betts toler les paul on a peter green classic

[Pazak68]

World Keep On Turning. Great sound, great guitar, great playing.

[dudewheresmy6string]

I reckon money has nothing to do with it.I spent many a saturday afternoon in guitar shops before i found my dream guitar.A Japanese Tokai that totally blew me away.No chambers,just solid mahogany and a thick 59 neck.Only problem,it was pink quilt.I had it resprayed in gibson original gold and all for less than 800 pounds.

It eats alive any other guitar ive tried,simply because it obsviously got the best part of the tree.No one should buy guitars on the net,get out on foot.

@dudewheresmy6string

it all comes down to the old phrase................." if you cant hear the difference dont pay the difference"

[gangtwanger]

As Carlos Santana so-eloquently put it, "great guitar-playing is all about soulfulness, sincerity, and simplicity. If you have those things, you pretty-much have a 4-star restaurant". And you have it, my friend. Nice tone. I'm actually getting similar tone out of a Dean Evo SS flame-top with Duncan Seth Lover p/u's. It has better sound and sustain than modern Gibsons and a Honduras mahogany body just like Les Pauls made prior to 1974 (when Gibson began using cheaper, heavier African mahogany).

[STORYTASTIC]

its interesting noone is commenting on the fact that his simple equipement is worth about300 to 500 thousand dollars....depending on our amazing economy!

[longandmcquade]

@STORYTASTIC the reason that gear is worth so much is BECAUSE it sounds like that ... If the prices were reasonable everyone would want that rig ... driving the prices back up

Unfortunately people like SLASH and Billy Gibbons

can pay more for this kind of gear than you or I

[STORYTASTIC]

@longandmcquade Oh I know..I am a pro guitarist and you are absolutely right!!! amazing equipement is worth alot of money but its all relative..I am getting a beautiful Murphy aged 59 paul for 8 thousand dollars it sounds amazing...but its dirt cheap next to the real deal at 300 grand..lol its funny! cheers

[baseballnolie34]

Wow, that's a fantastic sound.

[adam10603]

can anyone tell me what mic is that at the cab ?

[adam10603]

wow. what a great marshall sound from 0:45

[JimiRayYng]

Sweet, Sweet Tone Man !!!

[Leeguitarbassviolin]

The front of the head looks like a JTM45/100 is it or is it the 30 watt model?

[texascannonball]

it is the normal jtm45 (30 watt i think)

[AndyBaylor]

That sounds excellent!

[fretboarder]

sorry for my ignorance but whats the betts toler les paul??

[texascannonball]

its a goldtop les paul owned by dickie betts that was stripped and refinished as a burst then sold/given to dan toler

[Kitarist88]

what is he using for reverb

[texascannonball]

reverb was added in the studio after mixdown

[MrBb4848]

I agree...the cab is very important. I have a few older Marshall JTM 45's with the matching cabs and they all sound great !!

[deadbeatdad]

The cab has as much to do with the tone as the other components....trust me on this. I have a lot of old Marshalls and cabs...a nice basketweave will make a mediocre Marshall sound better and a newer Marshall cab will make a nice old JTM45 sound mediocre. Nice combo here....really great!

[texascannonball]

i couldnt agree more......... i bought a 1966 pinstripe 4 x 12 cab and it added so much dry woody tone.

The cabs are often overlooked but are just as improtant as the amp head itself if not more so

[deadbeatdad]

I wont play anything else. Once you've played the best, forget the rest is what I say.....there is just something about that era from '66-'71 cabs that are magic. I own them with 15s, 20s, 25s, 30s and I even had one with newer 80 watters and they all sound great...it's not the speakers...its the cabs! If you ever want to sell your pinstripe, let me know!

[texascannonball]

the one in the video and my 1966 are both loaded with the original 20 watt celestions.

about selling the pinstripe i will definitely let you know

[vloret]

That will be awesome for you to have a Bullitt Fat Vintage plug between your guitar and 66

[yahoochiewatchie]

normal jtm45? thats a jtm45/100 with kt66 valves..you'd hear it a mile away...i have one if you want to check out my vids

[texascannonball]

I can guarantee its a normal jtm45 with kt66 valves..........trust me i would know

[Fsharpm7]

It's a jtm45 pa, not a 45/100. Udo and others familiar with that amp helped me extensively when I was building a clone of it. I've seen the guts of that amp, almost bone stock jtm45 pa circuit.

[BartezRocks]

Awesome tone, this is the real deal!

[leftystrat62]

Does anybody know what Peter Green tune he is playing?

[texascannonball]

its called world keeps on turnin

[leftystrat62]

I'm just sitting infront of my computer right now learnig it-thanks. I think I might of asked you this before ,but are you Betts? I sincerely like listening to him play more than anyone on youtube. He's got that KOSS thing going on:less is more with killer tone. I only wish he had a cd out.

[texascannonball]

no im not him

i just like this guys clips they sound superb to me

[MarshallAmpMan]

Thanks much!!

[MarshallAmpMan]

what volume were you playing at man? <--say with a scottish accent.

seriously, is that a JTM45/100 watt or the JTM45 30 watt? Great tone...the Tone of Tones

[texascannonball]

normal jtm 45 30watt with volume at 7/8

[TGF87]

Oh man - That amp totally warrants a nice strat!

[chuck752]

great tone

[D4ng3rboy]

hes so into it hahaha... hes good though

[freepatriot]

I want to hear the neck pickup ...

[Wooodstock69]

Me too !

Love and peace

[johnbeloe]

what song is that??

[BluesRockRevival]

i think its world keep on turning. theres a good video of it on here, check it out, im pretty sure thats it.

[valentin80]

Green used Matamp mainly... anyway your sound is great.

[mrcali68]

Now that's tone! Amazing.

[61LPSG]

bigb934, It's Dickey Betts' old LP Goldtop. It was refinished years ago to replicate a Burst. I forget what year it is.

[bigb934]

what gibson model is it?

of course a les paul but which one vintage or new ??

[texascannonball]

its definately vintage

[schenker69]

Killer tone

[STEVEFINNERTY]

nice

[fuzzingaround]

I agree

[livewireblanco]

Is there any possible way you could send me the whole session or tell me where they are located. This clip is just too awesome to tease with.

[laokoon59]

Yes I can do if you give me you're address. Best Regards

Udo

[adrian480]

awesome sound and awesome solo work

[DangerousBastard]

Good stuff!

[crossroader]

What a tease! I'd have loved to have heard more!

[mynameismrjohn]

i think i know why he has that look on his face: in "gittarre & bass", a german guitar magazine he writes for, he said that the frets on the guitar are pretty worn and the guitar was nearly unable to play for him

oh, by the way: did you know that this guitar was dickey betts (allman brothers band) original guitar?

[texascannonball]

I speak to the guy occasionally so i know about the guitar and the amp (its actaully described as the betts toler burst in my description

They both sound fantastic

[Fibson86]

Absolutely Great Sound!

Love Gibsonvs. Marshall!

[texascannonball]

firstly the guy playing isnt me he is someone who writes for a german magazine and gets to play some cool guitars

You are correct he turns the amp up full and controls the volume and tone using the guitars own controls

[JohnFirst70s]

That was great! And if you want to change the sound from clean to overdriven you just use your volume knob?
