Ridiculous comment . Les Paul's would still reign supreme if Slash didn't even exist .

@@2216sammy Read some more guitar history... Slash did actually saved an unpopular brand in the late 80s.

No argument

🤦‍♂️

@@2216sammy It's not ridiculous. It's a pretty common sentiment. In an era of super strats, it was pretty notable that people associated the Les Paul with Slash.

What do you mean by that??

@@crackerinternational I mean like it’s like you’ve know him. He’s just a regular guy and cool dude. It’s like your talking to an old friend that you haven’t seen forever, but when you see eachother it’s like old times. Slash was like that when I met him, just a very cool down to earth guy.

🤘

what a dope I would have kept it Joe can buy another one

@@buzzedalldrink9131 😂😂😂

After Joe Sold it for Dope and Dissing Shafting Edward Van Halen at the 1978 Texxas Jam , Cotton Bowl Texas... Jealous man ,,,

He didn't give it back, he sold it back.

EVH gave his Jamaican Rasta to Frank Zappa's Son ,,,Dweezil , after a visit ...sitting in Pieces

@@CP-kb1du And Drunken vomit 🤮

Eddie gave Jerry Cantrell a couple Ernie ball music man’s and amps too

I rather have other guitarist than Eddie.

I mean I’m a bigger Aerosmith fan but no it’s not lol

yeah i've seen Doug Redler, Ace Bergman and Adam Day (this man)

@@KeeperOfPoops he is very particular about tone

probably for different kinds of tours and they split, sometimes they work together more than one at the time, he has a looot to cover for

Well Adam day stoped working for him after gnr ended, then there was someone else, and for the conspirators he was with ace who is now with frank sidoris. Adam day did some of the American conspirators tours too but I think there is someone else now

Adam Day is a big time tech and Slash can’t afford to pay him what he gets paid when it’s not GNR, so Adam came back for the GNR tour legs.

RIGHT!

I know! I was so bummed it wasn't shown

He selled it

@@alonso8314 No, he didn't. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kJxkjJChz8DbYnk.htmlsi=8SqSLqb696wVqr_v&t=1752

It's not "elusive". He talks about it openly and still has it in his collection. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/kJxkjJChz8DbYnk.htmlsi=8SqSLqb696wVqr_v&t=1752

What do you mean?

@@crackerinternational I mean the guy probably knows more about the guitars better than Slash because he’s in charge of maintaining them.

This book would be a great read. If he were to write a book, I doubt he would be working with Slash ever again.

Slash would kill him afterwards 😂

@@HF1600ie slash couldn't kill a fly!! Total wimp - good guitarist though

@@jimhart11 I guess you're right. He's the kind of guy that musta been a hippie in another life. Peace and love!! Ahaha!

He missed the best years.

I’d honestly probably say their more like friends than boss and employee, I’d think. They’ve known each other for a long-ass time.

Haha I got that feeling too!

AAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHA AWESOME

Still more comfortable than the Edge rig rundown.

that's great

@@ensignofindustry1033 Dallas was a true gent with John in the edge rug down.

yeah, yeah.... yeah um... sure.. yeah uh, no... so yeah.

Yes he is. He played my birthday party when I was a kid. Next you'll tell me that was just my dad...

@Peter Piper Slash isn’t real, he was made up, he’s based off of a dutch saint named vunterslaush. But people dress like him to entertain the kids.

@Peter Piper it's a South Park reference. Great episode.

@Peter Piper no prob! Check it out when you have time. It's a pretty good episode, but the running gag of Slash as a sort of mythical Santa Clause figure is ace.

@Peter Piper "Crack Baby Athletic Commission" lol

When did Joe sell it ? He must have been hard up for cash way back then and had "other priorities"

@@bigmaxy07 it was in the early 80s when Joe quit Aerosmith. At the height of all their drug use.

Slash said he bought from a pawn shop. Joe pawned it and .. he gave 8000 dollars for it

@@samright4661 Not true. It may have been at a pawn shop at some point but Slash bought it from Dixie Guitars or Atlanta Vintage Guitars (they changed names sometime around then) for $25000

@@fisherfilmworks Wrong I just heard Slash talk about it Yesterday. He said he was on tour in Japan and the seler contacted his Agent about a guitar when he got back to LA he had pics sent to him in the Mail. He paid 8000 Dollar that was in 88 ..

Right 🤣 cause slash is the best even ppl who don’t like rock like him cause he’s so versatile

He’s cringe af

@@GuitarSpotTV facts

@@haywoodjablowme699 🤣🤣 "Alllllrighty thennnn!" haha, so true

@@haywoodjablowme699 I kinda thought the same. Loyd and Harry. D.&D..

@@GuitarSpotTV I guess to a degree, but its at least watchable. But he does give off that boomer at show vibe. "you remember when they played here in 81, rockin set" no pops i wasnt even close to born yet...

You should try a CD ‘cos the 12” LP records only last 20 minutes or so on each side... ahem!

Axl doesn’t have child like fits on stage anymore, he just has a Mikey mouse voice 😉

Scratches, dings, wear and tear gives a guitar character in my opinion. It tells a story, it shows it's been used. I'd pick up a beat up guitar any day (Granted it plays well) over any brand new shiny sparkling guitar. :)

Yeah when you can have basically any guitar you want, you wouldn't mind it either.

Could you elaborate

@@moddingmatrix2791 To make it short. Les Paul used by Slash in AFD album was actually a replica (apparently a very nice one) made by an independent luthier. Slash back then was poor and couldn't afford an LP so the band manager bought (rented?) it for him and Slash liked it a lot. So when Gibson made an official reissue of AFD LP they basically copied a copy of their own model. I got this from youtube comment section though so there might be some minor differences. But the fact that the LP used by Slash for AFD wasn't an authentic Gibson LP, but a replica, a fake (read: well-made) les paul.

@@moddingmatrix2791 Damn the tech actually talked about it on 03:16 haha

@@moddingmatrix2791 the Chris derrick les Paul copy which is slash's no.1 guitar was copied by Gibson later in his career. so Gibson copied a Gibson copy.

@@iganpparamarta8813 do you actually know that a well-made replica by a well-known custom luthier is actually MORE expensive than a regular factory-made Gibson Les paul standard? And Derrig's replica was one those custom made instrument. Slash got it not because of not having enough money, he was just unhappy with the sound of "true" Gibsons

We're going back through our Rig Rundowns and picking out our favorite clips and reposting them.

@@premierguitar Got it. I think this idea can really improve your audience. PG always doing a great job for us, musicians. Thanks, and keep the great work. 👍🏻

So sad that he passed away before he could see his creation becoming one of the most famous guitars of all time and ironically saving Gibson itself in the late 80s

I know he built those guitars to fund restoring a Pontiac GTO. If he'd lived on, he could've charged so much for his guitars that he could've had a whole fleet of GTOs!

It's hard to tell by looking at it. A Gibson USA LP will look like the pickups are higher because the surrounds are shorter compared to the historically correct surrounds that are on a Gibson Custom Shop LP. In other words, more of the pickup is exposed above the surround on a Gibson USA and less is exposed on a Custom Shop, but the actual pickup height could be the same or nearly the same.

He was pushing on the headstock and bending the neck to get fake whammy bar dives, not regular string bends on the fingerboard. The headstock angle on Gibsons is pretty fragile, and Slash did that enough times to weaken other parts of the neck too.

The neck angle of loads of non historic Gibsons is glued way too steep, meaning the bridge has to be high.

I was thinking Gene Wilder.

Joe Walsh

about 500.00

Who told you 2 million 😂.

@@lustycourtier2425 There are reports that the guitar was selling for 2 mil at the time, but you're right it's not confirmed that's how much Hammett ended up paying, and probably worked out a deal. Either way I'm sure it was an exorbitant amount of money

They just send this poor guy that doesn t know anything about guitars and amps... He could ask lot more but he was stuck with wow! ... Man! .... Ecc ecc

I actually like him but he isn’t very good at it

@@leonardos9632 the guy you claim knows nothing about guitars and amps is an accomplished musician who actually knows gear very well. That being said is interview skills are sometimes lacking.

@@disprogreavette8545 the fact that you are a musician doesn t mean that you know your gear... See interview of bettencourt talking about his guitar and rig... And he s a monster... It is what it is, the guy here was the typical woooow maaaan that's radically maaaan, come on

@@disprogreavette8545 He's an exellent player.

Slash’s guitars have a magnetic effect on boobs.

He stands like he's holding in a shit.

Just because, me thinks.

Because that makes the break angle even worse.

@@johnwest6083 that's true. We may never know the real answer.

@@johnwest6083 I think he meant top wrapping for a lot less break angle, like jimmy page use to do.

@@benjamins9121 Exactly

No, that’s Josh Duhamel.

Some of that made sense.

I can only imagine what that would sell for.

Was just going to comment on that. He doesn't cut off the person he's interviewing, and if he comments he adds to what the person is saying.

There probably aren’t a lot of bands touring. They are uploading highlight clips to keep their engagement up.
