A little Les Paul/SG correction: Les Paul didn't "hate" the new body shape of the LP guitars; Les preferred the classic single cut shape because it felt more sturdy. Les' name was removed after 1963 due to his contract ending with Gibson while he was in mid divorce with Mary Ford (re-signing with Gibson would only complicate the divorce). In 1964, the new LP guitars got the new name "SG", then when Les came back on board with Gibson in 1968, the demand for the single cut was gaining momentum and they re-released it with Les' name on it again. However, the "SG" was so popular by that time with it's own fan base, they kept the SG as a stand alone guitar and the rest is history. Fun fact: The 1961 Les Paul (SG body shape) is THE ONLY Gibson guitar that has been produced every single year since it's inception!!!!!!
Thanks for telling the truth, Les had his name removed because he didn't want Mary Ford to get any more of his money. She was also a part of the Gibson endorsement deal. The deal said that they couldn't be seen in public with anything but Gibson guitars. If you look back at olp footage and pictures Mary Ford played a white 61 or 62 Les Paul custom with gold hardware
I believe this was the guitar Kirk used for Fade to Black and Sanitarium on the Damaged Justice tour, you can see it on the Seattle 89 performances. It’s absolutely insane that you were able to get an opportunity to play it!
That was a different LP Custom. That one was a new (at the time) model that had EMGs and no pickguard. Kirk still has that guitar from my understanding.
@@GoldCobra487 yup, he didn,t use the guitar of the video for the Justice tour, that's not true! you can see that LP that he use on seattle live on the live of Nimes 2009

Publish the videos. You won't be devaluing the guitar rather just selfishly keeping the footage for yourself. What if that footage degrades or becomes unplayable? It'll become lost media. Share it with the world.
I’m no expert, but I have listened to a lot of “experts” talk about Les Pauls…as far as I can tell, KDH, you nailed it on the history, details and specs…well done my man!!
I work at the auction company that sold the Kirk Hammett "One" guitar the gentleman in the video spoke of. I got to see it as it was being packed for shipping. It was a beautiful piece! The unfinished wood looked so soft. Very exciting to see that guitar in person.
3:43 they're worn out lol if it wasn't such a significant guitar I'd refret it or just give the frets a crown again. But being what it is it should be left alone as long as it's still playable. I'm in the camp of thinking that frets, while not as expendable as strings they are a consumable playing surface that is designed to be replaced.
Lucky you, KDH! I have a "fretless wonder" SG made in 1967. It's so easy to play. Never understood the need for jumbo frets. And I also forgot how great "For Whom the Bell Tolls" is. "Helpless" is my favorite Metallica song.
"Helpless" is a Diamond Head song, Bruv... Also, the jumbo frets is something I kinda never liked or understood, even when a lot of "guitar experts" tried to explain how much sense it does make.
@@onerandombruh He said it is his favourite Metallica song. It doesn't matter if it is a cover, and you don't need to be a fan of the original band/musicians. Elvis didn't write all of his songs, and if someone said Blue Suede Shoes is their favourite Elvis song, it doesn't mean they have to be a Carl Perkins fan. Of course l would listen to Carl Perkins over Elvia any day, and would never intentionally listen to Elvis. No offense intended of course. Have a great night.
Still one of my favorite solos of all time!! That and Don't Tread On Me!! I used to rewind and listen to those solos over and over and over and over as a kid.......!🙌🎸🙌
Might I add, this is probably what you can see on the most badass concert captured by Metallica (or one of 3 besides '91 Moscow and '92 San Diego) which is '89 Seattle!! If you watch Welcome Home (Sanitarium) and Fade to Black from that show, there's a good chance you're watching this very guitar in action!
It’s possible. It’s also possible that it was used as a backup at least in Seattle or maybe not at all. Pretty hard to tell but during the solo after the first chorus in Sanitarium we get a good shot of the guitar. The pickups and the knobs are different and in certain shots the tuners look a little too shiny to be the same guitar. Sure they had full time techs at their Beck and call but the big question is the frets. I don’t know Kirk but at the time I’m not sure he would’ve used a 1969 fretless wonder out on tour. Of course he has no problems doing it now. Props if he did. Low fret guitars are very hard to play.
Love the channel- visiting Ireland in a few weeks and am hoping to check out some of the music stores you’ve been featuring. Thanks for the great content!
The God That Failed solo must be one of my favourite parts on the whole black album. I love that song. Well played. If only I had a spare quarter of a million quid...
Hey Patrick! The only reason I'm on the channel is cos you put me on to KDH. Thanks very much for that and for the support you have given me with my channel so far. I'm still plugging away : ) Hope you're keeping well.
Love your videos, but man I hate that story about Les Paul being disgusted by the SG body shape. He appeared on several promotional pics with it too! I'm certain that the story about "hey, I'm getting a divorce so we need to end the contract Gibson, so I don't want that too split in half" makes much more sense.
There is also a story that his promotional contract had expired and he was upset about the unauthorised use of his name. The divorce story sounds the most plausible thou.
KDH just found your channel man,,no body is doing the topics you do keep the channel up..could u do an episode on how everybody shits on jackson guitars now?I loved six string tvs episode on why the hate for b.c. rich and figured youd have more info on jackson guitars.
I've had the pleasure of playing a couple of 70s Les Paul Customs and they were beautiful playing guitars, made me feel like a much better player than normal
Very informative and your playing is excellent and inspiring. I remember finding a fretless wonder at a guitar shop and thinking that blues bends were just never gonna happen.
68 was pretty much on par with the 50s and 60 led Paul being an exact copy, in 69 is when things changed like construction of the guitar and such. That's why 68 Les Paul guitars are much more valuable than the 69 model year along with 68 also having a unique error in which some were made with the crown on the head stock veneer instead of the silk screen Les Paul Model.
But it's the Bursts that are so valuable and desired, not the Customs. They are different guitars. And even though the Custom was originally more expensive, they are worth significantly less than the Bursts today. Not that any of it really matters. There were some great LPs made from 58-60, some great ones in 68, and some great ones today. The biggest differences are rarity, desirability, and history.
@@ChrisEck13 the burst are only valuable cause of the player who used them and the low production number compared to the previous years. Many iconic players used early gold tops to great success and a lot more used customs due to the 3 pickup configuration which was unique at the time.
@@agcacustoms2852 I agree. If Clapton/Beck/Allman/Richards/Page had used 57 Goldtops to record their most famous albums at the time, we'd all be gushing about the Goldtop today. Bursts aren't any more special than the other LP models of the time, it just so happens that certain players happened to play them on albums which became legendary. That's it, imho.
@@Nghilifa the burst are literally the same guitars as the 58-60 burst just having less figured tops or having multi pieces tops at times. It was only halfway through 58 that they started making the burst which the first half being gold tops. They certainly weren’t magic just guitars that were cheap at the time since no one wanted them and since one guy played it and someone else liked it it stuck.
@@agcacustoms2852 The bursts had (and still have) maple tops though, the body of the custom was all mahogany, the fretboard was also made out of ebony instead of rosewood. That said, they're mostly identical (I don't buy into the whole tonewood nonsense).
Interesting how some players have an easier time with lower frets and feeling the wood, while others scallop the board and use jumbo frets to feel as little wood as possible
I thought that guitar part on "For Whom the Bell Tolls" was played at the 11th position. It is the same shape as the outro to "Children of the Grave" (Black Sabbath).
That's awesome, such a beautiful-looking guitar and has such a cool history. Definitely jealous you got to demo such a cool piece of heavy metal history
Kinda like the Steve Vai NFT, you own it, you own the footage. I do agree that it would be nice to have it released, but it's much more exclusive and mystique this way
I remember in the late 90s I found out James used Earth 3 straps and I looked everywhere for one with no luck. I completely forgot about those straps till this video, so cool.
Just a plain old black Les Paul custom is still in my top three favorite guitars.. I mean Les Paul customs are my favorite guitar it's literally just the finish that puts it in three although I always used to be my first favorite you really can't go wrong with a black Les Paul custom
Chances are he played the LP Custom on Sanitarium and Fade to Black. I've watched Binge and Purge enough to know he used on of his Floyd Rose equipped KH Shape on Bells.
When the Les Paul Custom was Reissued in 1968 they added a maple top to it so it should have a maple cap. That's what makes the 68 Reissues different to the 57 reissues you can get today.
I remember Kirk playing this guitar at the Market Square Arena in Indianapolis, Indiana for the ...And Justice For All Tour 1988. I remember it well because this show was on Thanksgiving Day and my mother wasn't to happy about it. Needless to say, the show was amazing. Metallica didn't have an opening act so they jammed over 3 hours! (and my mother eventually got over it lol) Right on and rock on! \m/
This was a cool video to watch man! Great job on "The God That Failed solo as well. It really showcases how Kirk wrote memorable solos. I went to Berklee in Boston and some guys dug Kirk, and some shunned him. I've always been a Metallica fan, so I didn't care! 🎸🎼
I really enjoyed your channel and all information you do on all guitar stuff and Thank you, I love Dimarzio Super Distortion on all Les Paul Customs and Les Paul Standards to and Studios to, and what gauge strings are you using on the Custom? Thumbs 🆙 Great Video. Thank you so much.
So as a metal player usually we like jumbo frets.. and I do like jumbo frets but I have played fretless wonders before and honestly there's something about them that are really fun to play on
