I don't normally like Les Pauls. I have to say that up front. Having said that, this might be one of the most beautiful Les Pauls I have laid my eyes on! Absolutely stunning! I SO want (and probably can't afford) this guitar!
I must have that sort of beauty in my life! The tone it has! The looks it has! why am I just a student and can't I afford to buy that guitar!? Ohh blessed beauty, out of reach for now, but not for long I promise you.
I can't get enough of your playing Pete. And what a great guitar. However, when ever I have an expensive Gibson in my hands and have a detailed look at them I'm so disappointed due to the lack of quality even at their most expensive models.
My god Pete, the pickup switch you did at 2:02, sounded so lovely, and I don't only mean the sound before and after, but the actual switching itself sounded amazing.
+Jeremiah Mountain It's prone to overheating and burning. That's why they don't use it that much. (that is - if it's like the JTM 60's that have some cooling issues)
+Bacon Muffin I'm pretty sure it's the reissue but you could take the back off n get a fan on those tubes to help. I have a 50watt plexi n do that cuz Marshalls usually run hot
Jeremiah Mountain Alright! Sweet! Good to see they fixed it in the reissue I personally haven't had much heating problems at all with my Marshall... (not a JTM btw) then again it has a fan that's louder than my computer... (which has it's drawbacks)
A suggestion; the thing your videos do not really show is the profile of the back of the neck. This is hard I know, but some pinch grip shots edited in of the lower, middle and higher reaches of the neck side on would be really useful to go with all the great other information the videos show. Trying to pause the video as you twirl the neck, or interpreting a description like "chunky", "slim", etc. is frustrating. Been thinking this about these videos and your other reviews for years. Hope you read this.
+fossilmatic Hi there. These videos are made so you guys can hear the sounds of the guitars. If you follow the link in the description there will be more info and photos of the guitar. If it is a guitar you or anyone else are interested in buying we will be happy to try to take those photos for you. We will also speak to our photographer to see if this would be possible to add in future high end guitars. But we do recommend to come in and try these guitars out if possible as they are remarkable things. Thank you for watching.
+Andertons Music Co really appreciate the response. Being 12000 miles away makes it a it hard, but until I get to Guildford from NZ a few slower neck shots would be great!
That's easily the nicest finish Gibson has put on a new guitar. I really like the "aging" that Gibson does, but I draw the line at deliberate dings to the finish.
I really wanted to dislike the true historics, I thought molecularly correct plastics could do one. Unfortunately, they are incredible guitars. The best sounding and playing les Pauls out there.
I love my LP, but they're far from perfect. They don't balance well when sitting and playing (always wants to fall off your lap), which is just annoying, the headstocks are super fragile and really can't stand up to much abuse (much more prone to snapped headstocks than other guitars), and finally they don't stay in tune as well as other guitars because of the angle the strings pass through the nut (which to be fair is solvable by modifying the nut should it need it). That said, they're stunningly beautiful guitars and are absolute tone monsters.
Lovely playing, Pete.. showcasing those amps nicely too. Just noticing the fret board is more the lighter brown colour of rosewood, or maple.. Wouldn't a true historic 59' have an ebony finger board? A thousand pardons if that's incorrect. Cheers.
+James R. P Williams it should actually have a Brazillian board but due to cites and restrictions on brazillian Gibson used Indian Rosewood on these. I have a True Historic 1960 reissue and its my best guitar out of all the high end guitars Ive had
Ridiculous. Gibson always testing what the market will bear. Perhaps the bright side is that it may in some way keep retail prices on Trads and Standards lower. 🤔
8 minutes of guitar demo.. or was I being aurally seduced by Pete? After a few minutes it was hard to tell... Maybe I've just developed feelings for that guitar.
I honestly do not get the incessant chasing of "vintage" guitars & clones and "vintage" amplifiers. It's really almost kinda silly when young guys try to sound like old guys. Its like a modern car is trying to be as crappy as on old one. Now if you can afford to have actual 1950-70s guitars, thats a totally different thing.
I don't normally like Les Pauls. I have to say that up front. Having said that, this might be one of the most beautiful Les Pauls I have laid my eyes on! Absolutely stunning! I SO want (and probably can't afford) this guitar!
Hate to say it but there is something really special about those true historics...
Pete's playing is never the same, always fresh. Maybe some short lessons on Andertons channel Pete?:D teaching us some tricks and tips
Another 8 minutes of joy! Nice one Pete!!
+CaptAnderton Hey Captain did you happen to see the Super Eagle by PRS which is John Mayer private stock guitar
I must have that sort of beauty in my life! The tone it has! The looks it has!
why am I just a student and can't I afford to buy that guitar!?
Ohh blessed beauty, out of reach for now, but not for long I promise you.
OMG, unbelievable, this Les Paul sounds.....exactly like the other 497 LP's they've demonstrated. Amazing.
These get grief for the price but if you can afford one it's a truly sensational instrument.
What a beautiful Guitar!!! And the sound.......................... like Heaven!
I have to confess... I love hearing the Les Paul through the Fender amp. Such a lovely mellow tone :)
Peter Green*
Pete you always make my day,another great theme at the end...
A great guitar played by a great player! Perfect match!
Going to love this series!
Nice job Pete! Fantastic tones, guitar is beautiful
Top shelf playing from Pete. Even more tasteful than his shirts and hoodies 😊
Man, this guitar and your playing are absolutely beautiful. Great video.
would love to hear this on one of the Marshall "Andertons" 1watt head/ cab
Stunning!
Pete may i say you have one of the best jobs in the world! Im sure you've earned it through the years though :)
Thank god you got rid of the jcm800!! Love the JTM :))
Hot damn! I really dig that one.
One day I will travel to Guildford and buy a guitar from the greatest music shop in the world.
Brilliant guitar!
beautiful
Heaven
Beautiful sounds. Great video.
awesome playing pete & what an awesome LP.
btw the LP + Marshall JTM45 sounds freakin' sweet. Glad you switched out the JCM.
I can't get enough of your playing Pete. And what a great guitar. However, when ever I have an expensive Gibson in my hands and have a detailed look at them I'm so disappointed due to the lack of quality even at their most expensive models.

Danish Pete! Great playing as usual! That JTM 45 sounds so good, you guys should use it more often
+Jeremiah Mountain It's prone to overheating and burning. That's why they don't use it that much. (that is - if it's like the JTM 60's that have some cooling issues)

I personally haven't had much heating problems at all with my Marshall... (not a JTM btw) then again it has a fan that's louder than my computer... (which has it's drawbacks)
+Bacon Muffin what kind of Marshall are you playing?? The new JTM sounds great/super quiet and has great headroom like a super lead but not as loud
Jeremiah Mountain I'm just using a good old 100W Marshall AVT
juicy sound of joy.. musical climax! ;-)
I thought the true historic might have been a slight gimmick but they are hands down the best sounding les Paul's

+fossilmatic At least they responded to you, I can never and have never got one response, and I watch this channel everyday !!!
fossilmatic is
beautiful guitar, great playing!
Wow!
That's easily the nicest finish Gibson has put on a new guitar. I really like the "aging" that Gibson does, but I draw the line at deliberate dings to the finish.
Bad ass!

I guess Andertons is out of Top Shelf Guitars. Haven't seen this format in awhile. I enjoyed the great playing and simplicity.
Nice guitar i have one just like it
What is it that people have against les Paul's? There is not a single fault in them.
Guitar Cult well the headstock's are pretty fragile but that's probably the only downside
Cause they are jelous :P
I love my LP, but they're far from perfect.

totally epic
Damn.
Drooling...
That's tone my man
Also yes, that jtm is what is missing from my life
So what exactly is the difference?
Lovely playing, Pete.. showcasing those amps nicely too. Just noticing the fret board is more the lighter brown colour of rosewood, or maple.. Wouldn't a true historic 59' have an ebony finger board? A thousand pardons if that's incorrect.

+roger roy After a little reading up you are indeed correct, sir. Cheers!
Beautiful sound! Now, what chance of a Lucille review?
What pick ups are on it?
Top!!!!!
What are the last chordprogression you play ? :) sounds wonderful!
Can you guys make a review on the Lee Malia signature guitar?
I second this^^
Also, anyone know any artists that play like this?
Peter Green.
pretty much twang for a les paul. lovely sound a
What?
+BooleanUniverse 'a lovely twang sound for a les paul,pretty much'-translation
+franneck1989 I thought the same.
+heroehat oh I see
That is what a correct build Les Paul should sound like, in the middle position nearly Telly like. ;-)
Very lovely sound, really sounds superb!
I thought po*n is not allowed on youtube.
What an amazing guitar!
Was that "Like I'm Gonna Lose You" by Meghan Trainor ? If so I have a whole new respect for that song.
Is it bad that I just want him to tune it to B standard and play some carcass? ;P
Team scratch plate!!! 😉
Damn. Look at that beauty. Look at the colors she is wearing. Look how playable she is. Hear what she sounds like...mellow, warm, honey, delicious :)
How can you tell how playable it is w/o picking it up?
+gdawgs101 I don't know, that's my impression, don't be so strict :)
Haha not strict, just curious lol. Gorgeous LP, cheers!
£6259 oohhff!
JCM-800, ftw.
That is one pretty LP but $8,900? Ouch?
Ridiculous. Gibson always testing what the market will bear. Perhaps the bright side is that it may in some way keep retail prices on Trads and Standards lower. 🤔
8 minutes of guitar demo.. or was I being aurally seduced by Pete? After a few minutes it was hard to tell... Maybe I've just developed feelings for that guitar.
I dislike Les Pauls a lot (my back hates them). This, however, looks WAY too pretty.
Not the right guitar player for the guitar. Great video and the guy rocks when playing Fenders.
I honestly do not get the incessant chasing of "vintage" guitars & clones and "vintage" amplifiers. It's really almost kinda silly when young guys try to sound like old guys. Its like a modern car is trying to be as crappy as on old one. Now if you can afford to have actual 1950-70s guitars, thats a totally different thing.
