Cheers for all the cool comments guys. Glad you like this series of vids & I hope it helps anyone trying to decide on a new Les Paul. Only 2 more to go now!!
CaptAnderton your rolex explorer also kinda cool 😊👍
This is infinitely better than TV
3:19 so funny how lee just sits there ALONE philosophizing about bindings
The moment Lee messed around with the Tone knobs I knew this guitar was loaded with Orange Drop caps, checked the specs and I was correct. Great example of how much better Orange Drop caps are compared to Ceramic Disk caps.
3:19 chappers has returned to his original form of a les paul
Holy CRAP! I had to pause it just to stare at that Seafoam green for I think a solid minute. I'd buy that guitar just for the color if I could afford to.
As Rob said, lee, very cool playing, very tasty...so cool playing.
Really sweet lead playing, Lee...
Is it me or is this one of the best les Paul videos ever. Rocking playing. Perfect. Yes the best jam you done guys. Brilliant. Inspired by the axes me thinks.
hahaha... you guys rock! And a legendary quote from The Captain: "like all the good things, brown on the outside and pink in the inside..."
Cap10 Lee for the win!!! :D
How could anyone not love to watch these guys
Best jam I've ever seen the captain do.
Lee i know that your a strat guy but do yourself a favor and buy that one for yourself! I've seen every video you guys have ever done and this is the best ive ever heard you play. That guitar makes you play skanky !
Lee's playing was great .. actually while he was playing i was like "damn he's killin' it!" Then Chappers agreed with me .... good times!
You can set any Gibson to get you a boost at the flick of a switch by running on pick up on full and the other on half. Play in the middle position for your rhythm and switch it to the pickup on 10 for your leads. I use that quite a lot!
Lee just tore that jam up! Killer licks man.
Hahaha, my MIJ Tokai Les Paul already has the frets over the binding, before Gibson thought of doing it. Damn I love my Tokai
Great playing from Lee.
TOTALY AGREE WITH CHAPPERS!!!!
their best jam EVER
I changed the boost switch for a tone knob . Not because i disliked it but i did wanted an traditional looking Les Paul.(read :4 knobs). Fact is , this is an amazing guitar in every aspect . Tone,playability and looks (for me anyway)
Thats why i changed it .
How did you do it? Any instruction online? I am thinking of doing the same thing. What I do like about the boost is that it really helps when coil spliting
facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.824091564324980.1073741833.821629307904539&type=3
Through this page i received useful info . I payed 98 ero's and could pick the guitar up the same day .
Lee, your tone is freakin' unbelievable.
Just bought one last night 2014 model. No horrifying Gforce. Brand new 1800 Canadian. Couldn't walk by it. I love it.
I love my 94 classic 60s neck hot 496r 500t pickups and the fancy shocker case. Mines got a silk blanket that shrouds the guitar though. In the words of borat...very nice!
The Les Paul is in my opinion is simply the best guitar ever, but I feel like Gibson should had left the 2nd tone control and made it a push/pull
I have this model. I do miss the separate tone, especially as it is particularly bright when the single tone is rolled open. I do like the extra dbs when activating the on board boost. You can punch up your leads and keep the same tone as it provides enough boost without hitting a extra pedal. I do not use the push pull on stage often as it does not change phase, merely switches from a dual to a single coil sound but it sounds good recording on some things. Love this guitar, my main Les Paul. I also have a 2014 R8, and they sound and play differently. I enjoy the r8 more, but I use the Classic far more often.
Think Chappers is totally right Cap that was some of the best soloing ive heard from you dude. Was epic mate keep up the epic vids guys! Andertons and Dorje rawk!!
\m/ \m/ \m/
The binding over the frets was one of the indicators as to whether a new one was fake, or whether an older one had had a fret job done.
Awesome playing, Capt. Lee
Cap'10, Chapper's right...great jam! Probably your best lead ever.....G.O.R.G.E.O.U.S. guitar, excellent tone (?) - get the ML-9 to be a carved top, Jazzmaster style, this color, 2 humbuckers git, and I'm game
I'm sold, I'm getting this guitar!
I have a Trad Pro II in Merlot with a 50s neck, it is an awesome guitar! Really pleased to see Gibson have a similar one in the catalog this year. The boost is very useable with a valve amp, and the 57 pickups are lovely. Especially the neck on the clean channel. Looking forward to trying a 14 Classic to compare them!
And the Captain strikes again! Sweet solo ;)
it's nice to see TheCapn knows when to rock the SHOCKER appropriately.
@martin Oliver Yes you can tap the humbucker in the bridge on these. It's called a 57 super and has take offs from the end of coil wire as always and another partial way through the coil. And yes I know the true diff in tap/ split. That is tapping, though they also have splitters on this axe as well.
Like all good things pink on the inside - LOL. Love that one 😜
Amazing Jam at the end! Gave me the chillz!
It's because the frets are cryogenically frozen
kingster20 Nice pun there! Ha!
I'm with Gibson on this. Its much easier and cheaper to refret with the nibs. And its just the cosmetic thing. Fun fact : I read somewhere that the nibs were a mistake. It shouldn't be there at all.
I believe that the nib removal is a cost cutting move. If correctly done you shouldn't really notice. Also, for 62 years they've had it wrong? I don't think so.
lee! wow! best solo and best tone i've ever heard from you. sweet playing!
Rob's face at 11:06 cracks me up everytime
Captain that was a great sensitive solo thank you...
I really enjoy your videos. Many thanks for making and sharing them!
Can't believe the shocker came out!
It's called the shocker! 8:33 Steel Panther, seeing them in two months!
My mistake. 1,4,5 You guys made that sound Great!
definitely your best jam captain!!! that was sweet!!
Sweet jam guys! And nice guitars!
love this guitar in black
Bought a black one last night. Love it to death.
One day I will own one of these...
Agreed this was the best jam they did. o/. Love how this one sounds... Awesome!
That dark red LP classic is byowtiful.
That studio pro is beautiful
The jam was amazing! Good job Capitan.
Capt'n sounds so much better in E than in A. Plus that LP Classic sounded amazing and the boost wasn't bad either.
That's why those Gibson cases are nicknamed California Girls - brown on the outside, pink on the inside :-)
Rob, I think you look beter without mustache. You rock man!
Great playing lee, that was friggin awesome!
Excellent playing Capt! Well done!
got one in vintage sunburst delivered today, waiting for me at home, while I work. clock. needs. to. go. faster.
3:27 that close-up shot was amazing. Please do more of your videos in this style and get rid of the fixed camera position. It looks so beautiful and in some way makes us feel more involved. Thanks.
yo guys i think it would be cool if you mentioned that every single model of guitar AND bass that Gibson produces this year (including the SG's) will be available in left handed configuration. - love from the southpaw side
Best sounding guitars for a while! Amazing guitars man!
If I went for LP, I reckon this one would be just right. Binding, looks, tapping, mahagony, price (for an LP), and who really needs two tone controls
It's two in the pink and one in the stink, that why it's called the shocker!
You said about the binding, maybe they make it so that you can feel the string touch it so you know how far you can bend before the string will pull off the fretboard?
chapper was right, it was the best one ever!
That segment on the the binding and frets was a revelation for me. Lots of times when going back to play a les paul after playing my tele I initially choke the high e string when I'm vibratoing. I thought it had something to do with the neck width (which may still be true) but now it could also be the frets!
The question is why has it taken this long for Gibson to change their design?
Nice jam guys!!!!! ;)
You could say you guys have been:
"Getting The Les Out"
Chappers: "I've got one camo pick left"...
Captain: "... I can't see it"...
-enjoyed the quick wit. actually made me laugh out loud.
Nice review chaps, keep it up.
Cheers from the west coast u.s.
Never mind! It's 6-2-6-4-5 Alright, still Captain you were great!!
You are amazing, guys! Very informative and funny! Thank you!
thanks for the videos rob! very cool .but i would like to request a video demo and comparison. the obvious topic you havent touched yet which is the subtle differences in tone you get from playing good and drunk vs sober. thanks in advance...
The shocker!! haha
11:38 Yes it really was the best I've heard from you! Sounded Great!! Maybe it was the 6,4,5 Lol I can hardly distinguish between the Middle and the Rhythm tones during your solo. Which is fine because I love the Rhythm tone best!
think I'm sold on the LP Classic!!! I just need to get some pickup covers...
The shoooocker!
The only reason Gibson ditched the over fret edge binding on these models is manufacturing cost.
awww yeah now I want to save up $2000 hahaha, these sound awesome!
Great playing Lee. That guitar really suits you :)
You guys should do a while cd with just jam tracks! I love your jams!
Great playing! :)
I saw pictures of this, and I wasn't a fan, I thought they swapped the second tone for coil tap or something silly that they could have just used a push pull pot for. But now that I know it's a boost, I am suddenly very interested in these.
Imagine Gibson would release 365 NEW guitar models a year, you could do a review every day ;-))))
Re the fret binding, Epiphone frets are over. Just thought I'd mention it ;)
Cap10 gets better and better...
i'd love to see lee do a review and do an awesome jam like he just did then suddenly smash the thing for an ending out of the blue :D
I've been searching to the intro song for Years!
Someone please tell me! YOU'D MAKE MY DAY!
it's dorje, can't remeber wich one but it is "dorje"
Bleed the light by Mr Monkey Lord himself
aeromancy
He actually posted a lengthy lesson and tab a few years back.
Chappers you and the Captain should record some blues-rock songs.
After that jam *slow claps*
8:34 - two in the pink, one in the stink
I was reading that comment at that exact moment lol
I hated the nibs so much on my 2012 Standard that I had it refetted last year at Charlie Chandlers - Much better now.
The nearest I got today was 1-4-5 but there's something about that E you're playing I'm not fully getting. That's fine I found a few other new things along the way. And Captain, you've finally crossed over into Rock and Roll!! ;)
It's the jimi chord. E7#9 (with no 5th)
That's awesome, thanks!
Thanks man, that's awesome! Appreciate the help.
Great vid guys. You've definetly cheered me up at work today. Any ideas when the boogie rectoverb 25 vid will be up? I'm really looking forward to your review of it.
I personally love all les Paul's but the price difference is what I look at
Hey, love your vids, new subscriber! XD
I prefer the old style binding. It looked better, felt smoother and was harder for counterfeiters to replicate.
I like this one! I think it's the best Les Paul out of the 2014 range you've showed yet. I'm really curious how the Les Paul Standard could possibly top this. I guess with a nicer flame top ... and of course the Standard will have it's own tone ... Anyways, in my humble opinion the features on the Classic are great, and this one has just about everything I could want in a Les Paul. Sounds good too.
Great video again. Can't help feeling that if u r sliding your strings THAT close to the edge then you are only going to slide off the edge of the fret with a nasty ker-lung anyway! I think the overbound look has a certain feel of being more 'quality' build, but a re-fret means a rebind to a degree, so the new style is probably an improvement. I second the question on scratchplates below...
as a luthier, i have wondered why Gibson did it the way they used to. if i build a guitar with bindings on the fretboard, i don't want to lose that bit of fretboard just for some binding. you just clip the bits off (the bit that goes "IN" the fretboard.) where it goes over the binding and that's that.. its weird how it took them so many years to finally give in... but i guess its mostly the old guitarist farts who really just want tradition and nothing new who made it stay that way for so long.
money
I agree. The old Gibson binding must take a lot more work and I think it looks a bit clumsier than simpler frets over the binding. I assume the only reason they continued for so long in the same way is for the reactionary 'guitar collectors' or maybe because the extra effort was regarded as better for it's own sake.
i love your videos
