- Mark Agnesi takes a tour of the Les Paul Standard 50's Model from Gibsons new "Original Collection."
The new Les Paul Standard returns to the classic design that made it relevant, played and loved -- shaping sound across generations and genres of music. It pays tribute to Gibson's Golden Era of innovation and brings authenticity back to life.
The Les Paul Standard 50's has a solid mahogany body with a maple top, a rounded 50's-style mahogany neck with a rosewood fingerboard and trapezoid inlays. It's equipped with an ABR-1, the classic-style Tune-O-Matic bridge, aluminum stop bar tailpiece, vintage deluxe tuners with keystone buttons, and amber top hat knobs. The calibrated Burstbucker 1 (neck) and Burstbucker 2 (bridge) pickups are loaded with AlNiCo II magnets, audio taper potentiometers and orange drop capacitors.

I miss „all EQs at noon, just a little bit of reverb“
Mark should have trademarked that phrase.
Does this mean no more spirit animals?
Yeah, i was waiting for it..
I am not missing the giggles from behind the camera at all.
@@trimmoos this hurts my heart to read
Bought this after 18 months of thinking about it. This is without a doubt the best guitar I have ever played. I've heard people criticise this guitar re price etc, but I have to say it's worth every penny. The build quality and sound is the best. If you're thinking of getting one get one.
Ok Mark, thank you.
Well said.
I have several Les Paul Standards including this one in the Heritage Cherry.....This 50s is the best one I've ever played out of my own collection, as well as one's that I have played over the past 41 years of friends and aquantinces.
What a great feel and an absolute tone monster.
@The Fires of Mount Doom
Yes its quiet, no issues,..The pickups are PAF type so they are on the lower output side and contribute to making the guitar super quiet.
@The Fires of Mount Doom No. Ive got a Fender Champions 100 amp that I play through and I've not had any issues at all. I have a Gretsch G24020T and I get feedback with that. The LP's my favourite guitar still and probably the only "thing" that I have that is important to me.
Mark is back! The only missing is Jen laughing in the background. 😁👍
#nomoregiggles
I know, it's just not the same!! :)
@@TheChadPad watch, Gibson will hire Jen next. What will Norm doooo?!
@@JourneymanActor But before that, Fender is going to hire Michael Lemmo ;)
@@maximilien_4382 lol. I know 😁
Good to see you Mark!
Said no one...
I bought a Cherry sunburst 50s standard. Love it best guitar I’ve ever owned.
I just picked up a '20 Standard 50's Model, and all I can say is thank you! Fit and finish quality is now finally deserving of the price point again. Thank you for returning to your roots and the things that made the Gibson the tool of choice for many of my guitar heroes. Please dont get sucked into the void again.
It's so nice to hear Gibson is makeing awesome guitars again.
No weight relief that's AWESOME!
Really glad he kept the leather jacket
Just like the boss.
Yes! But it's not the same one.
Can't wait for the Mark Agnesi reliced models.
@@claudedaigneault1693 his one is from all saints its the conroy
@@tinyb69 roflmao Can I help ?
Holly 💩! Gibson is making a Les Paul?! That’s a great idea!
They haven't come up with anything new in 50 years. Don't expect any soon.
@@DBCisco Gibson doesn't work like that. If you want a guitar brand that constantly upgrade there guitars then get a PRS
If you want the same lifeless piece of shit, buy a Gibson.
Gibson! That's the spirit! Glad seeing Mark here!
Gibson's bankruptcy might be a blessing in disguise. Henry and his stupid ideas for the line forever banished. This is exactly what they should have been offering all along, core guitars from different eras that everyone wants. What a concept. Bye Bye Henry.
What is now the 50's standard use to be the Traditional and what's now the 60's standard use to be the Classic with some minor changes. Do some research and you'll see i'm right.
@@blackcanyonrevival You are correct....that's how bad a CEO Henry was...the marketing and names of their best selling guitars wasn't clear to the general public....plus they never even offered some of these models from year to year.
@@mikeadams4605 Yup. It made absolutely NO SENSE that the models which were called "Standard" back in the day, now were called something else. I´m glad they came to their senses. A standard is now a proper fucking standard again!
Making Gibson Great Again #MGGA
Exactly! Now newcomers can find their favorite style without having to dig up a fucking $6000 vintage guitar. That's where I'm at with the firebirds right now. Here's one thing I want, and I hope you're listening gibson, is that each of these core guitars has the original style of pickups, or at least something close. The hot wound ceramic firebird pickups just don't do it for me man. They're cool, but they're not what I'm lookin for. If people can take a part old firebird pups and replicate them, so can you guys. Please do it!
Was the Les Paul Traditional the same thing last year? and the year before? and the year before ?
I'm a beginner guitarist but I already know I'll be saving up for one of these. Nice job Gibson! I cant wait to play the same guitar as my musical heroes
Lucky that you came along now. The new JC era, stands to lift Gibson quality from the ashes.
2:07 I thought he would say "When you go to 10, It sounds like 11"
Welcome back to the public stage, Mark. Good to have you back in my feed 👌👍
I got mine in June 2020 in Paris just after the first pandemic lockdown. I am coming from classic violin and this one is my first guitar. It is a wonderful instrument and I love it. Thank-you so much Gibson !
That riff doesn't sound very original, are you playing authentic bro?
QueeferSutherland yeah, it sounds like the riff during the chorus of helter skelter
What a childish comment. 🤦♂️ Mark is the best thing to happen to Gibson in a good long while. Period.
Roger Craine To whom? It’s not like Mark reads this? I say it because it’s fact. He’s a knowledgeable and seasoned guitarist who believes in helping Gibson return to form. And I believe he’ll accomplish just that.
Bravo Mark! Good, simple, solid ideas. Bring back Gibson to the top!!!
Us guitar review purists are SO happy to see this. Seeing mark again properly review a guitar was nostalgic.
Mark you are a breath of fresh air!
Gibson is lucky to have you. Good luck in all you do!!!
Thank you for simplifying and bringing it back to what Gibson should be.
I love that the standard is going back to the basics. All the extra features in the models of recent years (push pull pots, pcb boards, robot tuners, etc.) no one was asking for and were a useless distraction. If the QC is on point with these new 2019 models I think Gibson is moving in the right direction.
Mark!!!! RUclips has missed you!!!!
7 SOUNDS LIKE 7...DIG IT! The new Era of Gibson is here...THANK YOU GIBSON!
Gibson how Gibson should be
Do that thing where you threaten everyone! Do it! Do it!!! 🤗🤗🤗
@Guitar Slinger chill bruh
But were all the EQ's at noon?
If Mark has anything to say about it. And just a little reverb. ;)
Finally Gibson made a real Les Paul again. This needed to happen. Mark. You have truly made Gibson Great Again. My hat is off to you sir. Thank you!!
Mark's just the PR guy. Levi's guy who moved Levi's production out of the US is running Gibson now
It’s great to see Mark Agnesi again. He is such a wealth of knowledge, you are appreciated.
Got mine direct from Gibson about two months ago. She is an absolutely breathtaking beauty of a Les Paul!!!! Complete HOME RUN. Not only did that ball clear the fence, it took out a Caddy’s windshield in the next state!!!
Gotta love all that Authentic Playing
0:53 look at the E high string 🤦♂️
LOL. Good eye.
OK, I did. What am I failing to notice?
@@brinsonharris9816 the string isn't seated in the saddle.
John Rose Ah, OK. Watching on my iPhone-had to squint. Thanks!
Too much! The PR is annoying - JC and Mark decked out in leather jackets just ready to “rock”. Time will tell but a change of clothes don’t mean sh*t unless the quality control is improved. Scepticism is healthy.
Man, I’m so glad mark is still mark.
Great to see you again Mark. Miss ya.
All EQ's at noon with just a bit of reverb
Gibson and Mark Agnesi go together like
Gin and Tonic
Jack and Coke
Page and Plant
Jagger and Richards
Lennon and McCartney....
great to see these demos, Gibson getting back on track to their classic formulas 🔥🔥🔥#MGGA #KGG keep gibson great
Cant forget Mark and Jen!
srvanddoubletrouble1 right! 😂
Mikey MOJO!
jamziz22 yooo 🤟🏼
Haha you are anywhere Mark is :D
Yes indeed it is great to see you Mark!
Hey Mark, glad you landed the Gibson gig. You give the promos that PUNCH that was lacking. Congrats and much success. I just might have to get me one of those 50s badboys!
Finally a new les paul without compromises, done the right way!!! Thanks for listening to the players, Gibson! And Mark, thanks for showing me this les paul has everything I'm looking for, nice job.
The question is, are you actually going to buy one or are you just going to tell a guitar company how things are "done the right way"? Because otherwise electric guitar sales are still slipping year over year, less and less kids are playing guitar, and we're just telling a guitar company how to operate.
I just want everyone to know that I'm really freaking excited🤘
when did everyone start saying, "I super excited", "I'm very excited", etc., (especially on YT)? That phrase must've been plugged into YT's Al Gore rhythm and more readily promotes those videos. It's gotten to Ridiculous levels now. Also, don't forget to subscribe, check the bell and leave a comment below. Tell me your favorite color (or similar q's). Argh!!
Mark you landed a dream job. That Tobacco burst is a fantastic looking Les Paul. So true to heritage.
Just got mine today! Thank you Gibson! I was finally able to get a 1950's Les Paul Standard! Love the Burstbucker pickups, traditional feel and sound, the tuners, etc. Got mine in Heritage Cherry Sunburst! Love it all! It is now my favorite guitar I own!
So the volume pots only have 1, 4, 7, and 10?
Glad to see you Mark.🤘
Hiring Mark was a solid move by Gibson. He knows his stuff, and has a following from his work on Norm's channel. Looking forward to the future.
Thank you! Gibson is a legacy company. Happy to them preserve their legacy first, and foremost.
Just bought this exact guitar yesterday, my first ever Les Paul. I'm glad I waited. Angels are singing.
I have a feeling in 20 years people will be talking about the 2019s as “”the ones to have”.
Unless they cap production I doubt it. These things will be dimes a dozen unlike the old bursts. I think Gibson have nailed it though. These are the ones to have now let alone in 20 years
Good ta see ya again Mark
New gig! Same Mark! Thank God! Some things you can count on. 🙂
So nice to see Mark talking about guitar!
Who'd have thought that the best Gibson guitar Gibson could make would be a Gibson guitar? Crazy.
I love the left handed ones in the new line up
Your comment is funny to me also because I bought my lefty goldtop deluxe from Mark at Norms 3 years ago haha
This is the way I love them. Been a les Paul player since 1976
So good to see you back in the saddle Mark!!!!!!!!!!!
Damn Mark, you F..d up big time with the lawsuit threat. Gibson was on its way back, and now? Good luck.
Suddenly I'm interested in a Dean Guitar! That is, while they can still make them.
Miss you at Norm's, but you've landed on your feet and it's good to see you keeping things alive. Gibson is fortunate to have you.
Great to see you, Mark!
MARK!!!!!!
Ok-long,long time since I’ve said this:
This is a Gibson guitar that I would buy.
Play it first! You may need a set-up!
Ok, Sounds like the world of Gibson is finally back in order. NOW, I'm buying one!
It’s just nice to have Mark back on RUclips
Mine will be here tomorrow, got the heritage cherry sunburst
Where is it available
Steve Missico guitar center, Sweetwater, Andertons Music co in the UK
Congrats man! So pumped for you. I just ordered the 60’s in Bourbon Burst.
Smart move by Gibson hiring Mark. It does feel weird seeing him with Gibson instead of Norman though. But this is a great job for him and he deserves it
Hey everyone Mark Agnesi here at Norms- oh wait 😢
Glad to see the man again!!
Glad to see Gibson great again!
I thinks it’s finally time for me to buy my first les Paul! Now that they are back to how the should be.
Next step is the return of the long tenon next joint. Do it Mark! So happy to see you back on RUclips.
I dig this, back to what made Les Pauls great in the first place. And I also like how the volume knob supposedly actually works. Every guitar I've ever had the volume knob only had 2 positions, 10 and off lol.
Is it getting hot in here?... Just me? Alright then.
Turn on the AC and shed the jacket Mark! I'm excited for Mark and Gibson! Rock on!
Yeah!!! Mark so glad to se him around here
Hey im a fender guy , but i buy this guitar because of the 50's spec in goldtop, the finish is amazing without any flaw and it's a joy to play, the price is very fair for the quality, happy customer here 😄
So much for QC...... Ordered an upgraded AAA top version from a large online retailer- never had bad luck buying sight unseen before but there's always a first.
First up whoever scraped the binding obviously has an eyesight issue. Whoever let it pass QC must be related to the scraper.
Next up there's a high spot on a the 16th fret which makes basic set up impossible as-is
Finally there was some serious bow in the neck. Like far too unusual for a guitar built in late November and arrived at my house in December. It had to have left the factory with a bow.
The guitar does sound fantastic. I've got 4 other Les Pauls ('75-'16) and this one has a sound of it's own, but the others had zero QC issues (3 of the 4 were bought brand new).
Took it to my guitar tech and he'll fix it up- just add another 2-3 bills to your purchase price. I would have returned it for another but I have no faith in Gibson's QC on the next one either. No local retailers have a light weight cherry burst in stock so I'll just pay the extra to my tech to get it up to playability- though I really question why I'm keeping it in the first place at this price point. Pretty sure I won't be adding a 60's version to my collection unless an impeccable version ends up at my local shop so I can check it out in person.
The talk is great, the reality is a bit different.
If you don't buy the newest model of custom shop every year - you will never have the most accurate recreation of the 50's model Les Paul.
It amazes me when they say "It's the most authentic". Like, you have a real 1059 les paul sitting there. I don't know how you didn't make it the most authentic to begin with.
This one is standard run though
@@Skykingsound a 1059! That's an old as fuck guitar. I wonder how much it's worth!
@@wannaberockgod9474 lol
THANK YOU, GIBSON!
I’m buying one only because you say it’s good. You are such an authority on Guitars man. LOVE TO SEE YOU AGAIN
Hey Mark,
It's great to see you again! Congratulations on the new gig, it's a perfect fit. Oh, tell the camera person and editor, when they cut to the close up, look at the camera. Eye contact makes the message personal.
Looking forward to seeing more from you and Gibson in the future.
Good point. Watching it again now I can't stop noticing the lack of eye contact. Hopefully they see your comment.👍👍
Nice guitar, but I'd be afraid this guy would cut me if I lost the certificate of authenticity.
Great to see you "Homey" 😀💥‼️🎸
Great to see you Mark...
you've been miseed.
Glad to see Gibson getting back to basics.
And that gold top is soooDope
0:54 lol, high e string fell out of the slot
There is that famous QA you hear so much about.
@@joeyvanostrand3655 Question and Answer ?
@@booshting3520 Quality Assurance.
@@joeyvanostrand3655 Ah right. More like someone screwed up stringing it before the video rather than QC
It's amazing. Switch the $1.50 truss rod cover from "Traditional" to " Standard" and everyone swoons! Lol.
Fanboys of all brands are easily duped.
Mark is the man! Gibson guitars went way up in cred since he is working for them now.
Hi Mark. Welcome back on RUclips. GOTD Gibson, Gibson and Gibson. Yesssss.
Les Paul is my favorite guitar.
2019 Mark Agnesi era.
Never forget: Counterfeit Fonzi says,"Play Authentic!"
DAAAAAMMMM.
He looks sickly and gaunt. I think the FakeFonz may have
👍👍"AAAIIDSS". 👍👍
Tough crowd ha
...plus, not that goddamn slim taper neck anymore. Lets Rock it Boyz!
Bout DAMN TIME if you ask me.
I hate the 60's "sissy carve" taper. Bigger the better.
@@CrummyVCR finally someone with the same likes as me. Dude I hate the 60s neck. And it's not that it's bad, it's just that I prefer the 50s. Reason being is because I feel I have more control with a chunky neck, instead of a pencil. I'm super glad the 50s neck is in an affordable price. The Junior is also a winner.
@@thathorrorshow4126 I would hope the new Gibson 50s actually are a chunky neck, before the difference between 60s slim was at .800 and 50s rounded was literally .810 it was for the most part just the same guitar with a different name.... lets hope they can offer a baseball bat profile or at least somewhere in that realm.
@@CrummyVCR 60s neck makes me feel I'm playing with a toy. I can't stand them. The other day my friend handed me his 60s neck and as soon as I grabbed it I returned it to him. It brought a horrible feeling in my hands reminding me of a 60s I had. No offense to 60s lovers. I just prefer 50s.
@FuzzLord lol
Great to see you, fantastic!!!
Gibson is Back!! Can’t wait to try one of these
oh yes, thanks gibson for making a LES PAUL AGAIN.
Having a little fun with the old guard here - tastefully done. Return of th 10lb Les Paul! You're going to sell a ton of these. Then a year later - you're going to sell a ton of the light ones to the same old dudes with bad backs like me. No shame in having two.
The Guitar Geek - correct, they will use mahogany that is not graded for weight, beauty and resonance. Or more correctly, the 8k Custom Shop stuff will get the pickings, and Gibson USA will get the leavings. But you still might get lucky.
Anyways I agree with your general sentiment. Bring back heavy guitars that at least weren't trying to be 15 new things.
The boys are back in town
Thank you Gibson! I am so glad to see you making the guitars we all wanted again. Now I only have to decide between the 50’s or the 60’s Standard 🤔
I think I’ll have both 👍🏼
Was really interested in the new lp’s. I’ve played a lot of gigs with my lp’s but after all the crap about suing other guitar companies I’ve lost all interest. I’ll spend my money with Prs or Suhr. It’s a shame.
So all you did was take the Old Gibson Les paul traditional and make it into the Standard..LOL.. Good Thinking
Damn it has been a MINUTE! So good to see you back on youtube with a guitar in your hand Mark !!!
Good to see Mark again. I’m now a Gibson subscriber.
That commercial from last week just destroyed your credibility as a player. And after you used to complain that the Hendrix estate came after you for playing some of his riffs....
Are you authorised to play that guitar on youtube? Watch out, Gibson will sue you for playing that guitar! They may want payment for you showing the logo on that guitar, especially since they stole the headstock design and the body shape from guitars that were made well before the les paul! Epic move! You may finally run the Gibson company into the ground this time.
Shit man they're gonna sue me for getting an epiphone too.
Mr. Agnesi, lovely to see you back! My what kick-ass sounding guitars your slinging!!
Our boy Mark is back at it!!
Is Gibson going to start paying a percentage royalty for using a signature violin top sihouette?
Yeah, guitars like in the 50's, cause we're not in 2019...
Guitar design has barely shifted since then on many primary guitars. The PRS core is a design from the 80's and is still as popular as ever with stage bands. How much modern sound is digital anyway? The list goes on. If something ain't broke, don't fck it up. Gibson are just learning that now. Modern models, are something else.
It's about time someone in Nashville started paying attention. This is a nice start.
So cool to see Les Pauls as they should be! No gimmicks, no crap. Good stuff Mark
