  • Too bad Fender made an auto-tuning guitar in the 90's... Oh well, keep paying for the name Cadillac owners.

  • Smoke on the shower!! :P :D

  • All the greats played fender.. Eric clapton, van halen, jimi hendrix, brad paisly, john mayer, just to name a few.. i dont think fenders are for fags at all

  • @Aste2232 I never got the guitar company arguers. Fenders and Gibsons are best in my book. Hendrix chose Fender, Jimmy Page chose Gibson. (For the most part) I would love to own both Fender and Gibson just don't have the money yet :(

  • look at the truss rod cover close it's really a les paul studio

  • fender fags, gay deep purple fans and shit alike are just biting themselves lol

  • @Kaeralho Ask any musician if Fender is for fags, the answer will be surprising.

  • @donSparda not really

  • @Kaeralho You are the furthest thing from a musician.

  • Gibson epic fail

  • Smoooke on the waateer :D

  • Nice Shower Cap Fruit

  • First guitar that can get a virus..

  • finally a good looking robot guitar -.- the firebird is freakin ugly

  • PA PA PAA PA PA PAAPA PA PA PAAA PA PA ... hahahaha ''Smoke in the Water'' by Deep Purple xDDDD awesome riff

  • @ThunderHunter100 any one can play smoke on the water lol :D

  • @SamuelSavage777 so, then it's still an awesome riff :P

  • fender the best

  • Sigh.....

  • wtf

  • i've never played a gibson that played as good as a fender

  • @bluesBro18 Hahaha yeah right.

  • @bluesBro18 agreed

  • hahahahaha! the guys butt must be sore.the guitar did him! hahahahahahahaha...faggot

  • the ironic part is that gibson probally got sued for using a trademarked symbol

  • god i hate comments that are respontces to other comments.

  • @SmashToonsTv i hate wen people get in those like 4 page comment conversations

  • i cant belive this was a comercial...

  • gibson, dont fuck with them

  • does Fender know about this commercial?

  • hysterical

    

  • I knew this guitar was designed for good.

  • lame

  • the gibson killed him cause he used fender xdxdxd

  • is this supposed to be promoting the guitar

  • glad mine hasnt tried to do that to me yet

  • you suck

    

  • what the fuck? :D

  • that was HILARIOUS , crappy guitar though

  • @BayouBluesMan

    I own 19 guitars and it is one of the best

  • @mattsuzo haven't played one but running cables through the neck and all this gizmo ballshit is bound to affect tone , if i was gibson i'd make their research team focus more on woods , assembly techniques , glues , finish and the transfer of tone through different woods and chambers , this guitar will only be bought by bill gates and u

  • @BayouBluesMan Actually....there are no special wires or cables in the neck....the electrical signal uses the strings themselves to send the signal from the body to the tuners. All without adding weight, which is pretty remarkable. It sounds as good as any of the other Les Pauls I've owned or played, and neck is better as well. Its my fav Les Paul atm (you either Love or Hate the color), but I've been playing the 50th Anniversary SG-24 a lot more lately because its more comfortable to play

  • @MrAx3Man dude what u say makes no sense even if u used the strings as cables + - u needed 2 strings for each tuner (rotor)so u needed 12 strings lol

    I've got some life changing news for u , in the neck of yr guitar there are wires and in the body there's a battery stored. Electricity isn't sorcery  , we'r not in the middle ages.

  • @BayouBluesMan

    No...... there are no wires in the neck. The strings carry the signal from the control to the tuners....look it up. Same as fly by wire. PCM pulse codes in a car work the same way, only 1 wire needed. The battery IS stored in the body, and is charged through a regular guitar cable where its usually good for 3 to 4 months. Dont take my word for it tho....check gibsons own site if you like.....its listed there in black and white

  • @MrAx3Man u obviously have no clue of basic mechanics of things. One more time Sir, what u r talking about in yr post above is the signal from the string vibration this is sent to a cpu which will send electricity through the wires IN THE FUCKING NECK to the rotors on the headstock which will turn in order to tune the damn thing.U can't run a motor(tuners) with no freaking wires unless u poccess some kind of allien technology.

    Look up what fly by wire is in wiki , again this IS NOT SORCERY

  • @BayouBluesMan Your Wrong.....There are no wires or cable thru the neck. Signal travels thru the strings. I took the MCK out of mine to replace because it was sticking and checked all wires point to point with a multimeter when resoldering them. Use google and find out for yourself...its on Gibsons own page, as well as any other site that has people modding them back to stock, or using the tronicle parts in other guitars.

  • @MrAx3Man dude i bet u call someone to change a lamp in yr house. Your guitar 's wiring is as follows: it has six little motors in the headstock they are connected through wires in the neck to the cpu , the strings transfer their signal to the bridge where is picked up analyzed by the cpu which in turn sends electricity through the fucking wires in the neck to the headstock motors which tune the guitar. U can believe whatever the fuck u want but there r wires in the neck

  • @MrAx3Man Ignore the idiots, you are correct. There are no extra wires in a Robot Guitar neck. If BayouBluesMan had half a clue about wiring or took half a second to think about it he'd realize there is a metal truss rod in all Gibson Les Pauls that carries the ground signal to the headstock from the body. The strings carry the actual signal which is why they cant be touched while tuning.

  • HAHAHAHHAA

  • That why I would never get it .. 

  • @JakeyRhoads or maybe because he wasn't a Schecter man :)

  • i prefer burny over gibson......

  • What's with the Fender logo? I don't understand. lol

  • @axeshred The Gibson guitar just killed the Fender guy... lol

  • @purquebecois999 that was freakin awesome :D

  • Wow, his shower sucks

  • what a crap

  • Huh, putting a rare, 5,000 dollar guitar that has robot in the name near water while shaking it above a hard, wet floor. What a genius!

  • My guitar can stream netflix movies...

  • Awesome totally awesome dude . All I need is a tasty buzz some cool guitar tabs and I'm all set .

  • Comment removed

  • on the debate of gibson vs fender, i would say that i like fenders guitars better. they are way cheaper, 10,000 dollars for a les paul? i think the only thing that gibson has better than fender is that they have all the hollow body guitars. the es's, the l-5's. i think those are the only guitars worth paying over 5000 dollars for

  • wtf...

  • I LOVE FENDER ! 

  • Rape

  • what a hell? it's a real advert by gibson! i thought it was just a home video.

  • what did i just watch?

  • I prefer my old '78 Greco or my '83 Burny LP copies or my Carvin DC400 over any one of both G or F brands or my 87 red MIJ Fender strat I never paid more than $800 for any one of them : )

  • gibson is trying to kill fender. i guess Dexter would opt to kill gibson.

  • Guitars are dumb... lol

  • @beaglemanzzz or maybe you're dumb and they are incredibly smart

  • @hidragon91

    Impossible. Silly guitars cannot compete with the incredible brass of doom.

  • People argue man. But its really all just taste and opinion. I like the Stratocaster more for a shitload of reasons. The next guy might like the Les Paul more for a shitload of reasons. Its whatever youre into man. Arguing doesnt make your favorite guitar "THE BEST GUITAR YOU CAN BUY FOR ANY AMOUNT OF MONEY! PERIOD! (because im a biased cunt for names sake)" Do what you want to do man. Peace.

    -Cody Lee Meece

  • he's become guitar man! he has guitar sensas and can shoot guitars at people!

  • OKAY TO ALL THE FENDER LOVERS you do realize leo fender was over with the strats and teles in the 50s and went on to found musicman and is making some badass guitars that can buttrape a 3000 'fender' or a 4000 gibson.... but all of the guitars roll in the 2000 range >.> epiphone for me...

  • I hate this, whats about: feel your guitar, be 'one' with your guitar, let your souls combine and tune it for christ sake with your hands...

    ^^

  • Gibson is the Rolex or Mercedes of guitars, you pay for quality, then you pay a shitload extra for the name.

  • next is a guitar that can play itself

  • HAHAHA oh my good wtf

  • Oh please. theres no way it can be totally accurate.

  • gibson beats fender?yeah right i admit that i would prefer a sg instead of a strat but what i know is that the guys at fender would never be dumb enough to produce something so expensive to manufacture,so useless and minor

  • les pauls and tele's for life

  • fantastica

  • Stratocasters live forever ! 

  • wats the name of the song hes singing

  • @RIPTOTHEJOSH04 Smoke on the water by deep purple

  • now that's just silly Fender shouldn't be scared now if that was a vintage les paul then it would be a different story

  • hahaha i laughed my ass of, my guitar teacher was making a guitar that tuned itself like 12 years ago, it worked, but he didn't give a fuck, because he didn't like the guitar anymore so he sold it,

  • wtf do you need auto tuning for after at least 2 years lol

  • Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Robot Les Paul Rules!!!!

  • Oh no... the epic Fender vs Gibson debate once again. After all, it's like comparing apples and oranges... some people prefer the apples, others the oranges, so at the end of the day, it's only about personal taste.

  • gibson beats fender?not only theyre equal companies,but also this system is shit tuning a guitar takes like 1 minute for the average guitarist and for experienced players less than 45 seconds auto tuning is no big deal if i get a gibson im gonna do it for the sound,the feel and the tone not for accesories and shit

  • wow... really just a low budget commercial..

  • ITS THE GIBSON APPOCALYPSE!!!! D:

  • can the robot time travel like the terminator? Can It make me coffee?

    Yeah if it cant do it I aint buyin it.

  • wtf they cant be allowed to do that, surely

  • Gibson means quality. I pay for quality.

  • You could get a quality Ibanez at less than half the price of a Gibson

  • Love my Strat, and I love my 335. Horses for courses, just enjoy. ;-)

  • If Gibson wants to save their company, they need to listen to the real hard working professional musician. Bring back the long neck tenon joint in all the guitars. Lower the outrageous prices. I recently spoke to a Gibson rep. He told me their guitars were made for those who could afford one. That leaves out mostly all pro musicians, I said. He agreed with me. Give me a month at Gibson and things would change dramatically for the better. First thing I would do is fire that rep and more!

  • I've been playing guitar since 1962. I haven't forgotten how to tune my guitar and I'm absolutely positive I don't need the robot system to tune my guitar for me. How effin embarassing !! When Gibson guitar making reached the 50's, they were making their best pieces. Just another perfect example of why Gibson gets in financial trouble. You would think that their own company history would teach them. They hire these dumb ass engineers that need to justify their jobs and ruin the brand name. :)

  • Sucks.

  • thats a good slap in the face to fender

  • Wow this is kind of pathetic. Like GIbson is 'killing' fender with their revolutionary new design. Fact of the matter is that the whole robot guitar is just a fancy gadget, it's for people who are too spoiled and lazy (and probably tone deaf) to tune the guitar themselves. I spend 30 seconds tuning my guitar, and that's much better than paying a 1000 extra dollars extra. I'll stick with my Ibanez, and even If I had to choose I'd say Fender, cause IMO Gibson is and has always been overpriced

  • very funny!

  • all the people commenting saying this is for people who can't play...You are an idiot. all this does is help save alot of time in the process of tuning. Think about live performances. You never need to carry multiple guitars in different tunings...People these days -.-

  • People. It's tuning. Calm the fuck down and buy the guitar if you want to go to drop C in a couple seconds or stfu and stop watching

  • Too fucking awesome.

  • Oh no.... Why God why... They've finally sealed the deal and started the process of getting rid of the classics...

  • @Rangerhalt1 no they havn't?... where the hell did you hear this from?

  • @MrJesus666 If this guitar takes off nobody will buy the original ones anymore. They'll start making different kinds of metal guitars. And the original guitars will become less and less popular until they dwindle down into nothing.

  • @Rangerhalt1 i spose that is true... hopefully not but the 2010 standerd les paul is a robot guitar as well.. the body's are still made of maple though so it's only the tuners. still i'd rather keep my gibson les paul studio then get a robot guitar

  • @MrJesus666 You and me both. But there's some pretty stupid people out there. :P

  • Idiotity....this robot-tune kills the soul out from the gibson...the gibson les paul is the best guitar...why didd they destroyed everything what they have done?...The music is about soul, knowledge, feeling...not about robo-techniques...There's nothing better than an original USA-made gibson les paul from the 60-80's

  • lol at 0:35 u can see his hand moving it

  • i love both fender and gibson (mostly fender) :)

  • @TheMrDudeWTF

    Schecter is even better...

    it still has weird names(Hellraiser, Omen, demon ect)

    but the shapes are awesome!

  • omg guitars will end up fucking your girlfriend for you omg... i personally would hate to have a stupid robot to tune my les paul!

  • hahaha nice

  • ...some ppl are thinking way out side of the box. The guitar killed the guy and blamed it on Fender. It was kinda funny.

  • PWND

  • Man, that tuning system is like buying a shit expensive hotdog which you could have made yourself for free .....

  • @SaintedAttHack well said my friend

  • @aids696969 x)

  • the guy that is singing symbolyses the fender quitar

  • ahahah, I love this

  • i love gibson but $1,000 dollar fender = $5,000 Gibson, both with the same quality. you pay for unnecessary accessories and the gibson name. I own a les paul and love it but i still think i was only paying for the name.

  • @jh733 you can get a gibson les paul raw power for about $1000

  • @jh733 Thats why u just go for a epiphone

  • @jh733 prejudice

  • @jh733 srry dude, but i have got a 675€ gibson and it's better than my neigbours

    2 000€ fender telecaster ;)

  • @jh733 i think they sound different, some people go for gibson, some for the sound of a fender. they are not "the same" at all.

  • @jh733 Their good but in a different way.

    What I guess we all musicians agree is that Justin Bieber sucks.

  • @ps3fanforever amen

  • @ps3fanforever hahahaahhaha WORD

  • @jh733 lol, you replied a year later xD

  • @jh733 absolutely right

  • @jh733 Fender < Gibson.

  • @jh733 are you kidding? you must have a crappy les paul cuz my les paul is 100 times the guitar as my custom shop strat

  • @jh733 The only Gibsons that cost 5k are the limited edition ones, Fenders are sweet but go out and buy a standard Les Paul, it'll set you back a little more than a Fender, but you get WWWAAAAAAY more than what you paid for.

    The robot shlock is for tech head 13 years olds with rich parents, but you have to admit, when it comes to a solid body guitar, you can't really aim higher than a Les Paul.

  • @jh733 bullshit, € 700 gibson = € 1000 fender

  • @MYEYESONECONOMY nah jh733 is right, certainly more right than you anyway

  • @mrciaran96 and you are one to talk?

  • @MYEYESONECONOMY well yes i am, anyone has a right to decide whether they prefer fender or gibson

  • keep pressing 0:28

  • @jh733 Gibsons are handmade and they have many lacquer layers so they can last longer

  • for lazy ppl

  • @jh733 i believe the quality on Gibson is better

  • i saw the movie where Gibson Rickenbacker kicks Fender Tremelo in the chest and Fender ends up impaled on a meat hook and died.Fender then became a god for owning the plague.

  • i saw the movie where gibson rickenbacker kicked fender tremelo in the chest and fender ended up impaled on a meat hook and died.

  • Its all about preference. Gibson isnt all worth it's price. A decent priced 300-500$ Fender stratocaster pretty much beats the $1100 Gibson Les Paul Studio. Again. Its all about your playing and preference.

    For blues, fender telecaster. For metal, gibson SG

  • You prefer a gibson sg for metal?

    I'd rather use my SG for blues and hardrock

    (like acdc or van halen style songs), and my tele for both...

    Not that I ever use my tele for metal, I have a Dean Dime USA razorback ^^

  • that rather depends on whos playing them

  • Fender Killer? Hardly. The robot guitar isn't new tech, Transperformance systems and similar systems have been around long before. Hell, Fender themselves teamed up with Roland to make the Fender VG strat which has some basic "auto-tuning". Regardless, even if Gibson had the best auto-tuning system in the world, it doesn't negate the fact that the overall design of their severely overpriced guitars are utter shit, both ergonomically and durability-wise.

  • @Aguy413 my 1985 (pre historic) 57 gold top Les Paul is 100 times any fender

  • i can see why hes a victim of gibson... 0:41

  • GUIBSON KILLS FENDER

  • Does your Gibson Robot really murder people?  If so, I'll stick with my V and call it even. :D

  • its 7

    7 december

  • why is there painted the F of fender on his hand??? (at the end...)

  • Gibson needs to get back down to earth and go back to how gibsons should be made... They are ruining their rep by building robot guitars and the holy V and all that other stuff. thats why prices go up! they make less models of the real gibson. Just make a real gibson and set the price back. swear they would get more money that way anyway...

  • @MetallicA4658 they havn't even produced the freaking 2010 les paul standard. WTF

  • cause of guitars like these! it will be super expensive for no reason when/if they make one.

  • @MetallicA4658 i would love to have a standard les paul. thats most likely not gonna happen soon cause its 3000 bucks.

  • standard is around 1,200 the custom is 3,000

  • @MetallicA4658 here the standard is about 4,000... and fender is about 1,000 (you know, is ironic tha an epiphone les paul standard costs the same than a Fender strat...)

  • @MetallicA4658 yeah a les paul junior shouldnt be so pricey, didnt they used to be like dirt cheap back in the day... since they were a student model. gibson guitars are way too pricey

  • yea. they are like 800-900 for a well built one.

    for one that doesnt pass by gibsons inspectors (the "Special" model) it goes dirt cheap. but alot of things are wrong or end up going wrong later on. i just want my gibson explorer and not feel like im getting robbed at gunpoint at the store

  • 'standard' should be pretty cheap, as it is in fact called standard, customs i can forgive for being pricey. the specials shouldn't really exist as your better off with epiphones for that quality.

    it would be nice to have explorers and V's and for them to not be used to make 80's hair metal guitars with. kahler bridges and tribal patterns are not suitable for a lot of people

  • the problem with gibson is that if it isnt a custom it isnt really good. there is always something that messes up on it that will need fixing. gibson is just a good investment to have.

  • @mickyhodge a 1960 Les Paul Junior cost $130, That would be about $ 750 today

  • E335 is use to record smoke on the water!

  • Lol fail

  • The Strat is a much more versatile guitar

  • @Krazytat2 for each cind of musick you need a other guitar

  • That was lame...building a self tuning guitar doesn't mean there are no Fenders needed. You cant forget the heritage of the Fender. different guitars for different styles.

  • chode!!

  • chode!!!
