CME Presents: The Bursts
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 26 авг 2024
- Right now, at this very moment, we have three Bursts under one roof, and we want to tell you about them. The Burst evolved out of Gibson's very first solid-body guitar, the 1952 Les Paul. Issued initially as a Gold Top, the Les Paul got a new look in 1958, when Gibson introduced a new model with a sunburst finish: the Les Paul Standard. Our '59 Burst, '60 Burst, and '60 "Scarface" Burst are excellent examples of this landmark guitar.
The Burst evolved out of Gibson's very first solid-body guitar, the 1952 Les Paul. Issued initially as a Gold Top, the Les Paul got a new look in 1958, when Gibson introduced a new model with a sunburst finish: the Les Paul Standard. Coloring the solid Honduran mahogany bodies with aniline dye, Gibson's Les Paul Standards featured a deep red hue that, with time, would react to ultraviolet light and other environmental conditions to bleed, fade, and otherwise change. Our '59 Burst, '60 Burst, and '60 "Scarface" Burst are excellent examples of this landmark guitar and beautifully illustrate how each early Burst is different from any other, both visually and sonically. While the Les Paul was changing with almost every year since it's initial release, the debut of the Les Paul Standard in 1958 is perhaps the most significant and substantial change to the legendary model, made more so by the 1957 introduction of the humbucker.

Bringing 3 bursts to a single location is how you summon Joe Bonamassa.
I'm surprised he hasn't bought these yet lol
TJ Anthony fuck Joe Bonamassa
gibsondrummer his music is trash but I like his knowledge and passion. His playing is amazing as well.
Why is that guy trying to buy every great old guitar in the world?
@@gibsondrummer no kiddin.
So great to live across the street from this store.
Braxton Lambert I’d be flat broke living there.
Nice ;)
Braxton Lambert when I visited chicago last year that was all I wanted to do. Every other touristy thing was secondary. And once i did it felt super surreal
Oh man, your savings account must always be plundered!
Oh, yeah? Bet it is.
It just wouldn't be a Les Paul demo without playing some Zeppelin. I love it.
what song was that?
Ramble On
was he playing a Les Paul on that record? I know on Zep 1 he was using a Tele right?
Lucas Parks
Yes, Jimmy Page used a tele aka the dragon tele on led zep 1 but in April of 1969 he got his famous #1 1959 les Paul burst that he used on everything from led zep 2 to their last album and live. I did use a tele on the stairway solo and a couple other songs. But if you watch any clips from the song remains the same show at MSG in 1973 he uses that famous les Paul he also played a strat on In The Evening on the In Through The Out Door album. But mostly his les Paul. If your wondering about amps and effects he used a Marshall Plexi live and smaller combo amps in the studio. For effects he used a Echoplex Tape Echo Delay and fuzz or overdrive he also used phaser and chorus.
No mention of Peter Green nullified the whole video.
these guitars will never see the inside of a club again
Darrien Day I hope they atleast will be played by some people on some albums.
They will, wait like 200 years, when people will play extreme guitar solos with them in space. LOL .
maybe its for the best... to have these old boys retire... to preserve them in order for everyone to enjoy (like this video)
These days if they were in a club they'd be tuned down to C so a guy could growl like Cookie Monster over them.
@@arthowardmusic3209 that's fine. as long as they're getting played. and if they get broken or damaged, eh-comes with the territory sometimes haha
I rarely, and by rarely I mean almost never, comment on videos. But this was glorious. The history lesson along with the performances just struck me in a way most content doesn't. I could watch these guys play all day. More please.
This is a wonderful tribute to the 58-60 Les Pauls with some great song choices "Ramble On" "Waiting For An Alibi" "In The Light" and the tone on "Hideaway" absolutely nails it, when I was a 16 year old all the guitarists I admired played one of these incredible instruments. They are rightly hailed as the Holy Grail of electric guitars. Thank you to all CME for this video.
What great recording/mixing. Jeeze. So much effort for a RUclips video.
unreal sound engineering, amazing
The clarity from those guitars when doing some of the open sounding chords was just great
So much effort to sell three guitars for around 1.5 million bucks. Totally makes sense to me. ;)
That was 11:53 of my life well spent. Wow.
Something about this take of Ramble On reaches pretty deep. It captures a part of what brings people to the guitar in the first place. Getting a touch emotional here but this content made me feel something.
Reminds me of when jimmy was doing the voice over and also playing it in the film It Might Get Loud
If Zep don't get you fired up, your wood is wet!
If you recorded the full songs, you should release them separately on RUclips
Whipping post was gorgeous.
Teran Andes I don't think they'd be allowed to, copyrights and so on.
@@The_sinner_Jim_Whitney World became a pussy these days.
@@jcsk8 lawyers, man.
The Gibson Les Paul is guitar perfection even with its imperfections!
This was epic, guys! Love the history and the jams. And I love my CME Burst!
WOW! Awesome guitars! I really enjoyed the musicians doing this video! I thought they played really good. Guys it was a pleasure to listen to you play these iconic guitars! Job well done!
Easily the best video you've done to date. Not only because of the Lp's. But when that Zep kicks in it's pure magic. Great Jams thru out! Well done! And that tone(s)!
in the light is a super underrated zeppelin cut - quintessential les paul tone
Agreed! Thanks for watching!
Splendid work chaps. Congrats to everyone involved in the production of this video
This makes me so happy. Love seeing CME doing their thing with this over other stores that do the same boring thing each time. Also have one of the best guitar players aroudn demoing.
Such tasty, tasty players! Thank you so much for taking so much time to share these gems with us. I know how much effort this stuff takes and I’m so grateful that you guys give us a taste of these things most of us will never experience, in the flesh.
Nice work!
Great playing guys! It was a pleasure to hear these guitars played so well...
wow man... this intro with Ramble on was just breathtaking...
Great playing, beautiful tones .... Thank you for the Zep, the Allmans and especially the Lizzy ...
If I could only have one of these bursts for my very own.. It would obviously make me a better player automatically without the hours of practice or more importantly- the natural desire and passion for music that youth once provided me with seemingly endless bounds. Decent tone from these three guys too.. Gonna have to check out that Marshall SV20C in person soon.
What I find amazing about Guitars in general, is that they never wear out or break beyond repair so just about all that were ever made still exist now, and millions more are made every year!
Wow , you guys can play ! Loved this vid , especially "Waiting for an Alibi " took me way back ......Thank you .
In the Light played in a demo. That's a first. I would listen to all instrumental tracks like this all day. Love it guys.
Well done boys!! I love the narration and the live music!! This is how it should be done!!
Y'all are awesome for this, thank you. They sound incredible. I swear, there's just this small gang of irreparably damaged souls that go around disliking videos like this
Thank you for putting so much effort in sharing this. Those gems will most probably disappear in the inventories of some rich collectors until they will rotate again, so us common people can at least participate @here
Thin Lizzy is the perfect song to play with two bursts
Thanks for making this video. It is great to see how different each guitar really is.
this was so great. thank you.
Outstanding video. Amazing tones and an excellent presentation
One of the best introducing for the bursts and the history of Gibson products. They must've enjoyed playing those so much, good choice of songs too!!
Oh man, just great stuff all around, instruments and performances. Shout out to Joel Bauman - I've bought two beauties from him, and he has taken supremely good care of me 👌👍👍👍🎸🎸. Great playing, Joel!!!
I've shopped at the music exchange and sold an old epiphone. The whole team were incredibly nice ppl and it's always a treat to make a road trip to get there.great place, great ppl
I could watch this over and over again. It's a problem. You guys are so good. Love the room jams with Zep and Allman Bros.
God bless you guys, thank you for sharing this video with us.
I love this video. Thanks for sharing the history of this great instrument.
those bursts look so good I feel like I just climbed the rope in gym class ! I wish I was joking
Hell. Yes.
Thank you CME for this absolutely awesome video. Killer playing and tones!
Was not expecting Waiting For An Alibi that was pretty frickin awesome
Thanks for share these great parts of the history of rock
Amazing! Thanks so much for sharing these and offering some history on them!
Awesome video gentlemen!! Happy to say I have a R8 plain top and a R0 60th anniversary edition. What an incredible guitar that R0!!! There will be a R-9 in the future! I just bought a 98% condition CME Tomato Burst! So far it's a winner, BIG time!!
An exceptional piece of living history. So well done guys.
The guitarists in this video are outstanding! Very impressed!
In the Light! Great choice!
Cool video. Thanks for sharing.
Awesome production. 👍🏼
It's only in recessions (the US have entered one probably, confirmations are always after the fact) that we realize all the hoopla and hyperbole surrounding vintage guitars (let alone bursts!). Bad moment to have so many of them in inventory. Emerald City Guitars have like six unsold... ouch. This being said, I love this CME store , one of my favorites by far. I hope they unload them soon. The guitars will come back to their value in the next upwards economic cycle, so I hope some buyers see this as an opportunity.
JSpic I hope not. I hope their value drops to the point that performing musicians might be able to play them live and maybe have an impact like some of the legends that have owned them before them. Burst values are absolutely ridiculous, they're just guitars.
Actually this is the best demo I've ever heard on Legit 58, 59 or 60 Burst's. That TONE!! Gravy of the Gods right there and killing guitar playing as well. Really enjoyed this one thank you!
Thank you! Subscribe for more!
That was freakin awesome, well done! I learned some things I did not know and was completely entertained. Loved all of the jams and those guitars.
Thanks for posting this video. Great sound and playing.
Nice video and playing. Great job, guys. Thanks for sharing.
Great Video ... Bravo!!
You said the Burst was the only solid body Gibson made with PAF's. You apparently forgot about the Explorer and the Flying V (and the Moderne if one ever truly saw the light of day). And of course the '57 Goldtop had PAF'S.
Some fine demo tones and playing! Really enjoyable to listen to.
Best guitar channel ever! Fantastic sounds and video!
Excellent video guys. Beautiful guitars. 😍😍😍 And great playing!
Great video and great jam
Gentlemen… great playing !!!
Great presentation! Well done gents. Wish I lived closer to CME to get a look at all these in person :-)
great to see joel back doing a video.
Band sounds great! Very nice display/demo of the instruments.
I lived in Rockford for a few years, and I didn’t know about CME until right before I had to move away. But I went and spent a couple hours there just the one time. I had so much fun, and got to play and hold things I never have anywhere else. My first full Marshall stack. I think it’s fine the bursts cost so much, but I played a reissue Clapton beano that day, which was 8 grand. I thought it really really average. My friend bought a studio faded that visit, and I liked it a lot more than the “old “ beano guitar. But that’s just subjective, it was probably good. Doesn’t matter, it was a lot of fun and everyone was very friendly. 👍🎶
I liked the CME jam at the end of the video. You guys should give it a name.
Great video!! Enjoyed the history lesson 😎🤘🏼🤘🏼
..how did I miss this? Excellent playing, gents.
Thank you!
Great video! Nothing better than a burst
What beautiful guitars!
THE sound of rock!
Wow!!! Great playing!
That's a great jam guys. Nice one!
that dude can play , wow
Great tune selection. ! 👌
I've always been a fender guy, but have definitely had less Paul fever for a little bit here recently. Fingers crossed on the custom shop 60th anniversary.
Andrew VanNieuwenhze get one u won’t b sorry
It's great. I wound up ordering the Wildwood spec 1960 though because of the neck profile. Basically the same with a thinner neck
Great video great playing 👍
One of the interesting things about PAFs (to me anyway) is that they're *not* high-output pickups in terms of overall level, yet they push just the right frequencies to get amps all hot & bothered. This quality seems to be the most elusive one when it comes to modern PAF repros.
🤩WOW🤩
A little Whipping Post, awesome...and appropriate!
“How they all reacted to life...”
That's amazing. Just like people...
After hearing ramble on it put mein mind of page playing ramble on in it might get loud and i am stuck by how incredible pages duncan custom shop bridge pickup in his number 1 sounds. It sounds amazingly close to a real paf . I wonder how many people will comment on this video by saying i thougjt page played all that stuff on a tele.
Fantastic video guys, thanks for giving us a taste of barely-obtanium. Bonus points for cool songs and playing😊🔥🤘
Our pleasure!
Awesome!
Right when I was just about to get a strat, you guys remind me what the coolest guitar ever is 😎
Get Nik Huber Orca instead!
The Gibson Les Paul is guitar perfection even with its imperfections!
SUBSCRIBE & TURN ON NOTIFICATIONS TO NEVER MISS A CME DOCUMENTARY!
Glad to hear some Bloomfield recognition from these Chicago boys. Makes sense i suppose
One of the 60's model is completely defective xD. Look at the "dancing pickguard" at 00:18. Please send me the guitar as soon as possible!!
Jaime Cerrada just don’t tell anyone that that “defect” can be corrected with a screwdriver 😉
it is not a myth ...they are the stradavarius of guitars !!! The sustain ...and the growl and grunt and smoothness ...has yet to be matched or equaled !
perfect paf tone!
My two favorite guitarists you guys have (I still love you Andrew i promise!) in one place! We need more Joel and Nathaniel playing together in my life!
Love Thin Lizzy.......
Gibson LesPaul got 7 and there's nothing better for a solid body electric guitar Get one!
Love Shelby looking at his phone instead of the guitar :)
These would have been obscure 50's Gibsons if it wasn't for Clapton.
God those are sexy guitars
Back when Gibson actually cared about innovation and quality and not just selling a name on a headstock.
@0:30 YES!!!
Pretty sure I played that tomato soup red ‘60 when I went to CME a few years back.
Sick!
