New Single "Broken Promise" Out Now! Listen on: TH-cam: • Jon Dretto - Broken Pr... Spotify: open.spotify.com/album/0uaZbu... Apple Music: / broken-promise-single
Every guitar sounds awesome through a 2000$ amp Edit: also this gibson (well most gibsons) arent so expensive because of their incredible sound and production, which would maybe rectify 1000$ for a guitar, but rather because of their name, for example a gucci bag wouldn’t cost 2000$ because it’s a limited edition one piece with metal parts that were taken from the meteor that killed dinosaurs, but simply because the name “gucci” is printed on it. What matters though if you’re aiming for a good sound is the medium that defines it. So the only thing that DRASTICALLY changes the sound on aguitar is the pickups, which pick up the sound and send it to the amp to process, the rest comes down to the amp and effects, so instead of wasting money that could get you nearly frkn anything on a brand name and the age of a guitar, waste it on the amp or thousands of suits, your choice. Wow long edit, wanted to write one sentence cmon
@@turdman4976Any idea how many collectors are searching for the early fifties Fender Strats? Those are all worth the weight in solid gold. And when you buy an old Yamaha Pacifica, those are still normal money. So: upgrade one, and do it thorough. Seymour Duncan pickups, or what pickups you like best. Buy a sturdier floating bridge. Everything that touches the strings has an effect on the resulting sound. That's why expensive tuners are often better, it's not about how good they tune, it is about how that string keeps vibrating, and that is important for your sound, that is why certain guitar players prefer certain tuners. It's not just looks. New jumbo frets, if you like jumbo frets. And do have the wisdom of putting the original parts in a box, marked PARTS YP112, you never know when the hype will make you a millionaire, provided you still got the yellowed pickup covers and all. Seen video's of people buying an old guitar, and being very very glad the vintage pickup has always been in the guitar case, and the seller knew the buyer did appreciate it being there. Great.
@@turdman4976Try making such a guitar today. Sure Gibson does replica series, but I wonder what (home build) luthiers come closest to the original. Maybe that's a challenge. You need very similar wood, parts that sound just like what they used to have. And measurements should be pretty acurate. How hard can it be? Maybe aging is a thing, guitars that keep being played, are said to sound better. Where do you find the soul for such a replica?
@@voornaam3191 it's an electric so the wood makes nearly no difference in the tone because the pickups are a filter and the strings never actually touch any unfinished wood. So it's not about the guitar, it's about the amp.
Ppl in the comments are all like ppl comparing wine and saying there are differences. when even Sommeliers confuse wine.🤭 It would be awesome if he actually switched the two guitars sounds (when editing the video) to see how obnoxious ppl are. Lol.
Yeah but if your buying a 100$ guitar to can expect it to be made of plywood and can expect a lot of corners to be cut. But with that being said if your buying a cheap ass guitar could could tune it up make it a lil nicer and flip it for 20-50$ more
@@vincevegas8529 new guitars aren't nearly the level of quality as older guitars 🤣 with that said, there are SOME good newer guitars out there. Quality control is far less than it used to be for most gear, and definitely the quality isn't the same. Lower priced guitars are better than they used to be I suppose, and some extremely expensive ones, but that's about it.
You'd be mostly correct. There is a lower limit where the gear is just badly made and uncomfortable to play. Beyond that..don't bother. With amps.. speaker and the order the EQ and overdrive is put in is 99% of the sound.
Ik when my guitar out of tune i just go to my local guitar shop and buy a brand new guitar The Gibson custom shop loves me Cant wait for the future technology to be able to tune a guitar
Philip McKnight said it best, he said something like this: “You cant taste the $300 knife that the chef used to prepare your meal, but it matters to the chef” or something along those lines
The eBay guitar has that clean and soft tone while the Gibson Les Paul has a bit of distortion. So it's basically up to you what your gonna use, eBay guitar for soft and mellow playing or the Gibson for rock or metal songs
@@bumstudios8817 both of you are wrong. Spectre Sound Studios did several videos on it and found that it's actually the speaker, cabinet (yes, the stupid plywood box the speaker/s sit in) and microphone that have the greatest effects on guitar tone.

@@khristopherkomodoensis4734 the amp is the plywood speaker box bro lol.. technically no it’s separate in most cases but without the speaker and plywood box you wouldn’t really have an amp.. or most wouldn’t consider it an amp, perhaps a preamp.
I definitely would not recommend cheap guitars to beginners, as they usually don't come well set up, tuners suck, nut may cause issues, sharp fret ends or uneven frets, bad electronics, etc. But if you want your learning process to also include setting a guitar up, I don't see anything wrong with buying one as a beginner. But if you're playing it as it is straight out of the box... Just no.
the animators didnt want to draw a whole guitar so they just downloaded 3d models of gibsons lol. if that anime wanted to be realistic those girls would be rocking cheap knockoffs and have episodes of them modding their guitars. also gibson les pauls are actually really heavy IRL
@@razerPh Let's be real, the quality of cheap guitars has gone up dramatically over the years. You can buy a complete guitar, with excellent hardware, electronics, for a good price. For example, take a $700 guitar and pit it up against a guitar that's double $1400, and if you did a blind test, if you were honest, it would be extremely difficult to distinguish which guitar is the more expensive guitar, that is to say the quality you get in $1400 is not going to be double the quality when compared to the $700. There's only so much you can do to a guitar before you get to a custom, and at that point, why even compare it to a cheap one from ebay or Amazon? Like you dropped $3-$4k for a guitar you won't even want to take with you to a gig or take it out of the case because of how expensive it is.
@@isaacvelasco6498 let's be real here were talking about the Expensive vs cheap guitars lol🤔🤔so if that's the case how in the world that they had the same tone🤔

Prove it idiot.
It's not whether the price of a guitar is expensive or cheap that makes it sound good, but whether it is played by whom the guitar produces a good sound
@@isaiah.s but has a difference. But its just clear to people that know the instrument. Les paul has a more crispy sound, If you understand what I'm saying
Shoutout to player . The sound is very different. Im glad you played one clean and one loud, and they were identical playing just very different sound! Amazing
Yes, this is true. However, all 58-60 Les Pauls are called “bursts” and they’re all almost the same guitar. Prices for any 58-60 are pretty similar. You can find examples of 60s and 58s that are more costly than even good examples of 59s.
Diminishing returns start at about $500 these days. The only differences will be playability, pickups, and tuning stability, the latter which no Les Paul, regardless of price can compete in.
That's not true whatsoever you can play the same exact lick the same exact way once on a piece of crap guitar with bad intonation and action and cheap pickups and once on a guitar with good pickups good intonation good action and hardware and every single time the lick played on the superior instrument will sound better. Playing a more professional series guitar will generally be easier when comparing two a poorly set up guitar with cheap hardware. A good guitarist may be able to play the same exact lick on a cheap guitar that he played on the superior instrument no matter how perfectly similar he plays it both times it will always sound/feel better on the higher quality guitar with higher quality pickups your not gonna use a great guitar and swap it out for something with lesser hardware and get the same sound, no matter your playing expertise and ability you will not change the tonal differences that will be present from downgrading hardware.
Anything can sound good but a good musician also cares about tone. Although when it comes to electric guitar, the pedals and amp are more important for tone than the guitar itself.
@@10thousandHoursOfPractice The main difference is reliability...its not that you cant get the "tone" with the dirt cheap guitar cause the tone is in the amp/pedals/whatever other gear you are using... The problem is that the cheapo stuff like the soft plastic nut that can be filed from the strings easily,the horrific tuners that ll need you to retune every other song,the pot metal bridges that dont return properly etc etc etc So its not that you cant get the tone...cause the tone was never on the guitar in the first place...its that you cant rely on it as is(thats why we mod those puppies) to go on stage or record cause you ll spend more time dealing with the guitar issues that your music issues....thats it.
Could that maybe be due to the differences in pickups..? Typical les Pauls are equipped with humbuckers while telecasters have single coil pickups.. very insightful comment!!
The 275000 dollar guitar has a way more prominent tone, and it has almost a fuzz to it, sounds really nice. But in the end, the player makes the guitar, the guitar doesn’t make the player
😀🙄 *What nonsense, if you took a guitar that was $274,000 cheaper then you wouldn't have a guitar at all anymore 274,000 - 274,000 make 0 dollars and for 0 dollars you don't get a guitar* Greetings from Germany - Cologne
Well it's single coil vs humbucker so of course there is a difference. The question wasn't wether there was a difference, but wether one sounded better even when accounting for different pick up styles
About the same tbh. Stupid to spend over 300 too 400 on a guitar to ask me but idc it's not me pockets screaming at end of day. However I got a $100 beginner guitar and now I can say I need to go up nd I know itll cost more
Yeah my 48 year old wife has a pushy:.. But my 21 year old mistresses pushy Is the size of a dime and I don’t immediately think of Roast Beef sandwiches when I go head diving…. You do you boo….
The 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard in Cherry Sunburst in 1960 was $265.00. I used an Inflation-Calculator: 265$ in 1960 was like spending 2.807$ today Now take in consideration that it was/is made in the USA and all that… Still a lot of money, but dont say it „costs“ over 200k$.

So its not that you cant get the tone...cause the tone was never on the guitar in the first place...its that you cant rely on it as is(thats why we mod those puppies) to go on stage or record cause you ll spend more time dealing with the guitar issues that your music issues....thats it.
Yes, I can hear the difference. I can hear $100 coming off the value every note picked.
The guy doesn't even need perfect pitch to feel the extreme difference.
$100 guitar sound impressive while Les Paul sound vivid and no surprisingly expensive.
Les Pauls r my fav. At the end of the day if you have a good amp and are talented, you can make any guitar sound good.
Mesa Boogie extremely versatile = Good times !
The amp matters more than you think
The Tele had a sharper sound, for it was a single coil. The les paul was very FAT and solid. Very well done!
Could that maybe be due to the differences in pickups..? Typical les Pauls are equipped with humbuckers while telecasters have single coil pickups.. very insightful comment!!
The more expensive is better for rock, probably because it has more distortion, but the least defensive one has less distortion
Telecasters and Les Pauls is like comparing apples to oranges
The first one make my wallet cry
Only 100 bucks second one was 375.000

Ah yes, comparing a Les Paul and a ”Telecaster-style” guitar… Of course they Will sound different.
Exactly my thought
Damn the second guitar sound is the only reason I wanna get into Electric guitars anybody know a cheap guitar that sounds like that?
Facts have proved that a good skill is more important than a good guitar
Yeah, I hear the money.
This guy could make any cheap guitar sound great!
$275,000💀
Man i'm gonna be broke when i buy that beauty
That one is the one Slash broke a string on mid song at a concert
The 275000 dollar guitar has a way more prominent tone, and it has almost a fuzz to it, sounds really nice. But in the end, the player makes the guitar, the guitar doesn’t make the player
Somehow the inexpensive ebay 🎸 guitar sounds clearer.
That’s cause he’s putting some distortion on the other one. He’s also playing through a 3000 amp so any guitar will sound like a 270,000 dollar guitar
The skill of the guitar player are what makes the difference not the cost of the guitar
Let’s go this video isn’t a thirst trap this guys improving
The biggest reason that les paul is so expensive is novelty. If you had a 274,000$ cheaper les paul it would sound just as good
😀🙄 *What nonsense, if you took a guitar that was $274,000 cheaper then you wouldn't have a guitar at all anymore 274,000 - 274,000 make 0 dollars and for 0 dollars you don't get a guitar* Greetings from Germany - Cologne

It all comes with great skill and good amp sound.
Gibson has more clarity
I watched it with both my eyes closed for the first time
and rewatch to see which one
Clean tone sounded identical but omg that distored tone on the les paul was beautiful, not sure if that was the amps doing though
Ok so after listening to the first one I can gerente that that’s a guitar
lern how to spell
Plese
Had my back to this video when it came on and I was able to tell which was the 60 les Paul. But he has a good point.
Well it's single coil vs humbucker so of course there is a difference. The question wasn't wether there was a difference, but wether one sounded better even when accounting for different pick up styles
About the same tbh. Stupid to spend over 300 too 400 on a guitar to ask me but idc it's not me pockets screaming at end of day. However I got a $100 beginner guitar and now I can say I need to go up nd I know itll cost more
It's not just the sound it's the quality
Well, I noticed the first on played and sounded like a guitar, and the second one played and sounded like a guitar.
My cheap watch shows the same time ,and my branded Rolex watch show the same time 😂

The 1960 Gibson Les Paul Standard in Cherry Sunburst in 1960 was $265.00. I used an Inflation-Calculator:
265$ in 1960 was like spending 2.807$ today
Now take in consideration that it was/is made in the USA and all that… Still a lot of money, but dont say it „costs“ over 200k$.
Remember always what Prince could do with his cheap Tele type guitar.
I’m glad my boyfriend decided to buy our house early with this guitar
The les paul sounds old school, which gives a classic vibe. Nowadays, it's more like a collection piece than a guitar to play every day.
This truly shows how much of a beast cheap guitars can be when connected to an expensive amp...
My ears could't find the difference, but your fingers could
