ORIGINAL 1959 Gibson Les Paul Standard BURST w/Aaron Heibert!

- Опубликовано: 23 июл 2023
- This beauty of a Burst has been in the hands of collectors and rock stars over the course of its life, and has been called one of the best by a number of people who would know! It came to our shop recently, sold almost immediately, and has been a joy to have around - and since we had it in hand, we thought we'd bring in Aaron Hiebert to show you what it sounds like through two excellent amplifiers - a Jim Kelley Line Amp + 65 Amps 2x12 cabinet, and a tried true and trusted Fender Vibrolux Reverb.
For more information please give us a call or check out:

I love the up close, high-def slow rolls over the surface of the guitar! So cool to see these guitars at the micro level like that.
Thanks for continuing to document these Bursts! Most of us will never get to touch one much less own one. At least we get to see them in these beautiful quality videos played by an amazing player. Cheers
I touched one once. It was almost exactly 30 years ago and I was about 16 and had no earthly idea what I was touching. I don't care for Les Pauls and was likely unimpressed with the story that went with it, but I did have it in my lap for a few minutes. Of course at the time they weren't fetching the astronomical sums they are now.
I have played two 59’s, a 58, and a 1960. The stuff Gibson Custom Shop is putting out will get you close enough to the vibe and feel without spending six figures. The 1958 I played was the best IMO in terms of feel and tone
@@Harvard_Fairway Not to mention that occasionally you'll come across a relatively inexpensive guitar that can get you there as well. With the newest wave of Custom Shop guitars Gibson finally figured out that half the battle was slightly unevenly wound pickups with no wax potting, the Custombuckers. That's the juice. That's why those old PAFs sound the way they do. With no wax to hold the windings in place they loosen over time making them slightly microphonic. That's the vibe, and why players spend lots of money on boutique pickups with those characteristics. Sure, the wood, glue, construction methods, wiring/pots and all that stuff matters, but it matters a hell of a lot less when the pickups are caked in wax and essentially can't breathe for lack of a better term.
@@maxpeck4154 they are selling "greenybuckers" on the gibson page now
OK, now I’m gonna watch this again.
No shit man lol!!!!
The old ones worth $500k are always the best sounding ones they’ve ever heard. No one pays $500k and says, it sounds bad.
of course. after paying that much you wouldnt wanna say that.
God damn... that sounded good. That dirty sound was killer. Thanks for sharing.
Thats the sound of Rock and Roll that beautiful hoarseness what a beautiful Burst.
Holy mother of god... What guitar! What tone! What playing!
Beautiful playing Aaron! I so appreciate you demonstrating in a short amount of time all the clean and overdriven tones this guitar has! Thanks!✌️❤️
Thank you for sharing!! Every angle was beautiful!!!
thanks for the demo, amazing instrument, inspired Aaron just to the top, our pleasure to watch it.
He is so good.... I wish that I could sit down with him and take lessons.
Now I get it........that was the most beautiful edge of tone I have ever heard.. thank you..
Proof that old les Pauls can be kept in amazing condition. It sounds fantastic!
A privilege to watch that.
Great guitar and playing 💙
That's a great sounding burst!
Good lord, your demo guy killed it!
Excellent, as always! 😎
Aaron is simply the best tamer for these B……. …. .. ..
B…. … .. ..
Beasts !!!!
Yes a full show
We've got a lot of projects going on in addition to these, but I'm trying to the right balance of these and short demos for you guys! -Ken
Great tone machine!
Great sounding guitar
Guitar sounds great but there’s a lot of the player in those tones, not just the instrument. Cheers on the amazing riffs!
Insane condition on this one. Gorgeous tones too of course.
Stunning!
Nice to see some good amps and such a raw recording. So many people selling these guitars try to make them sound super warm and even muddy, to make a sale.
Why would someone wanna make their les paul sound more muddy?
@@pperejma Easy. You go listen to say Eric Clapton on the Mono Beano album and his guitar sounds warm, right? Well it wasn't, and none of them are. You're listening to recording studio engineers killing off any harsh treble and messing with the EQ to get a pleasing sound. You're not hearing reality, you're hearing engineering art. So, dealers want you to spend more than half a million dollars on an old Les Paul and they are afraid to let you hear how incredibly bright PAF's ARE. ESPECIALLY, if the PAF's in are the typical 7.5K range that the official winding count of 10,000 total winds will give you. In bridge position a 7.5K PAF will break glass and clean your ears out :-) So what they do it drag out an old muddy Tweed Deluxe that has zero headroom and no treble. OR, they will use a pedal, so all you hear is the pedal, not the guitar. Also beware when you see them miking the amp, which means its going into a DAW where you can clip any uncomfortable frequencies OUT of the audio, so again, you're not really hearing the guitar. When it comes to huge money, watch your back, I've seen some really horrific demos of vintage LP's using every trick in the book.
@@SDPickups this is fascinating. I have a 65 es 335 with pat numbers that are very bright, but I love that tone. That to me is the classic sound of the 60s.
Best one yet.
Damn those were a ĺot of perfect tones I ever heard!
Great playing.
I’m not really a Les Paul guy, but I literally cried within seconds of hearing him play this thing.
Oh my goodness. If I only had the money. EXCELLENT video.
GOOD GOD!!!! IT SOUNDS AWESOME!! thnx for the upload.
Yup...it's all that.
Got that "big" sound.
Awesome!
I hope it gets played and not stuck in a vault forever.
2:53 when you feel the urge to play black dog but afraid of getting copyrighted
lol getting a little close to Led Zep there I was thinking.
I’ll be there next week to pick it up with 6 briefcases full of cash.
Too late!
Even he couldn’t resist some zeppelin on that guitar 😂
What was the first amp?
Thats a tone rocket, a Satern V of tone vehicles!!!
Beautiful guitar and it sounds fantastic.
That also shows how close the modern Custom Buckers pickups are to the originals in terms of brightness, openness and dynamics. My R8 sounds almost identical.
Personal taste here : I would have rolled the tone knob down just a bit through that amp.
Please notice the amount of checking present on this model. Barely none.. the light aged lab models are a lil overkill. That’s what a genuine well kept guitar looks like.
I wish I had a couple of these to sell lol. This thing costs more than my house and the 2 other houses on my street combined
In the 80's, they were 10K or less!
@@jault69 a wad still, even in those days but definitely not as crazy priced as they are nowadays
Really? You obviously don't live in California...
@mattrogers1946 obviously lol. A porta shitter cost around 90 grand in that state. I'd never live in that state. Rural town in the midwest is where I'm stuck
@@alexwoolridge94aw Sorry to hear that...
Lucky customer.
Sorry,i missed the Powerball...next time!!!🙊🙉🙈
Wonderful tones. Thanks for sharing this beauty to our delight. Who knows, some day I"ll earn the cash... I would rush right away to purchase it. I'm single now.😎🤞
What song is he playing from 3:54?
He is also good ˋlaying bursts
Mike is my friend too...
What's the signal chain?
The top carve of these old bursts is amazing - the Custom Shop can't reproduce it for some reason. Loved the Jimmy Page homage in the beginning.
Dude..........wow.
Wait untill i get new 0,9 stringset to my Harley Benton!?!? 😂
🔥 🔥
so is the first year of les paul guitars?
1952
I bet Bonamassa copped it 😂
😅
How much does it weigh?
Me likey
It sounds ok 😋
Heard a brief appearance by suicide solution…👍🏼
how did yall get the tone for the intro?
Karl Van Der Velden > 1958 Fender Strat > 1966 Vibrolux Reverb > Shure SM7B close + Zoom H6 XY room mic (120 degrees).
Thanks!
@@emeraldcityguitars Thanks, that's why I tune in!
Shame these cannot be replicated exact in sound at the Custom shop price😢
Gibson did good enough looks wise on the Re-issues but they fall really short in tone when compared to a old one!
Huh. It didn't sound $399,000 better than the one I checked out in the local store last month. That vibrolux though? Shit. It's clear why it's the amplifier of choice for these demos.
I agree. It’s sounds exactly like my Heritage loaded with Throbak Pickups.
@@maxwellblakely7952 probably doesn't play as well. Guarantee it has an uncomfortably fat neck, at least for me it would. And sorry frets.
@@philbert006 its a piece of guitar history. hence the price. its like buying a playable piece of art. Do you think a 2 million dollar Stradivarius sounds 2 million dollars better than a professional level newer violin?
@@strawsparky33 I do not have any personal experience with violins, so I can't say for sure. But that's not exactly the same thing. I'm more than 500-year-old violin handmade by a guy that didn't share his processes or any of the materials that he used to make those violins and even the wood to make them as so scarce if it can even be found at all that it kind of puts those in a whole different ball game. They still make The Les Paul, with the same materials, and the very same processes that they did 70 years or so ago when they started. I'm not going to say you're not even in the same ballpark with that analogy, it's the same sport, just not the same league. Just not what I would call historic. An early '50s gold top? That's historic. A 1950 broadcaster? Definitely historic. After all that being said, it's whatever. Is somebody wants to pay that for guitar that does something for them for whatever reason, that's a okay. Is it unique? Well I'd argue that every guitar is unique no matter what. To be honest, the value of an item is whatever a: the seller is willing to part with it for and b: whatever the buyer is willing to pay for it. Whether either of those correlate with with the market is irrelevant. It might be what you would consider significant historically. But does it do something special? Does it do something that all the other guitars don't? Not really. I feel like a lot of it depends on the purpose as well. If you're buying it is a work and instrument, looking for a specific sound or style, you could certainly find a better guitar for whatever those purposes may be in every way possible that makes a whole lot more economic sense. If you're buying it just a museum piece or a physical thing to retain the value of your money or even if it's just something you want to hang up and enjoy on your wall, well if that's the one you like then that's the one for the job and it's worth whatever you're willing to pay. Do not really a matter of black and white, even if I did make it kind of sound that way. It's just like everything in life, a million shades of gray and it's all about trying to figure out which one is best for you.1
@strawsparky33 I agree. If these instruments didn't possess something newer guitars don't have, no one would pay these exorbitant prices. If a present day German or Italian luthier made violins as good as they did in the 17th century owning a Strad wouldn't be such a big deal.
What product do you use to clean the flame maple top?

the subreddit r/guitarcirclejerk is SEETHING at this demonstration
I have that sub on Reddit but did not see it. Have a link?
Thank you for showing us a rich guitarist’s guitar Going to another rich guitarist . Shouldn’t everyone get to play the guitar ? I thought Seattle was for the little guy?
It’s a killer guitar. I’m glad to get to see it.
Bonamassa gets another one!
Haha, that's actually what I thought when Mike Hickey was mentioned. I assumed he could have been trying it out on behalf of Joe
beautiful～( ノД`)…
Everyone would be stoked if this LP turned out to be a forgery.
Wuhuuu😍🥵
Jo Bo
I'd like to see a blindfold test with someone who spent 500K... up against every copy from $100 upward. Bellyaching laughs assured.
And some tears i imagine 😂
Tones in the fingers not a 6 figure price tag
I’ll take that challenge. Give me whatever guitar, amp cord and a vintage tube amp. Nothing else, you’ll hear the difference, best believe that.
💵💵💵💵💵💵💵
Poor guy just wants to play Black Dog without getting sued
Don't care what idiots are prepared to pay for them these are just guitars. 20 years ago, nobody gave a shit about these guitars. Nothing magical about them other than their price.
Nobody gave a shit about them? Lol tell me you know nothing about music history without telling me.
The more I listen to 59 bursts the more I noticed les Paul’s aren’t my thing
Good for you
What do you like better?
@@jsbobek teles jazzmaster harmony rockets
-doesn’t plug it into a Marshall 😑
Probably just wanted to be modest ;p
Ok $300 plus my tele ,come on 🤡😊
People, stop fooling yourselves. This guitar sounds like all the others.
What is the other guitar? I wanna know
Stop fooling yourself
looks fake
Please stop the noodling. We want to hear classic rock!
They would get copyright striked. Just appreciate the tone
There was a bit of Black Dog and Simple Man in there if you were listening. I'd call that classic rock.
Ok boomer
@@pperejma Ooooo, that's original 🥱😴
for sale?
eh
Thanks for the Candy
