- Опубликовано: 18 окт 2024
- This super rare 13-inch-wide, electric solid body TV Junior weighs just 7.10 lbs. Solid mahogany body with the original 'TV' light-washed mahogany finish on body and neck. One-piece mahogany neck with a nut width of just over 1 11/16 inches, a standard Gibson scale length of 24 3/4 inches and a wonderful thick 'baseball-bat' profile. Brazilian rosewood fretboard with 22 original thin frets and inlaid pearl dot markers. Black-faced headstock with "Gibson" logo and "Les Paul TV Junior" silk-screened in gold. Single-layer black plastic, bell-shaped truss-rod cover with two screws. Three-in-a-line Kluson Deluxe 'single-line' 'no-name' strip tuners with oval white plastic buttons. Serial number inked-on in black on the back of the headstock. Single-layer black plastic pickguard with three screws. One P-90 pickup (in the bridge position) with an output of 7.73k. Black plastic pickup cover stamped on the underside "UC - 450-1 / 2". Two controls (one volume, one tone) on lower treble bout. The potentiometers are stamped "615 2632 518" (ROC, May 1955). Original "Grey Tiger" capacitor. Black plastic bell-shape "Bell" control knobs. Original combination wrap-over bar bridge/tailpiece with two intonation screws. There is some overall finish checking and a few surface marks and indentations, mainly on the top, the edges of the body and the back of the neck. When we removed the truss-rod cover on this guitar we noticed that the nut on the end of the truss-rod had sheared off. We sent the guitar to our expert luthier Scott Lentz who has professionally restored the truss-rod to full working order. Overall this all original fifty-nine year old, very rare Les Paul TV Junior is in exceptionally fine (9.00) condition. Housed in the original Gibson three-latch softshell 'Aligator' case with brown felt lining (9.00). There are two examples of this rare finish featured in The Early Years of the Les Paul Legacy 1915-1963 by Robb Lawrence (p. 181). "Two extremely rare 1955 Les Paul TV models with the unique light-washed "natural" finish."

Just have to say... The DRUM FILL at 15:10 !!!!! P O W ! Randy is SICK
Thanks for mentioning that or I might have missed it. That was tight.
Makes me feel like jamming. Calling my drummer now haha.
My God does that P90 scream during Mississippi Queen!
All I can say is Phil x is one of great guitar players of our time. What I like is he plays the way he wants to which makes him quite unique. He doesn't play every song the same , he plays it his way which is fantastic. Thanks for being refreshing.
Absolutely
Rock Candy, Bad Motor Scooter, Funk 49, Mississippi Queen, Awesome tunes and the Drills are an excellent band.
It goes without saying that I love Phill, his playing and his comments. I've also gotta say some lovin' comments about the drills, they are awesome - the drumming and the bass are amazing. Thanks guys.
Man!that thing is freakin 65 years old!no wonder it may not stay in perfect tune!sounds awesome! Phil's the king of covers!
One of the best sounding guitars you've done, sounds fantastic
Mate I could listen to you for hours. Brilliant guitar and great singing and double funny. Cheers for that.
Thanks for the Montrose Phil!
That performance with the Drills at the end? HFS! That is a masterpiece Phil!
You've been a huge inspiration to my guitar playing. Mississippi Queen is a song that still eludes me. Keep that motivation coming Phil!
Did you ever get it?
I fucking miss Phil X! Whatever BonJovi is paying him we should take up a collection and match it and have him perform exclusively for us!
Great guitar, great tones Phil.🎸👍
GOD DAMN! I've never seen a non-Joe Walsh band do Funk 49 so much justice. The Drill kick some serious ass.
Yay a Junior! My all time favourite guitar!
These and Melody Makers have to be my favorite vintage guitars. And watching Phil X is always fun, riff dictionary+epic skill.
God that LPJ and Silvertone are a killer combo
he's switching in his old 2203 for the Joe Walsh stuff ;)
You should do a cover like this with the band in every guitar review , that would be so awesome !
Phil's energy is so rad
I love this and Phil so much!!! Making my day worth living right now!!
You have a brilliant beautiful mind Phil X Thank you! Greeks can ROCK!
Considering you were basically playing a 50's/60's budget rig for the first part of this video, I don't see why people upgraded to LP standards and Marshall's. It sounds awesome!
Sure. 2 words, STAGE PRESENCE !
watching fill makes me smile!
I love that you play CORDS to show off the true sound of the guitar. not just lead as others do.
He's playing on a 65 year old guitar with a Sears and Roebuck amplifier.....Damn !
And it sounds great !
Old over the hill drummer here but always loved guitar since I was 6 yrs old when my Gma bought one for me but couldn't play a lick... I still try and collect a few today....love your vids,,,ur my guitar hero..lol
all you do is golden magic an thanks for sharing
I think the cover song(s) that are performed with the band at the end of each video should be released as an album! Or as singles on iTunes. Some of them are truly awesome.
Phil is funny as hell! Mississippi queen and here come the drums … Blump mm plugh! Love this guy!
Jr sounds awesome with the band!!!!
Rocking the James Gang-- sounds great!
Amazing tone, amazing playing with pre/early 60's equipment. Funny how nobody played or sounded like that then. Thanks Phil X
Missed you Phil! Hope you're loving being a dad!
yes I am
philx1111 You're Badass
That guy is a god damned good guitar player.
Phil....tell Billy that his version of OH WELL is by far the best tribute to Peter Green's Fleetwood Mac ever, I still listen to it every time I have a MAC ATTACK!!!!!
That can bit will probably end up being my favorite Phil X moment of the year.
adds a new dimension with the live band , totally hear the guitar in context even though phils good on his own.
This guy is so adorable.... love it.
Melody maker is cheaper and sounds the same
the OLD BBQ grille 2203 sits waiting for some love :)
Drummer is gittin' it done here - love how the Marshall's pushing the speakers - sounds awesome - good job boys!
I love the vibe of that guitar!! So cool.
True musicians right there!
Is that weird that when I watch your videos I speak and sing songs with u? God I know it all :D
Sweet solo, man.
Cow bells!!! Excellent. Thanks again.
What a tone - sounds great! Loved the VH too
Outstanding Funk# 49 cover. That Junior sounds great.
Best way to start a friday!
I'm just back from my holydays (with no internet ) and i find out there's a new Phil X vid .
And an awesome one with this magic cover of Funk 49.
That's the cure when you're going back to work and you're a bit depressed.
Thx to Phil, The Drills and FA.
Keep rockin' man!
Phil, you are sick in the best way, rock on my man!
That LP Jr. inspired some great music choices. Cool vid.
totally dig the jams at the end. It never fails.. I watch these at work and EVERY DAMN TIME I wanna run home and practice!
and yep - Randy is sick but hey, no love for the bass player? Homey kicks ass.
Killer guitar. In love with the Lp Junior.
Damn! What a guitar!
nice guitar. I think that funk 49 jam was my favorite so far with the band!
Don't listen to what anyone says. Open chords sounds great.
Phil X rocks out like he's still in his 20s. Awesome cover \m/
Guitar sounded so good it didn't require much description. All in that tone. Beautiful.
Looks better in black and white, though!
perfect sound!!
That Silvertone amp is COOL
Hey Phil X, you rock! great playing and vocals as usual!!
I always got inspired when I see your videos, just finish watching it and go grab my guitar to jam :))
That was the best jam yet! :)
That is one beautiful guitar. Love to get a hold of that
Damn that guitar has some balls!
Silvertone sounds pretty good!
Damn, that guitar sounds awesome.
fucking loved that rendition of '49
Best ending jam yet
Gotta see end of vid last couple of minutes. So rad!!!!
Amazing cover of Funk 49
Bad ass guitar!
I think it would be rad if Phil played a tom delonge start :D
I want that 55 light washed LPJ - Tone is Kick-Ass
That guitar sounds like rock and roll
I gots a 74' Gibson L6S ( fell out of the unlocked case and snapped the headstock off leaving guitar camp class in 91'.It was repaired) Similar color to this LP Junior. I dream some day of putting a neck on it like the guitar in this vid
i miss the vibe from the original room with all the guitars hanging around and stuff...he just seemed to be having more fun there.
THEY FINALLY DID FUNK 49!!!
Watching #philxfriday on fretted americana always brings a smile to my face! Great guy, great vids and great guitars! Your choice of tunes to review the instrument is always awesome! When I see that a new video is up, I'M F**KING HAPPY!!!! Keep up the good work! Greetings from Guadalajara, Mexico my friends! Hope to have you down here one day and share a bottle of fiiiiine Tequila!!! Saludos!
i really love this van halen song
So mostalgicnto me and gibes me goosebumps everytime i hear it
Hey Man!!!! I picked up an old silver tone twin twelve like that from a friend a few years ago, and it really made me smile to see you play it. Mine still has the original tubes in it that test out great. I use my Bad Monkey to make her SCREAM!!!! This amp was worthless untill Jack played it on the tonight show, now I post pics on CL some times just to see the crazy offers I get.
Sounds great
I would genuinely love to see a video, one of these days, of Phil X getting to jam with Sammy Hagar. I'm talking generally, obviously.
When Phil went into the Marshall to do Women in Love I was thinking "That's the sound!"
Fucking killed funk 49 man. Great sounding guitar too!
Wow! The drills rendition of funk 49 is way better than than the original! I had to watch it twice! Great job Phil x and the drills!
If you had ever seen it live you'd know that's not true. Haha. Saw them in person a month ago. It made me speechless.
Helicopter / Kiss my troublemaker. I-tunes awesome stuff
Ive seen Phil play a lot of guitars on here but this one seems like its really good for him and his style. Phil buy this guitar
amazing like always!
Thanks
Guitar sounds great
Waited the whole video for "Don't Fear The Reaper", it never came.
Deadly!!
damn dude. Fucking rocking. You should have been a rock star
I know this music from Blues Saraceno record... didn't know it was a cover, great tune and great performance xD
Goddamn that Plexi is a beast, I've never heard a guitar played through it sound bad.
Killer version of Funk #49. Your bandmates were grooving like crazy.
Man I love me a LPJ.. Honestly I haven't heard a bad sounding one, their
dog ear p90's just scream, awesome cover for reals.
+Reverend D I got a Junior for £400. The cost of the gear this bloke's on probably cost a lot more.
COWBELL.....hell yea...
LiVe WiRe MoTlEy CreU!
Thanks for the history lesson (TV yellow). The Extra zero is usually a technical term that means higher precision, they supposedly weighed it down hundredths of a pound, rather than just tenths of a pound. Though, whether that is true in practice remains to be seen.
HELL YEA! New Phil X!
