  • Thanks for sharing this:) no wonder reissue have better sustain because of the neck joint:) i just bought 58 les paul VOS and i luv it!

  • Thanks for sharing the info. I didn't know exactly what they meant with long vs short tenon, but now I do.  Thanks.

  • ah! goofywilly its all about shisterism.and the money.

  • Am i the only one that noticed the fact that the historic neck was made of a much lighter coloured mahogany, much like the african mahogany they used back in the day. I med that makes a difference too...

  • Hi - I have a Les Paul Custom custom Shop model from year 2000. It is in an Historic case. Serial number is CS 0232. I have asked Gibson for information etc but they are useless. Can you say if my guitar is a Historic model and if so what year is it based on?

  • cool, so which one is better??? or what are the character of each???

  • normally the longer neck tennon gives you more sustain and neckstrength, but the other ones are not exactly 'bad' or something

  • PLEASE make a video with the right Les Paul Custom :D!!!

  • The long tenon neck of the reissues les pauls increase the sustain.

  • What the fuck!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why cant these "wizards" just make an

    exact copy of the '59'!!???!!!

    Why do people have to change

    shit??!!??

  • thats why you buy a historic les paul instead of a new one, why i agree that the long neck tenon's are better, its pretty much impossible to tell the difference in sound between the 2. the major problem with the new gibsons is all the less pauls besides the historic's and the custom shop models the les pauls are either chambered or have weight relieve holes in them.

  • he looks like a fucking psyco at the end

  • wood will affect the tone much more than the pickups the overall wood constistency of the instrument makes all the difference

  • just interesting

  • you tell him dude

  • actually early 70's les pauls tenons ended right at the edge of the neck pickup cavity but it doesnt really matter in the end because once its glued its basically one piece of wood...the hell with Gibsons stupid gimmicks to rip people off.

  • I've got a great sounding stock '77 Les Paul Custom. It has a short neck tenon, volute, 1 piece body, 3 piece maple neck and no lightness cavities. And you know what: the audience doesn't give a SHIT!! I love it!

  • do you know which of these necks The Heritage use?

  • Thank you for the video.

  • YAY I HAVE A VOS SG STD thank the lord dude..

  • where can i get a gibson neck?

  • ....buy a gibson around $3000 then smash it there you would have the neck....if you didn't snap the neck in half already lol....

    jk

  • lmao

  • I have a 57 and its has GODZILLA TONE ... thick neck ... and the worst fretboard Ive ever seen on a gibson ... but what a tone mmmnnnnn

  • I also have a 58 vos in ice tea,a TONAL MONSTER,save your money and buy a vos well worth the extra money...

  • Yes " more wood to wood connection" and loads more sustain ( and no lightness cavities drilled in the body) That's why the VOS re-issues and the Historic original Les Pauls sound so much better than the modern guitars

  • Of course and this is my Guitar my friend and i tell you ,i love my Gibson '58 V.O.S. ,you dont need nothing more

  • Haven't tried one of these 58s. I assume that you get along fine with the larger 58 neck otherwise you wouldn't love it so much. I suppose you get used to most necks after playing them awhile. I worried that my 54 Strat reissue with the "Clapton" V neck would be a handfull at first, now I love it.

    The 58 is so much better value than a 59 and who needs a flamed top, after all only about 10% of the original "Burst" had them.

  • I've got a 58 VOS, and I LOVE THAT NECK! It's not only that "you get used to it" but that you come to prefer it.

  • VOS have the longer end this guy talks about right?

  • yea

  • Hand made man!!!! that is many work

  • this is "the" difference!
