- We recently hooked up with Primal Scream, Little Barrie and The The guitarist Barrie Cadogan at Gibson's London HQ where he put a 1959 Gibson Les Paul through its paces. On loan for the day from a collector, this Burst was one of the very first to enter the UK and is a stunning instrument that you'll be able to find out more about in the magazine soon.

We all came for the guitar, stayed for the player. What an absolute joy to listen to you play Barrie
One of the best 50's LP demonstrations I've seen - many players will 'rawk out' and fawn all over the guitar. Barrie plays tastefully and dynamically, exploring the sounds that the guitar has to offer.
This is the way a 'Burst is meant to be played. They really aren't hard rock instruments like most modern Les Paul-style guitars. Vintage/custom shop Gibsons are much cleaner and possess much more clarity. If played right they have far more nuance than even a Strat.
@@Dagger_323 very much like a fatter/thicker sounding Tele. Relatively low output pickups and not a darker/muddy sound too often attached to later years when high gain became in vogue, even in the neck position it still retains clarity and note separation, single coilesque, but more full sounding. To me, that's the ideal LP sound. Suitably Bright, with midrange honk and added girth over a single coil. The '58 reissue I have fits that bill very well. It's like my Tele's big brother, in many ways.
yep, no 'ernie, Ernie, errrrnie!!!'
Yeah, that was some good s***.
Is this his guitar??
Barrie Cadogan is a touch of class! What a player, what an ear for tone. 🙏
Check his other video on Guitar with his 1962 ES-330 if you have not done it. What an elegant player (my personal favorite). I bought a 2018 ES-330 reissue and an epiphone valve junior to try to emulate that tone. I have never managed to get anywhere close. I’ve really learnt a lot from his playing.
Amazing Guitar player and a down to earth guy 👍.
Barrie's one of the best, most soulful, guitarists working today. Hands down.
Ive often asked myself if 59's were overhyped. This video gets rid of that doubt. It sounds absolutely heavenly.
Consider that they only made 1,500 of them; consider that most of the initiated guitar players in the 60's and 70's played them (and traded them around), and as a result of that they're an integral part of the sound and look of popular music from then (and onward), consider now that probably 3 generations of guitar players have grown up on that music. That explains the sky-high price, even when compared with other instruments of similar age.
If you ever get the chance to play one, you'll see. Nothing comes close, but there are some damn nice imitators from the last 30 or so years to now - and Gibson is not one of them, haha.
@@TheBarroomHero321 interesting. After I received your Informative message, I went to a boutique guitar shop and played both; an original and and a custom copy ( R9 ). I was impressed by both, there was little difference between the custom shop copy and the original. However, the original had sustain that lasted for hours and was acoustically louder then the copy. Both wonderful guitars.
@@TheBarroomHero321 The sound of a vintage 'Burst is difficult to achieve, but not unobtainable if you know what to get. A current Gibson Custom Shop LP from this year's line (2019) is literally the closest Gibson has come since the originals. I'm aware that's a vastly overused tagline but in this case it is true. Prior to this year's line Gibson was still wax potting the pickups and using inferior wire, incorrect taper CTS pots and cheap Mylar "bumblebee" capacitors. The 2019 stuff all has unpotted Custom Buckers, superior wire, vintage audio taper low-tolerance CTS pots and real PIO Luxe Bumblebee reissue caps. I've played a couple and was amazed at the difference, but at the same time was not surprised given the fact that the stock electronics this year are essentially the same caliber as the upgrades most people were doing to these guitars in year's past to achieve the sound of the old ones. Only difference is now Gibson is putting these in stock so the mods aren't necessary.
However, slap in some Throbak PAF clones (literally the closest you can get to a real PAF, bar none), REAL vintage NOS Centralab pots (which in my experience make up 50% of the original guitars' nuances and tonal response, and NO modern pot matches them), and real '50s-'60s Sprague bumblebee caps, and you're nailing the sound. I got a hold of a set of NOS Centralabs from the early '70s off of eBay (which are identical to the '50s Centralabs but with the exception of being vastly more affordable) and slapped them in my Historic Reissue, as well as the other parts I mentioned, and holy COW what a difference. _Nothing_ made today in terms of electronics is comparable to the old stuff.
The guitar sounds great!
I still think that they’re overhyped.
Barrie makes any guitar sound great to be fair .
Best blues player in the UK right now.
Not exactly blues. More like rockabilly than blues.
This guitarist actually shows the musical capabilities of this guitar and not just how to get different tones while you’re playing at 1,000 miles per hour. He does a great job demonstrating what makes this guitar so legendary!
This guy. . . such a tasteful player and no ego. And what an amazing variety of great tones he gets out of every instrument he plays !
The amazing thing for me is how Barrie gets right on the inside of every style he demos. As usual, no pedals, nothing but the amp, the guitar and his touch. Brilliant how his enthusiasm for the guitar warmed his playing. Loved the rock stuff at the end.
How have i only just discovered Barrie Cadogan!?!?!
You haven´t seen "better call saul"
He has played with Morrisey, Paul Weller, Johnny Marr, Hubert Sumlin and Primal Scream.
Also he's a top bloke and a big influence on my guitar playing.
Currently playing with The The.
Check out his first album This Is Little Barrie.
Was about to post the very same thing.
i came on here to say... who the fuck is barrie cadogan and why should i care? Anyway, its good to see ol' Barrie finally get his due... whatever that means. Andy Warhol would be proud.
Well, you got there a year before me! How the f isn't this guy famous?!
He plays a 500.000€ guitar into a 200€ amp with a coily cable and it sounds better than 99% of all the other sounds I‘ve heard :D
What head and cab is that ?
@@crisrose521 it‘s an Epiphone Valve Jr.
He does it with a $200 guitar also
The Epi Valve Jr. Is a totaly underratet amp... it is so great and Sounds tasty... He is up with the big ones...
@@christiandude3149 I played a stock one in a store not too long ago and it was the okayest sound I‘ve heard in a long time
Videos like these make me pick up my guitar and love it even more
Exactly the same here... Best regards :)
Barrie inspired me to grab my guitar, plug it in, and make some noise. Unfortunately that's what it was, so I put it down again and watched Barrie some more!
inspirational player and a lovely bloke. I remember him from when he worked in Vintage and Rare in Denmark street in the 2000's. Just like here he would love to chat guitars and play.
Spent many a lunch hour talking guitar and having a cupoa with Barry.. Got to play on some amazing axes also...
This is consistently the best Les Paul I’ve ever heard. It’s got that sound in spades.
I really dig Barrie’s laid back approach ... he says so much doing so little .... instead of ripping he just flows....
Nice to hear the voice of this lespaul . Usually people crank up the overdrive and it could be any double hum bucker axe
I think you have absolutely no idea what you're talking about
Lovely stuff
Richard Crompton oh I think he does...
Well....😬 I dunno bout that pal
Shame he’s playing it through a piece of shit amp
The paf humbucker has its own sounds
Everything you need to know about the Gibson Les Paul right there. Superb playing and feel.
Beautiful playing! And vintage Bursts have that Tele sound in them, which I love.
Those little Epi tube amps are a gem, I have modded two with high end parts and they sound KILLER!
I completely agree! What's the amp model? I may have to pick one up
@@rugbyvagrant7 Epiphone Valve Junior
What a fantastic video! Lovely guitar and a fantastic player who just oozes enthusiasm. Great to see 👌🏻
Have you listened to Little Barrie? Great player/singer.
There's also this one of him playing a 330
ruclips.net/video/slTVW9g9bTs/видео.html
@@SGspecial84 This is the guy in the band that Better Call Saul uses for the intro? Wow.
Hey man! That guitar just oozes all
Keep inviting Barrie Cadogan to play vintage guitars on your channel, and we'll keep on watching them.
That is 'THE' sound. Great playing too...a pleasure to watch.
This dude is cool as hell. Love to hear him talk about these classic guitars.
Those guitars from the '50's even the LP Jnr's just Sing. Great wood, pick ups and made right. Fantastic video...... NO EFFECTS !
Guitar straight into a valve amp and let your hands do the rest. As it should be !
Awesome! One of the best players around for nailing classic styles and tone!
Some of the Best examples of the tones on tap from a vintage burst ever seen on you tube! Good on ya for showing the true versatility of the Les Paul.
Barrie for sure is among the greatest ones. So cool, intelligent and enjoyable playing.
The beauty of his picking has me blown away, just the flick of his fingers and it creates a beautiful tone. Hell of a player!
Such a great demo! Barrie is an incredible player
Oh now this is a great 59, and played by someone who knows what he's doing. Wonderful stuff.
Love it - Love Barrie & so glad I stumbled upon him a few years ago.
I was fortunate enough to see Little Barrie not long before drummer, Virgil Howe passed away. They blew my mind with their performance and were delightful to speak to afterwards whilst drinking amongst the punters.
Its been a while since I heard a good blues player and Barrie has it in spades, such character and depth to the playing. No hurry just plays with good honest feel. Good on ya mate.
Some of the best playing I’ve seen in a long time. Well done!
Great classic tones 👏
For my money, the most underrated guitarist alive right here. He may be Little Barrie in name, but the sound and soul are big…
It don't get any better than a masterful player and a magnificent 59 standard,rarely will you ever witness this.
Obviously a huge "Hats off" to Barry Cadogan for his "Hear my train a comin'" and some wonderful pickin' through a number of genres. And don't you just WANT one of those geetars? And what he has to say about its history, the wear on it, that it's not been handed around the world by a bunch of collectors? That's beautiful.
Fear not, gang! I too have a Gibson Les Paul! It's a 2018 Tribute Gold Top cheapo that comes in a gig bag, no body or fingerboard binding and a lot of the hand-work to finish the fret ends just - hasn't been done. Made in USA to a severe price, £800.00 to me bran' noo but IS IT ANY GOOD? Well - I WON'T GIVE IT TO YOU!
Well - it is good! I had my favourite guitar guys do the fret ends (Richmond Guitar Repairs, UK if you must know) because I knew they'd do it better than me. The p/ups I changed myself, taking out the less-than-inspiring 490 and 498s (but some like them) and banging in some sooper dooper and very pricy Wizz PAFs, the best PAFs I know of anywhere (made by obssessive/compulsive authenticity freaks in Croatia), and changed the tone capacitors. And it's GOOD, all the way from 1 to 11, smoky, sweet, biting, the whole thing. Just like Mr Cadogan shows us, those knobs and switches are SO worth exploring and paying attention to - it's a musical thing designed before anyone wanted gain and you have to be in those areas to figure out if the guitar has a voice or not - gain is great but......that's for later. Play with the volume way down to check it out, if it's good there in the "clean/semi clean" areas it will sing with filth, no trouble at all. A little blues, a little jazz, a little soul...... listen to the air in those unpotted Alnico p/ups! Stormy Monday in a tiny, sweat-ridden dive? "Since I've been loving you" with that huge surprise hanging on moving a switch? No prob.
Not just old, rare Pauls - any guitar in any store.
So, YES, you can still get a really, really proper-good Les Paul - unchambered one piece mahogany body, one piece neck, maple cap, grown-up-handsome as Harry and with enough change to sort out the P/ups you want which, for me, is those old, old things so you can hear the strings "ping"on the wood - then the bumble bees start to sing along and Beethoven turns in his grave. You have to pay attention to set ups like pick-up height etc and it isn't quite "Yours for a bag of chips" but you only need to buy it ONCE.
Mr Cadogan speaks very inspirationally about the 60s - 70s music he discovered and the production of the time, the way Eric Clapton, Mike Bloomfield woke everyone up, revived a guitar that was languishing, tells us it was inspired by a "jazzer" of sorts long before we got "dirty", knows his history and plays with great feel - you can't buy it and if you've got it you still have to practice like f*ck to get it out there. Really good, hats off but don't let a bunch of trolls tell you different - you can get yourself a really, really good Les Paul if you want, something that sounds just like that and you can't put it down or put into words how "those sounds" make you feel when your girlfriend leaves you (that's all right, get another one) because she's sick of your non-stop noodling on the guitar and wants to marry a steady guy instead.
AND....
If you are so pushed for cash that you can't afford that sweet Epiphone amp rig (or an AC30 or Watkins Westminster - as used by Keth Richards, back in the day), you could do worse than a Yamaha THR10 practice amp - then feed the heaphones "out" to a couple of self-powered monitors for home use and brilliant for playing tracks through the aux channel so that you can be Hendrix's rythym player for the day or either of the two THR100s for ear-bleed down the pub. Then you can flog your pedal board.
Barry Cadogan, thank you. Lovely feel for that lovely guitar. Hats off.
Geoffrey Allen couldn’t have put it better myself..and you’re right..when Page ‘flicks the switch’ on the intro to ‘Since’..well..
Cool take on things!
This guy's is freaking amazing. This is the third video of him I've listened to. His guitar playing is fantastic. I could listen to him playing alone for hours.
He is truly a gifted player. He has such elegant feel and touch. AND most importantly he understand the guitar he is holding and playing.
What a perfect choice by Gibson to have Barrie play and talk about their instruments. Great guy and a top player!
I’ve never heard of Barry Cadogan before but I love his playing.
What an amazing player, beautiful phrasing
One of the sweetest guys you'll ever meet
Love my les paul. No matter what the haters say no other guitar compares.
Lee Rutland haters?what haters?the les Paul is the best electric guitar ever made
@@onlyjoetee i 100% agree but the ones that don't have one end up hating saying they are not worth the money etc etc. U know what its like lol.
@@onlyjoetee i also have a american strat with jb sh4 in bridge and some single coil custom 69 in neck and middle. It does sound very nice but when i plug my les paul pro 2 (pic in my profile on left) back it lights up a spark in your soul as the sounds it produces are sound like heaven and unfortunately puts the strat back in its place on the guitar rack lol
5:15 these playing dynamics 🤯
Then the middle position tone🤤
Gravely and buttery blues 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Doesn't get better than that. Straight to the amp. Beautiful guitar.
MY FAVORITE BURST, BY ONE OF THE BETTER PLAYERS AROUND! LITTLE BARRIE HAS GREAT TOUCH, HES A HUMAN METRONOME, GREAT TIMING! EVERY GUITAR I HEAR HIM PLAYY? HIS FINGERS MAKE THEM SOUND GREAT! THE KID HAS SOUL! FO SHOOOOO!
Complete class.....masterful player.
This is a guitar player. Barrie has great a great touch, and that burst....AMAZING
Like listening to him talk as well as play. History, tradition, and the present. "It's made music all its life." Great.
YESSS great to see him on here, know him from Primal Scream mainly! :)
This is one of the cleanest 59s I’ve ever seen! That thing is in MINT condition!
Not a Primal Scream fan, but he is a great player and seems like a good guy
He's not playing with Primal Scream anymore, you should check out his band 'Little Barrie', his solo project 'The Cobra Lamps' & the wonderful Danny Kirwan tributes he's done at & for The Blues Kitchen (yes, I'm a big fan of his, he's the best guitar player in the UK at the moment, he's just got that magic touch and that's something you can't learn or teach, it's a true connection with the instrument):

Beautiful guitar beautifully played
This guy is AMAZING
Great playing. Wow!
Beautiful guitar and beautiful playing
Most iconic electric guitar in the world. Amazing that it is revered by blues, jazz, rock, and metal genre artists. And a heavy beast !
I kind of love that he's playing it through a $5 amp.
And sounding good.
Whats amp?
@@edhinoamusoffa4893 egnater. Not relatively expensive amps at all.
@@blakespurlock5322 nope, epiphone
@@edhinoamusoffa4893 Epiphone Valve Junior. It's probably modified.
That's a beauty! Great video!
That Epiphone amp sounds pretty good too...
Love it, love it, love it!!!
All the 59's I've heard seem to have a certain bark to the sound in a very good way though I think the amp sounds great too
Paul Raymond played on my late friend Danny Kirwan’s first solo album post Fleetwood Mac “Second Chapter”.
They formed a short lived band “Hungry Fighter” in 1974, which disbanded after their first gig ended in a terrible road crash with serious injury to their road manager & the destruction of their instruments & equipment.
My condolences to Paul’s family and loved ones.
Rest in peace Paul, your music lives on.
My late friend Danny Kirwan of Fleetwood Mac released three solo albums (“Second Chapter” 1975, “Midnight In San Juan “ 1976 & “Hello there big boy!” 1979, under DJM Records, owned now by Universal Music, including a Reggae version of The Beatles’ “Let it Be.” Danny loved The Beatles.
I should like to see those three solo albums remastered and rereleased. Millions of music fans would too.

I wish I had not sold my valve jr head and cab, and I hope I can replace it before they can’t be found. Just 5 watts and a volume. Fantastic amp for so many great sounds.
What a lovely guitarist
You can put that guitar in the dictionary. It's the definition of a Les Paul. Awesome guitar.
Gawd Gawd gawd............ Amazing. More more more
Wow what an incredible guitar.
I love this GUITAR episodes. Everytime I can’t fall asleep I search for a Barrie vid! He’s so boring that you fall asleep instantly. Thank you so much!
He’s right about everything he says brilliantly said.
Great vid. Sounds good. Having Bloomfield mentioned 4:10 made things right for me. Heck, i was 10 or 11 in '68 when i first saw the Super Session album. This is where i first saw a Les Paul.
It’s the guitar but it’s really the player 👍
So much goodness: chops, tone, history and reverence.
One of the most tastiest & original players today. Much more honest than a certain current blues player endlessly widdling away in the pentatonic boxes on his original bursts. 😜
two different styles both are accomplished for what they play
Lol. Jealous.
He's remained current since he started gigs supporting BB before even in his teens right through to his 40s, so I imagine he's honest enough. Whatever the fuck "honest" means in terms of guitar playing, mind.
Robben Ford plays pentatonic boxes. What a hack he is. Maybe the pentatonic argument has run it’s course.
U there Joey B ?
I agree with him though, depending on what guitar I have in my hands I’ll be drawn to play certain styles of music, and some guitars inspire me much more than others.
I like his right hand technique. Uses the pick for lead stuff and sorta brushes down with his free fingers to occasionally play chords.
The clarity in those pickups alone is in another world. This was at a time when there were no sustain pedals. Guitars were just built so damn well they sustained themselves
Hello Barrie. A good and interesting video. That's a lovely 59 Les Paul, should be worth some decent money too. I guess that makes you a member of "The 59 Club", an honour indeed. I think Les Paul's have a lovely, rich and sumptuous sound and tone. You are a good player, great technique with a nice, clean sound, to your playing. I also liked your other video, honouring the late, great Rory Gallagher and his 61 Strat, excellent work by you. I was born in 1961 and like the guitar, I'm showing my age with wear and tear too lol.
Beautiful guitar. Excellent demo. Great chops. Thank you.
lovely tones man
What an amazing player. Interesting that Epiphone amp.
McCormack's, Glasgow. Did that one. 76 onwards. Definately after this guitar.
This guys style oozes out of his fingers. I could pick his playing out from a mile away and there’s no compliment better than that .
What a great sounding guitar!
TASTEFULL! GREATEST GUITAR EVER MADE PLAYED BY ONE OF THE BEST IVE HEARD IN A LONG TIME!
Barrie, you are a lovely person, and great player. 👍♥️
Nice Groove nice playing. well done.
i f===ing love the way this dude plays the 6 string ..
What fantastic playing. Wished I could play with such dynamic & grace. Will have to check more on Barrie. Beautiful Les Paul, would be amazing to be able to just wile away an hour or 3 on such an instrument
One hell of a demo.
Great, great musician
Beautiful sound.
some guys you find connoisseur in synth and Barri is the guy with the guitars and all the whole game about it - underrated guitar player all over Britain, - seriously )- i truely think he's the best - 2nd generation hendrixian xx
Bright like a telecaster! I love it. When did humbuckers get muddy? And why??
Barrie is a great guitarist. He seems to just be able to play anywhere on the neck by instinct, and with great feel as well.
I don't understand how can these LPs sound almost like a trumpet on the bridge pickup. This has NOTHING to do with my 2008, here, I hear the wood, then the pickups. Very odd feeling, even with a simple video, but it's amazing.
I mean, the amp, volume, eq and the speaker play a lot in the shaping of the sound too, so you might also check out that. However, in the end ,these guitars are truly magical :)
@Elton Joel Yeah, but money isn't a big contribuitor either. I mean most of the time, expensive equipment will sound better but i believe that's because dialing a good tone in them is easier, cheaper equipment can sound as good if not better when the player is a pro and really knows his/her way through any rig (Johan Segeborn for example). But yeah the guitar itself is very magical aswell, can't argue with that.
That PAFs for you....just awesome tonal pallet, and to the other guy who reckons you can get great tone from expensive gear easier, Bullcrap. I had a Jem7v and i struggled fior 3 years getting a decent tone through a JVM410h and a 1960a cab day by day the tone went from great to shit without anything ever changing....sold the rig bought a Les Paul standard historic and a silver jubilee 2555 and got a awesome tone.
it's not about havingall the expensive kit it 's also about having kit that is compatible with the tones you are after
Picking dynamics..pulling tones with both your pick and fingers, and your palm heal.
trebely paf style pickup (try a set of gibson tim shaw pafs), low value capacitors on tone controls (values often drift. Try a .015 on your tone cap), small tube amp with weak output transformers,small magnet speaker.
I’ve been told McCormick’s failed following the 2008 finance crisis. I spent quite a bit of time in there as a kid - it was an amazing place where you could buy almost anything musical. It’s so sad it’s gone. It was a true musical landmark.
Wow. Great video.
Very cool guitar! Never seen a 1959 burst with the grain going up in that direction. Very unique!
