Used by iconic guitarists to make some of the most important guitar-based music in history, it's not hard to see why the 1959 Gibson Les Paul is arguably the most prized electric guitar ever made. Stories about its otherworldly tone, feel, and sustain have been sung for decades by players lucky enough to encounter one.
Duke is playing through a Victoria Victoriette 1x12 combo for clean tones and a 1970 Marshall Super Bass 100w head and 2x12 cab for dirty tones.

Duke is tops. The guitar is beautiful and his playing would make anything sound great. Just happens to have a stellar guitar as well.

So nice to hear a Les Paul - any Les Paul - demoed in a way that actually reveals the character of the instrument, instead of with roaring distortion. Very tasteful playing. Thank you.

A Les Paul and a good Deluxe Reverb are hard to beat,... the Victoria being a single channel hand wired take on the Deluxe Reverb of course :-) such epic tones... phenomenal rig with a phenomenal player...!! Well done!!

that's a leftover from the old style leather strap lock. the screw and washer were left in place after the button was relocated to the heel long ago.

Picked my ML lightly aged ‘59 up a few weeks ago. What an astonishing instrument. It feels fully played in now and giving out tones exactly like this one (even looks exactly the same - dirty lemon ‘burst). Gibson are most definitely back to the top of their game these days.

@davestephens8033 4 ай бұрын

I wonder if it was presented as a Chinese replica, how many people would bash it simply because they aren't really listening and saying some guitar is a 1959 LP automatically is going to get likes for it no matter how it sounds. This amp doesn't sound very good to me, sounds like printed circuits. I did a test KZfaq video not that long ago with one of my replica PAF sets in a vintage Elitist LP made by Gibson in JAPAN, and asking people to guess what year vintage 'Burst it was. All of them made guesses what year it was and none of them could tell it wasn't vintage at all. The mythology of vintage Les Pauls runs really deep now. Back in the early 60's they were only worth about $300 and nobody thought they were anything special......until a couple famous players scooped them up, and with their TALENT and the great tube amps of the time, turned them into being worth more than gold. Getting that sound is not impossible at all.

Ok, post up a video. I’ll be waiting to hear the tones you claim to be able to acheive.
