Got my first Gibson Les Paul 3 weeks ago and wish I would have given single cut guitars a chance 20 years ago when I started. It just feels like home,it's so comfortable.
59s are my fav neck only bested by the one on the EVH Wolfgangs but thats apples/oranges. I have 3 r9s and recently played the above locally going for $8 grand. Thats 2 mint cond used R9s. I want it for the look but mostly love the aged ones because you can really play the snot out of em and not hold it like a newborn baby. That said, it plays and sounds like a R9. No better , no worse. Bottom line is I just could not hand over 80, $100 bills which is how I look at it.
difference between fender and gibson guys Fender guys: "Shut up it's not real Fender it is just copy what you are doing here...buy Fender and then talk" Gibson guys: "Oh nice copy of Les Paul mate! Rock on buddy - nice guitar!"
I've just played a 2200eu les paul and i would never change it to my ESP LTD EC-1000. Well maybe i would sell les paul and buy ESP for 2000eu. It felt like that Les Paul was made from plastic. I think gibson prices are just ridiculous.
Any thing is not anymore how once it was. Taxes, production costs, services, advertising costs are higher and higher, manufacturers are doing great efforts to keep the same prices each year, this is very hard, almost impossible, they try to find and use alternative materials, cheaper ones but this will eventually reflect in the overall quality of the products, poor quality!
You obviously do not have any experience in a multi track recording studio, or even a properly intonated guitar through a clean amp recordings can easily be altered a clean guitar sound played live is the only way to hear the true sound of the instrument, why even try to explain that to someone as stupid as YOU?
1:44 Well done camera man!
Kfir Ochaion What the fuck did I just see?
A.D Fairhurst i think he means the focus on the guitars, that it looks cool
Kfir, DO SOME PEARL JAM COVERS
He's gonna talk about his 59. He's gonna hold his 59. He's gonna break out a picture of him on stage with his 59. But hes not gonna play it?!

This exact thing just happened to me also. After 20 years of playing ALSO. I feel like I wasted so much time ignoring Gibson products up till now.
A tele is also a single cut...... jus sayin 👀
3:29 oh phew. i was worried he might actually play it.
You can find about a million videos of him playing it here on youtube. He still takes it out on the road.
Congratulations Mike, inductee 4/7/17. Hard fought, well deserved.
Absolutely rad! Love Les Paul!!
Such an amazing guy and talented musician :)
I love his style!!! He's freaking fast!!
I could listen to him all day!!!
mike mccready is my role model as a rock musicsian and jerry cantrell even chad kroeger i wanted to be a lead guitarist
I want it so bad.
The new Gibson interviews are done so much better. The FPS look like film quality. This looks like 60 fps video.

❤ Mike Meccready 🤘
Wasn't one of the reasons why Abbruzzese was kicked out was because of his gear endorsements? Just saying.
That was 25 Fucking years ago, genuis.
Yeah. And because he bought an Infiniti.
That was all Eddie, back when he still controlled the band and was holier than thou.
Long time ago.
very cool!
❤
MCCREADY🤘🏻🤩
I'm surprised that getting into KISS as a kid did not ruin him.
Ironically Ace is better than this guy. McReady is a pretty average player
James Rockford Ace is a hack and Mike is a good player. Better chops and much more interesting as a player.
Yea look at kirk hammett
Didn't ruin me.. I've got a few years on Mike though.. KISS ROCKS!!
What do you mean?
I hear he is quite good
Where was this filmed...don't tell me all those guitars in the background are Mike's?
Who? And why didn’t he play his amazing 59?
difference between fender and gibson guys
Fender guys: "Shut up it's not real Fender it is just copy what you are doing here...buy Fender and then talk"
Gibson guys: "Oh nice copy of Les Paul mate! Rock on buddy - nice guitar!"
I mean, they both do the same.
Is that a real 1959 or a reissue? That guitar is worth like 200k. 😯
Real one. And he got reissues/replicas from Gibson of his '59 for touring.
I've just played a 2200eu les paul and i would never change it to my ESP LTD EC-1000. Well maybe i would sell les paul and buy ESP for 2000eu. It felt like that Les Paul was made from plastic. I think gibson prices are just ridiculous.
what model did you play ?

@@eu3145 They're not trying that hard. My Korean PRS beats the snot out of all 3 of my Gibson production guitars.
Wonder how much he got it for
He is soooooo cool
Uh guy's, it might have been nice toi hear him play it. Just saying.
I'm surprised Eddie Vedder didn't fire him for doing this interview.
Musicians with good ears, which are few, much prefer the 335 over the Les Paul.
That’s hilarious
2:20
200th Like!!
More people have them then were manufactured.
If the 59 was well made why not make all of them the same way😜
Johnny Gonzales They do.
sorry but new les shıt !!
brag on how great it sounds, then don't even make a single sound ? can you say total hype and zero proof kids.
ziltar1 go buy a Pearl Jam record and you'll hear for yourself. the proof is in the platinum albums, moron.

He did make a sound, 1:47 right before he says "I started playing ..." He plucks a note.
Ziltar1 you are a fucking twat
