Please let us normal people know if Gibson comes out with a production line. This is the one guitar that would bring back to Gibson.
Spiral Out
🤘🤘🤘🤘
It's about time brother 🤣😂😸
Thanks Trogly for again an awesome show.... woohoo high✋ five
What is with the emotional with the scruffy beard and hair?
Ugly rediculessly over priced insanely over priced Only a Tool would fork out that kind of money for that dog!! Enough!!!!
If you market it right...you can sell anything to people!!!!
Even a ‘pandemic’
@@joermnyc People don't like to admit it, but the truth is that EVERYONE is a BRAND WHORE!
Why do you think people buy a BMW 323 instead of a top of the line Toyota?
Back in the 1920's, someone placed boxed ads in prominent US newspapers reading "Send $1 for absolutely nothing" and made a fortune, which just goes to prove "There is one born every minute"
Apple could take notes from Gibson.
@@CaptainCraigKWMRZ
Don’t underestimate the fact that maybe some blue collar people are skipping rent or mortgage payments because they “know” they won’t get evicted during the pandemic.
I used to work in retail and I saw it every time a new video game console was released. The fact is these guitars just like video game consoles can be flipped for a profit pretty easily once they are sold out.
One of the absolute least popular finishes of my time, still remember seeing them hanging collecting dust in the music stores.
SHOULD HAVE BOUGHT EVERY DAMN ONE !!
That aging job looks totally Unnatural. It's crazy how bad a job Gibson did with these at this price point.
After watching this, I think it might seem so anticlimactic for the people that were so hyped about these.
I agree. I don’t see it at all. I do see prices dropping soon tho. Once the Hypebeast’s eat.
I wasn’t hyped to begin with😏
What? What the fuck did you think it would be? As a huge Tool and Adam Jones fan this is an incredible guitar! I love the case too, they look so awesome!
Yeah they're cool but nothing I'm saving for.
Think of your favorite guitarist releasing a signature guitar that is also one of your favorite styles and there's the hype.
If I paid 10k for a Gibson custom and it had that mirror on it, I would sell it to one of the chodas online offering 20k for it. Then buy a real vintage silverburst, a modern silverburst, and put 12k in the bank.
I think its spelled “choades”
@@wrenchhead4378
There’s definitely variations on spelling and definition on “choades/choda” . I’ve been down that rabbit hole when me and a buddy got into ....a debate about it. 😂 But I’m partial to Choda because it rhymes with Yoda.
omg that's the worst relic job ive ever seen Gibson do! these are almost an inside joke..30k lol im laughing
I thought exactly the same...
@@tjailts You're worth a million dollars toe homie!
@@tjailts Eh, I'm not the biggest fan even when it's done right. But christ the adam jones ones are bad. Like even beyond how you feel about the process and philosophy, the technical skill there was just subpar.
Best $2,000 guitar ever that is being sold for way more. It’s literally a F’n les Paul. People are ridiculous
I paid $600 for my 79 standard back in 1982 brand new, still love it. But I'd never pay $2-3K or more for a Les Paul today. Gibsons pricing is rediculous, and theres really nothing that special on an arist model that justifies the insane prices. They play a Les Paul and maybe changed the caps or a pickup or the tuners. Those parts are stock on a reproduction/copy, so it's not like those parts cost thousands more off the shelf. You could buy a used guitar and put those same parts in for thousands less.
But the aged silver paint totally changes the tone of the guitar!
@@joshuadevries3459 the problem with the fake aging will change in 30-40 years, as that paint will now age just like the old original paint.
I'd take a three pickup black beauty over these any day.
For that kind of money you could buy a real vintage guitar and have a better investment. This is 'baseball card' marketing. Print or manufacture a limited amount , put a high price on it and hype it and wait for a strike. Gibson tries to con you that this is as desirable as a vintage guitar, which they can no longer make money from.
Or you could get any two of an R8, R9, or R0, and have _two_ guitars that are really worth playing, and haven't been pre-damaged for you. Or just commission your own Custom Shop guitar, for a true one-of-a-kind.
To be fair ,I'm old enough to remember being a youngster when Silverburst Customs were still looking silver and I hated them lol .
@@pulaski1 Most Gibsons and Fenders already arrive pre-damaged, low qc.
I totally agree but in fairness even the original silver-bursts have a crazy surcharge on them these days. Not sure if that was caused by the guy whos signature guitar this is or Trogly's videos professing his love for them. They sell (or are listed) for more than all the other finishes from that era. I would go for an original silver streak custom + a newer r9 for the price of one of these silly things (or even an original)
@@pulaski1 or you could buy any 6 gibson regular models that would sound about the same.
I hate silver burst. I’d much rather have a clown burst. Also the price, sheeessssshh. Insane. Just order a custom shop with these specs.
Lol
tool are all about the bass...guitars...drums.......and vocals.....also i would be happy with an hour long episode Austin!
Is there anything less rock and roll than an $8000 brand new replica guitar made for the collectors' market?
They already had that limited collectible album released last year.
If I remember right the Peter Frampton black beauty was selling for over $30,000!!

@@g.koch. well said
😂
You’re more Gibson than Gibson.
The Adam Jones LP (either one) is like the Klon of pedals---over-hyped and over-priced. Hard pass. Have fun, lawyers and dentists!
Agreed and i would argue that these are even more overhyped than the Klon!!
Over hyped but not by Gibson ! By unscrupulous dealers and traders. These guitars will no doubt be "in circulation" for years without being played .
At least the original Klon pedals were all made by a single guy.
@@DarkDare47 So what ?! He didn't use any special components . There is no magic ingredient . He's just greedy and people are dumb enough to believe the Klon is somehow better to the point where they would rather buy a frigging overdrive pedal than a tube amp lol !! He's laughing at them all the way to the bank . He would be suing the ass off all the companies producing clones, if he could, but that's not the way it is with pedal circuitry .
@@shaunw9270 I am saying it makes sense that they are expensive if one person produces them and should be less expensive if mass produced. I am not coming from a "magic dust" side, just from production side. I don't have a dog in the fight, the klon "sound" is not my favorite, and I am sure other companies have made a good if not better clones of circuit.
Never seen a Gibson arrive that well packed and I've had a few.
Personally, buying an aged guitar is like buying new jeans with holes already cut in them. I just don't get it.
My thoughts exactly! What is the point?
@@dgemstate5422 perhaps because its a limited release replica? hurr durr, you guys are so dense. It's why they released both versions.
Very cool, looking forward to the continuation! I have a Les Paul Custom in a vintage silverburst finish that came from the custom shop in 2016. Was a limited run and you don't see them often. Mine doesn't have the volute so it was probably based on a different year.
I honestly don't get the hype.
Kind of wish I'd picked up an original before the spiked, but the Adam Jones' seem pretty meh.
I'd personally get a ltd ec silver burst , this just ain't it for me , but the tool fan boys will be fan boys
@@metalheadblues I actually would want one that’s aged. I prefer it when the clear coat has “greened” the silver. But I get your point.
WORD dude...read my comment
I love Tool. They been bringing the best rock-metal since 92. Brilliant band. But as other commenters have pointed out, what's with this ultimate act of fanboy unoriginality? You would think Tool fans would think a little more. Just get a good solid guitar that speaks to YOU and find your own voice. Ok. It is a cool guitar, I dont think anyone argues that, Its the money. If THEY are willing to pay...
"I sold out long before you ever even heard my name, sold my soul to make a record..."
That’s a shame that #18 of the signed and ages Adam Jones was already bought, his silver burst was built on the 18th of December 1979
They were ALL already bought before it was even released.
"This video would be like an hour long..." he says while Tool fans are paying attention. Lol. I can't wait to see these on the bench and then the demo. They look beautiful.
Cool to finally get this episode! although it could be seen as a bit 'anorak'-y, if you're paying that money, you want it as close to original as possible. Major props to you for being so clued up on the minutiae of these instruments and the historical counterparts.
I'd rather have a real vintage silver burst. Not only will it have honest wear from decades of actual play but I wouldn't be afraid to really play it. But that's just me. I guess if you got the cash and it's what you want go for it, just don't drop the fricken thing! Thanks for your continued time and expertise Trogly, can't wait for part two!!!
You can also contact Seymour duncan custom shop to do you a ddj, and youd still have saved monies over the Adam Jones model
Totally agree, my bass (which is a 1983) has a ton of dents and dings all over. Not only does it given the bass it's own "personality" but I makes me less afraid to actually use it.
I can’t be the only person who thinks these are ugly guitars. I LOVE a les Paul, but these are ugly
I too dislike it strongly
I'd rather have one that stayed silver, but then it wouldn't be a signature Adam Jones I guess. Maybe make it a Bill Kelliher model, lol?
Fully agree. I have a 2008 silverburst and love it, this aged greenish color is gross. No way would I pay that crazy money for that guitar.
@@tjailts To each his own I guess. If nothing else, it keeps you from being too precious with your guitar...why worry about another ding? When done right, it makes the guitar feel broken in.
@Toxic Potato Moldy silver?
So Adam changed the direction of his strap buttons so the strap will fall off easier, that’s genius.
Back to back unboxing?? Hell ya!
The Unicorn Heads in the background was a nice touch. Great video!
Aha! Got here the second it got uploaded!
Hey Trogly. Today I saw an Epiphone Les Paul with a kind of "matte-ish" Silverburst finish. But it had the Gibson paint job on the body. I've never heard or seen anything about one. do you know anything about it?
The Silverburst Channel lol
Trogly has somewhat long history with silver burst....I think he said the first "expensive" guitar he bought was some limited edition (or custom shop) silver burst Les Paul, so....
I just can't do it... I can't pay a premium for someone to beat up my instrument for me... I get why it's done, and I can see why one would want a faithful recreation of one's idol's #1 down to the last sweat drop stain, but it's not for me. I like to buy nice stuff and strive to keep it nice. I do like the VOS aging, as it just gives the appearance of a naturally old guitar, but the relic? No thanks. If it's your thing, (and apparently, it is for many, haha) more power to you. We should all get the gear we want, and if you've got the coin, pull the trigger. I'll stick with my quilts, flames, and burls lol
@@primeDecomposition I definitely understand the worn in aspect of the relic process; that's the one component that makes the most sense about it.
Cool guitars. Can't see the price point personally,(not a Tool fan)
@ThatsRaidillonActually I have a Joe Bonamassa 335 sig only paid 2800 for it new. Memphis cs
I AM a Tool fan and I don't get the point. Too many people have too much money. But whatever makes them happy.
I love tool and I don’t see the price either. Can’t ever see myself buying one of these.
The geometric design on the back of the headstock represents Adam from the Fear Inoculum release. The limited edition CD's had a different design for each band member.
i have a set of those strap buttons that I've always had on my #1 guitar since 1981. They currently reside on a 1995 Les Paul Standard
Easy way to fake a seam line would probably be to use a stiff metal ruler (or something with a very straight, but not sharp edge, you’re trying to dent the finish, not cut into it) and gently tap it with a mallet.
The problem with that is that the guitar top is bellied. In order to do it it right you'd need a steel strip (ruler) that had been pressed to match the curve of the guitar top at the point that you want to put the line, then run a razor blade along the top using the steel as a guide. ..... Though I am not sure why Gibson couldn't just do a poor quality three-piece top with visible seam lines. Surely Gibson would be capable of shoddy workmanship - or is that only possible when it _isn't_ wanted?
Thank you so much for your channel. Nowhere does such great educated reviews. Incredibly interesting.
What does VOS stand for? Is it vintage original specs?
I love Tool, but these guitars represent a lot about what’s wrong in music and pop culture.
I think I know what you mean but do you care to explain?
They sold 100 bucks posters 1000 bucks signed at their recent european tour😂
@@mhl4886 "SEND MORE MONEY!"
I'm pretty sure the dents on top that you thought were from a bracelet are from a strap hitting it when it's put down. I have a Strat that has a bunch of dents in a line because my strap had a brass loop on it that hit the body when I put it down.
Ok, but emoji on the thumbnail scared me
Great work, mate👍
I would argue not just the most-hyped, but maybe the most over-hyped. To each their own, I realize a lot of people love these for some reason, but I am definitely glad I do not like these silver-bursts. They're not bad looking guitars by any means, they just aren't worth the surcharge in my opinion. I think the Silver streak and all-gold finishes are the coolest finishes from that era. Ferrari red was also pretty sweet, just more on the boring side
Trogly: "What makes Tool Tool . . . it's all about the bass."
Megan Trainor: "Excuse me?"
Danny Carey: Excuse me?
We gotta wait until Justin’s signature Wal bass that’s the real shit
That song had no bass and sucked but also, Tool is all about the drums
What is the mirror for?
What does VOS stand for?
At some point the Bridge pickup fails and send it over to rewound but it's a Jb (but the logo wear out) and the other it's a Jazz no logo vintage wire
What's the point of the little mirror?
How many cardboard cuts do you get opening all of these boxes?
There cannot be anyone alive who knows as much about guitars than you! Love your videos.
Hey Trogly, have you ever considered doing a review of the 2015 Epiphone Tony Iommi signature? I recently bought that guitar and found it to be quite good for an Epiphone.
Whether he reads em or not, ditto. I would like to see that review.
What’s the purpose of the mirror?
i cannot get along with a new looking silverburst. i just dont like the color combo whatsoever. but these aged greenish looking ones i totally dig. on a totally different note the pricing is astronomically insane. i am a huge Gibson fan, but cmon...10k right out the gate? hard pass.... this is why Fender is the "working mans" guitar. i personally own 1 single gibson guitar. would love another one. but the pricing just takes me forever to save up and i am not patient enough. i can get 2-3 custom shop fenders for this one adam jones les paul.and like i said im a big gibson fan but it almost never makes financial sense to me as im not an investor looking for a profit.
I bet your in heaven with the silverburst craze going on rt now
Are these gona age to a Iguana burst in 30yrs, il stick with my 10yr old silver burst thats actually silver ....
They didn't know the case was sticky? Or did it react with bubble wrap?
Hey trogly do you think you could review that billie eyelash signature fender uke?
@@CaptainCraigKWMRZ Remember when he opened for Bullet For My Valentine? 🤩
I had an L6S in silverburst, and Adam saw it and wanted to buy it because it matched his Les Paul. He explained to me that they were originally silver that turned green over time. Anyway, he balked at my 700.00 price tag! That was a long time ago. Nobody had any dough back then.
You've said in several videos that these were sold out before they were released. Some were actually available on release day direct from the Gibson website. I was on the Gibson website the day they were released, and I could see the aged and signed version available for about a half hour, and the VOS version was available for a couple of hours. Looking at the prices they are selling for already, I regret not getting one when I had the chance.
I love your honest reviews and that you are not afraid to say your opinion. There are so many unpacking videos online but without any critical comments.
If i would spend this amount of money I would expect an exact replica of a 79 custom in colour, weight etc. and a more realistic aging. The whole Hardware looks brand new.
Love Adam Jones and TOOL but this is a bit disappointing. Can‘t wait for your closer review.
Best,
SR
I’m wanting to see the Gibson les Paul acoustic without the visible pickups. There’s one on reverb for around £8000 I think
I'm really glad that I've bought the VOS one. The Aged and signed just doesn't look quite right somehow
I`ve never been so Underwhelmed by both a guitar finish I`ve never seen, & and an artist I`ve never heard of, & folks are fighting over them-REALLY! I`ll be over here in the corner playing my Pacifica!
yamaha boys rise up
Nothing beats the originals. The ‘81 is my favorite out of all of them because of the smaller teardrop burst.
You are correct
Guitar companies like Danelectro did those kinds of solid bursts on cheap guitars to cover crap wood and Formica back in the day. If I was spending that kind of money on a Lester, I would want a burst, or a finish that shows the grain.
I don't really understand all that hype...
Mannn... thanks a lot troglys, I'm starting to really drool over all these silverbursts. I love the colour that the silver ages to. VOS looks nice too.
Just an FYI for you collectors, there's an '81 for local sale near me and it still looks quite silver, case queen most likely. It's on Kijiji in Alberta if anyone interested. I don't have enough money to offer the guy rn, or I would have already hehe.
I unfortunately lucked out,on this Adam Jones run,but now I own a real 1979 silver burst custom,that's been played in for twenty years,by a famous guitarist,Mark Gemini Twait!!!!🤘🤘🤘
It deserves to play a Smashing Pumpkins' song on that silverburst.
am i colourblind or am i looking at a goldburst?
10:56 my guess of how the latch came out done is by the filler material either when they packed it or when you unpacked it filler material must have grabbed the latch in the right way. Unless I'm brain-dead and there was no filler material in the box 😄
It's really cool to see these reviewed together. Personally, I do not understand the appeal of a pre-aged guitar, I think that look should be earned. Even when you buy a used guitar with that much wear you know someone really worked it.
Man, I wish I could lend you my VH4 for the play through video. I bought it second hand from a guy who used to play in Chicago’s Tool Tribute band. This is going back YEARS ago, but according to him it was actually modified by Peter Diezel so channels 2 and 3 sound like Adam’s Blue Face.
$10k for that?
I heard about the adam jones and gibson collab last year and was hyped for a new looking silverburst. I cant get down with the already aged look since it will look ancient in the years to come.
I don’t mind either silver burst I think they both look between cool and just okay, now granted I’m not sure about the price situation I have like no frame of reference in regard to that
Great work finding all of these instruments in a timely fashion and getting videos out why they're still burning up the guitar internet. Austin, honestly - you need be consulted by Gibson for your knowledge of vintage instruments. Are you listening Gibson???
Wonder if we will see an Epiphone version?
Would anyone buy one with a 8 inch black hair on the face of the guitar? I found one..but the hair in the finish has me gun-shy of pulling the trigger on buying it.
Ooohhhhh yeah sooooo have been waiting for this video thank God
I bought a Gibson les Paul custom in 1984. Ferrari red. Unfortunately the glue they used inside case reactivated the lacquer and guitar finish was ruined.
I wonder what it would cost to get a 79 silverburst and make it like his.
Simply beautiful 😍...I wish I could get my hands on one 💜
I love this channel! Thank you for the honest review!
Quick Question. Is the aged version also lighter in weight? I'm surprised to hear this with the VOS model. The original Silverbursts are back breakers.
Yeah its cool, but its cool like finding airwalks at kmart cool when you cant afford them. Or finding a Canadian quarter when you need a regular quater. I'd probably do anything to get one though...maybe.
The little swirly star shaped thing is a heptagram.
Why is the hardware so perfect on the aged and signed?? I like the VOS more than the aged and signed. I think prices are going to crash. Doesn’t live up to the hype!
That's the pentangle from inside the spaceship in Quatermass and the Pit 1967
For the price of the VOS they could’ve included a signed COA. (I get that the other one was going to be more expensive and all of that stuff and maybe people wouldn’t pay for it since it was the only model with a signature. But I’m not talking about having the Guitar sign I’m just saying have the signature in the COA booklet.)
Is the headstock angle norlin era? No one ever mentions this.
Also couldn't tell, did they get the volute right?
Tom morello strat-YOU JUST HAVE TO STICK THE SOUL POWER DECAL ON!!
Adam Jones Les Paul-I don’t want to mar the finish so I won’t stick that on
I love LPs and deep down don’t care about Adam Jones signature but for some reason am intrigued 😂
It is always Christmas here everyday.
Even the price on used Epiphone Les Paul silver bursts are going up.
The binding on both Adam Jones is stark white.... what are these things. I thought they were going to be aged?????
I love the videos keep up the good work
Welcome back, chocolate ice!
please review the jeff tweedy signature sg
I got one of the Aged ones I'm having it refinished right now
Okei so 6000 bucks and the case has defects 😂 good old Gibson...
You mean to tell me that the cases were damaged and Gibson still put them on the shelves? That’s just asinine.
