This is part 1 of 6 videos coming where we go through the 2018 USA range. By the way, all Gibson guitars are USA made, but for some reason, the core line of Les Pauls, SGs, Firebirds, Explorers & Vs is always referred to as the USA line. The Memphis range (semi-acoustics), the Montana range (acoustics) & Custom Shop range are all made in the USA, but Gibson just give those ranges different names. Confused - so are we, but its been that way for a long time!
Rob is playing through a Mesa Boogie Mark V:35 with no pedals & Lee is using a Marshall 2525 Jubilee head & is using a Xotic EP Booster and a Dunlop Mini Wah in the front, and an MXR Carbon Copy & Boss Reverb in the loop.
Next up is the Les Paul Classic vs the Studio - stay tuned!
Cheers!
Lee & Rob

I went for a Traditional...…..bloody stonkingly beautiful guitar.
@@Havanacuba1985 Yes it is a slim neck and a light body as well on mine.
I also went for the Traditional, chunky neck, heavy body and just stunning to look at. In 35 years of playing, it's the BEST instrument I've ever owned.
I've got a Traditional too in iced tea. I always pause to look at it a while before picking it up.
These guitars are so well made and beautiful. Love my 2018 Trad in honey burst finish. The trad is the real LP imo, based on the very sought after 1959 model. No fluff and gimmicky stuff. No weight relief. Just pure craftsmanship with huge sound and great playability.
Can't wait to get my Les Paul Traditional!
Thanks for another great video guys! Keep on rockin!
I watch your videos, because they're so much fun to watch. Keep up the great work. Thank you for a great channel.
This is the one video I look forward to above all others every year
Thank you guys for using other amps than Victory!!!
Victory can't hold a candle to the Mesa Boogie.
egregion - I know I immediately noticed a difference. It was like a punch in the face from what I was expecting. It sounds a lot like Jerry Cantrell
egregion I disagree.
0:45 Don't think we missed that, Chappers.
No Stairway
Really hard not to play when you hold a les
NOOOOO!!!!
You've been warned Chappers!
👍🏻 Good for Gibson offering something for everyone. Great playing & banter, guys, I love Anderton's videos!
That Boogie with the Gibson guitars sounds awesome! And of course a great guitarist, way to go Rob :)
Finally :D i've been waiting so long for this video. Thank you Thank you Thank you!!
I remember watching your videos for about 4 years now I think. And Lee became such a killer guitar player in that time!!
Great explanation of the Model features and differences guys...thanks. It really helped me and made my decision easier to buy the new 2018 standard. I’ll always remember Rob’s rye smile when I go to the blow switch :)
Clever idea with the specs. Well done!
The editing in these videos is class
FUCK YES FOR THE EDITING OF THE HP SAUCE
My hat is off to the editor you have way to much fun editing these videos
Very cool, guys!
I would love to see some of the new SG's especially the Ebony with Gold hardware!
Editing just gets better on these videos!
whoever edits all these videos is a beautiful person
I like where Gibson has gone. I hear people always complaining on the forums. I don't know what they expect Gibson to do? Build a company around your taste specifically? If you want a Traditional LP...here it is. Good as ever...if you want to see where Gibson is going with the modern electronics and tuners...here it is.
The Captain has really upped his chops!! Has come a long way from 2015 Les Paul videos. Kuddos Cap!!
That mojave burst is simply stunning.
Very pleased to see you didn't use Victory amps on this, both the MKV and the Marshall sounded superb.
Nice reveiw! You two are great.
Wow, great playing at around the 2:10 mark Captain! He doesn't open up enough with his playing. He actually has great talent for flowing with the riffs
Finally using a mesa!!!! About time !
2018 is my year! I'm going to fulfil my dream and get this beautiful Traditional!
Love these reviews. I've always wanted a traditional.
2018 Les Paul Standards going new for 1800 GBP now. Nearly a grand less than the 2019. I just got one in Mojave burst. Sooooooperb.
The Traditional Pro V is probably my favorite Les Paul of all time. Crazy amount of customization options like a modern, but in a traditional Les Paul body.
Love these reviews!
I was about to buy a standard. So glad I saw this video guys. Bc the traditional is what I want.
The video editing always gets me
Making love to my Gibson Les Paul cherry burst traditional while watching this, an absolute amazing guitar and tones!
oh yeah!!! the traditional Gibson line up!!!
Jean-luc Noaro n
Great lead guitar Lee, surely time for another of the Capt Anderton lessons so you can show us all how it's done!
omg! that traditional clean nearly brought tears to my eyes!
The Traditional reminds me of one I had in '74. It was called tobacco sunburst. The 2018 looks and sounds great.
BRING BACK GOLDTOPS!!!
Captain getting better by the week. Sounds like improvisation now instead of a string of licks. Good job.
Great video guys - appreciate you going in depth on the whole line. Same with Fender & PRS. Guitars are one of the only things I can think of where aficionados slam the great iconic brands. Car lovers typically don't slam Ferrari or Carroll Shelby and then claim the Yugo is just as good. When most serious players get a new guitar I think it's expected you're dropping a grand or 3 (or more). If not now, then down the road when you can save up that much. Would like to see some jazz hollow body and nylon guitar love, although know the demand is way smaller...love you guys.
Particularly like the product placement at 2.02 in the video. A strategic stratocaster! 😀👍🎸🤘🏻
Next year's (2018) Traditional looks great. I got a 2016 and absolutely loved it, resembles in feel to my 58 and 59 Custom Shop Historics except that it has an asymmetrical fat neck. It feels great!
Just bought a les Paul traditional from Anderson’s and I can not wait to get on it
Especially loved Robs soloing at 7:10, jam was going places :D
The traditional that Rob is holding has the nicest burst I've seen in a long time.
I quite like the look of the poker chip thing on the pickup selector.
Do the Gibson 2018 Flying V please! :)
I have the exact 2018 Traditional in this video. I bought it used as the original owner couldn't take the weight of the guitar. I love it, absolutely love it. I have had to do some equalization on my settings to get the right tone out of my setup with the burstbuckers, but once dialed in.... uhmmm delicious sounding. Best hard rock guitar I own and the sustain is RIDICULOUS. Last when sitting on the couch noodling, you can feel every note resonate through that thick solid wood!
I find it hard to believe the neck is on the "thinner side" like they claim in the video. I was seeing nearly 1inch all the way from the 1st to 12th fret for most online sources. What say you, good sir?! Hope you still have it!
@@wretchedrider2157 So no I do not feel as it is on the thinner side, though I do have guitars with rounder neck profiles. The feel and grip is amazing so if it is slightly thinner, I do not notice it. It is in my top 2 of guitars and is a main instrument for any gigs. I did replace the neck humbucker as I play heavier rock and metal and the Burstbucker was just too muddy for my liking, even with the volume turned down. So yes I still have it and will likely be buried with it LOL.
Capt getting very slick with his playing and licks. I want the turtle shirt. Looks great.
Can't get used to a les Paul without the bit around the pickup selector.
Thanks for the astute observation, Mr Ed
I like it. It harkens a bit back to the original 52 les paul.
You should do some Hagstrom coverage. They have churned out quite a number of interesting guitars during the last couple of years.
Yay for the first new les paul review that I watch owning a les paul.
Cant wait to get myself a 2018 Dora the Explorer
AllKeys JamTracks Just wait in th border
I know these guitars are kind of dated, but I have yet to find a good review on them. A really cool guitar series are the fender Jim Root sigs. It'd be cool to see a demo on it. Keppe up the great work guys! Love from Philly
Dylan \m/ philly the major city with zero guitar stores. Within center city.
The LP into the boogie sounds incredible.
I'm amazed Rob didn't bring up Chapman Guitars.
HPs are brilliant, I wouldn't go backwards by eliminating them. Glad I got a classic HP when I did. I agree with @Rob, more is more.
Saw a supro at the back! Bring it out; my favorite amp
I have both a 2018 Standard and a 2016 Traditional with some mods done by the previous owner, a friend of mine, whose a tech. Theyre different feeling necks (50's on the Traditional, Slim Taper on the Standard) but both awesome and have their own thing going on. I cant see me ever getting rid of either of them.
I'm a Boogie guy so this is totally biased, but you should use Boogie a little more often Rob. Sounded great!
UniqueSquared I guess we can say that you are a...boogie man
That's a killer rig!
+Kelly Fawcett I hope to get a Mark V 25 next year, to pair with a 4x8 cab.
What is Gibson new range?
Depends how far you throw them
Lol
Szymon Szymanski good one. Lol
Hi Lee - sorry to hear about the shoulder. I have been suffering the same over the past few months. I may well have caused it with bad guitar playing posture whilst sitting. I ended up visibly bent out of shape with my right shoulder noticeably lower than my left. This led to very bad neuralgia all down my right arm, with intense pain in the arm and numbness in my hand. Playing guitar has become impossible, and driving is very difficult. Anything that involves lifting my forearm, to strum or pick a guitar, or to hold a steering wheel, will bring it on. I had to have an injection in my shoulder to relieve the pain there, just to allow my to sleep, but it did nothing for the neuralgia in the arm. I have had x-rays and extensive ostoepathic treatments, and I still have a long way to go. Don't try to ignore it, and get it properly treated, or it can seriously bugger you up!
Nigel Williams lee better check that I have 2 frozen shoulders and it affected my guitar playing wrist n hand. He lifts heavy things a lot. I've seen in past videos.
Marc Stanford frozen?
I know too well what you're in, the same goes for me. Two injections as well but I still can play, it requires more effort for sure (the worst if you ask me is to put a coat on or off, the most painful move).
I like the ABR-1 bridge on the Trad. My 2009 Trad + has a Nashville bridge, as do my 2014 Trad Pro II and 2012 Jr. Special Humbucker. My 1991 SG Special has an ABR-1 bridge (w/ the retaining wire) and it just gives it that traditional look. I don't know if it makes any significant tonal or sustain difference.
It's Gibson month! Yay! Tis the most wonderful time of the year.
I have played lots of Les Pauls. Mostly an early 80s Standard. They are all good. They all sound a little different but you can get the sound you want. All that being said, over the last couple years I have sort of become a Tele guy. The longer scale is easier for me plus just something about it seems more lively. But all good
I love the sound and looks of a Les Paul Standard. What’s not to like?
Thumbs up for the edits and the beach ball
I really like my lp standard hp... I own a 2003 Strat Deluxe a 19 78 Telecaster Deluxe and a 2000 Les Paul special in TV yellow. I played a lot of guitars and I have to say I really love the new feel of the Gibson Les Paul Standard they sound great and I love playing mine. I had some setup issues when I first got it but I took it to the dealer I bought it from and they set it up for free which is pretty standard. Now she plays like butter... people can hate on Gibson's because they buy a cheap American-made model then compare it to I'm more higher end of another brand and really there's no comparison.
Something I noticed on my 2016 standard t is that the coil tap on the bridge pickup persists while using the blow switch. Personally I'd want to have the coil tap turned off when playing with the blow switch activated.
When are you going to do the 2018 Gibson Les Paul Standard HP? I'm not sure I like the rear mounted pickups on the HP. I really don't like the 4 screws Gibson put in the back of the body for the pickup adjustments. Plus, How hard would it be to change the pickups in the 2018 HP since there are no pickup rings or adjustments on the front of the guitar.
Rebecca Dirks! She was great - hilarious interview with Satchel
...ohh yeahhh septgibsss! will love watching more & more 🤘
Got the Standard and really enjoy the coil tap. Gibson did it very nice. More nuanced than than others. Recording quality tone, not thin.
What are the settings on the jubilee? Sounds awesome. I've been experimenting with it and it's difficult to get the perfect sound! :D
can we all just start celebrating new year when the new Les Pauls get out? makes more sense to me
the comments are funny....Guys who are making 9.25/hr, saying they hate Gibson.......so funny., Gibson makes the best looking guitars ever, save up fellas and stop being haters.
Hey i make 20hr. And sell pedals n shit i build on the side. And can only buy one nice guitar a year. Like high end. Usually a new guitar and amp. Altho im building handwired amps now for wayy less
@ROBBY Amen.
They went bankrupt for a reason bud
1:50 is why I love this channel
I think I am alone in this: First time in a loooooong time that I actually not only like, but love the sound of the guitars' sound in this channel, from the get go I was kicked in my face with a great sounding tone. Second: Both guitars look just great and tasty. Now I want one. And I would like to know what amp are using both guys (and cabinet and miking). I loved all the video. Extra: Even though the left one attracts my attention more at first glance, at a second and third look the one to the right at the end of the day feels more appealing. Looks fantastic. I want to eat it :P
Edit: Ok, now I clicked on the show more button, now I know what amps and stuff they used. Stellar tone both.
Coil split guys !
Coli tap is on single coils, when you engage additional coils to fatten the sound !
You can get coil split on hummbuckers or, if you want to be humm free, serial/parallel,
There is no coil tap on hummbuckers.
There is nothing better than that great Gibson sound. Maybe it would be better for us to make a decision on which guitars we want to buy if you didnt use pedals on any of them you review and demonstrate.
Hey rob, do you think that schecters sunvalley super shredder has good cleans? I've been thinking about buying that guitar, but I'm worried that it's a bit of a one trick pony
I didn't know I cared so much, but I'm so happy to see the poker chip on the Traditional. :) Love mine.
Some cool tones out of those guitars...
2017 Trad HP is an awesome guitar. No holes in it, so great tone and great variety of tones with access heel and superb neck. I think its sound is richer than the Std HP and playability is better than the trads. Too bad they decided not to continue the Trad HP line.
I do like Gibsons, own a Les Paul myself - but here (I'm in Germany), there are luthiers who will build you a carved top single-cut to exactly your specs for 1500 - 2000 €. Of course, if you're into exotic extras, you might end up paying multiples of that. It's custom shop and it has the charm that you know who you're giving the money to.
Will you guys be doing a video with the Standard HP model?
Hi guys, i got a question for you:
I see quite a lot of video's online of people buying their gibson (not chiibson or something) les paul on the internet that are complaining about how it is set up. Very high action, intonation that is off. What is your experience with that?
I would like to hear from you! :)
I'm stuck between getting the standard or the traditional. Or a prs 24 as my first guitar any ideas and opinions. What is a good amp and cords . Any pedals anything would really help
Can you tell me please, what mics were used on the cabs?
On the website the pic of the traditional has a scratch plate, the one Rob plays does not, is it an easy unclip one like we saw on the HP models last year or has Rob been unable to present without taking a screwdriver to it? XD
I never try or play lespaul before ..in any brand..i never try..but seriously i wanna buy one..i own fender ,jackson ,esp ,schecter...but no gibson at all..in ur opinion,what model of gibson should i buy?i love mahogany,and i want a really heavy guitar..i confius about tone..btween this 2 model...which one is better for me?standard or trad?i love warm sound,more sustain,moden c neck,and heavy guitar..
The spec for the Traditional says it has "locking kidney tuners" - is that right? or are they non-locking?
Is it just me or is the next year's guitars coming out earlier and earlier every year I think I got my 2017 SG in October 2016 lol I do have to say this year's HP SGS look freakin awesome with flamed maple
Just watching 'cause I love you guys :D
Gibson can stop making guitars any day and we'd still be happy.
Legend has it, Robs been using that same bend since his first ever guitar lesson and was born with that note imprinted on his left buttcheek
Ain't gonna lie - that new Mojave Burst color looks so good.
I think an easy way to explain the whole "Standard" thing is to compare it to the Fender American Standard Stratocaster, which while it's the icon, it's also updated to modern standards. Fender lets some of the custom shop models or even the Mexican Standard take the place of the "classic" Strat.
Nice range this year 🎸🎸🎶🎵🔊
sounds cool. like the guitars. gonna stick with my modded Epi Ultra iii tho.
Whats that riff at 11:50? chappers played it on the mesa mk5 demo too
