Too many of these old treasures being hoarded by collectors and sitting in vaults. Great to see this one out in its natural environment, doing what it was born to do.
I agree. Whether it’s classic cars or vintage guitars, if you trailer these cars to car shows or hang these guitars in a glass case, I get the same enjoyment as the owner because we’re all just standing around looking at them. And I didn’t have to shell out megabucks to purchase them or insure them. Thanks, Jason, for putting it through it’s paces on a regular basis.
So true. Norman at Normans rare guitars is worse than the Diamond companies in creating a fake market...he has a warehouse of these beautiful instruments.
So glad you got this guitar Jason because you can do it justice. The tone is amazing! So many classic sounds off of the records we all grew up on and loved. And you are a great artist, songwriter, and musician in your own right. Brilliant stuff man!
Right! Got the vintage 59 burst and 50 watt Marshall in the cart. Anyone have a link to the ability to play like I’ve practiced 8 hours a day for 25 years? I’m ready to pull the trigger on the purchase
The magic about ‘Burst (the average that is good, when ‘good’ is fantastic, and the ones that are epic, where you are in the out of this world range) is about being so FULL but with THAT clarity and definition of every harmonics the guitar produces. These guitars sound like... a rainbow.
Just look back on the video interviews Ed did at the end of his life. He played the guitar, he shared it, it was something he loved. He wanted it to be played. It couldn't have found it's way somebody who appreciates it more and will use it.
So glad I stumbled onto this video. Great job, Jason, I really enjoy your playing and how you approach owning this guitar. You and Sadler really bring it!!
I love guitar, it just keeps giving, it’s like they connect you to some higher magic, even if you aren’t even all that good. Just sit down with a beer or a cup of tea and a lose yourself in that shit. x
What a great vid. Great that he goes through so many settings. So glad he found a way to get this and give us all a really giddy spin with it. PS So much buzz... My Marshall 50w stack is not a s noisy
False, Page was way into his recently-acquired 59 Les Paul by the time recording for Led Zeppelin III began, and there's tons of video of him using the LP for live recordings of SIBLY as well. It's LP with vintage PAFs all the way on this.
@@antipsychosoup6709 true he had his 59 by Zep 2 that Joe Walsh gave which he did most of Zep 2 on. Wut he used live has nothing to do with wut he used in the studio.He also used the Tele on the solo to Stairway to Heaven on Zep 4. Itz possible Page had access to a Les Paul with PAF'S but I never heard about it or seen it in a picture which doesn't mean squat anyways but anything's possible
That sounds loud even through my laptop speakers :) Amazing guitar, super interesting instrument, great playing and tone....but my custom shop Les Paul sounds pretty similar...It's still just a guitar (With a HUGE history behind it)...
Depends on the guitar n what Jimmy's feelin. On mine its fun in the middle with the neck on 7, then tweek the bridge into a sweet spot. Fer leed you bump the bridge to 10, then theres the straight bridge position on 10, lil slight boost. But in the middle you get 90% what you need. Infinately fun!! Mines n ol 74
In all the live versions that exist on video page clearly starts on the neck for the first notes then switches to the middle and then on to the bridge . Also page did not use les Paul's with his supro he used his tele with the supro.
One of the best ive heard, but if you listen close, it sounds very different to your normal 59....The PAFS, have a completely distinct tone...And while im writing this, his friend said the same thing...It doesnt sound like PAFS to me, i know they are but something is different..
Needed a good room mike, great to see a real Marshall flat out. There are a lot of great reproductions of this model guitar. So many good sounds. Clean boost the neck pickup.
I HAVE LES PAULS FROM EVERY DECADE THEY ALL SOUND GREAT NOT ONE SOUNDS BETTER THAN THE OTHER,YOU DON'T NEED A VINTAGE INSTRUMENT TO SOUND GOOD, 4030-23
My 50 watt Marshall will tear your head off. As we all know, 100 watt Marshalls are near impossible to be next to. But this is known. great fiddle right there.
@@05645ci No doubt. or a power soak off camera perhaps. I fired my 50 watt JCM last night and it is still quite brutal. Made even more so by a recent re-cap and slight mod that makes it a touch darker.
Flipping the pickup around does nothing to alter phase . Peter greens guitar was out of phase becuase the magnet got installed wrong after one of the coils had to be rewind and was rewound with formvar wire so it had one coil with plain enamel wire and one coil with formvar wire and the magnet fipped . Flipping the pickup alone does nothing to alter phase and installing the cover wrong does nothing to alter phase either .
Great playing Jason. But you lost me at a pedal demo. I wish you would have just went straight into the 50 watt and let us hear the guitar and the tone created by your playing!
Sounds great but reminds me of when I use my Marshall with a hotplate but have it turned up a little too much into full on saturation or with the bass turned up too much. I don't know maybe they jumpered the channels? I know it can sound better but still pretty damn cool. Love Redeye. Great players for sure and nice guys. I enjoyed it fella's. Not complaining just saying I have heard that sound before.
Should anyone reading this be a collector of vintage guitars but not a player.. I will gladly be a custodian, And I will make beautiful music in your honor. Kidding not kidding.
That crazy hollow woody bite saw tooth thing... yeah, no new Gibson does that. My 8.8 lb prehistoric reissue flame top is the closest with the Shaws but, no purple wire doesn't have that smoothness that real PAF's have. Still close than any boutique like trobak arcane doyles so many more can't name them all but, it's the light old dry wood and the right pickup design. Gibson's custombucker 3's and the dense wood makes them all sound dead.
Too many of these old treasures being hoarded by collectors and sitting in vaults. Great to see this one out in its natural environment, doing what it was born to do.
So true. I can’t believe Joe Bonamassa has so many.

I’m not really a fan of Joe’s music, but I do admire his collection and the fact that he actually uses his collection.

That includes Pearly Gates. When was the last time you saw that one. Not owned by a lawyer or a “collector”. Dude never shows it.
So true. Norman at Normans rare guitars is worse than the Diamond companies in creating a fake market...he has a warehouse of these beautiful instruments.
I love it when great guitars end up in the hands of great guitar players ... and I bet the guitars do, too
Fucking hell, that bridge pickup through the marshall is fucking absurdly good.
Fantastic guitar...an absolute treasure !
So glad you got this guitar Jason because you can do it justice. The tone is amazing! So many classic sounds off of the records we all grew up on and loved. And you are a great artist, songwriter, and musician in your own right. Brilliant stuff man!
I wish I could give an extra thumbs up for the appearance of Sadler f'n Vaden!

Plays since I’ve been loving
Me: eyes welting
Him: yeah I think that’s about right
My wife: are you crying?
Me: i think the tone is cutting onions idk
Thanks for sharing this beautiful 59!! So nice to see people actually playing them!!
One of the best parts about 2020 with stuff like this
What a nice guy, a very fortunate one as well thanks for sharing all your memories and information on the 59 👍🏻 it’s gorgeous 👍🏻
So much fun. You guys made my heart smile today. Thanks.
It has a crisp sound bringing clarity to each individual note when played , and chords tend to blend notes into a slight distortion.
Just look back on the video interviews Ed did at the end of his life. He played the guitar, he shared it, it was something he loved. He wanted it to be played. It couldn't have found it's way somebody who appreciates it more and will use it.
Only 630 subscribers on Sadler’s channel, the dude is a monster on guitar.....
Both killer guitar players. Thanks fellas!
we are all suckers for the old guys and their gear ! Great playin' ! Congrats man !
What old guy ??
You are doing some great playing on it and thanks for giving us the full show of what a burst should be.
That’s the closest most accurate “Money For Nothing” Intro I’ve heard on TH-cam.
Holy shit. That guitar/amp combo is a monster!
I don't play guitar but i love this one. Yes Jason Isbell and DBT are on my top list -ever. 25 envy ppl disliking, nice.
So glad I stumbled onto this video. Great job, Jason, I really enjoy your playing and how you approach owning this guitar. You and Sadler really bring it!!
A couple of great players, very inspiring! Thanks you guys!
Thanks for the vid fellas! Good times.
"Weird birthday gigs in the Hamptons" I could only imagine. Tell me more please.

Ah yes, the Tomatotone. My personal favorite. It goes good with everything.
That 59 is gorgeous. Awesome tone too
When he said about the half cocked wah sound. That’s how Mick Ronson set his sound for Bowie on Ziggy Stardust.
Homework done by these boys!
What an axe👍great player and he’s got a sense of humour to boot.
TomatoTone! Jsson must be a fan of Dan & Mick (That Pedal Show). ☺️
that last little jam was sweet :)
Ed King would be proud.
Great Video Guys ! Thanks
Imagine Jason put out a classic rock album...
He rocks out in his live shows. I saw him do a long cover of Whpping Post with this guitar.
Does anyone know what brand the blue les paul case in the background is?
Amazing to hear. I think Gibson got the MHS humbuckers very close. How does it feel to put a ding in a guitar that expensive?
So fun !! Informative, inspiring.
Thanks guys.
What a great vid. Great that he goes through so many settings. So glad he found a way to get this and give us all a really giddy spin with it. PS So much buzz... My Marshall 50w stack is not a s noisy
Jimmy page used his telecaster on since I been Loving you & manually adjusted the volume knob
That's what I think
please cite your sources
If you can’t hear that PAF squish on the opening lines, you ain’t got ears

Proper playing and tone, guys! Those cranked amps are the real deal.
That sounds loud even through my laptop speakers :) Amazing guitar, super interesting instrument, great playing and tone....but my custom shop Les Paul sounds pretty similar...It's still just a guitar (With a HUGE history behind it)...
Your guitar jam at the end. Was really good, can hear the tellicaster stratocaster differences loud and clear on lead and rythm
Well, that certainly is some sick tone...what a sick and twisted fella. Cheers to that!
Love guitars and sneakers. Glad to see you rocking the Jordans

Awesome that he is demoing red-eye playing some Zep!!!
the Fender jam was great
that Bridge PAF really does have the "3D" thing going on that the cork sniffers talk about
HOW. IT’S. DONE!
Love the Cincinnati chili reference.
In all the live versions that exist on video page clearly starts on the neck for the first notes then switches to the middle and then on to the bridge . Also page did not use les Paul's with his supro he used his tele with the supro.
whats the riff at about 20:40 - i've heard it so often but can't place it
“American Woman” by The Guess Who.
@@reddsshaker3477 thank you!
What the hell is jason doing around 30:28? To get that sustain/ebow type ring? Is there a name for this technique?
Its literally just feedback...from the sheer volume of that amp no doubt
Ahhh that makes more sense haha must be loud as fuck
That was really interesting to hear.
What is the name of the pedal?? Chase?

2 things...
I’ve been pronouncing Isbell wrong for years
When you top wrap, do you screw the tailpipe all the way down?
Yep
Thanks Jason, great stuff + a little Big Star
I remember the first time seeing you with DBT in Denver playing the hell out of a Gretsch! Rock on 🤘
What was the first thing / riff that Sadler played?
Since I've been loving you by Zep.
What rig is he playing through.
50w Marshall on 10.
I know it's not polite to ask, but how much did this guitar cost? This video was so satisfying I can't explain it.
One left testicle.
$400,000 to $500,000
I've heard that he got it for 250k but that's just what I've heard I'm not positive
@@dnews9519: Probably about right.
Chicago music exchange-Carter’s emerald city in Seattle
Jimmy can we get a verification?!” Neck?? Or middle position?? Or not indeed a Les Paul at all??? 😮
My 50 watt Marshall will tear your head off. As we all know, 100 watt Marshalls are near impossible to be next to. But this is known. great fiddle right there.
my 20 watt silver jubilee will run you off too; I think he didn't tell us that guitar volume is on 3

I heard that it was accidentally reverse wound.
I don't get why the Imperial is on the stage, and zoomed in, I'd they don't play it
Played the strat but that guitar was still stolen when I rented one of Ed's house
Sadler's pinky!!
Nice guitar
Great playing Jason. But you lost me at a pedal demo. I wish you would have just went straight into the 50 watt and let us hear the guitar and the tone created by your playing!
Nice, nice, nice....
Ed King's guitar!
For anyone that cares Ed King Really liked WIZZ pick ups Because he felt they were closest to the old PAF👍 Pretty confident he would know😂
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏💪💪💪💪💪🤘🤘🤘🤘
So this entire demo was going through a pedal, if so , why? I would love to hear the instrument cleanly no pedals.
what happen to the rubber gloves? are they super spreaders?
No way in hell the SIBLY intro is in the middle position
The Tele sounds better than the 59
Just noticed his strap has a little red eye on it too.
Peter greens guitar tone is..
As soon as you put on the mask, I was out of there! I thought the guitar was too much until I seen that.
Sounds great but reminds me of when I use my Marshall with a hotplate but have it turned up a little too much into full on saturation or with the bass turned up too much. I don't know maybe they jumpered the channels? I know it can sound better but still pretty damn cool. Love Redeye. Great players for sure and nice guys. I enjoyed it fella's.

Should be called the Ed King redeye. JMO.
Guitar cost so much he can’t afford shampoo 😂 what a beauty
Great guitar, but thats a lot of hiss lol 50w tube cranked is nuts
Reminds me of Porter Wagner for some reason
Should anyone reading this be a collector of vintage guitars but not a player.. I will gladly be a custodian, And I will make beautiful music in your honor. Kidding not kidding.
Hey, Jason, whatever you're paying Sadler is money well spent!
Jason has entered middle age and it's charming lol

I have a 50 Ultra phonic Dumble for sale in case you want another one Jason im in Texas holla....
Neck position for sure!
Redeye is bad ass. Isbell looks and sounds like Bill Clinton
Hey Sadler take my dog for a walk...
