doubt these guitars will sound good, but sorry to say.. I hate the old " fake age, pre beaten up" thing... its just that" fake and pre beaten up.... more money than sense.... jeez
Screwed on the resale years from now cause won't be trending
It’s nuts to say that an “overly flamed” top is not authentic or like a PRS. Real vintage Les Pauls were all over the place with flame and grain (and mineral streak imperfections). The BEST ones always have more flame (looks wise). PRS is different and flames are more defined because of how they stain the tops (darker stains sanded back).
I want that '61 cherry es-335 🍒
Oh no!!! Fender guitars have something special with the added mojo of aging. But Gibson guitars look like $ht.
The light aging looks cool.
Should be some high end axes in this lot.
I get why weight is be a issue if you are playing the LP onstage but these guys saying light LP's sound better are just wrong.
Me and a few other guitarist's i know have played, owned or still own LP's that weigh 10lbs(4.53Kg) or more that sound monsterous!
My 60' weighs 10.2lbs(4.26Kg) and is my best sounding LP.
You need to play one and you will by one I have aheavy aged 60 and let me tell you thru my JCM 800 nothing sounds better
Muito bom gostei 😀
Is the date a typo in this title.
You must be American. European style of dating here.
It is March 9th as also stated in the video....
6000+ for a "not really a vintage, aged brand new les paul"?? crazy
No sg 😢
LOL ,They will even bang up the case for an extra $500.pffft,,,,to think I used to get bummed out if I dinged up a guitar
All that money for a destroyed guitar. I will never understand it.
Destroyed? What do you mean?
And you dont have to worry about dings, so thats a plus :)
@@dundun8640 the finish is beat up.
@@charlesmello39: Again, in what way are the guitars ''destroyed''? Are you saying they're unplayable because the finish is slightly aged?
YOWWWWZA !!!
did I miss something? who is this person trying to do a peach guitars video?
Lol... He runs the place.
Next year they'll be "even more custom" by having Murphy pee on them.
The Poor Barsteward. Any new Guitar day for him is ruined. Lol
3/9/21 I HOPE SO LOL Great video ty gents....
Not everyone in the world uses mm/dd/yyyy
Someone's taking the piss !!
Imagine my confusion as an American at how you can be posting from the future. Is COVID gone yet in September?
It is March 9th, as also stated in the video......
@@chriscarol4965 my good friend this is what we call a joke. Although it may not be a very good one, clearly went over your head ,it is poking fun at the fact that American's and {insert almost any other country} have opposite opinions on whether the month or day should come first on the date in the title. I am well aware of when the video was posted.
Oh I almost forgot
.....{obligatory ellipsis}.....
In case you didn't know. The shop accepts credit cards and kidneys.
I can't see paying $7k for a guitar that is all beat up and scratched up. Would you buy a new car and tell the dealer to drive the cars through some bushes and small tree branches and side swipe a fence?
It's like the torn blue jeans fad... some folks love it, some don't!
Yeah, I don't understand why I should pay thousands of extra dollars to make a brand new guitar look old, especially when just that faux aging process costs more than the guitar did.
A new car runs better, an old guitar plays better.
@@dundun8640 that's great, but it's not an old guitar, it's a brand new guitar that is just purposely damaged to make it look old, and you pay extra for it.
7?...you mean 11🤑
People who prefer fake aged/relic'd guitars also prefer Yanni to Led Zeppelin
Lol oww
I like Yanni and ibanez.Gibson arw totally crappy.
I prefer ibanez.
Drool. 🤤
15k for a les paul scratched up with razor blades
Sorry to say Tom Murphy cannot replicate a vintage instrument it's close but it's not there! Just remember the wood underneath is new
Don't want to be misery guts! And they are beautiful looking guitars! But in my opinion this is getting a bit silly now! Brand new Les Paul's made to look 60 year old ,and gigged to hell! And paying an enormous price for! Who buys these to hang on wall? Don't wish to sound snobbish but I just bought a squier Tele,and it sounds great,plays well,and if we ever get a chance to play live again I'll defo be using it at gigs! And it will get bruised in the rough and tumble,it's unavoidable mostly 🤔
Are these the ones that are made in China?
I can't help but stare at that box on the right, with a large dent exactly where it reads "Fragile" ... ouch
