This magnificent fifty year old Les Paul Standard 'Burst' weighs just 9.50 lbs. and has nice, fat nut width of 1 11/16 inches and a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches. Solid mahogany body with a beautiful medium-flame, wiggly, tight pinstripe, Cherryburst solid carved maple top which has uniformly faded to a wonderful shade of "Ice Tea" One-piece mahogany neck with that oh so perfect '59 profile. Brazilian rosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets. Inlaid pearl trapezoid (crown) position markers. Two PAF humbucker pickups (double-black) with outputs of 7.86k and 7.78k.
I remember watching these videos back when I was in high school when they were coming out. Crazy how time flies - and how video quality has drastically increased too
Phil is a veritable genius on guitar.
Love this dudes vibe
I still come back to this video at least twice a year. Vintage Phil X on a vintage 59, it doesnt get much better than this.
This guitar never ceases to amaze me... It sounds so beautiful.
When ever I get bored at work i watch Phil's guitar reviews... and then I LMAO..!! Thank you Phil X..!!!
AWESOME DUUUUUDE
This guy actually has a cool sounding voice. Very nice 👍🏼
He should be in a band like Bon Jovi or sumpthin’ , right?
@@tonybulmer6365does he sing in Bon Jovi?? I never watch their performances so I wouldn’t know
That's one of the best sounding vintage guitars I've ever heard, it almost sounds as good as my 2013 Les Paul LPJ
***** Of course you can because that's what you have been programmed to believe
if you really think that a 2013 crappy Les Paul Junior sounds better than an original 59 Les Paul, then there is no way to convince you that you're wrong. You are simply naive.
GLMusic I feel sorry sheep like you, actually I don't , Suckers like you deserve to get taken advantage of. Your money could be better spent by other people. And it's not a Les Paul Junior numbnuts it's an LPJ, but I Didn't expect a mindless sheep like you to know the difference. You only know what you have been told.
***** lol Why am I not surprised, a noob like wouldn't have a clue?
Snake Plissken well yes, you are right about the name. I dont know what LPJ means, but it doesnt mean Les Paul Junior. But I've listened to demos etc, and no, this LPJ can't be compared to a 59 Les Paul. In fact no Gibson guitar can be compared to that simply because that's when Gibson hit their peak. And they say so themselves. It's not a conspiracy, it's just the perfect Gibson Guitar, just accept it.
Oh and by the way, you are the fool cause you spent more than 750$ on your IKEA coloured LPJ(with mediocre pickups) , while I spent less than 600$ on my 2008 used Les Paul Studio. Now this is a deal my friend.
Great player, gorgeous guitar, love this video.
yep, well said
I wonder how it feels to be holding $750,000.00.....
It probably feels a lot like holding onto wood
my cock is worth a million dollars and i hold that every day
honestly surprised this demo was done standing up. when I played a 59 they made me sit down and they walked up to me and handed me the guitar.
@@snapascrew so did you buy it?
Just to clear things up there was 1600 59s made but only 600 are accounted for
That Ziff guy probably has 200 of them. I heard he has Beano too. God these are the Grail.
I have some great guitars but this thing screams
Incredible guitar! I believe the sustain from :50 to 1:00 has you checking the floor for a sustainer pedal! One of the best sounding guitars on RUclips played by the best reviewer.
For $900,000, it better not come with a gig bag
I imagine it would come in the original hard case
Ryan Thompson Guitarist it was a little sarcasm
it wasnt 900. It was 385
59 les paul is king of all axes!
+geovanie flores actually the 1957 les paul is the best
+Peter Adolph Michaelsen Zegarra we all have opinions. the 59s are rare and they're used by ma man jimmy page
I played my friends '59 the other day. The tone was so rich and clear! It's one of those things that make you ask yourself "Is it even possible to get tone this good? I thought only Heaven could have such vibrant sounds!"
This guy's the best. I could listen to that clean tone all day.
I just love this guy!
I love how he treats this like any other guitar even though it is worth 300,000K
The Les Paul 1959 is the best Les Paul and possibly the best guitar ever made!!!!
its so fun to see that you having so much fun in every vid
this guitar is probally worth over $900,000.00 by now in 2016. yes sir, i think u should go ahead and install emg bro. each to his own.
nah just about $8,599.00
Xavier Balzola it would be a travesty to mod a museum piece like this. These idiots don't under stand what "1959 sunburst les Paul" means.
@@fargeeks lol wut?
@@skullkrusher4418 even elvis presley reissiue of his guitar was worth over $80k
@@fargeeks And? What's your point?
every person reviewing a guitar should be like this guy.
"and i didnt drop it this time! ....or last time"
There is only one Phil X
After listening to this I sat & just stared at the screen for 5 minutes with my eyes wide open, jaw to the floor & goosebumps all over me in amazement.
Then 5x more repeats in listening..
AMAZING..!!!
Fretted America video’s are what introduced to,you Phil ,I’m still on your train..
Man does that guitar sound good. Whole lotta Rosie!
Whole Lotta love
Nice
Dude philx you are such an amazing musician!!! Damn what does it feel like to be that AWESOME?
I think I'm in love...with the guitar, of course!
$750.000??? Uff... not in this life. :(
I've seen some way cheaper than that but you'll still have to sell your house and car to get it ;)
Sunjay Patel In 1979 I had the chance to buy one for $6000. Instead I bought a 64 Strat for $650.
Just some history and perspective.
They were never that much. And now there not anywhere near 250 grand either. Baby Boomers are dying and nobody else cares that much to pay huge coin for these guitars. In twenty years 59 bursts will be right where they should be around 30 to 70 grand.
doublestrokeroll I have a 1993 Epiphone Les Paul, and it sounds just like a 1959 Les Paul. I think the reasons for this is that it's fairly light weight for a Les Paul and the pick ups are unpotted, just like the old 59ers were unpotted. The light weight gives it more of a hollow body tone, while the unpotted pickups pick up more of the wood's resonant tones. Just a hunch, but I'd put money on it that I'm right.
I own three vintage Les Pauls and sadly none really fool me into thinking I've got a 59 tone, but that Epiphone never fails to make me think it sounds like a 59. I love Jimmy Page, and even used to be in a Led Zeppelin tribute band. So I'm very familiar with Page's tone.
It's interesting cause somewhere on line the have a list of the weights of many of the 59's on record and they are almost all under 9lbs. I was a bit surprised to see this one as being nine and a half. I do think that weight range has a big part to play in the tone.
I've got an Oville by Gibson (Japanese made gibson) that is 8 pounds even....solid...no weight relief or chambers....and it sounds amazing too. So yeah....I agree with you....people think LP's need to be heavy...I think it's the other way around...they need to be light....not too light.....but that 8 to 10 pound range is where it's at.
if I had a dollar for every pixel on this video, id have $1............
Wow a 59 Les Paul! I would be afraid to touch that beautiful guitar!
This guy is one the great demonstration of guitar vintage.Bravo
That scream in the beginning... I didn't need my ears anyway.........
That 59 sounds decent but I would pop some EMGs in there
jclev99 what in god's name is wrong with you
I'd put in some generic pickups like dragonfire or wilkinsons . I bet they'll make the guitar sound better . Yup
+jclev99 hehe better get some of those stock Agile pickups,,they gots the magic mojo!
+jclev99 are you out of your fuckin mind lol
+jclev99 Blocked.
@laza023zr Sorry this was a long time ago!!! the show has obviously evolved... if we ever get it back we will do an HOUR!!!
nailed the sweet child tone..got to love the gear
I love adderall too 👍
1- the beatles
2- led zeppelin
3- niki minaj
haha
MR. PHIL X SEEMS SO COOL SO DOWN TO EARTH AND CAN PLAY ,RESPECT !!!
Because many many many iconic guitarists played one on many records thorughout the 60s as they were discontinued for quite a while. :3
the prob with this guitar is, its not a tele
really, people need to come down off of their clouds. I like old guitars, but they are ''old'' guitars with old weak magnets and worn frets. Lets be real about this. Its 10% guitar and 90% amp. And that ain't no shit.
finally someone intelligent and PS Les Paul himself said it, "electric guitar sound is 90 percent the amp" I would also add that the player and his vibrato are quite important too, PS how come nobody has ever done a blindfold test,say a 59 burst and a reissue burst and let's see the experts tell the difference
Plug that sumbitch into a 10 dollar amp lol
I wish more people were like this guy :')
that sweet child o mine tone is spotless
i will never ever miss a week Love ya bro....
That sustain is amazing!
love your video's buddy. You're an amazing player.
U are so lucky to play one! I hope one day I can! 👊💂🎸
I'd be happy enough to breathe the same air of the room one is in.
That has to be one of the sweetest sounding and nicest looking guitars ever. It makes me want to get friendly with myself.
in the light is a great songg. the vocals and the keyboardss. the harmonies.
ahhhhhhhhh zeppelin
I think you guys are selling this for less than it's worth. So great deal to anyone who buys it. Piece of history and literally one of a kind.
Watching you makes me wNna pick up the guitar again. KEEP ON ROCKIN
Love your demos. You sing well and YOU'RE AN AWESOME PLAYER!
@LosMouertos thanks for your message, but the guitars are actually quite different when you check the photos side by side. There are marks on the front and back of the Howard Leese LP that distinguish it from this guitar.
Glad you did this vid. Now I am happy with my guitars.
You have to have the best job in the world man, oh and nice playing too.
I miss content like this
Really good guitar player., fantastic Burst , I have one as well 1959
My guitar teacher actually has a 1959 les paul, MADE in 1959. Its amazing, its become a light red over the years, but sounds amazing. He picked it up 10 years ago at a garage sale for only $800!
Dude you got so much talent!!!! Enjoyed your video. Great!!!!
@frettedamericana back when gibsons were actually made great!
The 1959 les paul is the reason i play guitar. It is the ultimate guitar in every way shape or form. everything about it is just PERFECT. i can only dream of someday playing one. (which probably would be problematic cuz im a left player lol) still, Ill always crave it.
you are so happy to play that guitar :D
I remember watching this video 14 years ago, felt jitters hearing this.
The power of rock and roll is strong with this one.
Phil is the nuts. Awsome player.
@guitarcrazzzydude92 Brazilian rosewood fretboard with 22 medium jumbo frets. Inlaid pearl trapezoid (crown) position markers. Two PAF humbucker pickups (double-black) with outputs of 7.86k and 7.78k.
@frettedamericana I wish you'd made more videos of this relic, this must be the 30th time I'm waitching this one :D
So much for playing clean!
R.I.P. and Happy Birthday Les Paul
That is just special, like, incredibly special.
Wow, nice licks man...and guitar.
Damn, guys, the Holy Grail of guitars, and it gets only 3:38 mins... I mean COME ON!! It needs more!
@velebr3 yes well a 1959 les paul is the holy grail in guitar's and not alot of ppl play them when they have this in their posesion
The more a guitar is played, the more the guitar resonates. Another fact is that creating such a high-end guitar to day costs so much you wouldn't believe it!
Man that guitar sounds like Heaven .....
probably just the best lespaul. 1958-59 :)
I still love him
i love watching these videos hes very entertaining a good player and you can learn alot of good guitar riffs from him!
Look at this one, what a beauty
Also, Phil definitely loved every second of this.
love when u sing!
HOLY crap Whole Lotta Love sounded so badass. 59 Les Paul played by Phil X. Am I in Heaven?
The holy grail of the guitar collector.
HOW IS THIS MAN NOT FAMOUS?!
I watched your Strat stuff, and you LP stuff. Rock on man, Awesome jammin'. I have both, but I'm older than my guitars :)) by a longggggggg way
This guy is awesome!
Beautiful guitar. People should just make stuff that looks exactly like this but has modern features. The guy really knows how to sing well as well. Nice.
I watch these because of both the guitars and the guitar player.
Beautiful guitar. I have a 2007 gibson les paul standard in iced tea and it sounds great but you can really tell that this one sounds much more vintage and velvety.
Freakin Phil X always makes guitar videos more entertaining.
This guitar is amazing whoa..
those pickups are SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET!
god.......what a finish on that guitar
pockleberry says, i just translated it=
"You, Eyo Did you? ! In my country, Les made in 59 "show only person willing to buy" stance, so just shop, where I get to see you play this way crunchy, very grateful. Do not know English, was written in Japanese tea myself."
best guitar review i've seen, that guy was just awesome
perfect... just like seing a kid on christmas morning
I'm coming to the US next year to visit fretted americana ....with a lot of dollars!! see
you then!
god i love this guy. he knows good music lol . no more mister nice guy!
Damn that guitar has so much beautiful sustain. You could tell it just wants sing for u.
