    Just a heads-up lads: Music City Bridge make compensated wraparound tailpiece for these guitars that will completely resolve any intonation issues. The hardware was designed with input from the legendary Tom Bukovac. They have two models: "Stud Finder" and "The Savvy". Use Stud Finder on Gibsons with wraparound tailpieces from 1953 through 1960. The Savvy should be used on models from 1961 onward and is compatible with both slight offset and parallel studs designs

    After watching this a few dozen times and being a Epiphone guy for years I purchased a used Gibson LP 50s Tribute (for actually less money than a new Epi LP Standard Pro). There really is a tone and playability difference between the two brands. Epiphone is good Gibson is great (even on the more affordable models). Epiphone does win in the looks department over base model Gibson’s but you can’t really look at them while playing so....

    • @DanielBohuslav
      @DanielBohuslav 4 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@TheJimty Wow, I'm actually contemplating the same but it sounds insane... I have a 58 CS Les Paul and it sounds the best. But lately I've been feeling that it feels a bit too delicate and awkward to play for me, not comfortable so I always end up playing my Telecaster instead. So I was thinking of selling the LP 58 and getting a Special instead. What is your experience compared to the 58?

    • @TheJimty
      @TheJimty 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Dan - I don’t miss my 58 at all to be honest. It was a great guitar - I tried a bunch and it was the best one I played - but like you I didn’t ever feel comfortable playing it. It felt like a piece of furniture. I feel much more comfortable and inspired playing the Special - it just has the tone (and range of tones) I’m looking for, has better sustain and feels more alive to me. Play a bunch and you will find the one. Unfortunately “the one” for me was a custom shop too, so the 58 had to make way. I don’t regret it though.

    The T.V. yellow has two true stories of it's history. The one most repeated is the one Cap told here, the other is that part of the making it cheaper process was in cheaper finishes. At the time these guitars were being made, that "blonde" color lacquer was popular in the furniture making industry, especially on televisions, (T.V. yellow) which means there was a large amount of that color being made and it was available for cheap. The fact it worked great on black and white television was a happy coincidence.

    I seem to remember reading somewhere that Seth Lover's aim in creating the PAF humbucker was to make a noise-free replacement for P-90s. All these many years later and the "lowly and noisy" P-90 is not only still here, but seems to rock harder than ever.
    I also remember a Schecter catalog which featured a PT (Schecter's T-type guitar) which sported a humbucker bridge pickup, a Strat-style single coil in the middle, and a P-90 neck pickup. I'd LOVE to get my hands on a guitar with THAT configuration!
    Out of the guitars you demo'ed, which one(s) would I like? Well, for me there's only one choice: The Les Paul Special! I personally don't consider single-pickup guitars, and I prefer the Les Paul shape to the SG shape hands down! That said, all 4 rock like a mutha!

    You had me at hello. I loved this video. I have a weakness for Juniors and Specials. NOTHING sounds like a P-90, baby!
    My favourite guitar here is either the T.V. Yellow Special *or* that Tobacco Junior, which is just gorgeous. Both have there own thing and unique tone. I would really have a hard time deciding between the two- I’d want them both!

    The Capt'n's chops are great here. I used to have a mid 70's LP special and a 90's TV one. The 70's one was awesome. Phillip Sayce sometimes plays a 60's SG Jr. with the single pickup sometimes.

    I just had the pleasure of seeing Lukas Nelson (Willie's son) and his band at a music festival, and the sound he got out of his 1956 Les Paul Jr. was truly spectacular, one of the best I've heard live, and I've been lucky enough to see Eric Clapton, Robert Cray, B.B. King, Buddy Guy, and Gary Clark, Jr.

    I really hope Pete satisfies his P90 GAS soon!
    I played the LP special and it felt wonderful, although if I was to buy one it'd be the SG.
    And, oh yes, pelham blue! So... authentic... sigh

      Dexter Rutecki idk about Gibson but I had a rocknroll relic with one tailpiece. No tuning issues at all. No qc issues but was overpriced as well but played perfect. Gibson said stop making them or we will sue you so I got the last one. It played like butter but I sold it because the neck sticks so far to the left it was uncomfortable at least for me.
