So question, do you improve the stuff you do for the comparisons, or are they songs? If the latter, could we have the names of the songs, they sound great!
For everyone looking for the 3rd song(jazz clean) its grito mudo by mateus asato. Ive been looking for it for years and found it today. Im commenting on everyone i can who asked to get the info out
Strats have great clean neck pickup sounds, Les Pauls have great clean bridge pickup sounds with maybe a little bit of drive. They both sound good through high gain.
Seriously, does this guy ever stop talking? "Today we're going to be looking at the Fender Stratocaster and the Gibson Les Paul..." Yeah, thanks, I read the title. "But before we hear the tones, let's talk about the history of these two classic, iconic guitars..." No, how about we don't. "I'm running through my Egnater amp..." We have eyes, dude. "Well, they both have their pros and cons. It's really down to what you prefer. Music is subjective." No kidding. Just let us hear the guitars, ffs. This could have been a six and a half minute video.
I would really love to see a comparison between strat and tele! I know its been done to death on youtube, but nobody does comparisons as well as you do.
Amazing video. Love that there’s no 30 minute intro before getting into it. Also I don’t know why I searched this. Maybe cos I decided to pick up the strat and be like wtf is this, where is all the soul. But didn’t have time to pick my les paul and plug it in before going to work and had to really get this idea recorded. Anyway now I know why I got the shock, cos I almost never plug the strat in. It’s like a guitar which sits on a stand for me to plink when waiting for an advert or something.
@@ajarvanhalen7123 the les paul out the box comes with more of a dirtier sound like my 60s les paul has more distortion on a fender blues jr amp then my american professional series start! let me know if your interested ill post a video
Ah mate, have just found your channel. Immediately my absolute favorite channel. Haha great stuff. Killer tones, sweet playing, clean editing, and the beautiful simplicity. Love the content. My only complaint would be that I would really want to know the names of the songs you play. Man, you got a really nice taste of music and I would not want to miss out the repertoire of yours.
Thanks, it is really appreciated. I was going to put the names of all the songs up with the album art in the corner but I had to change that idea because they get copyrighted and blocked in multiple regions if I do that 😞
I have both, and while they are so different, I prefer the feel of the strat! you will play the strat more! it is cleaner, and MUCH more comfortable. The LP looks like art though. Both are great.
@@Anthony-qh1xv I almost gotta agree here. I also got both, the strats definitely more comfortable to play but the les paul is just so badass and the shorter neck makes bends and chords slightly easier. Genuinely can’t pick a favorite i feel like either way you’re set
Great video! Loved how it got straight to the point. Side by side comparison... also I loved what you played in clip 3 jazz clean neck pickups I'd love a tab or something so I can play it, sounds amazing good job
what i like about the high gain strat is while it sounds thin its got that kinda bite you in the ass sound while the les could solo with the bridge buck also what'd be cool if if the clean tones at the end of the video i'd actually like to see something out of that because the strat could start with the clean tone like you had then the les could mock it and you'd have a really cool song made from that just a suggestion
My question is how much difference in sound comes from LP versus just having the humbuckers? If I had a strat with humbucker in bridge would it sound the same?
Good comparison and nice playing. I'm not a good player but do love my strats and teles. Just ordered an Epi standard Les Paul. Have never played one before so this should be interesting.
Everyone saying strat for clean and les paul for gain, but man i really love the LP clean tone, specially on the neck, it might not have the "twang" of the strat but it has more body and and roundness, like a dark sweetness, the strat is too thin n bright for me :s
Thanks, the Egnater is amazing, such a chameleon. It takes some time to really understand how all the switches interact but once you get it it's great 👍
I was trying to compare both and look for only 1 guitar. Your video made me want both. Great demo. The way to express it showing the pros and cons of each guitar under all kind of style and how your express the tone. I accidentally bought a Jackson dinky guitar as my 1st guitar without understand the difference of the type guitar. Hopefully you can add that kind of metal guitar into the same comparison as well.
I wish the volume was equalized. I closed my eyes and was always drawn to the LP specifically for the cleans. I’m starting to think that the louder volume of the LP played a factor.
So what I hear, is it completely relies on the electronics.Both absolutely great guitars. Soundwise. so for me, it comes down to actual physical construction, in other words, how does it perform in my hands, action to my preference, pickups reactive to my commands. so hard to decide, I have an Epepie traditional III, should I have a Strat, to complement my collection? will a strat be as good? (Physical set up)
Both are perfect in their own way, but Telecaster is the better overall instrument for me as it is capable of the loud LP sound and Strat clarity in one swing of a pick.
I just picked up a strat today, already own a les paul and I like them both for different things. I like how strats have a bit more room on the neck, makes chords and notes feel not so cluttered.
@@luismangiaterra1031 yea I'm just starting to learn about hardware on electrics. My strat has medium to jumbo frets which is nice for really feeling where your fingers are. My les has some small frets. Crazy how much stuff there is to learn about guitars! I love it.
@@brandonmitchell1457 great, takes time to learn, be patient, the jumbo frets are nice, steel frets are the best because they're smoother. You can duplicate the tone of a $30,000 Gibson with your fender by turning your tone knobs to zero and turn the gain and volume up.
@@luismangiaterra1031 I usually play with the tone all the way down otherwise it sounds super twangy,although sometimes I like the twang depending on what I'm playing, and yea when I add a bunch of gain to it its actually a very nice and rich tone. It's an American pro 2, I think the pickups are slightly different from the pro 1's?
@@brandonmitchell1457 yeah, depends on what type of amp your using, takes time to learn how to adjust the guitar and the amp to find different tones, good luck.
I wasted a lot of money on strats to get a fatter sound out of them. there is the old saying “you can paint a balloon black, but it doesn’t make it a bowling ball.” I should’ve just gotten the Les Paul from the get go end. The problems would’ve been over, my next guitar will be a Les Paul.
Both are excellent. I use each plus a tele, hollow body and 335 clone. I choose based on musical needs of the song. Each has merits. Just not a choice of "best" or other contest as some would do. Music by a musical instrument..... not by a badge. Thanks. You do very good videos without the verbal noise!!
15 years ago, I watched a similar video and picked Les Paul. Never looked back. That sound is the definition of soul. One thing should be noted though... the sound difference in the specific pickups for Les Paul is quite big. Not sure how is it with Strat. But for LP, which model you buy makes a big difference.
@@alvinsecretaria1276 I guess it depends on what you prefer. I don't really care. I'm not small or weak so I can just handle the guitar as I wish. And I sit with it in a similar way I sit with a classical guitar (it's on my left leg).
@wrcz one last question man, will i be able to play stuff like mateus asato on this? Those stuff he plays on a strat? I really like the look and tone of Lp's and i wouldn't mind a little discomfort😅
@@alvinsecretaria1276 I don't know him so I couldn't tell you. But in my opinion, you can play anything on anything, it will just have a different sound, so you need to try to see whatever you prefer.
I work professionally with those two and I record a looot of music, the strat has that metallic low-end that is not suit for distorted genres except if you are going for a crushed john frusciante / red hot tone or strummed stuff. The neck pickups on the strat are immaculate, and that's another thing. Les Pauls are easier to mix in heavier rock, easier to place, and the tone is not metallic but really creamy even on the bridge pickups.
Exactly. LP's sound on high gain is much more muddy and dark than overdriven/distorted Strat. I prefer dirty tone of Strat in blues and all kinds of rock. LP's dirty tone is better for metal music though.
It almost seems like the style of music you play will make a big difference. Almost all country stars use Fender Telecasters, almost all classic/easy rock use Stratocasters and most loud/hard rockers use Les Pauls. I myself go with a Strat hands down. I've owned both and the Strats seem more comfortable to play. I have always liked the look and shape of pretty much all the Fenders as well, but what ever floats your boat, they both are great guitars all the way!!!
I wanted to buy a Gibson LP Tribute. There weren't any in Greece at the time, so I bought a Fender Stratocaster player series. Couldn't have been happier with my purchase. I mean, what a great guitar, and I also saved 450€ which helped me buy a Fender Bassbreaker 30r
Both of this guitars interact with a amp differently. For example a les paul would sound more cranked and muddy than a strat or a tele in the same settings. Strat are more thiner sounding, but les paul are more fatter sounding. I feel allthough you could dial in the tone and volume on this guitars. I feel its more work to dial in a good sound on a les paul than other guitars, but that would be easier with experience. I think strat or tele are more easier to manuever. I would recommend strat or tele for beginners. Les Paul are great. I own one. I have had Squier strat and Fender tele before. I also had a Squier Jazzmaster but I hated that the bridge went out of place. Great sound though.
*A few undeniable advantages for the Fender model is that the Stratocaster tends to be lighter and therefore much more comfortable to play for long hours. It's lines and curves just hug your body, wether you are skinny, chubby or muscular. Meanwhile the Gibson is a slab of wood, a heavy slab of wood. The Fender model is also much easier to maintain and modify, as this was by design when Leo Fender created it, decades ago, he wanted players to go out of their comfort zone and mod, experiment with their instruments.* Regarding the necks of both guitars. It's a toss up, some will prefer Fender's and some will prefer Gibson's, so that's a tie. *Tone wise, Les Pauls sport Humbucker Pickups which are pretty much noiseless, have a warm and velvety feel to their sound signature, with lots of bite and power, but on the other hand, these can get muddy easily.* Stratocasters come with Single Coil Pickups which are extremely crisp and detailed, these pickups also keep their signature clarity even when being distorted and overdriven. Problem is, Single Coils are noisy as hell and pretty much demand you to use Noise Gates. Once again, it's a tie, their sound signature will appeal to different people. *Some people will say Les Pauls are the essence of the Rock N' Roll, others will say Stratocasters are the true essence. Both arguments are wrong, because both guitars helped form and define the sound of rock, hard rock, jazz and blues. And while some might say Strats aren't meant for the metal genre, with the right pickups, amp and pedals, you can turn a Stratocaster into a Death Metal machine.* No real winner or loser, as long as you don't ask anyone biased. A fanboy will always be blind and put their preferences ahead of facts.
This is the 3rd time a video of yours has been on the topic I'm currently contemplating.....coincidence? I think not. I'll be keeping my eyes on you, Toby.......
Me da la impresión de que la les paul maneja menor dinamica pero mayor saturación natural. También tengo la sensación de que la les paul en limpio tiene unos graves ligeramente difusos pero unos medios extremos mientras la strat destaca en agudos,medios y graves de forma equilibrada.

I think of just having money to buy all of them and the problem is solved😂😂😂😂
The middle position of a Les Paul is like nothing else. I think it's bar none the most overlooked tone on the Les Paul.
Fender- When you want to tell a story. Gibson- When you want to feel a story.
Finaly a video with no bullshit talking, i like em both
I don't play the guitar but I can't tell the difference, just unable to describe it in words. What are the main differences if anyone can explain?
*A few undeniable advantages for the Fender model is that the Stratocaster tends to be lighter and therefore much more comfortable to play for long hours. It's lines and curves just hug your body, wether you are skinny, chubby or muscular. Meanwhile the Gibson is a slab of wood, a heavy slab of wood. The Fender model is also much easier to maintain and modify, as this was by design when Leo Fender created it, decades ago, he wanted players to go out of their comfort zone and mod, experiment with their instruments.*
Regarding the necks of both guitars. It's a toss up, some will prefer Fender's and some will prefer Gibson's, so that's a tie.
*Tone wise, Les Pauls sport Humbucker Pickups which are pretty much noiseless, have a warm and velvety feel to their sound signature, with lots of bite and power, but on the other hand, these can get muddy easily.*
Stratocasters come with Single Coil Pickups which are extremely crisp and detailed, these pickups also keep their signature clarity even when being distorted and overdriven. Problem is, Single Coils are noisy as hell and pretty much demand you to use Noise Gates. Once again, it's a tie, their sound signature will appeal to different people.
*Some people will say Les Pauls are the essence of the Rock N' Roll, others will say Stratocasters are the true essence. Both arguments are wrong, because both guitars helped form and define the sound of rock, hard rock, jazz and blues. And while some might say Strats aren't meant for the metal genre, with the right pickups, amp and pedals, you can turn a Stratocaster into a Death Metal machine.*
No real winner or loser, as long as you don't ask anyone biased. A fanboy will always be blind and put their preferences ahead of facts.
This is the 3rd time a video of yours has been on the topic I'm currently contemplating.....coincidence? I think not. I'll be keeping my eyes on you, Toby.......
Me da la impresión de que la les paul maneja menor dinamica pero mayor saturación natural. También tengo la sensación de que la les paul en limpio tiene unos graves ligeramente difusos pero unos medios extremos mientras la strat destaca en agudos,medios y graves de forma equilibrada.
The only thing this videos tells us is
Both are great!
Can we have all the songs please ?
thank you! It's really helpful to me
To be honest they both have their charm.
What's the music at 1:18?
The gain knob on an Orange amp can make 2 totally unique sounding guitars sound like the same generic one.
How different from one another yet so soothing!
none can't beat fender strat clean maybe another fender type model
Been an LP man all my life, but damn! I have to cave and admit that Strat sounds better at times!
Cleaner.
