What a great sound and beautiful looking guitar. I love the magazine I get on my iPad. I'm on a army pension and all I have left is my guitars my dog. It's so good to get my magazine each issue. To be able to get a custom Gibson Les Paul especially this one.
Matthew Setright even though we're probably not from the same country thank you for your service Matthew.
Matthew Setright what reg were you in?
Hi, sorry for the lack of amp info - you'll be glad to know we are including shots of pedals/gear used from now on. It was the usual studio AC15 at low level for the chords, then about half way up for the lead stuff, with a Boss Super Overdrive to give me a bit of extra help!
Thanks for that, was just wondering what amp was used. Nailed the sound
Mark Knopfler....the best EVER! Period.
Now THAT'S a right PROPER Gibson!
Only 50 made, all signed by Mark and ALL sold!
250 I believe. 50 signed. 100 hand aged. 150 VOS. It is the only guitar I've seen which moves me to really "want." They look awesome.
Absolutely Breathtaking Tone And Lovely Tasteful Playing.
Intro music hit me like a wave. I was feeling that groove
That intro was amazing, my friend. Hit all the right notes.
Amazing tone, and fantastic playing as usual
Really nice. Would want that fretboard darker to look right but lovely tone.
Lovely playing, can we please have an extended version of that first song? So emotive and smooth sounding!
sounds a little like "Brothers in arms" intro. ~ very nice ~ Vox AC15 and Boss super overdrive produces that tone?
Billy Garrison I tried to hint a bit at Brothers in Arms, ha ha! Yes, it was a Boss Super Overdrive into the normal channel, which was already set to break up (about 6, I think) This is played with a mix of fingers and pick too - I thought Knopfler fans would want to hear that 😊
Sweetest tone with non boutique gear
Beautiful
Sublime Richard!
Please can you let us know what the amp and pedals/effects are? For me there's no real context to the guitar sound without this information. Fender Tweed Deluxe perhaps, however I can hear reverb/trem so maybe black/silver face.
Wayne van de Klee Same here
Agreed. If he's playing through a Roland Micro Cube with a Behringer distortion pedal, then that means the guitar is worth the money.
Wayne van de Klee Don't forget the mic and interface.
Wayne van de Klee Don't forget the mic and interface.
Wayne van de Klee During a small combo amp shootout, I think they mentioned that they use an AC-15 for a lot of their demo videos, if not all.
Who is that? Richard? Very tasty playing - and that's pretty much all the tone you could what you want from a vintage-inspired Les Paul.
Nails the "brothers in arms" tone
Please name of amp, name of cab and setting. Setting of overdrive?
Pleaseee
amp settings please ...work it out man
pretty good
Do you have guitar tab?
As a suggestion, it would be far more helpful if the reviewer gave details of the exact differences between this and another high-end LP Gibson; maybe an TH R8? Why exactly should we splash out an extra few grand on this? Simply sat there playing the thing doesn't really tell us anything. To all intents, this could be any top line LP. How does it play? How does it look in the flesh? What's the workmanship like? How does it feel?? Is it worth the extra money? For instance, look at the fretboard; it has absolutely zero resemblance to Knopfler's '58. In fact it looks like something Gibson would knock out on an entry level standard.
Geousous Les Paul
I wonder Which is his favorite ? His go to guitar ?
Is it just improvised or are the notes relates to some special song pieces from Mark? I cant recognize them but they beautifully reflect his style. Some notes to replay would be awesome...
Sascha Haupt Thanks for your kind words. It was pretty much improvised, though I was deliberately trying to 'channel' a Brothers In Arms vibe, without plagiarising, ha ha!
Is there a chance to be getting some tabs 😇 id be pleased if i could play that as well. Unfortunately im too slow to get it visually from the vid nor im good enough to hear and tab the tones myself 🙁
Christ, look at how low the action is. I guess they got the neck angle right, eh?
that should be standard on any les paul
The ending is where it's at...holy smokes
Is Knops the only guitarist to have a Custom Shop model from both Fender and Gibson?
Also Jimmy Page
which humbuckers is this gibson using?
gilmourish vibes
If I had to chose between my wife and that guitar, I’d miss her. For a little while.
Please What amp do you play in this demo?
Fantastic. Is it tuned down half a step? or what tuning is it in? thanks
Just like every other customshop les paul.
I LOVE Knopfler, and I love Gibson, but these (and any Les Paul worth playing really), are priced so as to be unattainable by most folks. I've played hundreds of Les Pauls that were just "ok". The money they ask for an instrument that struggles to stay in tune is almost criminal. I realize that most guitars need a setup. Lots of places will give you a free initial tweak, but when you take one off the wall, play it, and are kind of disappointed by its overall performance, should you flip it over and see a $4000 price tag? It sucks because I want so bad for it to be awesome but most times it just isn't.
straitview74 What a stupid comment. I have owned many Les Pauls and I own this one. I’ve never had any issues with them staying in tune. Maybe you should learn how to tune your fuckin guitar. They are very attainable maybe you should get a better job. Just because you can’t afford one isn’t Gibson’s fault crybaby.
@@Panic42000 no, he makes a valid point. Maybe you're lucky with good examples. I own a custom shop 58 les paul and build wise it's the best guitar I ever played and i'll never sell it. But it just won't stay in tune for longer than two songs. Nothing helps, we tried everything. Sadly some of my ( much cheaper ) guitars stay in tune just fine.
What? No quack?
it sounds good but it would be much more helpful if you told us the setup you were playing it through
I don't it sounds very good.
Money For Nothin'
expensive as fuck
