      For some reason, I still really want to see you cover audio interfaces, with some actual amps. Yeah, still beating that dead horse. Just appreciate your take on a lot of stuff.

      Of course, as I say this, it’s 9am in the morning, while house is still sleeping. Can’t practice drums or guitar, but with headphones and turning off the monitor, I was able to get an hour of piano practice in. So, it’s understandable why I’m looking at line 6 helix on Sweetwater at the moment. 🤷‍♂️ I still love amps and acoustic drums though. Don’t see that changing.

    I find the V more appealing but I don’t think it does anything better than the Les Paul in this setting. Glad to see someone with humility reviewing nicer guitars. Speaking as a man who owns gear far beyond my what talent level deserves, I appreciate your perspective.

    Flying V if you want more "attack" and a bit brighter Guitar sound and a cool looking guitar, LP if you want a "warmer" sound ,natural playing position and a classical looking E Guitar. The V looks and sounds like the 80s Arena/ big Stadium Rockstar Guitar like Michael Schenker/ufo/msg, Scorpions, mid - late 80s Kiss, Judas Priest, while LP is more of the Traditional Rockstar Guitar like Led Zeppelin, Rush, ACDC, ZZ Top... You can play literally any stile on both guitars but from the looks and feel departement they are very different. I have both guitars and i just see it that way from my own experience, i saw a lot of country players and Blues players use the V but also metal guitarists, same for LP aswell.

    Having owned both, the Les Paul has higher highs and lower lows, it’s also an incredibly expressive instrument. The Flying V is an absolute blast to play live and does the job. That being said I own a Les Paul, but not a Flying V anymore.

    The Vee has a bit more chime, but the Les Paul has more depth and complexity. I find Vee’s to be closer tonally to an SG than a Les Paul. Going one step further, I find Les Pauls and Explorers to have more in common than either of the other two. Some people think ES-335’s are close tonally to a Les Paul, but I’ve never really found that to be true...an ES-335 is really it’s own thing, an underlying airiness to the notes by way of the semi hollow construction.

  • @ThrashFlesh
    @ThrashFlesh 3 года назад +2

    I couldn't tell a difference with an amp breaking up. But on cleans Les Paul had more lows. With that said, my favorite is Flying V because of looks :P
    P.S. Your videos are so appealing to watch - lightning, color, framing, nice presenter, no rush, nothing excessive or distracting. It's like one cozy corner in the whole city. Thank you!

  • @damned1444
    @damned1444 3 года назад +2

    The sound of the Les Paul is pretty unique whereas the Flying V is more common and closer to the explorer with less resonance. I would say Flying V for high distortion and Les Paul for all other things. Nice shootout.

  • @vickysquires972

  • @Matt-1d
    @Matt-1d 3 года назад +1

    The LP had a fuller bass end, and therefore sounded a bit richer. I also dislike the look of flying Vs. The least amount of guitar is exactly where the pick hand is working, which seems incongruous to me. Obviously the guitar rocks, but my brain gets disoriented all the same.

    The guitars sound pretty much the same but you seem to play with more expression when handling the Flying V. Maybe thats because you find it suits you better?Too bad you always got to stand when playing it because of the that body shape!
