You just can’t demonstrate this guitar any better ! Much respect !

I bought this guitar a few months ago. It was my absolute dream guitar played by Don Barnes of .38 special. I could never afford one until recently and I just love it. Plays, feels and sound great. If you are undecided BUY ONE! I'm sure you won't regret it.

This is by far this best demo I've seen on these little beasts. You've conpletely sold me on them. Thanks!

I bought mine in October and man.. it’s a beast!!!

By far the best demo of the guitar on KZfaq hands down. Straight to the point and amazing tones. Subbed!

So far, the best demo & playing I've seen as of 11-7-2018, showing the many voices of this gtr. Great playing. Thanks for the slow, clean playing & showing the variables within the high-moderate-low gain structures. Thanks for showing the tone knob use; pay attention to *EVERYTHING* this guy does, players. Good touch here. Thanks so much for an awesome video. Before this, I had written this gtr off; not anymore.

Really top notch playing, brilliant demo for this guitar.

Amazing video, no talking just great playing and no noodling Perfection

Finally!! At frustratingly long last.... OMG A perfect product demo. No 4 min virtuoso strained guitarist concert before even ONE product description.. Thank you for superb musical playing with clean, mild and drive added in echo & slide! The best of ... 10,000 Demo’s! Did I mention superb musicianship? Yes!

As I've stated in other videos. I own a real '58 TV and I bought this guitar 4 months ago. This guitar sounds only slightly different, not worse from my original which i no longer take on the road because of its value and it plays and feels great.Very close to my original. It is a Grand Slam for Gibson as far as I'm concerned. Great demo my friend. Great playing.

LOVE how you put her through the Paces, a Simple instrument, Great materials and Sound Craftsmanship makes this Baby nothing Short of a ROCK MONSTER!!! These kinds of Guitar's reminds me of my first REAL Guitar which was a 67 SG Jr.. There's Something about a Single Plank of Mahogany with a Single P - 90 Screwed to it that just Says ' I AM A BEAST! ' Anyways Thank you for Posting this Beauty. 🎸💚

I’ve owned a lot of Gibson’s over my 30 years of guitar collecting and playing and this is one of the most pleasurable guitars I’ve played it’s a simple rock n roll machine no Bells no whistles just a great sounding and playing guitar a home run for Gibson!!

Love the simplicity of this guitar.

To the first guy who plays in this video : Mate you are a top notch guitarist! ... that is likely the best content I've heard on the net as far as showing off the LP Jnr DC. Kudos I felt I was seeing new licks I'd never seen before!! Rock ON!!!!

That’s a killer video well done!

FANTASTIC demo, guys! A true breath of fresh air, after watching several others here on YT that range from "OK" to weirdly awful. Thank you for letting the guitar itself shine with simply a tube amp and no wacky effects and also without the seemingly ubiquitous use of TOO MUCH REVERB! I was solidly on the fence about these guitars, but ordered one five minutes after watching this! Let's hope I can do it the same justice you guys did. Cheers!

What a guitar for the money! Awesome playing and tone, thanks!

This tone is basically perfect. Great playing and sound.

Hocus Pocus by Focus for the intro. Sweet!

Best review have seen ..great playing and sounds from a beautiful simple guitar ..Gibson are doing some fine guitars again now ..lovely clean sound to ..gorgeous..Guitar like that really pushes you to think out of the box to ..Fingers and tone controls ..

Excellent playing!! A great guitar, I love mine!!

I've always wanted a Gibson, you convinced me to get this, sounds so ballsy

Great guitar ...cool demo ...stunning tones

Damn this playing and tone got me sold!

Great demo! Great guitar!

It sounds really great

I'm sold Bro' Great sound and playing

Awesome showcase for a les paul. Well done

awesome playing!!

This is perfect for playing some raw dirty blues.

The "Jesus Just Left Chicago" part was killer!

Amaaazing playing, boys! I love this model. I have to get one...and the single p90 one, too. I just last year bought a Gibson SG Special... and I love it....but it doesn't make sense to now go and downgrade to this. But it kinda does. This has the perfect weight and playability and the way it hangs, between an SG and an LP. NO neck dive... but not a back breaker, either. It's thick enough to provide those thick, juicy LP style rich tones... but you still get great high fret access with the DC. And I think it looks great in a minimalist way. It took a bit to grow on me..but now I'm.obsessed! I got a Gibson LP Tribute in 2018, and it cost me - just 3 years ago - the same price these DC's go for now. You'd think I'd be happy with the upgrades. And I am, believe me. But I've come to learn the values, as pointed out above, in its simplistic design. The final clinches are that its rugged appearance and cheap price tag make it so you won't mind bumping and nicking it too much. And if you think that's no small thing, you've never tried gigging your pride n joy LP or PRS! My SG Special is gorgeous in its' nitro faded Pelham blue finish (👈👈 o'er thar')..but a downside is that its like holding a new born baby. A DC Jr Tribute will have none of that. I gotta get one before inflation sends that price into the stratosphere. (there's s joke in that somewhere...) Yeah I'm sold! The red one.

Love all the classic ZZ Top licks in the jams

Great playing!

Perfectly placed knobs! Want one

The ZZ Top at 2:48 is extra nice well done.

Great slide playing Joel you made the guitar sing!

Gibson better give you all some free guitars after that excellent demo... amazingly done.

Great slide playing

Tasty playing and tone.

Great vid 👏👏

Great demonstration for 1-pickup-guitars.

That was great, I'm getting one simple as that.

I’m a tele guy, but I’d love one of these. Those distorted tones are awesome.

Wow absolutely fantastic 👍🏻

Jack you are a top guitarist!

Love the demo! I love the slide playing and I'm curious which tuning you are using? Thanks

Like the way he flips the guitar pick in and out.

Hocus Pocus by Focus! Yodel-ooo-hooo-yodel-lada-yodel 🎶

5:02 THAT CHORD CHANGE! Beautiful

Wicked sound!

Great demo. Not sure if I want this one or the model with neck pickup.

Got one on the way!

Love the tall narrow frets on my new 58 LP Reissue.. Never liked the low frets on my 52 Tele. Sold it. Why would they put low frets on this? Still might try one out for that P90's tone. Good price too..

Do I hear him riffing “Hocus Pocus” by Focus? How COOL! I just bought one of these guitars a couple of weeks ago...a one pick-up model in dark slate grey (brand new) for only $549.99. Love it! Try playing this Les Paul DC Junior Tribute thru an old tube amp cranked up to 10 for full sonic impact!

great playing - would prefer a mix between room and cab mic though if possible

The tone is awesome!

just picked one of these up in blue and this video doesnt do it justice (still a great video). this guitar feels really good in the hand and the p90 is super dynamic. honestly I'm still surprised at how many useable sounds come out of this single pickup guitar. defintely one of the better "budget" gibsons I've played

Sounds great - really liked the slide - I've been playing since the 80's and I still suck at slide lol 😄🖐️

hi. you mention how it should be played through a tube amp. how does it fare through a ss in your opinion?

Also, heard a little bit of "Acquiesce" by Oasis. Fine choice!

Good guitar, brilliant amp!

Some lovely playing in this video. What tuning is the slide in please?

Great demo and great playing. Joel are you in standard tuning or open G?.

Great video. I have a blue one...these are super fast players....

Imho a P90 is like a warm humbucker/single coil the bread and butter of rock and roll

Your vibrato is awesome !

Killer sounds! It just bugged me how the 2 pieces of Mahogany in the body seem to have very different colors. Any tip on how do these DC Tributes Junior/Special compare to the current SC Les Paul Special?

Brilliance !!!

The slide playing/vibrato reminds me of Rory Gallagher, Who’s That Coming 👌

If I could sound half as good as Jack.....I’d buy two!! ;)

Great guitar, great playing!

This is how you demonstrate a guitar everybody.

Good performance. What gauge strings do you guys prefer?

That's gotta be one of these cooler guitars Gibson had put together in a long time !?

He did the dang thang.

This guitar is cheaper than some Epiphones! Great sound and playing young man!

Wow ! Sounds fucking amazing!

Now I know why these are getting rave reviews. Simple, classic, fantastic tones right out of the box (in the right hands). Great demo!

Can anyone tell me what the weight is like on this beautiful guitars ? I am looking for something light . thanks david

That's awesome

Do these have the wide neck or the regular neck width

so my question is what color will i get?

Totally Awesome, could listen to you two guys play all days long. Play a little bit of Bon Jovi next time .... LOL 😄👍

Have mercy!

Jeez the price on that Surh Bagder wow

New subscriber here from New Orleans. Jesus just left Chicago, and He's bound for New Orleans! 😎😎😎😎

What's the first riff?

I played metal on my 61' through a 73' 6- EL34 SOUND CITY 120R. A very important ingredient though for that P90 pick up was the non-bypassable buffer stage in my Watkins Copicat Mk IV tape delay. They sell the buffer pedals of the ECHOPLEX, but the Copicat Mk IV is perfect! (uses square silicon bc109 transistors...2 iirc)...build one, easy! That buffer sweetened up my 65' Fender Bassman as well btw.

Shit man this is so good!!!! I don't want to buy another guitar.....but it's so nice.....

I approve

Did you guys not get the other two finishes in the UK?

Hocus Pocus by Focus!

4:00 Acquiesce!!!

I like my Hamer

Acquiesce!!!

Is the headstock still susceptible to breaking? Only reason ive not bought one

I can't understand the hate for Gibson in general and for this guitar in particular--this thing sounds fucking epic. I'm an older guy, I've heard it all, and this thing sounds terrific. Doesn't sound matter anymore? I keep hearing about the value of PRS blah, blah, blah. Have you LISTENED to a fucking PRS? They sound like ass, certainly the ones under $1,000 do. I'm tired of hearing about PRS's quality, value, etc. They're building a musical instrument not a piece of furniture; it should SOUND good. I've never heard anybody say, "Man, that PRS sounds sweet" or anything of the sort.

Nice guy

Awesome. Looking forward to Les Paul Marvel. Just kidding heheheh
