I need a bigger shovel to explain how much I dig that sound 😂
Maybe its just my opinion but I think your les paul playing improved like 200% since you have this guitar, you built up a whole different playing style from the heavily strat influenced playing, that must be some hard work, really diggin it :)
the beautiful locks, doe! i just saved mine off. dang, it!
Very perceptive point!
Matt, you must be so pleased how that ol’ plank turned out!!
I think single cut juniors may hit a boom in popularity… people may be tired of hefty, carved-maple top guitars that just make your strumming arm & back more uncomfortable…

I almost 62 years old so i get what you're saying. I have had " benign " RR- MS for almost 30 years now so the last thing I need is additional struggle(s) in my life. Ive had a black and chrome Les Paul.Studio guitar since january of 2008. It's got 2 Alnico humbuckers and it is thinner and lighter than a Les Paul Standard.
It's easy on the eyes , on the ears and on the wallet as compared to other Gibson LPs.. It's an often overlooked model and ive never understood the reason why that is.
Mine has given me way more playing
pleasure than i ever imagined.
Love when you do these "just sit and play 2-3 min" videos.
Ok, did Matthew dye his hair to match the Les Paul? 😂
hahahahahahahahahhahahahaha
Looks ok. No big deal.
Color coordinated all the way !
No, he is just infected by the les Paul
Who wouldn’t?
Almost as spectacular as that tone is the aging on those tuning pegs!
Bri'ish teeth tone
@@JefeInquisidorGOW 👍🏼🤣🤣🤣
Damn man, thats how that guitar needs played! Killing it bro!!
They say over time owners begin to look like their guitars.....sick riffs man!!
Well flabber my gast, that kicked arse more than any arse has been kicked.fuckin loved it.keep on rockin dude
Got a lot of AC/DC vibes from this. Absolutely smashing it bro 😮💨
Like; Billy Gibbons meets Angus Young...
I was thinking Foghat.
Angus just left Chicago
And he's bound for New Orleans
Perfect if Malcolm's waiting then life would like rock
Nice that your hair now matches the guitar! Great sound!
holy shit dude....... I'm glad you got that out of your system. That guitar is magic in your hands.
Love that percussive rhythm playing going on!
It's perfect as I recall, no effect pedals just the guitar amp and fingers
Perfect thank you
That ole' dog can hunt! Nice picking Matt!
Matthew, I’ve really enjoyed watching you go from almost entirely posting videos of you playing (amazing) SRV-inspired Strat stuff, to playing all other sorts of different guitars and really “rockin out”. Whether it’s the bluesier stuff with a Strat, or rocking some chords on a Tele or a Gibson, I just love the tone and feel you get out of your gear and your talent. Thank you for entertaining me, and please don’t ever stop with these videos!
Old School! Love it....! Nothing beats old school sounds.
I love that you're using all vintage gear. Man, I grew up in those eras. This is why the kids don't get it. They think it can come from a box. Hell no!!
That’s the proper use for that guitar 🤘
Wooa! Your entire body is now the same colour as your guitar.
M8 so many references in there. Love the Koss licks.
Hopefully the sun keeps shining until October again.. :)
That Special is amazing! The Specials & Juniors from this era sound incredible, almost makes me want to own a Gibson again... LOL!!!
That is such an incredible sound
Awesome ! I felt a little Free alright now vibe more then once. Amazing Matthew.
Another great one!! We don't get many videos but the quality is always there. Thank you for a killer afternoon pick me up?!
wow! awesome playing and guitar!
Playing Gibsons take you to a different place. Sounds great.
It is mastered so well I was confused with doubts for a moment for the sounds coming through my earphones. It is making my earphones sound good more than they actually are. XD
That was huge!!! This guitar is killer!! A lot of vibes and you making as one with it. I think you get a lot of inspiration with this 58’ Les Paul. Great playing mate! Keep it up 👍🏻🎸
I would be interested in seeing you compare this to one of the new tribute Les Paul Specials.
I’ve got a couple dozen guitars. The Les Paul tribute (with p-90s) is an exceptional value in my opinion. I have Suhr, PRS & all the usual brands. For the money,I like the tribute P-90 better than a lot of my guitars and find myself returning to it rather than my Les Paul standard. It just feels right. Very simple straight forward guitar. Cost per performance value is hard to beat.
I’d love to see that too. As a very happy owner of a Tribute, I’d even be prepared to be a little disappointed.
Les Paul specials and juniors are a great value in the Gibson line.
Jesus, man. Sick tone!
Great sound, beautiful 🎸 love the old les Paul 😎👍
Lovely Tone!! Pure and REAL!!! Peace brother
Man,that just sounds so big. Love it.
Man that was pure/raw TONE, I dig it!
That 58 Gibson LP sounds great .... and you sure know how to wale on on it Love your playing style!!!
I’d say she IS a keeper!!! Bridge pickup is sounding pretty good from here…! Enjoy your channel, keep ‘em comin. 🤘🏼🤘🏼
I simply love the tones that come out of that LP Matt. I've heard quite a few but none quite like that one! 🤘
My personal favorite of all your guitars!
Love how the needed repairs on this guitar match the original worn out finish & keeping the strange old pickguard was a great idea.
Cool 😎 that was fun. Thanks Matthew, how bout a little more next time. ✌🏼🎶
Truly impressive playing. Brilliant !
Wow sounds just like my 2021 tribute I'm soooo happy I got it this just solidifies it
👎
Dammit man, im jealous of the guitars you play, the amps you play through, how damn good of a player you are and especially the hair! hahahaha Keep on rocking! Love it!
What all My favorite guitar players have a lot of You have a good deal of as well. Your posts make this older Guy who has less of it than You want to keep playing and get better. Thanks for the posts.
Great guitars... Great sound... As usual... 🔊👍
Matthew is really getting great. I have a theory. I think he got signed under the radar with Gibson. He always gets these awesome vintage machine and amps. Who else thinks this possibly?
He has a lot of cash for gear.
@@denboe2894 he earns it.
isn't weird how we think we play les pauls and strats, teles ect? I think they play us. Matt you sound completely different with a different ax in your hand. very cool regardless what you play!
That guitar is definitely a keeper! Great playing as always.
Love it and love your playing
YES, it is dug. I really enjoy these jam videos.
Amazing job and I believe the spirit of Rory Gallagher is strong in your playing
Rory Gallagher was the first concert I ever saw, and he was OPENING for Rush!
The only other time I saw something like that was Johnny Winter opening for George Thorogood... after that it was "George who???"
@@timnewman1172 yeah Rory and Alex Lifeson became good friends.
Another commenter in one of his other videos mentioned he had a Rory Gallagher vibe.....
Awesome as always
Best thing I've heard all day - Thank you!
I should never have passed on bidding on that!
It's actually been amazing to watch this go from an unplayable guitar to this monster of a les paul
Gotta love that mojo machine! Well played brother. Love it! ✌️
Hi Matt I remember growing up listening to guitar players and saying wow that guy completely and rhythm at the same time you can do both I think you're super talented keep up the great work and put a band together so we can watch you really perform live
you inspire me to keep playing to improve even at the ripe old age of 74, cheers man
Thanks man this was a nice message to recieve this morning.
Hey can someone tell me when this guy's music is coming out? He has released only 2 singles but cant find the rest? HE IS GREAT !!!! what great playing
I bought an ( 2020 - inspired by gibson ) epi lp special tv yellow about a year ago , they are great guitars for a great price ( 400 euro;s ) ,i upgraded the pu's ( tonerider vintage P 90's - alnico 2 ) , and man , i am really liking the sound of my guitar . i have had several gibson lp's in the past from different ranges ( tribute , classic , standard and cs ) with humbuckers and p 90 pu's , but this epi can compete with all of them , i also like the thick 50's style neck and wrap around brigde , i don't have the means anymore to buy an gibson lp , but i don't mind , having the epi forfills my lp needs more than i could have imagined , great playing , rock on !
The tone of that guitar is astonishing.
Love it Matt hearing some Texas Blues creeping in❤
Nice way to start my day. Cool new hairdo Matthew, thanks for sharing 🎸🤠
Wow. What a sound!
killer tones, killer rock'n'roll visual. It sounds like a dream!
What's not to absolutely love about this tone and your playing man? Rock on!
...great sound and playing ...thanks :)
Such a great player. Man between this and the Melody Maker I think you do the Gibson thing well, for a Fender guy lol somebody needs to sell him a Marshall and watch what happens...
Has that southern twang! Love it
So much YES!!!!! sounds so damn good 😩 can’t get enough 🥵🔥
Kickass playing and guitar.
Boy do i dig your playing now!
Is that the guitar that you bought from the Goodwill shop 2 or 3 years ago? If it is than you have assisted in
Accomplishing a miracle. That guitar's tone to my ears is one of a kind. Hail Hail rock and roll ! ( and blues too) 🎼🎵🎵🎶🎵🎶🎶❤😊🎸
LOVE the beatup headstock on that
What a sound. Just incredible.
Sounds amazing!
Killer Playing (as always). BTW, I Love that guitar
Ain't nothing like a fat crunchy P90 and you've proved that with previous Les Paul Juniors and now you can add this Special to the résumé!
Best sounding guitar you have! I’d sell them all keep this and play this only :-D But, hey! I like one guitar only…
This is sick, man!)) You have a great skills in playing guitar, fkn awesome!
That was so bad ass Matt!
Super cool guitar and playing!
My man dyed his hair to match the golden sun lol
