    Mark always played songs that brought out the best in the guitars and without special effects, well, other than overdrive. The guy can play, too. All Gibson had to do is watch him on RUclips and it was bye bye Norms, hello Nashville. No one does this show better than Mark.

    I must say I’ve never liked the looks of a junior. I feel like in comparison to nearly all other actual full size LPs, the junior has always looked cheap to me, and in ways where it didn’t feel like Gibson tried really at all to make the guitar look appealing. However, this video has made it glaringly clear why people love them: that tone. I’m sure many prefer the minimalist features and simplicity of the axe as well, but to me that sort of jangly, bell-like chime is priceless. And on a Gibson! Beautiful demo. The tonal character of the guitar and amp are represented attractively here.

    "They gave these to children, Chad!! What were they thinking?!" M's enthusiasm is compelling, and the guitar warrants it. I used to wonder what kind of fuzz boxes the 60's bands used, and I see now it was the guitars themselves, no special effects necessary.
