Before watching, I gotta say, Glen is like the exact opposite of me as a guitarists Haha! I still enjoy the videos because it's clear you guys are good friends with good chemistry and that's really enjoyable.
@@caiusmadison2996 Burny is fernandes; you’re thinking of Orville, which is literally Gibson japan. Burny, Greco, and Edwards LPs are “lawsuit” versions of Les Pauls and use the same dimensions, but different types of paint and different hardware
@@caiusmadison2996No, it's not - luckily ;) And in my opinion a Burny is far preferable over a Gibson - they are seriously well built (better than G), a *LOT* cheaper, Burny's play and sound great (I've yet to see a bad one...), and they really hold their value if you would sell it later on.
You guys are amazing friends. Way to follow through on your promise. I’m sure Glenn will keep his Ibanez lawsuit guitar forever - it’s really cool! Enjoy it, mate! Looking forward to seeing you play it on stage and hearing you make killer music with it! The hair thing will also never die, lol. I ❤ seeing you guys hang and do guitar stuff cause it’s always a fun watch!
As an Epiphone Sheraton owner, don't sleep on that as just "the Epiphone version of the 335." It has its own mojo, and it feels better put together than the 335 Dot "inspired by Gibson."
As a Gibson snob myself I can confirm. I started out on a epiphone ES-335 pro and now own a 59 Murphy lab ES-355. The epiphones are amazing and play great, even more so now. I played a current epiphone Sheraton and it played great. Felt not difference than the Gibson, besides the poly feel which I personally don’t like but is more than manageable. Also the pickups diffently sounded weak but for that price point it’s more than worthy to be a main guitar, especially with how well it played and how easy it was to go up and down the fretboard/bends etc. don’t believe Gibson is “better”, yes they do feel high quality etc but we’re talking 6-8K vs $500-$800 for an amazing epiphone
@@Tweed_Tone eventually I'm gonna throw in some higher end pickups but I don't have the skill to do it myself nor the money to pay an expert. Semi-hollows are tricky.
335 dot is not "inspired by Gibson" though. Dot is the line that was replaced with "inspired by Gibson". Dot sucks. But I agree with your statement, sheraton then "inspired by Gibson" then dot, is how I'd arrange it.
Burny as a guitar company can make there les paul models as close to gibson and Gibson cant do much about it trademark wise. Gibson attempted to sue burny awhile ago and the court ruled in Burny guitars favor, stating gibson waited to long to file a lawsuit against Burny for trademark agreement. The judge basically said "Guitar players know how to read and they wont be fooled by a headstock that say Burny."
I got a Burny LP last year with a Fernandes sustainer fitted from factory. It's a great sounding and playing guitar. Congratulations on your new guitar Glen.
Brilliant video! I very much enjoyed watching you guys "keepin' it real" shopping for a reasonably priced guitar. Cheers to Glen on the new guitar! I have a lot of respect for you helping out a brother get an instrument that he got to try before buying. It's refreshing to see the generosity and the act of going to local shops to purchase. Being an "old man" I might have chosen the 335...😂 and local shops were the way I grew up buying all music gear. Cheers from Canada
I didn’t set out to become a ‘Gretsch fanboy’ but I have three of them now that more or less span their total price range ($450, $800, $3800) and I love every one of them. Don’t know why they don’t get more love. They really do make some great instruments. And yeah, they will 100% shred!
Hi KDH. It's been great following your content and seeing your subscriber numbers grow. Best wishes with the band and youtube and keep bringing us great news from the guitar world!!
I can confirm. I have an epi sg classic worn with p90s and the Matt Heafy origins 7 and they are both absolutely absolutely amazing sounding and playing. Minor adjustments needed out of the box, but they were things I do on every guitar I buy. Level, crown and polish the frets if needed, adjust truss rod and put new strings on it. Then they were perfect.
This isn't to say that your other content isn't wholesome, but something about this video is just so spectacularly wholesome and fun that it brings a smile to my face 😊
I'm 65 next month. Started playing guitar when I was 10... summer of '69. I was a teen in the 70's. I had the waist long straight hair. Played an Ibanez Deluxe 59'er in white, into a 210 Traynor.. I really like watching you guys. You take me back to my youth. I still have the guitars and amps I used back in the day (plus a lot more). I still play loud. I like your playing, both of you. Enjoy yourselves guys!! Rock on gentlemen. Thanx Steve
THANK YOU.... That was driving me crazy, I couldn't think of what song that was, despite having thumbed through the entire appetite for destruction tablature book until it fell apart back when I was learning, I could not place that for some reason
nah dude bc i actually listened to w.a.l.k.e.r. last night and i straight up couldn't sleep bc spreading the disease was stuck in my head😭 y'all are absolutey killin it man keep up that good shit
I loved this video. I saw it in one sitting when it came out. I'll be unable to buy guitars for a long time now and this one does the dopamine and the comtemplation for me. Thank you and Glen for this. Also, so cool to have a friend who buys something so personal and expensive as a guitar. Good luck out there, guys!
This was fun. You guys killed it! felt like I was the one wandering round across numerous music stores trying to figure out what might be worth my while. ☺
Especially compared with the new lower budget models they pump out today. Used lawsuit era guitar was a slam-dunk choice. Get a better guitar/value used anyhow. It ain't a car, doesn't matter how many miles or dings it has.
i love how Glen is me and KDH is my mate and it all feels like a get together after years. top content as always! love your videos and the true journalist vibe you give off, keep up the good work!
Those hollow Gretschs sing. The pickups are very flexible, stylistically. I had a Gretach 2420T for a short time, and one of the first songs I played on it was Enter Sandman. It had issues though, so I returned it to the store. Issues from the store and player abuse, I'd say, not the manufacturer. The local Guitar Center is terrible. I ordered a G5222 in Ocean Turquoise from Sweetwater instead. Absolutely love it.
I would love to go into a shop and buy a guitar. Those were the days! Well, I did buy a Maybach last easter. It’d been hanging on a wall for a year, and I played it everytime I went to the store. I just had to have it.
The old man guitar comments made me think of the scene in Metalocalypse where the guys are introduced to acoustic for the first time. 😅 Also so glad you got the Burny, that would have been my first choice. A made in Japan Les Paul is just on another level.
That’d of been my pick too, if I wasn’t able to find a used Gibson in person in that price range! Those Burneys are underrated, look and play/ sound really well. Congrats to Glen! 🤘🏻🎸
The first time I came across one of these Burny guitars and looked at the headstock, I saw "Bunny" and for the life of me, to this day I cannot un-see it.
The older Burny and Greco Les Pauls are killer. I much prefer them to Gibsons. I have 3 Grecos, one Rhoads, one Sykes, and one 59 Burst. Good choice, Glen!
I have 2 Tokai's, one 1982 Greco RR65, a 1982 Burny RR model and a Bacchus, all great but the 1982 Greco RR65 and the custom order Tokai Goldtop are killer guitars that i'll NEVER sell....
We have one music store in Canada and they stock 98 percent gibson and fender. They carry only the cheapest of other brands for any modern prog / metal and improvisational jazz player.

Glen is a great guitarist. Not bad for a boomer trapped in a 20something's body 🫣
Kidding aside glad to see him show his chops.
Funny......I feel like a boomer trapped in a 20yo body..... but I'm 40.
The burny was the right pick. So cool how he just happened upon that excellent instrument. Cool stuff
SPOILAAAAARRRRR

Burny is by Gibson in Japan, I believe. So it's actually a very close model to the real deal.

These videos with you and Glen are hilarious. I like this much better than the guitar-narc stuff I’ve seen you do
proof that guitars find the player..love the channel man you guys rock
Surely, you could get a really nice Chapman for that money
“Really nice Chapman”, is there such a thing?

Chill videos of Glen just trying out different guitars is something I need in my life
I heard Lee Anderton secretly owns Glen.
Probably.. 😅😅😅
That Burny is a killer guitar! Great choice
loved the gretsch bit. love them so much cause a lot are "old-man" kinda guitars but every single one of them will shred.
I didn’t set out to become a ‘Gretsch fanboy’ but I have three of them now that more or less span their total price range ($450, $800, $3800) and I love every one of them. Don’t know why they don’t get more love. They really do make some great instruments. And yeah, they will 100% shred!
The follow-up we were all waiting for.
See you two at NAMM 😎
Love that Burny! Excellent choice... 👌
The wait is over!
I love this video, it was fun to see ya'll having fun. I also love how you are just guitar dorks like me and my friends.
Y'all
You guys are just awesome....i love it!
Hi KDH. It's been great following your content and seeing your subscriber numbers grow. Best wishes with the band and youtube and keep bringing us great news from the guitar world!!

That "Cheers!" definitely redeemed that moment, well played. And congrats on that beautiful Burny, the cherry on it is gorgeous
Japanese Les Paul copies are often more superior than their American counterparts. Congratulations, Glen on the Burny Les Paul! 😊
Not really, but it is a nice guitar for the money. Better than a Chapman ;)
Something is either superior or it's not. Nothing can be "more" superior in the same way as it can't be more better, or more bigger, or more cheaper.
Especially compared with the new lower budget models they pump out today. Used lawsuit era guitar was a slam-dunk choice. Get a better guitar/value used anyhow. It ain't a car, doesn't matter how many miles or dings it has.
im only 30 and this video takes me back to times with my best friend
what kind of nostalgic wizardry
I’m reminded of being in Music maker off Capel Street in the mid 80s. Great video. And fine playing.
i love how Glen is me and KDH is my mate and it all feels like a get together after years. top content as always! love your videos and the true journalist vibe you give off, keep up the good work!
also, we need a second channel like Dicky Dines with you and Glen, just vibing and talking funny stuff
bring in more mates from W.A.L.K.E.R. if you can!
Bro talking to himself 😂
Proffesered7169 I know dude is crazy 💀

Id like to see you guys do a competition, who can make the most in a few hours busking on Grafton st.
Not many things more fun than going store to store with a good friend trying out a bunch of guitars
600!!!!
Glad the Chanel is doing so well!!
It's honestly cool to see ya do a relaxed video. I like seeing ya happy, goofing about 😂
The 5150 combo sounded awesome!
Oooo that cheers at the end sent a shiver up my spine lol
Glen's got chops. That last 30 seconds was extremely amusing, Bosh!
The Burney is a no brainer, and it has the potential to rise in value.
Lovely video and he made a really solid choice!
That Squier at the beginning looked like a right little banger.
Great choice!

I'm happy Glen finally got his guitar but I would have had a more difficult time deciding which one to take home. That 335 was really nice too
I believe it was a toss up personally between this and the 335 as well. Those pickups beat the Burny too imo.
@@caiusmadison2996 You could almost hear Glen deflate when Keiden called it "an old man's guitar"....
Old man guitars are great, especially the haunted ones 👻
And just when I wanted to say that Glen looks like taken straight out from 70's and he could be a KISS fan, I saw he wears KISS t-shirt. xD
Wish I had mates like you, pleased Glenn finally received his gift.
Good choice!
Excellent choice on the Burny! Love those Japanese Les Pauls, have an Edwards Custom copy myself that's just insanely good.
That red tele with double black binding tho!! Smashing looking guitar..
The old man guitar comments made me think of the scene in Metalocalypse where the guys are introduced to acoustic for the first time. 😅 Also so glad you got the Burny, that would have been my first choice. A made in Japan Les Paul is just on another level.

I would love to see a KDH and Chapman guitar battle.
You shredding on that gretsch hollowbody kinda gave me like back to the future vibes lol
The moment glen started playing the Burney I knew he will not let it go it surely sounded best of the whole lot. Great choice
Good choice guys, can't go wrong with a Paul👍
The first time I came across one of these Burny guitars and looked at the headstock, I saw "Bunny" and for the life of me, to this day I cannot un-see it.
That Iconic sounds great!😈
It would have been hilarious had you gone to Andertons to get a guitar...

Glen busting out the Queen on the first one. Nice!
If he puts some matching pickup covers to match the pickguard color and back compartment covers it'll be perfect
Fun video - like the way Glenn went on feel and not what was written on the headstock :)

Really interesting and enjoyable ! Thanks !
Old mate made the RIGHT choice! That MIJ Burny will be more LIKE the Gibson than the Epi 'inspired by' range!
Great fun informational video guy's. I've got a Burny Gold Top P90's beats my Epiphone all day. Just subbed btw.
Personally I would have gone with either the Epi SG or Epi LP from the first store
Definitely
This particular dude looks cool with amber guitars: Gretsch and Sire here.
This video is not sponsored so please subscribe...(and pay for the guitar I'm supposedly buying for my mate).
That chibson was totally illigal on the headstock shape. Nice
First time in youtube history that someone picked up a hollowbody and didn't go clean first. I applaud you, Glen.
I'm glad I stayed til the end lol. Grats to Glen.
CHEERS!
Being a Kiss fan, he now needs a Super Distortion in the bridge.
I am much older than you guys, I don't play guitar (I play bass) but your content has grown on me. Subbed.
