Collings "290" Les Paul style with Dumble Overdrive Special Amp

[maxwellph]

More more more! Great playing. What is your opinion of the P 90s? How do they compare to HB's? My band does some Zep, etc., and I lke the fat Les Paul sound with HB's for those numbers, but I want a 290 with the right arm contour (they off it for a nominal up charge).

[cy3es1]

Great sound. Great playing. I love your videos.

[thewretchedrod]

hola! one question: sonically, what is the difference between a humbucker and a P-90?? i mean, wich one will soun fatter and dirtyer..? thank you!

[JD0x0]

@thewretchedrod p90 is a single coil humbucker uses two single coils in series. It all depends on the specs but usually the humbuckers sound fatter and dirtier. But i have telecaster pickups that sound fatter than PAF humbuckers, like i said it depends on the specs

[dpark918]

how much were the p90s?

[Bivouac21]

This is not a Collings les paul...this is a 290.

[GregsGuitars]

thanks for the correction. I did an update

[MinningAround]

Your Fender sounds much better.

[colderbythelake]

Oh man...is that the epitomy of tone!

[mourningleaves]

I've always thought Dumbles sound kinda thin and cheesy. Very eighties soft rock... Kinda like this clip..... Great playing, but boring (**to me**) tone...

[JD0x0]

@mourningleaves checkout my videos. Even with a tele it sounds fat. Greg likes a brighter tone and the alnico blue speakers which have alot of upper mids and highs and not so much bass.

[fatharmonix]

idk if its the guitar or amp (probly guitar) but its too twangy for me

[JD0x0]

@fatharmonix I dont hear twang i hear brightness. And most of it is coming from the alnico blue speakers. I dont like them with these amps, IMO D style amps prefer warmer sounding speakers

[fatharmonix]

@JD0x0 then should i say compression? hey im trying to hear it through the computer, it would be much diff in person anyways lol

[guitar1994player]

do you know where you can get a dumble clone that's not very expensive?

[Gibson2471]

you mean like a les paul copy? epiphone

[guitar1994player]

no like a copy of that amp

[kerranz]

Check the Ceriatone site. Overtone Special is the one for Dumble-iciousness.

There are demos on YouTube, sounds great.

Two guys to check...MarinBlues and SheetsofSound.

[zepled112]

fuchs ods, Bludotone, and schroeder will make it custom for you

[joshuadstill]

sounds beautiful

[joshuadstill]

do I spot a dumble???

[GregsGuitars]

yes it is the Dumble ODS 100 Amp

[fretboarder]

how do these collins guitars compare to the gibson les pauls the vos guitars?? cheers..

[Rich915]

Collings usually supplies 'Jason Lollars' pickups in his guitars. Lollar makes a great repro of a P-90!

[GregsGuitars]

Yes, they are Lollars inside!

[oathseeker172]

if i wanted to find a song like the one you were playing, what kind of genre or band would i look for? i am an intermediate guitar player opening up to different genres of music.

Thanks :]

[GregsGuitars]

Hi, just check my latest cd "Blue In Red" for more stuff like this. It's a mixture of Blues, R&B, Jazz - all instrumental with my Band. If you in the USA you find Gregor Hilden CDs at CDBaby

[DEADHAWK076]

are those Gibson P-90s? Or off-brands. I heard Fralin's P-90s are top notch and wondered which ones u were using?

[ThePittstructor]

omg thats such a beutiful tone, u would expect it to be crunchier coming out of a lp, but somehow it pulls it off, is that a chambered?

[GregsGuitars]

Thanks. No it is a non-chambered solidbody

[giantsown10]

i didn't know p90s could pull that off. i thought they were just distortion pickups. can they do blues too?

[GregsGuitars]

Shure they can! Very bluesy!

[vsnoise]

i think so too

[pingo775]

u r a god. Nice guitar gotta get me one of those puppies. Great tone and playing throughout. Excellent
